December...

|
I was so excited that we have 3 days of Public Holiday back here in Malaysia. Yes, i wouldn't care whether its public holiday or not previously, but now it does matter to me because i do not have to work and i'll have a long weekend.

December 25th is CHRISTMAS DAY.... :D Again back to old old time, there is a group of church member travel around the town to sing song. Christmas song... I remember it goes like, We wish you a Merry Christmas, X3 repetition and a Happy New Year :D hahaha....



December also mark the last month of the year.... Overall, in the years of 2008 is like taking a ride of roller coaster. *Superman ride at Movieworld* I'll make a summary on the last day of the month, Dec 31, 08.

Exactly 2 months before December 25th. I saw Christmas tree all around the Singapore shopping complex. Vivo, Taka, Paragon, Atria, everywhere..... Decorated with their best effort. I was like, is it too early to set up the Christmas tree? So kiasu- typical Sg culture, undeniable :S I was told that all the shopping complex compete to put up the best decorated Christmas tree. They will be awarded and the reputation of the Shopping center will gain fame if they manage to win in this competition :S (quote from the no shame Sg-rean). I Doubt that.

Christmas Tree @ Takashimaya.


Close up.



This is taken at Orchard Road. They are decorating the Christmas tree outside shopping center :S Last time i used to think that Singapore is the best place to celebrate Christmas because of the street decoration and the lighting effect. Indeed it is a very nice place to visit during Christmas BUT the nightmare comes when you have to squeeze around just to walk from Tangs to Lucky Plaza. Bare in mind Singapore lowest temperature is around 26°C. A temperature that will make u sweat even when you are standing still. Ok perhaps the weather is not that bad, BUT the heat that generated from Human is enough to cause global warming. hehe.... Biology lesson taught me that people do produce heat to keep themselves warm. Of course a person will not make any difference, but when you have thousand of people around the same street (Orchard Road), I can feel the HEAT! :)



This is the amount of people crossing the road when the pedestrian traffic light turn green. I am pretty sure, during December 25th the amount of people will Quadruple. I am not kidding. :D In just 5 minutes this is what you will see. Just imagine how will it be in the Shopping complex? I can't imagine what if i fell down in the middle of road. Probably i will be stepped until flatten on the ground. So Ladies, remember not to wear high heels if you have the intention to celebrate your Christmas day @ Orchard Road on 25th December. Hahahaha.... Don't think on the beauty side only, remember safety also very important. :D


Takashimaya. Faint.
