Water spout + VJC concert

Last friday, there was a commotion at my workplace, when somebody spotted a "twister-like" cloud while she was drinking water and gazing out of the window. and seconds later, u find the office with excited researchers toking abt it and suddenly running out of the office to catch a better view at the "Sky Bridge" at Level 5. they were even saying things like "if the crane thing fell when the twister is near it, we noe it's time to run" and someone even wanted to report to Straits Times.

and from the sky bridge, i took this picture with my camera phone. not very clear. but at least u can see sth.

after a like 10min of toking abt twister and it sweeping across the city from swissotel, i left the excited group when they said that it had subsided. HAHA.

actually, to me, the whole commotion was quite a comic-relief and an excuse to stop work for a while. heh. how often do u see ur office of researchers running around with video cameras and cameras. HAHA


Later that night, after VJC concert, Cloud showed me this link : Channelnewsasia article.
So it's a water spout, not a twister. HAHA

===================================
VJC concert

i love 3rd Symphony. hehe.. emotionally draining. tho VJC din play very well (due to lack of rehearsals) i think 3rd movt was quite "emotionally delivered". 4th movement was messier because it's a more technical and fast movt. i love their Spartacus too! hehe. Concertino for bass tuba was ok, in terms of tone, it was quite impressive, but the soloist needs to work on projection.

then after the concert, went for supper at macs. den those west and north ppl had to leave earlier than the east ppl to catch the last train home.
