Singapore F1, first night race
Sep 21st
Not sure whether it’s a good idea… Yeah, I guess it’s a cash cow for the organizers but for the common CBD commuters, it’s gonna be a week-long annoyance. I would have bought tickets to the Singtel Singapore Grand Prix, however, due to high cost and to the fact that it’s going to be at night, I am not willing to shell out $$$ for it.

Singapore — January 22, 2009
flying in an a380
Apr 1st
I have rebooked my flight two days in advanced. To top it all off, I booked the first flight out of Sydney to Singapore. It this is on an A380 flight. I really don’t expect a totally experience but flying on history’s biggest passenger aircraft is a totally different experience altogether. I have always preferred an aisle seat, but this time, I’d take window. Just this instance alone. It’s a double excitement for me. I have abbreviated my flight home by two days and its on A380. w00t!
