sUnday oUt with Lynn
i rarely venture out these days... SG's horribly hot & humid weather is enough to keep me indoors most days now...but yesterday, i went out... to Chinatown & Little India! haha!
had Tiong Shian porridge with Lynn for lunch... going to Chinatown for Tiong Shian porridge is one of those things i miss lots being away from SG... absolutely love their fish porridge ^^ the place was packed (no surprises there!). Lynn & i had to settle with sharing a table with a family of four (they ordered their claypot! frogs' legs! WAH! i oso wan!!!!!!!! slurp!). we were literally under the sun can? My Gawd! good thing it was windy... and Thank God for SUNBLOCK!!!!!!!!!!! woohooooooo!
after lunch, we trawled the flea markets of China SQ Central and Far East SQ (nope... no purchases made... i was strictly looking ONLY)... then made our way to Mustafa.
we spent the rest of our afternoon there... Lynn got a new backpack for her trip to TWN (she's going this month end! Jetstar tixs only $300+ i also want to gO! = . = ) ... and we also picked up lots (and i mean LOTS!) of Indian incense for her Taiwanese friend - we went down all 4 aisles selling incense... SMELLING our way through it all >.* she also got Indian crackers, chilli sauce(!!!) , instant noodles (!!!! why would a Taiwanese want our Maggi noodles when they have the bestest instant noodles in TWN??? *faintz*) ......
then we walked down Serangoon Road (very exciting walking down that area ok? so much to see! so much to hear! and so much to eat!!! haha! its just like trying to make your way through the Taiwanese Night Markets, but instead of Chinese, there are more Indians and Malays there... i don't get why some of my friends think its such a big deal going to Little India... some people actually said i'm very brave to want to go there! bah! what's up with THAT?? duh! -- but that's a story for another day ^^ ), back towards Selegie area, for................... tau-huey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YUM! i can never remember what that place is called... i just call it "that tau-heuy place lah!" heehee!
it was six-ish (close to seven) when we left to walk to the National Library. Lynn had books to drop-off see? else i would never think of going to the library - don't ask me why. i just never think of going there.... bah!
went home after that. good thing we decided on taking the bus... and there were seats!! else Lynn's new backpack... SO BIG! surely cannot make it on the train! haha! we'll be given the evil-eye by other commuters if we took the train from Bugis. haha! and on a Sunday evening when people are trying to get home after a day out! O^^O
according to Lynn, we walked alot today! think its the 1st time Lynn walked so much in one afternoon. haha! she said it was good exercise & that she felt healthier. haha! Lynn you damn jialat! if you do come Sydney to visit me i'll make you walk 20minutes to Coogee Beach every morning for your suntan ok? then 20minutes walk back home in the evening. haha! oh and we'll WALK to the next suburb for groceries how's that? ^^
* Thank God it was windy most of yesterday!
** oh oh! i finally got to have bak-kwa since coming back to SG! heeeeeee!
