In case you are wondering why I took pictures of these 2 carpark signboards, well, they are actually placed back to back (ie. mounted on the same pole). If you look carefully (sorry u have to squint ur eyes a little), the first one states the parking rate as "50cents per 1/2hr" in the evening, while the second one states 'free parking"!!! And these parking lots are merely separated by a small road divider.
I was v lucky to get a lot on the other side of the divider which states free parking. In fact, i knew this 'lobang' long ago but nv expect myself to be so heng yday. I was on my way to visit the newly opened National Library.
My first impression of the National Library wasnt good. Firstly, i dun really like reading books. Secondly, i find the place too crowded with ppl, esp kids, on the first 2 storeys. But as i made my way up, i began to appreciate the building more.
Well, i know there s nothing special abt the above pics, i jus took them out of fun from the highest storey. There were a few exhibits on the growth of Singapore too, which are very interesting. I was most fascinated by the photographs of old singapore, comparing the past and present of diff places like CityHall, Orchard etc. "Oh, this bare land was once where Suntec is sitting now?".
Overall, the new National Library is quite nice, esp the upper storeys. Can even see the NDP rehearsal from the large glass panels. Cool.. i may visit it more often in the near future.
