eurostar carnival

Finally got to check out the much talked-about Eurostar Carnival.

For 400 bucks, it was actually not very bad. If you're the adventurous type with the guts to go on the scary rides, then your 400 bucks will be super worth it. There was one ride which goes all the way up (ala Anchors Away from EK) and then over, about 7 times, that I got dizzy just looking from down below. At the end of the 7 continuous turns, it stops in mid-air for about 20 seconds, which is enough to turn my insides inside and out =S

Good thing, my beau is also not the gungho carnival fan. So we mostly just walked around, tried 2 rides, including the nice big ferris wheel, and just enjoyed each other's company. The other couples we went with tried most of the rides, while we mostly just waved from down below. I know, I know, KJ-- but hey, I'd rather make sure I get home not dizzy and in one piece than risk it =P

By the way, prior to that, when we were walking to Eurostar, from nowhere came a guy who just blurted to me "Hey miss, do you have the time?" It took my mind about 10 seconds to figure out who it was, and to recognize the person! It was a friend whom I haven't seen for the longest time! He looked different, so at first, I didn't recognize him.

What's funny is, afterwards, my boyfriend told me to be thankful that I recognized the guy when I did, because he (and the couple we were with) actually thought I was being accosted by a stranger. He and his friend, actually, were about to jump into my rescue and clobber the poor skinny guy, when I suddenly yelled "hey! How've you been?!" Hahahaha! He's so cute =) I love him...
