F1 Race & A Parking Idiot

K and I went to Suntec to check out my sunglasses yesterday night. Somehow, this time round when i tried on the Armani pair, i didn't like it as much. But i spotted another Gucci pair which i totally adored.. We didn't buy it in the end, decided to look around see if the neighbourhood optical shops will have the same model at cheaper prices.

We had parked our car at K's office building, since it was free, and the roads in Suntec area were all closed due to the F1 finals. When we reached the car park, we had to park right on the rooftop level cause there were absolutely no lots at all at the lower levels. K said it's the first time he had to go so high up. During the drive up, we saw this parking idiot who totally pissed me off i had to take a picture of it and post it on my blog:

The driver of this car is a total IDIOT. Really. He / She should be shot.

When i alighted from our car, i could hear the sound of the F1 cars zooming around the race track. The zooming sounds were so loud and fast that it created such an exciting vibe i wanted to gate crash into the grand stand to watch the race! = )

After shopping for the sunglasses, K and I went over to Outback steakhouse for dinner, and to watch the F1 race on TV. We had the most unhealthy dinner ever: Onion Rings, Deep fried mushrooms, bread, cheese fries and crab cakes. I also took a picture of this Kangaroo soft toy that's inside the Outback restaurant. Thought it looked very cute. = )





The race was actually more exciting than i had thought. There were a few crashes here and there. There was this fellow who sped off at the pit stop before the mechanics could finish refuelling his tank. So the fuel pipe was hanging out halfway from his fuel tank. Then there was another guy who ramped into a corner and his right front whell came off totally. I think the people watching the race are partly saddistic, cause they are just waiting for something to happen (accidents, crashes). I mean, that's what makes the race interesting right?! Who would like to just watch the cars go round 61 laps without anything happening?!

We left around 1030pm after the race ended with this Spanish guy as the champion. It's quite hilarious watching the top 3 racers standing on top of the platform and wearing their caps. They're so used to doing the whole wearing caps thing after the day races, that they do it even though yesterday's race was at night and there was no sun. = )

Rather than head straight home, K and I decided to go to Marina Square to do some shopping since the mall was opened till midnight. To our disappointment, 90% of the shops were already closed. So we ended up standing on the 2nd floor watching all the crazy F1 fans make their way home through the mall.. i thought it was rather therapeutic to watch these crowds just walking by from a bird's eye view.

Our way home was in stark contrast to the therapuetic people watching. In fact, it was traumatic. There was such a bad jam we couldn't even get out of the carpark. K and I ended up watching half an episode of Gilmore Girls on my handphone while waiting for the stupid cars in front to move. We ended up reaching home only at 12 midnight.. by then i was dead beat.. but i enjoyed myself very much = )
