I have been shopping at NBAstore.com and when I finally saw the shirt I wanted, I thought it was not too expensive – USD19.99. So when converted is about SGD28. However when they added the shipping charges of USD23.99, it became a total of USD47 and other charges. That means the shirt I wanted will cost way over SGD65! Too expensive for just a t-shirt. :( It is the shipping charges that is the killer. The shipping charges are more expensive than the t-shirt itself.
Any kind soul willing to donate that t-shirt to me? :) Or does anyone know where in Singapore will sell? Please drop me a message!
After a hard fought Game 7 at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles, Lakers beat their closest rival Celtics with the score of 79-83. With that win, Lakers win their back-to-back championship, and their 16th NBA championship! It was a hard fought game because both teams were struggling on the offensive end with Lakers shooting only 26% in the first half. Worst yet, Kobe Bryant shooting was so bad. The largest lead of the game by Celtics was over 10 points. Yet Lakers came from behind and turned the game around in the second half. A true spirit of champions! They outscored the Celtics in the 4th quarter to win the match!
Even though Kobe offensive game was limited to just 6 made baskets out of 24, he grabbed a total of 15 rebounds! And with an average of almost 30 points per game throughout the finals playoff, he was crowned the NBA Finals MVP!
Rightfully so that Kobe gave much credits to his teammates. Especially Pau Gasol he mentioned. And not forgetting Ron Artest who scored the critical 3-pointer shot deep in the 4th quarter. In the end, it was the entire Lakers team effort that saw them through for another championship title! Kobe’s 5th NBA championship ring, and so is Fisher’s.
Once again, CONGRATS L.A. LAKERS! “Beat L.A.“? No, it’s “BE L.A.“! :)
Together with Louis, Chee Hoong and Edward, we drove to a place known as Bedok 85 to have lunch. I thought of bringing them to the hawker centre at Bedok interchange to eat. But Edward suggested Bedok 85. I did not mind since I have not been there to eat before. Our plan was actually to eat Seoul Garden. But we decided to eat cheap instead. So it cannot get any cheaper than eating at hawker centre. Anyway it was just a normal lunch out. No special day. Here are some photos I took.
On the way back, I saw this cute cat that was lying on a cupboard. I wanted to take more photos of it but I was afraid to scare it. So it was just a few shots I took. Yet quite disappointingly, it seems like I did not focus on the cat. Aww! :(
That’s all for this post! :)
Continuing on from part 1, here are more photos!
Here are some photos that looks nice in grey scale, or black and white.
At the end of the day when I came home and looked through the photos, I realised I did not really take that many shots. Probably because there really was not much to photograph. The park is not as huge as the more popular East Coast Park. Strangely I did not find a part of the park that there is a beach I can go onto the sand, or even into the sea. Unless I have missed it, else that is something West Coast Park lacks. Although it has a nice playground area for kids as you can see from the above photos, this park does not have much to offer too. Like again if comparing with East Coast Park that has many food outlets to eat at, West Coast Park only has one McDonald’s.
I supposed I did miss one of the better features being at West Coast Park, which is the evening sunset. I was not able to stay long enough till sunset at 7pm. But there will be a day I will like to photograph the sun! :)
Often I go to East Coast Park. But this time round, I went to West Coast Park. Gosh, I do not even remember being there before in 26 years. Although when I was much younger, probably 12 and below, I stayed at Clementi area. But I do not even have any memory of being at West Coast Park. Whatever the case, I was hoping this park offers me more than Kent Ridge Park that I went too last month where I was a feeding machine for mosquitoes. Once again, I took lots and lots of photos. I created 10 collages out of all the photos and will display them over two parts. 5 here and another 5 tomorrow. Here are the first 5.
