back in office, lunched & left for Comat-ing with WP & WT *YaWns* & this marks the second part of my programme for the day. 3 of us sat through the preview lesson on MS Outlook by Syed. not bad though, learnt so much about MS Outlook which i never know there are so many functionalities! (AJ: thanks Syed for the preview!) this whole preview ended at 1745 hr, had a short debrief & left Comat at 1815 hr.

after that, went family dinner at Singapore Flyer - Seafood Paradise. dinner appointment is at 2015 hr & the time was only 1815 hr. still early & waiting for bear bear to come pick me up (AJ: well, way to go lo... still have to wait) walked around Amara Hotel, nothing much. hence, decided to try to make my way to Singapore Flyer! stepped out of Amara Hotel, looked around for directions heading Singapore Flyer *lost* =P haven't been taking public transport especially buses for ages!!! *scary* so afraid i will lose my way... well, took out my courage to take the first step... finding my way to the bus stop & boarded a bus! *LOL* alighted opposite Esplanade.. now now~ how to make my way to Singapore Flyer?! *argh* tried my luck by walking. it was a looooooooooong walk from Esplanade! (AJ: well, i really have no idea where Singapore Flyer is!) i walked & walked... enjoyed the cool breeze & scenary. looked back at the distance i have covered, it was really FAR!!! yet i did not feel tired. (AJ: good stamina eh?) =)



it was really far!
hmm... isn't Singapore beautiful at night?



at last! i found it!


at last! after a looooooong walk, i REACHED! it was still early though. walked around Singapore Flyer & took some photographs while waiting for them...
