CNY Battle Round 1. FIGHT!
Met Botini today to pass her the badminton net. Lol sotong me took some time to realize she was in the other side of the gallantry. Ooh Maria Sharapova's the champion for the Australian Open. Yeap I've been following the Australian Open closely, too bad Nadal lost to that snobbish, arrogant French youngster, he reminds me of Rooney lor. Grrrr! Never mind, my tennis idol is still Nadal. :) 
Met up with Nut at YCK station, then headed down to Chinatown where we're meeting Mee for some CNY shopping. U_U" Stupid us! For some stupid reason we kept thinking that People's Park was at Outram Park, so we took the train to Raffles Place then changed and headed for Outram Park. There was this super handsome ang moh! He tied his hair up like David Beckham, you know that half-bun thingy back when Becks was at Real Madrid (and Posh kept bugging him to move). And he's dressed in rugged Hippie clothes, so cool! Haha.
Reached Outram Park and we went crazy laughing our asses off. I asked Nut "Eh? I thought we are supposed to go to People's Park!?!" U_U" So, we spotted this free bus thingy to People's Park from the train station, we planned to take the free bus to PP. And I spotted a very unique mailbox! See, isn't it special? Need to see more artwork, and I mean freestyle grungy artwork, not the oh-so-noble oh-so-cheem kinda stuff around!
Let's just say we're very impatient people, so we decided to walk there instead. Then Nut suddenly exclaimed "Eh? Wrong already!" Made me super blur O_O but I followed anyways. We took the escalator doen into the train station again and walked one round and went up from where we came from like a merry-go-round. -_-" Hahaha don't know what's gotten into us man, seriously!
FINALLY! We walked towards People's Park. Mee called and ask us to PARK outside the very famous Tang Shan Porridge stall. On our way there it's people mountain people sea! Saw an Ah Pek who walked funnily! We concluded that he must be some stylo milo, super happening Ah Beng in his heyday la! Lol. We watched people eat porridge U_U" Haha super fun to peopleeatporridge-watch.
Mee reached some time later and we were off for food. The crowd at the porridge stall is CRAZY! And the crowd at Chinatown is a gazillion times crazier! Imagine if the crowd's like that 2 weeks before CNY, can't imagine the CNY-eve crowd man. Counted down CNY 2 years back and we kinda missed the countdown, stuck amongst the people mountain people sea somewhere in Chinatown, couldn't even hear the fake firecrackers crackling. Haha!
In the end we crossed the overhead bridge to People's Park. Nut dropped one of her pumps ala Cinderella on the steps, hahaha then this very kind aunty helped to pick it up for her WHILE LAUGHING at her. Lol! Aunties are really kind people! Once while I was on the train, there was some insect crawling on my back unnoticed, then this aunty helped me brush away, so kind! Okay okay back to People's Park, had wanton noodles, usually they serve you the leafy green kinda veggies right? But this stall is really 'unique', it served you Gor Lei Cai (cabbage). Haha very special right?
Led Mee and Nut to the shops upstairs and they were very wow-ed, cus' they didn't know there were shops selling clothes upstairs. Haha thanks Rootini for the discovery! But the clothes last year were so much nicer. In the end, all we got was purple stockings for me, PJs for me and Nut (Mee wanted the traditional kind that Popo used to wear but they don't have), jeans for Mee (very nice!). Many people spotted this secret place! XD And for some reason, couldn't find this shop which sells all kinds of jeans (even skinnies since like last year but without the funky colors). I love love love my PJs! Cus' it is dark blue and it's checkered! One of my 2 favoritest favorite things in the world! Haha! Super comfy but I think I look like those fisherman Ojiji U_U".
Right? -_-"
Our legs were screaming bloody murder, decided to take a bus back. Yep we love our buses alright. Haha! But 851 never came! Saw this bus no. 54 and the seats are super special! There's even a mini bar-table like thingy, and the seats at the back were like some lounge bar seats! Took a shot of the bus on the sly :D. The seats that we were sitting on even more stylo! It's like those white leather Indochine kind of chairs very cool!
Very special right!?! So we boarded it, haha and decided we will drop off somewhere later to change a bus to Yishun.
Sent the Zhumeng (Jumong) song to Mee on the bus and there was this bluetooth user called Appu(-___-") on the bus! LOL! His/her bluetooth name is Appu(-___-") la! Haha!! So we were guessing who's the burger. Suggested to Nut to try sending something to the Appu(-___-"). Lol. After some time, we alighted at Marymount Rd and changed to 852 back to Yishun. And I'm finally back here at my computer table. :D
By the way, this is Jumong. He's super super cool!
Really looks like those ancient heroes. If I have the time I'm gonna watch Zhu Meng Shen Hua all over again! It's gonna be my favorite K-drama of all time! I'm not a fan of K-dramas (cus' the plot more or less always revolve around the same plot, especially so for its romantic comedies) until Jumong came alon! Love the war scenes with the majestic music! Last episode made me tear quite a lot, I'm such a wimp :D
update: Got my black skinny in the mail today! :D Only costs me $20 including postage. Whatta steal! Cheap and good! :)
