It was a beautiful Saturday, nice cloudy day with the sun peeking out from the clouds every now and then, with a gentle breeze caressing our bodies. The weather these few days have been simply wonderful, even the nights aren't that cold anymore. Spring is coming early to the Coast this year. =)
Yesterday, we went to the Gold Coast Show. This is a yearly festival, showcasing the people and lifestyle of the Gold Coast, including arts, sports, hobbies and interests. The site of the event is just beside my university, so 4 of my friends and me drove and parked inside the uni, and took a short walk to the showgrounds.
The showgroud is divided into many sections, there were the rides, snacks and food, games, stage and various exhibitions. The rides somewhat reminded me of Escape themepark in downtown east. Haha.
There was this particular ride that my friend wanted to play, but the rest didn't feel up to it. In the end, i agreed to play it with him. The ride brought us up up up into the sky, and twirled and spun us for what i thought was a tat too long. Felt like i was in a washing machine.
After the ride, we continued walking along, grabbed some snacks too.
We settled for awhile at the stage, looking at some performances.
At about 8pm, we were awaiting the finale of the evening, a fireworks show!
But it wasn't the end of the night for us. =) As all of us had not taken our dinner, we decided to walk over to one of the computer labs in school to order pizza online.
15 minutes later;
Yip Yip. After dinner, we played monopoly til almost 2 in the morning. Haha. Overall the Show was quite okay, rather similar to the River Hongbao Festival that happens every year in Singapore. All of us enjoyed ourselves tremendously, it has been a fun and fulfilled weekend, and i am very grateful for that. =)
