Hortpark + EDIT

First off, all the pictures weren't taken by me. They were taken by Alisa or by Ms Tek. So please, don't use them without contacting the relevant owners!
Hortpark's is Singapore's first superpark and it's located off Alexandra Rd. Take whatever bus that goes to Alexandra from Harbourfront and you'll reach the humongous green space. There's the GardenTech fair held until tomorrow, 9pm so if you happen to have free time, why not drop by?
But ever wondered how a park looks like while under 'construction?' Look no further...



This was taken sometime last year...
And about a week before the official launch (which was dec 7)...
The awesome as hell glasshouses with automated screenings.
The much mentioned recycled garden. The plot's 8m by 8m if you're curious to know.
Another showplot on the way.
The playground. I actually went there when it opened and the view from under the structure was just...wow. Lucky kids.

I shall post pictures of how the place looks post-launch because my mum keeps taking my camera. T.T The shot from the infinity pool is just magnificent I tell you. Especially at dusk.
************
I don't exactly fear tomorrow's autocad practical exam...I'm afraid I won't complete it on time! (I know sometimes, my post reeks of my perfectionist attitude but that's me).
Anywhos, I found a honest to god, fantabulous cb, koreanent. I've FINALLY dled my BB+WG Tell Me/Lie MuBank perf, the yoosu and yunjae couple talk from aadbsk2 and now, dling ehb ep 1. The latest episode, which took some 3 hours to download yesterday was worth the wait. Seriously.
And then there's news that SJ will be starting their tour in JANUARY. I'm like...wtf.
Because:
a) SJ China will debut ard Feb
b) They just HAPPEN to skip Singapore. AGAIN.
They're heading for china-indon-japan-philippines, (not in that order of course). I pray it isn't true. Because as ridiculously affordable a ticket would be to indon, my parents will have my head if I even mentioned a desire to go. Sigh. Next year, dbsk have BETTER come to KL around december. And this time, I'm gonna make sure I'm available.

On your left are where the show plots would be.
