scene 2 : @ haymarket metro station
winter meets jian who is sorta freaking out becos a moment ago, he suffered a temporary memory loss when attempting to withdraw money from the atm and they walked slowly towards leazes park, with jian talking about brain damage...
[-.-"]
meanwhile, azzy and jen were still at home calling their parents. omi and ren were doing i-dunno-what at their home.

scene 3 : @ leazes park
this was the scene that greeted winter and jian when they arrived...

the sky was so misty and dull.

but determined not to let the weather dampen their adventurous spirits, they ventured further into the park and were greeted by this...

clockwise : healing area, colourful teepees, some stall, small stage, kids' fun area, another small stage.

... the park had been transformed into a carnival with a hippie-ish, rock concert, kinda feel!

after several minutes at the park, the wind lifted, the clouds parted, the mist drifted and the almighty sun came out in all his warming glory! *joy* it was so warm that winter, who had on 3 layers, had to remove the first outer layer whilst jian took off his red, hooded jacket. the people who were there at the park were also doing the same. in fact, looking around at the time, one will see almost EVERYONE "stripping"!!! [>.<]

random shots of the crowd.
yeaps, that's st. james park in the background.


there were various kinds of people there... ranging from the gypsy-ish to the weird-looking, funny-dressed people; from lil' babies in prams to the elderly. not only that, there were a LOT of dogs roaming around with their masters... in fact, there was this ONE dog which both winter and jian kept meeting...

further to that, the amount of people carrying either a glass of beer or a can of beer were amazing! add to that the amount of people smoking... not only cigarettes but also weed. [-.-"]
yeapz... there was that smelly grassy smokey smell~!!!

anyways, the beer started to tempt jian and he decided to begin his search for the stall that was selling the beer. whilst searching, they saw this stall...

top - bottom : get on a coloured lady, spun round and round and upside down too, and voila! a white young girl!!!

...ehehehe! winter dared jian to go play but unfortunately, jian refused... (probbly AFRAID he might turn into a chun chiq... *lol*). the ride costs £2 to play and it seems safe. the ride owner (the topless guy) would stop spinning u the moment ur hair comes free... in case ur hair gets stuck somewhere and ... u imagine what happens urself! [0.o]

both winter and jian venture away from the ride, still in search of the elusive beer stall, when they saw this...

clockwise : "i wish my camera would work", the wish tree, tying a wish on the wish tree, jian's wish, winter's wish, writing a wish.

... btw, the temperature had risen so much that by this time, winter had already removed her cardigan!!! PURRRFECT WEATHER!!!

resuming the search for the still elusive beer stall, they saw loads of weird and interesting stuff... breathed in lotsa second hand smoke... (weed) and heard various kinds of music... and still, true to the nature of stubborn men, jian refused to ask people where they had bought their beer from! by this time, winter and jian had explored so much of leazes park than they ever did before! eventually they came upon the general area of the main stage where 'rock' was playing and LOTSA people were sunbathing and the scenery was lovely!

and jian FINALLY found his beer... which costs £2.50 a pint and £2 a can. winter, in the adventurous mood, decided to get a pint too...

"it tastes like shandy!!!"

... but didn't finish even half a pint!!! [^.^]

somewhere about this time, omi and ren FINALLY decided to come and they called winter to tell her that they would be there in about an hour's time... [-.-"]

scene 4 : @ the lake
... having finished exploring the whole of the festival, jian and winter went to the lake to pass the time and enjoy the beer and the sun!

... for almost an hour before azzy and jen arrived! and so did omi and ren! [-.-"]

ooh! and while they were there, they saw an empty baby pram roll into the lake, pushed by the slight breeze, and the father falling into the lake in his attempt to retrieve it.

scene 5 : still in leazes park
finally meeting azzy and jen at the gazebo... and also omi and ren, jian and winter began their i-forgot-how-many-round of the festival with them... [^.^]

and while azzy and jian went to buy beer and visit the wc... the girls decided to queue for ICE CREAM!!! when they bumped into...

ren, bad bear, jen

...bad bear! who was soo drunk that he could hardly stay in a spot! in addition... he's really HAMSAP! [.."]

thereafter... it was piccy-taking time... and by 7pm, they all went their separate ways... with omi and ren going home, while azzy, jen, jian and winter going for dinner.
