Just you and i

Baby and i actually wanted to go to MBS yesterday but for some reason it's packed with cars... I wonder why? Hasn't the buzz of it all die down already? Or do people actually gamble in the afternoon? Geez. Anyway, we couldn't find a parking spot and there were a lot of cars finding a spot as well, so ... In the end we went to marina square.
Oh, and the car park is absolutely horrific. The walls are still not painted so you can actually see the cement and cracks and everything and there was a section that they were still building. So you can imagine? It was absolute chaos, the cars are parked everywhere and anywhere. Serious. I'm quite sure they pushed forward the opening of the casino aka money maker.
Which brings me back to the simultaneous opening of the 2 casinos. I thought the singapore government was like defending it's stand against the opening of casinos here? Giving a million excuses like promoting gambling, social problems etc. And now decided to open not 1 but 2 casino resorts? And they're even charging locals to enter the casino(is it $100 or $200?)! Wow? You actually think that small levy is going to deter gamblers from going in? I mean, they go in to win like big bucks man! What's that measly $200 to them? Just more money into your fat pockets!! I guess making money is more important that public/social issues? And they tackle this by offering gamble counselling and hotlines and all that.. Genius.

Anyway, marina square isn't that bad. No movies to watch, so we just walked around. They were actually setting off the fireworks for the NDP rehearsal but we didn't get a chance to see it, i mean, there's people everywhere.

And we were dressed to the occasion ha ha ha. Actually i was but baby called to ask what i was wearing so i said jeans and shirt. So here we are..
You're welcome.
