Changi Airport!

hi everyone, seems like no one blogged about friday @ the airport... so i shall take on this job and show ningfei how i can talk crap nonstop... in the form of a story :) it will be v long, so pls stay awake! haha :)

ok my day started at 9am, when i woke up. we were supposed to send felicia to the airport right? haha, and i forgot what time to meet. so i smsed ningfei. he told me 11am at changi airport mrt. so i eat and got out of my house. at 9.55am. my bus came at 10.02am (i think). and i reached terminal 1 at 10.28am. there were police coming onto the bus to check for suspicious ppl and stuff, at both the entrances to the underground bus bay. then i got out to terminal 2 at 10.30am.

the whole place seemed like an office area, v nice... i like :) ok so i walked along this v long corridor where both sides are offices. i walk and walk until i reach this bigger area, which suddenly opened up to the mrt station. i was shocked. you know when you walk in this small small enclosed corridor, then you go round the bend, and you see this v big area, at least 5 storeys high and 50m across. ok so i walked across this big area, and saw this policeman standing there, looking at ppl walking around.

i saw this thing that looked like a bridge that spanned a very dark space. there were escalators in the middle, going down. i thought that was to the control station, and as we were meeting there, i went down. then i got shocked again. the escalators opened up to an area of both the control station and the platform. never did i see such a thing here before. so i stand there and wait, trying to ignore ppl walking past (a bit difficult as some were policemen walking arnd). the time was 10.40am.

Minutes passed. 10.45, 10.55, 11.05, 11.15. 4 trains came and left before the first person, enqi arrived (at 11.15). we talked crap (haha, what else can i do? mug? - NF faints here). the next train came at ~11.25 and minyi appeared. we were talking about how to punish nf, obviously he's the latest... then we agreed on lunch treat. haha. so when nf appeared (he was on the same train as minyi, shocking right? minyi appeared long before nf), we tried to <insert words here: force? coerce?> him to treat us, but... nevermind.

we then went off to the departure hall. we looked arnd for flight SQ 158 to jakarta. it was going to leave @ 1250. (the time was ~11.35 for your info) nf told us that he told felicia that we COULDNT come to send her off, so she wont be expecting us. so we went arnd looking for her. and we spotted her real quick! haha like walk 50m then see her liao. (she dint realise we were there) then she found us and looked so shocked! haha we told her we were passing by (actually was enqi and minyi, i was trying hard not to laugh, and nf was like just a shocked look...) (passing by? pass by at changi airport? errr...) there was someone with felicia too, i think the councillor called yvonne isit? i dont really rmb.

so we went to one side to talk, and then we talk and talk. (i cant rmb the conversation, like talked about so many stuff...) only rmb somehow i got dragged into it, when i asked them who left the book on the chair. ah well not worth mentioning... then after some time (after a lot of laughs and etc), we walked felicia to the gate where the tv ppl always film the ppl passing thru the gate (actually is that glass panel, you shld know what i mean). then someone say they shld press themselves against the glass, like in tv like that... erps... haha... then felicia waved and we waved back, and then she disappeared into the crowd...

========= End of Part One =========

wow i realise i wrote a LOT!!! haha. pls continue to read. thanks!

============ Part Two ============

Yvonne left us, and then we went up one level. We passed by shops like crystal jade restaurant, sakae sushi etc, and tried to get nf to treat us... obviously he dint... hshs so we walked and walked. he wanted to eat KFC instead, even burger king he dint want to eat... so Terminal 2 seemed like there wasnt any KFC anywhere, so we took the skytrain to Terminal 1. while we were waiting for the skytrain, we discussed some thing that nf was v enthu about... a secret so cant say here... yet.

we got to Terminal 1, we walked the whole place, and no KFC in sight. so i tried to get nf to ask the burger king ppl whether there was any KFC around. errr... dotz... in the end, nf went to ask some ppl (i think some airport ppl) whether there was any KFC arnd. the reply was no KFC in whole changi airport. sigh. so we decided on burgerking at terminal 2. enqi and minyi was going to go up the escalator when we got them to walk over to terminal 2. thinking back, it was a nice decision. got to breathe in all the exhaust. nice experience.

so we walked over. then when we reached T2, we couldnt find the entrance to the building, but there was the big carpark there. we went in and took a lift up. we came out and crossed a bridge over the skytrain track to the other half of the building. then we came back to the original building. across ANOTHER bridge. haha. we went to find burgerking, and nf was talking crap and punished by minyi's umbrella along the way. (should see then you will know how funny it was).

then we got to the burger king, and ningfei took out his coupon. one was a bit mutilated, and the other one was new. so we tore the used one, dumped them to nf and he went to order, while enqi and minyi tore the paper apart. was supposed to scatter them all over nf, but, well... dint. he then came back, and we talked crap. discussed stuff like xianyue camp etc. whether we want it to be a daycamp or a overnight camp. where we want it. in SOKA (isit this) or in school. what activities we want. discussed human thought. etc. etc. and we also discussed some stuff. the secret as abovementioned. yes. :)

then nf wanted to go toilet, and me too. so we went to toilet. when i came out, he was still inside. i went back and talked with minyi and enqi, who got some extra food. at first we joked that nf lost his way, but after maybe 20mins, nf still dint come back. when i went to find him, he appeared out of the toilet, like a bit wet and his shirt splashed with droplets of water. he said he got stomachache. i think so too. wont say much about this liao. oh yes and i forgot to mention. someone called him to go lavander mrt i think. he says is his big wife. i dont know whether its true, thought his big wife isnt a person, but got 2 strings and a snake skin on it. dotz.

then nf got back into full flow about his plans for the camp, and his secret. duh. after a total of 2.5 hrs at bk, we left the place. for the mrt. we went down and there was the train liao, so we ran in and got a seat. it was v nice. the trip from changi to expo was 5mins. got time to stone and sleep. then ppl from expo came in (think was food exhibition i think). nf wanted us to go and eat... haha. we declined. after this is some v sian things, so shall not say i think :)

that's all! thanks for keeping awake. haha bye.
note to nf: please break the record length of this post! it's talking up 1/3 of the blog :)
