Today doesn't seemed to be my lucky day... in fact, not even my day at all!
Waking up first thingy in the morning, I felt this irritating ache in my right shoulder, resulting in controlled, restricted movement in the shoulder blade. Each time I make any major movement, you'd see me cringed in agony :(
Worse was to follow in the afternoon. I was contemplating between attending Joeson's class @ GWC or Sue's @ Suntec. Decided to go for the latter as I needed to get some gift vouchers for my niece's 13th birthday. Reaching the gym early, I decided not to do any weights training to prevent aggrevating my shoulder. Thats crap you may be saying... As I was sitting outside the studio reading, Uncle Tim came along and commented that it wasn't Sue in the studio teaching BP! I was momentarily stunned because that could 99% mean Sue is not doing BC too! There was still time to hop over GWC if driving. However, we stayed on since already at Suntec... IT WAS A WRONG CHOICE!! The replacement instructor was horrid! He didnt seemed to know his stuff well enough, stole some rest during the class by tell us to 'do it on our own' or "it's your turn" in his own words. I sensed something wrong since the 1st track and had wanted to leave there and then. But I stayed on to see if the rest of the tracks would be better or not. But looks like I was wrong. The tracks are ok, but the style of the instructor ain't! And so, I endured an hour of horrid BC.
My eldest niece, Jamie was born 13yrs ago today. There's a BBQ going on over at her place this evening. My other sister, together with me, decided to get her $100 worth of Swatch vouchers so that she could buy a decent watch that's to her liking. However, both the Suntec and City Hall outlets had sold out the vouchers. I wanted to pop over Bugis but the rain detered me. I ended up getting the same amount worth of vouchers from MPH City Link.
Walking back to City Hall MRT, there's this part in City Link just outside Charles & Keith where you'd need to take the escalator down, walk 20m and then take the opposite escalator up? Well, as I approach this section of the mall, I noticed a large crowd at the escalator, so I took the stairs. As I descended down the steps, I saw to my horror, the entire 'middle' section of the underpass filled 'to the brim' with people. Some going towards the MRT, most towards Suntec for Comex I think. Its all a mess of humans. The worst part : the downwards escalator was still in operation, nearly causing a human crush at the bottom of the flight!!! Luckily someone was quick-minded enough to press the STOP button, otherwise, I would have been one of the eye witness of a pretty bad stampede.
The HUGE volume of human traffic is expected as Comex is going on at full swing in Suntec. But the crowd today is beyond what I had ever seen before. Perhaps the rain helped push crowds into the underpass. it took me 15mins to get from Charles & Keith to BreadTalk (if you are familar with the vincinity).
Someone please remind me to avoid Suntec the next time there are any major exhibitions going on. Thanks :)
