TSD Day004 – Out with Friends of NES
This morning has been especially productive! hehe!
I actually set out to iron only one set of clothes… but the enthusiasm and
the nolvety of ironing made me ironed all my 7 shirts and 3 pants! haha!
I actually took an hour to iron everything! wow!
After that, at abt 11am, I was real hungry and wanted to get some food!
Initially, I wanted to be adventurous and whack any restaurant I see when
I get down! hehe… but laziness got the better of me… Just went to 奶茶新语
again… ahah… with Gary and Alex… Had Chicken sandwich and prata!
My fav! haha…
After that I went out with Yvonne, Maomao and Hong Cheng. Suppose to meet
at Raffles City… but I cock… I exited at Ren Ming Guang Chang and went to
Tomorrow Square instead. haha… (its my workplace!)
I told them I couldnt find my way and they instead made their way to find me.
While they were looking for me, I checkout Gleneagles. cool! too bad its not
open. After we met, I showed them Gleneagles and we started our outing!
Started with the Shanghai Grand Theater Gallery. Too bad we cant take
pictures there, their oil painting is superbly real!
Then we took pictures at the Grand Theater! good stuff! hehe… After that
actually we wanted to checkout this Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition
Hall. But we didn’t go as the entrance fee is pretty out of budget for us!
(We wanted a max 20rmb outing!) So we went to the Shanghai Museum
which is about 5rmb for students! (NUS matric card works as well! hehe)
The place is still ok… Not particularly interesting for me, but worth a trip
if you drop by Shanghai.
After the visit, we rested our feet with a dinner at a steamboat place. Its
ala carte payment and we went dutch! (Have to acknowledge them for the
initiative to give me a treat). Their way of eating steamboat is pretty special,
they have a sauce which you can choose to dip your food in, pretty different
from Singapore steamboat style. But the view from my table is pretty good!
can see Tomorrow Square! I love that building, looks like Transformer! haha!
After dinner, we initially wanted to make our way to the Bund. But the rain made
us go checkout a church instead. Its Moore Memorial Church. The building there is
pretty old and classical… I like! hehe. After the rain subsided (Still dark and gloomy
skies), while walking to the Bund, I saw a few good pictures! Like the Big Coke
bottle made of neon lights. and also a cartoon character in which I used to see
on Sunday cartoons on Singapore Channel 8 mornings: 三毛.
Then the rain got really heavy… We found somewhere (lousy) for shelter and decided
a change of plans to move to 新世界 Shopping Centre for Winter wear (I have been asking them
where since dinner! so maybe they couldn’t stand it and took me there). I bought 2 outer
jackets for the price of 1! they were giving me 50% off! hehe… Then got free set of towels and
a winter blanket! hehe…
Finally after that I finally went home… tired and shag carrying so many things…
Mum called while I was on my way back. Almost couldnt find the right exit to come out
from my Zhong Shan Station. haha silly me. Then while bloggin and uploading the
pictures for THIS entry, Gary, Alex and I were brainstorming about business ideas! hehe!
Waste no time! At the same time I called home also! My prepaid value drops damn fast!
gona be broke soon….
Gona give dore a call later… Miss her, while she makes me envy with her Chu Qian Yi Ding
with prawns and egg added! man! I wish I could have some.. abit hungry now!
Looking forward to the first day of work tomorrow!
