SFF 2006

wow.. it's almost a week after the end of the fireworks festival and here i am deciding to blog about it.. well, better late than never? =p

all the shows were great.. it's always a wonder for us deprived Singaporeans (read below to understand) to watch the beautiful lights to explode and form pretty shapes before our eyes.. i missed the show by new caledonia! but other than that.. i went for all the other fireworks displays..

out of 3 of the displays that i went to, i guess i liked the display by france the best.. that might be because i didn't take any pictures/videos and had all the freedom to admire the fireworks.. the final part of the display by france was gold themed.. it was just so pleasing to the eyes.. that was a good day =p

ok.. moving on with life, i was at my uncle's funeral just now.. well, met this old lady from china who is a retired teacher.. my aunt's good friend/neighbour.. she was so well learned.. rather interesting to talk to someone like her.. you get lots of interesting facts/ways of thinking from her.. and everything is just so random and carefree.. a good person to talk to.. no wonder my aunt likes her.. =p

well, she said that in china, they set off fireworks and firecrackers almost anywhere anytime anyday.. so she finds it quite amusing when her son-in-law offers to bring her along to firecrackers/fireworks displays.. she finds it even more amusing when she sees the crowd a firework/firecracker display can generate.. what a mockery eh? we are so deprived.. =p for safety reasons though.. what to do.. =/
