My 1st F1 experience
Brian got free ticket to the practice sessions on Friday..and it is really an eye-opener for the two of us!
The race cars are SO FAST that people have difficulties trying to catch them with the normal camera... Its a good thing that they need to race for more den just 1 round.. so there is ample chances to try to take photograph es..hehehe..
Our tickets are for the Bay Grandstand seats.. but we decided to walk around the circuit for the 2nd Practice Session instead of staying at the Grandstand..
Got a bad experience with the crowd control at the Bay Grandstand thou.. when they break after the 1st Practice Session.. With 32,000 people for that Grandstand, the authorities should have look into having a few exits for Better Crowd Control.. It was really a bad jam during the break.. =( Which is one of the reason we didn't went back to the Grandstand..
The good thing about the Grandstand is that it has large TV screen to see the whole race event... whereas for walkabout area, there were no screens at all.. However walkabout area allow you to see the cars closer up when they race passed!
The F1 cars are DEAFENING!!! Lucky my boss gave me an ear plug on Friday..But poor Brian got to suffer the full impact of the deafening roar of the cars when they raced past.. =P Nevertheless, there is something about the sound of the F1 cars that excites people.. Brian wasn't that interested in the F1 race until we reached the race venue and heard the cars.. hahaha!
Took the below video with my hp camera (when my camera battery die on me.. urgh!)while at one of the walk about area.. they are THAT fast!
Caught the Qualifying and Final race at Brian's place.. and the Final race is really quite exciting!

Random Musings
Boss will be away for the whole of next week...
I really do feel like taking some time off to go somewhere.... esp since Brian is gg to start work soon... which also mean no vaction for awhile too..
but it seem too short a time frame to plan anything good... :(
I think I'm qualified to be a Coach Potato... lol!

Update on Saturday Movie Screening
Woke up to a sunny day on Saturday! Although there was a bout of heavy downpour in the afternoon.. the sky did cleared up around 5 plus...which is just in time for the open air screening!
Maybe the chanting & praying really works..! hehehe!
We reached Fort Canning around 6... and there was already super long queue in front of the entrance... @_@
Its lucky that the soil, although still wet, wasn't very muddy yet.. so the rain haven done much damage.. Oh..and Jenny and her friend bought enough snacks to open a mini snackstall.. Hahaa! Of course we did not managed to finish all that snacks.. =p
Anyway I was quite disappointed with the freebies and the movies.. first of all.. No Subtitles.. for both movies! =( very hard to make out what the movie characters were talking about.. I think the sound system were not good either.. =( And the movies were not as nice as I thought it will be.. The free topshop bags were not as nice as I imagined it to be too.. Booo!
But well...it is still a nice experience to watch movies under the star.. quite romantic.. especially with good weather! Hopefully next time the organisers can take note to get subtitles for the movie!
