Met up with Hoon for the 2nd time. Her daughters came along with us in the afternoon. The younger one is so cute. She was quiet all the time when inside the car. Later when starts to familiar with me, she starts to talk. The first thing she says, “I want to buy that”. She pointed on the advertisement in front of the Supermarket. Faint~~~~

Later, we go to a food court and I managed to grab some photos there. My batteries were almost dead. I only can snap some photos very quick, without using a LCD screen.

I went to VIVO city and IMM shopping mall yesterday. The weather was still not good, rain all the time.

VIVO city was big, but not really that many things to see. Just walked and walked and walked non stop. Something interesting was the “water splashing” in front of the building. My leg started to pain when I’m in VIVO. However, since already outside, IMM was the next destination.

IMM was a shopping mall in Jurong. Last time, it’s not fully developed, most of the shop lot is for office. Not many people wants to go there. Since don’t know when, this Capital Land company take over and developed it, it became a great shopping mall like others. One thing good about IMM, it provides free shutter for you to go there.

As usual, when I reached home, my feet are red and painful. Every time I came to Singapore, this will happen, no exception. Tomorrow will be the same situation for me since I will be going out from lunch time until night!

Woke up this morning, the sky still dark, it’s still drizzling. Why why why??? I want to go VIVO city! Please don’t rain anymore! I’m coming here not to see you rain…… Anyway, I will still go out no matter you rain or not.

Rain Rain go away, come again some other day. I think I should change it to, Rain Rain go away, come again by next Thursday. Hahaha.

Find out from Wikipedia, there is an additional or longer version for this children’s rhyme:

Rain, rain, go away,
Come again another day.

Rain, rain, go away.
Come again some other day.
Little Arthur wants to play,
In the meadow by the hay.

Rain, rain, go to Spain,
Never show your face again.

Rain, rain, pour down,
But not a drop on our town.

Rain on the green grass,
and rain on the tree,
And rain on the housetop,
but not on me.

Rain, rain, go away,
Come again on washing day.

Rain, rain, go to Germany,
And remain there permanently.

Rain, rain, go away,
Come on Martha’s wedding day.

Additional Verses:

Rain, rain, go away,
Come again another day,
If you don’t, I will say,
Rain, rain go away.

Rain, rain, go away,
Come again some other day,
We want to go outside and play,
Come again some other day.

Rain, rain, go away,
Come again some other day,
If you don’t, I don’t care,
I’ll pull down your underwear!

I reached Singapore early in the morning, around 6 something. Before reached the checkpoint, it was so jam. I was out from the Woodlands checkpoint at 6.40am, got into the cab and headed to my aunt’s place.

My aunt waited for me since I don’t have small change, she helped to pay for the fees. It costs $10.70. It’s consider cheap! If you take the cab after 7am, you will need to pay additional $2. Lucky me, the bus reached early. 🙂

The first thing I have is the Gardenia Banana Walnut bread. My aunt knew I like this bread so much, she bought it for me. How nice! I took 2 slices. But you know me la, still feel hungry. We decided to go out for breakfast. Before we going out, the sky become dark, seems like going to rain.

After breakfast, we walked to the market nearby. Hoon sms me at 10am and we walked back to home. Hoon took me to her house, then follow her round here and there from 12.15pm until 1.30pm. After she settle her 2 lovely daughters, we went for lunch.

Hoon suggested Pastamania but when we went up on the escalator, we saw Sakae Sushi. Hoon keep asking what I wanted to have for lunch. I cin cai one mar…. In the end, we walked into Sakae Sushi. 🙂

I ordered Teppanyaki Chicken Set Lunch while Hoon ordered Soft Crab. Before the main food arrived, we took some sushi from the sushi conveyor belt (I asked Hoon, she said it’s called conveyor belt. I have no idea). My Teppanyaki Chicken Set Lunch came with many stuff: Chicken (Of coz got chicken la…. if not why call Chicken set??), Vegetables, Cuttle Fish, Rice and Miso Soup. I’m so full after having all of them. Hoon only ate her soft crab and one plate of sushi. Tell you one thing, Hoon was really good in eating wasabi.

I’m going to Singapore later at night, by bus. The last time I went Singapore was back to the year 2005. 2005 was the year I got my permanent job in current company. In 2005 itself, I went to Singapore for 3 times! Just imagine that. First time was in Jan, before Chinese New Year, went with a gang of friends. 2nd time is during May. I went with my mum. 3rd time was during Christmas, went with 3 friends of mine.

2 years back, the MRT was still not yet go into Sentosa, we still need to take the MRT to Harbour Front and take the bus from there. 2 years back, there is no VIVO City. 2 years back………. I cannot think of others now……… Hahaha.

I checked back my previous post on the Singapore Trip (in Chinese), it’s so funny written. Sometimes, when u read back all the stuff that you wrote, you will say to yourself, why I will write like this? But on that time you are writting, you will not think of that. Weird right? So, another good thing about blog, you can write down all the good memories or even bad one and keep it forever. After few years later, when you looked back, you will feel funny like what I feel now. 🙂

Back to Singapore Trip, I will be there for 8 days. Don’t worry, my laptop will go along with me. My laptop is my life now. No laptop, cannot blog! Nightmare for me!! I will keep you all posted with delicious food and Christmas decoration photos!

Stay tune~~~
