Quick quick update.
before i start on my lately happenings with pictures; there's another news. :)
I had my TP on 11th dec. Waiting nervously for my tester to call my name in da cold room. Finally it was my name being called.
Talked with the tester and brought him to my instructor's car. by the way, I changed instructor as my instructor went overseas on my test date; so I got to get used of my new instructor's car. Luckily it was only the clutch difference. new instructor clutch is higher, which I think is much more easier for me to control? hmmm. yeah..
okay. so my first test was to go up the slope. just nice got 2 more car having TP occupying the slots. He asked me to wait for the left one. then the left one's accelarator not that gd. and the right one went off first. he said me why dun i take the right one. so when im going to take the right one, the left one went off. damn. and i go take the left one lo.
next test is the three point turn. so many cars at the circuit that time. damn pek chek. the cars there dun wan to give way to me. make me more nervous and slow. lol. keep tio scold la. followed by the parallel parking, which I HATE the most. Very worried. managed to park in but need a lot of adjustment.
And then the "S", and out of circuit finally. just some left and right turn and back to the CDC. In my heart, it was so fast that I think that's it. Gone case. Failed. and then my tester got out of the car. and Im lost..... did I failed? where shld I head too.
Lol. I called dian for help and asked him where to go. He said I need to go to the tester office and wait for my result. Lol. and so I headed to the 2nd floor. heart beating fast fast. my tester asked me to take a seat and started all the SCOLDING.....
Mistakes:
1. You KNOW that there's a yellow box for cars on the left to move. But you dun have to stop so far away from the yellow box. Other cars will overtake you. you will not be able to visualize so far!
2. Again, at the traffic there, you NEED to stop near the white line. Not so far!
3. Your acceralator is not that strong.
4. You checked blind spot when turning left; very good. But when you turn right, you only see your side mirror. WHY?
5. When turning back to the CDC, their is a car going to turn in too. Why didn't you give way. You know give way, you know.
DONT ASSUME... DOT DOT DOT... While he was saying those to me in a loud way.. I was counting my points... Wondering did I fail?
And then he turned over the paper. 18 points.
PASSED. OMG.. Yeah... and thanks him.. Went to take photo and see the gross video and take my temp license. hoho.
=] First time passed. Thanks to my instructors. CDC is definitely better than YCK.
okay. Pictures up.
13th dec went to Royal Plaza Hotel to eat. Been there two times but still not as good as Cafe Biz.. I think I ate only 2 plates cause with baby, very hard to eat. Food wise soso. There's a magician that come to our table to demostrate some magic. Woah. Clap. PRO at that.

Only managed to take 1 picture using my phone as busy looking after my baby. The rest of the pictures are uploaded by Maybelline in facebook.

Went to night cycling after working at FW, organised once again by our cycling coach, Jeremy. :) This time round, our cycling route will be from
ECP -> Singapore Flyer -> Esplanade -> Orchard Road -> ECP
I seriously hate the route at the Nicoll Highway. The long route with clog clog clog. -_-"
Some pictures from my HP.

Finally we reached the Singapore Flyer. The chrismas tree is so nice. :)

The parked bicycles while we were taking some photos.
This time round, there is still quite some times, so sihui suggested that we go to the rocher road there and eat the famous soya bean curd.

The suggested stall was closed so we ate the next door instead.

There is a path for passenger to walk at the rocher road there before driving towards ECP... Up the slope and down the slope.. I made it for the slope but the rest behind me have to push the bikes as Ting did not stop 1/2 way. lol. And then down the slope, it was soooo dangerous! totally dark! and beside it was the drain. OMG. If you missed the pathway, that's it. I think the government got to put some fence or so.

Cycled to Mac Donalds at kallang there I think for toilet before we head back to ECP.

Our parked bicycles.

Sun gonna rise when we reached ECP.
While taking pictures of the sky, there was this auntie jogging with her husband I think. And she stopped at us and criticise China. Blah blah blah. Shocked. lOl.
