Finally..the long-awaited OFF day is here! Nothing fantastic was planned though - but i wanted to go down Bugis to take a peek at the arcade Bball Challenge thingy (think its an event link to the upcoming Bball movie of Jay Chou)..upon reaching - saw nothing but some ..eh...nt very pro pple playing..so i suppose the "challenge" had ended.. I am nt very pro myself though but 300+ is nt very hard for me (aka 70%)
In the end, went walkwalk shopshop with JY and the fact that from the BJ side wanting to cross over to BugisStreet is damn scary enuf..pple are still wanting to squeeze into that poor little "island" transit point in the middle of the road! Well..cannot blame..if u dun move..u might never.. It has been ages since i step into BugisSt but i really did not expect TO HAVE SO MANY PPLE! Is this the norm for a Sunday afternoon? - well maybe a mountain tortise like me cannot understand.. It was exceptionally hot down there in the 1st level and changed only for the slightest better when we went up to the 2nd level... A disappointment for me though as i dun really appreciate those fashion there and i cannot link them up with CNY appropriate attire...So it simply means i need another session to go and source for apparels...
Next was down to ChinaTown to get those CNY goodies..looking at scenario i dun think i can afford time like previos yrs to go down abt 1wk b4 to get some gd bargains..well..due to nature of my work lo... So with Bugis and ChinaTown not too far away..decided to pop over to ChinaTown and .... IT WAS STILL ALOT OF PPLE! Well..i really tot it could have been lesser as i tot i have been quite early this yr..3wks b4 is already a record for me... Shopping ard for new stuff..clothes..food..blah blah.. Something new this yr seems to be nuts from Taiwan and mochi from Japan..hmmm..i was still the Taiwan muachee mindset but decided not to as i expect Northpoint to have some cheap buys when CNY draws closer..haha..(the aunty in me is quite obvious.._)
So it was a long but comfortable bus ride home to reccuperate for work tmr.... ChyeSim, XiaoBai, LongBeans, DragonFruits, Apples, Oranges ..here i come..haha
