In the search of the meaning of Life...

23:58

it was supposed to be a long and good rest for me after 3 intensive days of exams, but then, the central part of singapore seems to be attacked by a huge swarm of bees, the whole central district is like engulfed in an amplified humming sound, which of course disturbed my rest greatly. part of it is because of the annoying sound after you have heard it repeatedly for few hours, and part of it is my curiosity to see the whole F1 buzz. if the engine sound continues on like that for the next two days and if my curiosity is not satisfied within these two days, i doubt i can concentrate on my maths mugging. and so, i went to take a peep at the F1 race, which is like 2 km away?

it was crowded there, as there was limited space for FREE viewing, so we had to hustle with the crowd and practise our neck-extension skills. after 20+ mins of waiting, the cars finally came, and this was what happened:

a double-layered fence separated the audience from the track, but can still see the cars when they zoom past

strange enough, there were more and more people appearing in front of me out of nowhere as the starting of the 9.30 practice session neared, so we had to shift somewhere to get a better view. Look at those crazy people standing precariously on top of the tunnel which was like 10 meter deep, they are risking their life just for getting a glimpse of F1, haiz... but wonder how i took such a clear picture of this? i was part of them :) my legs were like shivering when i was standing on top because it was so steep and deep...

this is what was like live, but cant see the cars here as my camera quality is low, but the sound of the engine, the combustion of the diesel, brakes, and changing of gears, it's worth taking the trouble to go there and witness everything, since it is like once in your life time...

so my curiosity has been satisfied, there is no more reason for me not to mug maths tmr
