Greek masterpieces

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Yong Chao and Weiqiang


Yesterday evening I went to the National Museum to see the Greek Masterpieces From The Louvre... and because the exhibition was about to close (last day today), the operation hours for the last 3 days have extended til 8 pm, and between 6 to 8 pm, it was free admission!! :-D

I took lots of pictures of the statues, accessories and busts found there. But I hadn't the courage or time to try out the Greek clothings found at the backstage region. So many naked figures, both men and women, the Greeks certainly have no shame back then, tsk tsk. And I aint gonna upload the pictures here, for I took about 100. But if you are really keen on viewing the pictures, you may go to this link here... http://s213.photobucket.com/albums/cc78/anakyn_rulz/greek%20masterpieces/
What I can show you are pictures of a huge David statue standing in the centre of the musuem... this just came in last week.

Hmmm... David must be damn pissed over the fact that many people are staring at his butt or dick... or maybe he's trying to figure out a way on how to take a leak or do big business without anyone looking. Or maybe he's just vain. I wonder how he got so huge though... even Goliath (whom David killed, according to 2nd Samuel) isn't this tall, from what I remember.

David: Oui, kua si mi?? Yes, I'm talking to YOU. Are you done snapping away at my naked sexy body already???

Nah, I can't top it off. I can never be like David. :-x


Oh, I saw this interesting activity segment too. Helmets, plungers, gloves, spoons, cups snd bowls stuck onto the wall via magnets.


I managed to make a few faces here... :-p

I will gladly help out with your latest project, Phua Chu Kang.
A few minutes later...

David: Listen up, everyone!! I've had it with standing here and letting all of you see my naked body from day til night!! Can you please leave me in peace while I think of a way to get out of here...
Me: Ermmm sorry, Your Majesty (David is King of Israel according to the Old Testament, you see)... I'm afraid that's impossible. The board at the side states that you have to stand here til August 11th.
Before exiting from the museum, me and Mum headed to the different galleries at the upper level... namely the galleries of lifestyle, food, entertainment and fashion. By 8 pm, we went to have dinner at Plaza Singapura, and headed back home.

I can't wait to see Joanne Peh later, haven't seen her since last year... :-)

Wah piang, you damn lucky lor!!! Actually, I purposely chose to go on the second last day since that was the only day I was free (having mugged thru studies for the past 2 months). And since admission is free after 6, i thought "why not make good use of this chance?"
