The Tiny Dot

I was in the 42km in diameter city again! 42km according to my bro's lecturer who detests that land, I don't know why.

The aunties of the house doing their grocery shopping at Rochor/Bugis.

Orchard

The only outlet I had no interest in but to snap pictures while waiting. Oh, I realized Longchamp is far more expensive there.

How do people take cute portrait of themselves? I can never learn that. T___T

With Dad and Mom @ Orchard

I think the tiny dot is such an occupational inept country now(sorry to all my Singaporean/Singaland PR/ Singaland inhabitant readers). No offence proposed but.. this is the story. We were leaving Singapore and passing through their immigration and the officers actually halted our car and told us to get to the side. Ok, daddy was panicking and got down the car. Probably a fine from a serious offense? See, he had even forgotten to step on the brake and we were panicking instead cuz the car was moving forward! zzz. Alvin accompanied dad into the office and confronted the working officer. The conversation went roughly so.

Officer: You have to pay a parking fine of $26(I think so).
Alvin: Huh? We paid. I have the parking coupons in the car. I'll show it to you.
Officer: No, it's a motorbike. Not a car.
Alvin: @@ WHAT??! That is obviously a car!
Officer: I don't know. But according to the fine, it's stated that your motorbike did not pay for the parking ticket in August 2006.
Alvin: What? 2006??

Okae. That was really lame, but, hello. How did an Estima metamorphosize into a motorbike? Even a transformer transforms into something bigger and more powerful or a caterpillar into a butterfly. And the summon was issued in 2006. Hello again. It's 2010 now. I guess the tiny dot is significantly comparable to my country of origin in terms of work proficiency. 4 years ago's business, they're bringing it up now. In between this period of time, how many times have we traveled through the custom without a notice about this? I couldn't count the number of times with my 10 fingers.

We were issued this letter later on for an appeal to be done. I mean, why do we even have to go through such hassle just because of a 'missense mutation' done by the person who issued the summon? It doesn't at all makes sense, does it?

By the way, here's an evidence! The Auto Pass for the Estima was issued on 1st Nov 2006. Which means, this car hasn't left for Singapore on August 2006! What crap! (:
