women skating fun

Took part in Singapore's first ever Women's Skating Event yesterday. Cursed the blardy rainy weather for making everything wet and soggy. Arrived at the place and was shocked to find it so bare (what bazaar?)and disorganised. Yet, despite everything it turned out to be a pretty nice experience. We bladed from East Coast Park to the Esplanade, having to blade on the road alongside the motorists, and escorted by the traffic police. Yoohoo! We were quite a sight. Pretty much everyone was a good sport, endorsing the red tank top we were given - one that says "Women Skating" on the chest. Ended the night with dinner and drinks at DXO - a bar at the Esplanade. Night event was a little lacking - fashion show with crappy models, and a beauty quest with erhm, less than desirable contestants. But everyone seems to have a good time, and we were each given a nice little goodie bag to shut our bitchy little mouths up. =) I must say that Juliana and myself have some great pictures taken for this event. YAY! Satisfies the little miss vanity in me.



This is a pre-event shot. Look at how fresh we both looked, and with poofy hair too.



At the starting line.



Little miss vain.
