I went to work on Saturday. I still felt bad. Angelo SMS'ed me and asked me if I wanted to go to Funan Centre to check out the newly opened Xbox section inside Challenger that Sheylara was promoting. I was about to turn him down when I remembered that I wanted to look for a USB microphone for Rock Band (I bought it recently!).
After work, I went to the Challenger at Funan and asked around. I actually got the same answer that I got from most places: There are no such things as USB microphones. At least locally anyway. Angelo showed up soon and we arrived at the Xbox section promptly at 2 pm.
To be honest, the event didn't seem to go quite well because there weren't many people there aside from random Challenger shoppers. There was a Rock Band demo and they asked for volunteers. No one wanted to try the game at all and it felt very awkward, so... guess who volunteered.
We played Learn to Fly by Foo Fighters. I need to stop getting my photo taken in public like that.
After that, me and Angelo were about to go have lunch when 2 guys came up to us and asked us if we could eat free curry puffs on their behalf. It turned out that they were part of some Mediacorp island-wide race thing (a local Amazing Race rip-off?) and their challenge at this checkpoint was to finish 2 curry puffs each. They were both Muslims and fasting so they couldn't complete the challenge. haha.
So me and Angelo each stuffed down 2 curry puffs. "You're lucky I haven't had my breakfast or lunch yet," I said. There were some Mediacorp people and other participants standing around. As soon as we were done eating, the two guys thanked us profusely before racing off. It was kinda weird; I wonder if this show will be aired on TV. haha.
Since we both had curry puffs already, we decided to just skip lunch and go home.
On a side-note, I managed to get my Rock Band USB microphone 2nd-hand from someone who was selling his.
