Happy New Year Guys!. It is 2006. 6 more months to Germany 2006!

Went to CA for dinner yesterday, sat there for a straight 4 hours, after that we had some chilling out at Suntec’s City Fountain Of Wealth before proceeding to Esplanade to see the fireworks.

We were at Esplanade at about 11.30pm, and the whole place is really packed with people. When we where there, they just nice off the street lamps and the place is dark, then waited for about 11.59pm before the 1st firework was fired up in the sky and the crowd scream. The whole fireworks display lasted exactly 10 minutes and the last finale being spamming of fireworks, is like you got 30 rounds of ammo left and you have to emptied it within a few seconds.

7 Months, 6 Days / 218 Days to ORD.

I am going to love 2006
