@ Orchard: it's a squeeze here + Xmas lightings

If you was listening to Power 98 FM on sat, you would had heard about the "latest" competition in town -- the super squeeze. And yup, i happened to be at orchard with shufang, and it's pretty interesting.

For the benefit of those in doubt, "Super Squeeze" is another squeeze-as-much-people-you-can-into-the-car-and-you-win competition, and in this case it's a very huge family car (Ssangyong Stavic, 9-seater) and $10,000 cash.

The team which i "watched" is Team number 3.. No. 1 had just completed, and No.2 had given up...coz no.1 had already done 43. wow.

Anyway please enjoy the pictures. Really envy these youngsters... First they could gather soo much friends for one occassion (40 over of them ok) and did it with soo much spirit n enthusiasm.. hhaah... and it''s not a great time inside too mind you... as i could see from the film of moisture that was "foaming" up on the windscreen, due to all the heat and sweat...haha..what a sight.





When the team was done and trying to come out, the staff was even needed to help to carry them out...


looks like carrying a body out of a crash..hee. ^_^"

and...this team squeezed in 46 person, 2 more than the previous team. Impressive... Anyway, told you the car was huge, too... haha..

hmm...if this team won, each person could take home $217.39... not too bad for all the sweat.


By the way if you are curious, this is the car:




They set up a roadshow next to it too, to promote this new model. Although, yes, it's sort of ugly (as quoted from a UK magazine: "massively ugly") but it's a really big car. Interior was made up of 4 rows of seats, and they seem to me to be like sofa seats...you get the picture.

As night comes in, the christmas lights on Orchard road lit up. And this year's is pretty nice.

hmmm... really been such a long time since i walked along Orchard road with the Christmas lightings at night.

And don't know why, i was quite happy and delighted to see all the lights. Guess there's a kid in me..?

cheers.
