Day 21: Frozen New Year

No, it didn't actually anywhere near cold enough for ice to form (temperatures stayed in the 80s), but I DID get to see Frozen, like I said I would. I really liked it; it was a really cute movie, and while it was flawed I still agree that it's one of Disney's stronger works. While I guessed some of the plot points, there were others that took me by complete surprise.

Anyways, I ended up going to yet another shopping mall in order to watch the movie. Turns out movies in Singapore work a lot differently than in the U.S. You can't arrive at the last minute to buy your ticket (I found that out the hard way...) and you're assigned a seat, like when you watch a Broadway performance. The previews were mostly Singapore advertisements, and they were generally in English, Chinese, or both. Oh yeah, and the movie itself had Chinese subtitles.

Since I missed the 4:55 PM showing of the movie due to the aforementioned issue, I spent time exploring the mall instead. Most of the shops were closed for the Lunar New Year, but I found a HUGE arcade and a game store! Oh, I wish I brought my video camera, but all I got were some lousy-quality pictures I took with my 3DS. I'll put them here anyway for you to see, but they're not very good...

It was cool to see all the Japanese games before they're released in the U.S. (or, in some cases, they were never released in the U.S.). It also seems they sell North American 3DS games, but they're pretty pricey at around S$60-S$70. I think I'll just wait until I get back home to worry about new 3DS games.
