Cos we no tickets to go in to watch so have to do the cheapo method , stand outside with many other Singaporeans outside to "watch" free show LOL.

Then We walk to the beaches for a stroll , so soft the sand , and the sea is so cold LOL.

OK the sudden urge to bian bian , LOL , finished making cake , While walking back to the bus stop, we notice a girl sitting there alone , think she was quarreling with someone on the phone LOL, Kinda sux if she was ditched on a christmas eve and all alone at sentosa , not bad looking also , anyway we saw this very pretty "thingy" colourful and look like a fortress , jasmine was like let's go up , after abt 4 - 5 stories of climbing , we reach the top to find nothing much there except groups of teenagers playing the POP thing , u know those u can buy from the ma ma shop u squeeze the middle , then it bloats up and burst making a big pop sound.
Tat frightened a few aunties and my gf when we walked pass them.
Angry , and disappointed LOL tot got interesting things up there haha.
Then we took a few wrong bus and after a few trys we managed to get back to the cable car station , took the ride back to vivocity.
Our countdown was at Terra Cafe.
Actually was intending to do the count down at the big christmas tree in Vivo .But was thirsty so we sat there for a while then i saw people at the cafe telling each other Merry Christmas , only then i realised oh 12:00 Midnight le.
We then walked back to the cable car tower to make our way up to mount faber , Oh we didn't do out count down there cos tat place was booked till 12.30am by some rich fellow i think he booked the whole place for the christmas private party. Anyway it was open to public after 12.30am , On the way to the cable car station , i realise i left the tickets for the ride up to mount faber at the terra cafe.
Sian ran all the way back only to find the staff tell me it is in that big rubbish bin. Almost fainted.
Anyway i told jasmine , fark it just buy the tickets again ba . Reached the place , i went to the counter and told the lady wad happen , then i think the manager was behind her . Luckily she remembered me , and the manager was like hmm ok just for u , i am gonna just charge u $6 dollars for 2 pax . So happy lor , really really nice people , not to charge us full price haha.
So off we went , on the ride to mount faber we could see the lights and the "giagantic" Christmas tree.
Anyway we got there walked ard and the people there were like in suits and gown machiam go wedding dinner / Dinner and dance attire sia . Scary , but the place was so windy and pretty not forgetting classy as well.
Went to ask about the Snow show and stuff , next show was at 1.30am hmm so we walked ard taking pictures chill a little at the lobby.
Dinner there should be very ex ba LOL.
The snow show which was kinda fun but cost $9 per pax.
After the show we took the cable car back to Vivo.
As My dear gf got work in the morning the next day we took a cab home.
