It's CHRISTMAS!!!

Was down at Orchard Road last weekend to take some pictures. 

I've always been visiting Orchard during the Christmas period and I can't help but notice that the decorations are getting worse over the years. I remember when I was younger, there would be like awesome decorations in the shopping malls with all those Disney and what not characters. The outside of the buildings would be brightly lit and very colourful. Recently however, things are becoming more dull. Like this year, the main colours are just white and blue, unlike previous years where there would be a variety of colours and the different segments of roads would be in different colour schemes. (It's suppose to be "safe" colours for the drivers so that they won't mistake the decorations for traffic lights, but I guess the lack of colours defeat the purpose of even having decorations)

In the past, my favourite would be Centre Point Mall. Before it renovated, there used to be an area outside the building where there would be really nice decorations (like there was once it was M&Ms) After the renovation, it's just plain and boring.

All in all, I just feel like Christmas is no longer as colourful as it used to be and it's quite sad that the younger generation will not be able to enjoy the past.
