Ktv marathon (not movie)

>> Monday, February 07, 2005

Saturday, went for driving theory lessons with daryl and liyuan in the morning. I was really tired coz slept for around 5 hours only. The lesson started at 8 am and ended at 11.30 am. I was sleeping 30% of the time there. Went Lot 1 to collect my ordered shirt and bought a $8.85 golden brown hi-treatment bleach hair dye at guardian.

Went out with my classmates for a ktv session at party world in the afternoon and sang from 3.30 pm to 7.00 pm because some of the usual suspects arrived late. The price is a costly $14 per pax but i think it is about the same price as k-box which is from 2 pm to 7 pm at $15. Edwin and Terence joined us after our KTV session and we ate dinner at Asian Food Mall in Lucky Plaza. Wandered around along Orchard road without a clue of where to go next. Some suggested drinking at Clarke Quay but the price factor restrained us from going. Edwin then suggested going Buikt Timah for a quick bite as he ate a little just now. We were to planning to go to back to the place where Terence and i saw the thing after that. Ate some good tasting kaya toast at Killney Kopitiam. Headed to my house nearby to pick up my camera so that we can hopefully capture some snapshots of the unknown. Then, we were on the way to the deserted place. Drove to the road leading to Sungei Buloh and did not see anything remotely creepy. The road we were on did not seem like the scary road Terence and i saw it. There were farms and some buildings by the side of the road but we did not notice them the first time we were there. The street lights were also brighter than the last time we were there. However, we were 100% sure this was the road which we turned into the first time. It was just that the road seems to be different. We searched the area for other roads that resemble the one we saw but were unsuccessful. Zewen was taking some random photos for any ghost evidence but nothing special appeared in the photos, until we hit a dead end. The place has an opening with 2 walls in front of it and an entrance in the centre. The right wall has an altar on top of it and they advised me not to take a photo of it. I winded down the window so that there will not be any reflection of light and took 2 photos as i was on the side closer to the walls.

Did not notice anything different about the 1st photo but when i took the 2nd photo, i was felt a bit weird. There were many tiny specks of light in the air behind the wall when the camera flashed. It was only for a split second but it was clearly visible. Zewen saw it as well and i took a look at the 2nd photo. There were many white spots on the 2nd photo.

I told them to get out of the place immediately as i was sure what i had shot is not normal. They drove to another eerie lane and i took 3 photos with intervals of about 10 seconds between each photo.

Noticed something weird? There was a white dot in the bottom left corner of the 1st photo but it shifted behind the fence in the 2nd photo and it completely disappeared in the 3rd photo. I was kind of freaked out by the photos already. Edwin's car was running out of petrol and we exited from Choa Chu Kang towards Woodlands Shell station. Shown them the photos after that but they were quite sceptical. GS insisted that the white spots were optical illusion and that my camera was lousy. Derrick also said that the scentific explanation is that they are concentrations of water molecules as the area is forested and that the water concentration there is higher. But if that is the case, how come so many water molecules would suddenly appear in the 2nd wall photo compared to the 1st one? Zewen said that it might be dust particles but i did not see any dust particles when i took the photos and dust particles couldn't possibly be that big. If my camera lens is dirty, there would be a spot in every photo i took but there was not. Nevertheless, they still had their own scepticism. My own perception is that the spirits were awakened and stunned by the 1st flash and all of them rose from the ground to find out what happened which is when i took the 2nd shot. I believe that the area behind the 2 walls is a cemetery, but it is just my own thoughts, no proof of it though.

After our Lim Chu Kang adventure, we squeezed our brains for any ideas of the next place to go and Zewen suggested a famous haunted Hillview mansion although none of us had heard of it before. However, he was not sure of the exact location of the mansion. I suddenly remembered that there are a number of deserted flats in Hillview area closest to Mindef and we decided to go there if we cannot find the mansion. Drove along Hillview Ave and into the small lanes along private houses but could not find it. Zewen and i even asked one of the condo security guards but he had no idea as well. Gave up searching for it and headed to the empty flats nearby. We noticed that there is a strange red light from one of the apartments in Block 3 facing a big patch of grass. How come there is a red light when nobody is supposed to live in the flats?

However, the corridor lights are all on and it does not look very eerie to us. But when all of us slowly creeped up the 2nd level, it was rather scary as we do not want to walk past the apartments with all the windows open. Nevertheless, we peered inside out of curiosity and some of us were shocked to see our own image when we walked past an apartment with a mirror inside. We only went up to the 2nd level and did not go further up to explore the source of the red light at level 9. Took a group photo outside the flat. Left for home after that.

My sec sch friends organised another ktv session on sun and i attended as well. We went to k-box cineleisure and we disappointed that the karoake set and tv were not on yet and the staff told us that it would take around 10-15 mins to warm up and load the program. We waited for around 12 mins and it was ready. When we finished singing the 1st song, the system hanged and the staff restarted the system. We waited for another 10 mins. 5 mins later, the same thing happened again and i was really quite pissed with the karoake system. They said that some workers are renovating the place and they might have disrupted the cables or wires. Luckily, that was the last time it hanged but it was already 12 noon and we had only sang 3 1/2 songs in total because we arrived late as well. We were expecting to be chased out by 2.30 pm as it was supposed to last until 2 pm. However, they did not chase us out until 4.15 pm. We just happily sat there and sang until our throats became dry and coarse. It was definitely worth the money as we had food, drinks and KTV for more than 4hrs at only $6.40.

Went window shopping at Taka after that and had our dinner at lucky plaza again because all the other places were packed with people. Originally decided to play arcade at Midpoint Orchard where the games are really cheap but realised it had ceased its operations. Played arcade for a short while at cineleisure instead. Went home after that. Did not watch a movie this weekend.

Decided to dye my hair on sun night and requested for my sister's help. I had to mix a tube of dye and some reagents into a bottle of bleach water. Then, my sis spread it all over my hair and i waited for 30 mins before washing it all off. Shampooed my hair and put some moisturiser on my hair. The hair colour is not very even though. Took 2 pictures of my hair today.


Had a bit of a flu today and went for 2 consecutive driving lessons and a driving simulator lesson. Got a severe headache after all the mentally strenous lessons. Must be because of my flu. Anyway, only 2 stamps, a final evaluation and 2 autocar lessons before booking my practical test. Found 2 giant spiders in the kitchen just now, tried to kill them using insecticide but it doesn't work. Got a driving lesson at 9.50 am next day. Gotta sleep now.
