I LOVED THE HOTEL STAY!!!! It's actually Raffles The Plaza. I got the name wrong, but whatever. I LOVE THE ROOM!!! It has two HUGE beds, a glass sink, a bathtub, a huge mirror, a fridge, a CD player, a television and a balcony. I took some photos. I love the Singapore city skyline at night and in the day, though I prefer the beautiful night view. I could see the sea from the balcony! Not to mention the famous Singapore Durian (the Esplanade) and the war memorial. So at first, I took the MRT to Orchard MRT station and waited for my aunt (on my dad's side). I arrived there 10 minutes early, so I was like analyzing people for 10 minutes, like so: "That shirt definitely does NOT go with that pair of jeans." OR "That pair of shoes doesn't match the skirt." Along those lines, anyway. Then when my aunt arrived, we took the MRT to Dhoby Ghaut (dunno if I spelt THAT right. I think I did, didn't I???) and went to Plaza Singapura to buy movie tickets for 'Music and Lyrics', starring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. Then we checked out Yamaha for a guitar, but the cheapest one cost $145!!! After deciding that we'd check out another guitar shop today, we went to Sembawang Music Store AND I BOUGHT INFINITY ON HIGH!!! It's the limited edition version of the album, and it includes five FOB Tarot cards. It's just SO nice. I listened to the CD, I love it! Anyway after buying the CD, I bought two books from Times Bookstore: Eldest by Christopher Paolini and The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom. I finished Five People and I'm about a fifth through Eldest. After buying the books we went to watch Music and Lyrics, which is a GREAT romantic comedy. Of course, it includes music themes. After the movie, we went to More Than Words and I bought a SUPER CUTE tortoise soft toy. Every girl's gotta have SOMETHING that's cute!!! We then went to Carrefour for snacks and then we returned to the hotel. I read four-fifths of Five People - two-fifths before bathing (really, BATHING!!! Not SHOWERING! IT WAS FUN!) and two-fifths after bathing. Then after that I slept. It was already past midnight.
Then I woke up at six forty-five, somehow and I finished up Five People and got started on Eldest before I showered at eight-thirty. Then at ten we went for breakfast-cum-lunch at Cafe Cartel. We then headed to the basement of Excelsior Shopping Centre to check out Davis Guitar, but it's at the basement of Peninsula Shopping Centre. Unfortunately on Sundays it opens at one, so we returned to the hotel, chilled out one last time at checked out at twelve. We went to Spinelli and drank coffee until one-twenty. Then we went to Davis Guitar and we picked a cheap basic guitar, at $85. It's cheap but it's GOOD. It looked better than the black one, also $85. Then I bought the guitar case at $16. I got a free guitar pick too. In total I spent $101 on the guitar. But it was WORTH IT!!! Then after that I went home, reaching home at 2. Damn exhausted. >.<

Like walking into a dream,
So unlike what you've seen
So unsure but it seems,
'Cause we’ve been waiting for you
Fallen into this place,
Just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay,
You'll be back here soon anyway
I see a distant light,
But girl this can't be right
Such a surreal place to see
so how did this come to be
Arrived too early
And when I think of all the places
I just don't belong
I've come to grips with life
And realize this is going too far
I don't belong here,
We gotta move on dear
Escape from this afterlife
'Cause this time I'm right
To move on and on,
Far away from here
A place of hope and no pain,
Perfect skies with no rain
Can leave this place but refrain,
'Cause we've been waiting for you
Fallen into this place,
Just giving you a small taste
Of your afterlife here so stay,
You'll be back here soon anyway
This peace on earth's not right
(with my back against the wall)
No pain or sign of time
(I’m much too young to fall)
So out of place don't wanna stay,
I feel wrong and that's my sign
I've made up my mind
Gave me your hand but realize
I just wanna say goodbye
Please understand I have to leave
And carry on my own life
I don't belong here,
We gotta move on dear
Escape from this afterlife
'Cause this time I'm right
To move on and on,
Far away from here
Got nothing against you
and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light,
And I’d hope you might
Take me back inside
When the time is right
Loved ones back home all crying
'Cause they're already missing me
I pray by the grace of God
That there's somebody listening
Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
(I am unbroken; I’m choking on this ecstasy)
Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me
(Unbreak me, unchain me, I need another chance to live)
[Solo]
I don't belong here,
We gotta move on dear
Escape from this afterlife
'Cause this time I'm right
To move on and on,
Far away from here
Got nothing against you
And surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light,
And I’d hope you might
Take me back inside
When the time is right
