"Embracing the City"
Don't you just love Singapore? We are small in size but full of life. We are clean and green. We have different races, different cultures, different religions living together harmoniously. And, when we thought we ran out of land to build on, we started to reclaim land. Then, we'll become larger and there will be an increase in volume of migrants into Singapore. Things will become more complicated with more and more cultures, religions and races trying to tolerate with one another's "nonsenses". Ha.. alright bullshit.
We just hope to see less gays and les forming. They are usually the good-looking ones right? :D
Anyway,
statistics test 2 is finally over and yea i'm gonna flunk it! ha.. bad news aside! Esther, YanYan and me went out after the test! Finally... time to put school work aside.
Esther and me went to IKEA for meatballs while waiting for Yan Yan to end her lessons. Don't drool...
And, we saw these AngMo kids playing. the little one is really cute!!! can't capture her face thou. She's really cute!
Thereafter, we went to the movie section which is seemingly catered to kids. Well, Tom and Jerry is really dumb. That's all I have to comment on that. But, dumb things make me smile.
The following photos are my fav. :)
We met Yan Yan at ParkMall for QQ noodles. Yummy! should go try ok?
In the bus
We headed to Marina Square for phototaking? Ha.. no, we went there cos i wanna check out young hearts. No pretty designs :(

A caucasion came over to me at OneFullerton and asked for directions to Boat Quay. conversation below:
Mike: Do you know the way to Boat Quay?
Me: Oh, you have to get across and walk through there (points opposite)
Mike: Ah, so i have to cross the road.
Me: (Smile) yes.

Me: Oh thanks but I'm with my friends [went to the toilet]
Mike: i see.. so what's your name?
Me: Jaymie. And you're?
Mike: I'm Mike. (shake hands) So are you Singaporean? [do i not look like one?]
Me: yes I'm. So where are you from? [cos obviously he don't look and sound local]
Mike: I'm from Australia but I'm a mixed.... bla bla bla [i kinda felt tired and drifted off while he continues to explain his 'origins']
Me: ah, i see i see. So, you been in Singapore for some time? [thought he's a tourist since he's asking for directions]
Mike: oh no, i owned a resturant over there (points to one of the restuarant at OneFullerton) I came over for 1 and a half years. [And you don't know how to go over to boat quay!?]
Me: Oh i see..
Mike: I'm the boss and also the chef. [oh wow, are you sure?? then why don't you drive to boat quay??] Maybe be you could come and try someday. just give me a call. ( fishes for namecard from his messy looking wallet) Oh i ran out of it [expected]
Me: oh sure, i'll bring my friend along someday. So, what cusine do you serve?
Mike: Come let me show you which restuarant. Oh, we serve Mediteranian cuisine.
Me: oh okay [we walked about 10 steps and he pointed to me]
Mike: so are you with your boyfriend? [your business?]
Me: oh no, i'm waiting for my friend.
Mike: oh so do you have a boyfriend?
Me: Yes i do have.
Mike: ah i see..
Me: ya... [lost of topic since im attached huh?]
Mike: (smiles at me with some kinda look which i don't know how to explain. no the perverted look thou.) Alright, do drop by someday ok?
Me: ya sure sure no prob.
Mike: right, can i have your number? [expected]
Me: oh, do you have a namecard?
Mike: I ran out of it (shows me his messy wallet)
Me: oh (gave him that 'dont wanna give you my number' look)
Mike: I give you mine then.
Me: oh okay sure. (type in number and save)
Mike: You dont wanna gv me your number it's alright.
Me: (smiles)
Mike: Alright, I have to go. Nice to meet you, Jaymie. (attempted to shake hand)
Me: Nice to meet you too Mike. (return the shake)
I don't think he dont know the way to Boat Quay. I don't think he's the boss but I do believe he's someone in the kitchen.
