went for the Photog Amazing Race with SAJC today.. basically its sorta exchange programme between NY and SA photographic society.. gonna hold an exhibition together I heard, so why not get to know each other first?
reached Potong Pasir Mrt slightly past 8, so went to walk around to look for batteries.. guess what, Potong Pasir doesn't have 7-11.. or at least in that area I walked around in.. anyway, the rest of the people came and we were lead to SA.. 3rd time stepping foot onto the campus, doesn't seem so alien any more..
tried my hands on some of the school's dSLRs.. quite cool, lots more functions.. my S2 seemed rather light after handling the dSLRs.. were split into groups after the briefing.. Olivia, Xin Li from NY and Edith, Vanessa, Shobah, Matthew from SA were in my group.. we were given some clues and were suppose to go to the various locations around Clarke Quay and Chinatown area and take some pics..
my group wasn't like all out to win this race.. more like to have fun and make new friends at the same time.. and thats what we did..


Ah.. I'm shot..
chatted along the way to our various checkpoints.. the SA people were quite suprised when I told them I got 9 and didn't get in.. they said I'm just plain unlucky I guess..
didn't really take much shots.. most of the shots were taken by Xin Li, the guy with the cam in the above pic.. on to more pics..


don't think I need to tell you what's his name right?



"Spitting is allowed here, perpetually"
if we weren't wearing half-u, we'll probably look like tourists.. a group of people with cams in the "tourist-ish" part of town, snapping away.. there was also a wedding couple having their photo shoot as we were crossing back across Cavenagh Bridge... wished them congrats as we walked past.. hmm.. if I had the money, I'll probably go to Europe or something for my wedding photo shoot.. the scenary there much nicer, not to mention the cooler weather..


"Before Duck Tours, there was..."
the River Taxi.. last time I've been on a river taxi was like in pri sch.. we were suppose to go to Chinatown area next, but since most of the checkpoints are in Clarke Quay and we've completed all and only 3 or 4 in Chinatown, might as well go back and be the first.. hahaa..
went back to SA and had tau huay while waiting for the rest of the teams to come back.. came in overall 4th.. no difference whether you come in 1st or last lor, the prizes still the same.. potatoe chips.. hahaa..


group pic..
was a rather impromtu pic.. anyway, think the most valuble things I got out of this event weren't the nice pics, but the new friends I've made..
in contrast to that, met my old friends from band after that.. went to Orchard Cineleisure to watch Ice Age 2.. played pool with Kenneth before the movie started.. kept hitting the cue ball into the pocket then the target ball like so close to the edge.. think it gotta do with today being April Fools Day or something.. haha..
the movie was quite nice.. more drama than the original Ice Age.. but doesn't feel like a sequel to Ice Age if you ask me.. probably due to the fact that it was done by Blue Sky Studios rather than Dreamworks..
other than my wallet being lighter at the end of the day, it was a great saturday spent..
