Yesterday, Mum and I were out for 9 hours - we went out at 12 plus and came back at 9 plus.
Mum said she need to go to Cheng Huang Miao to pray to 'taishui'. I went with mum too. We also met Second Uncle's wife (hmm...how do i say it in English, i usually greet her in chinese). Mum chatted with aunt for almost one hour. There was a taoism praying chanting going on..heard that the priests are all from China. We were eating around the table where there was free mee hoon and green bean soup. As aunt and mum chatted, the priests went around the place spraying holy water.
We left the temple at 4 plus and took a bus to Tampines where we took bus 27 to Ikea, Tampines. Well, call me 'mountain turtle' if u wanted but this was really my first visit to Ikea. The first one in Queenway is too far to go. Mum bought 6 plates that cost a mere $0.90 each. Mum said that it was not fun walking in Ikea, nothing special, just funiture. I actually had the same thought, no car - how to get back the heavy funiture back. Take taxi --- i saw long lines at the taxi wait -- around 10 people with no taxis.
We then went to the newly opened Courts MegaStore. It is quite big but again nothing there appeal to mum..i was looking at the MP3 player when mum asked to me to go as it was not interesting.. I just want to feel the models of the MP3 there and decide what i want to buy elsewhere as the price in Courts can be quite steep. Mum said it is because they employ dozens of employees there. We ended up visiting only the third storey of Courts.
I was famished when we took the bus back. We went hougang to have our dinner. Poor sweetie, DD, KK and du du --- no one fed them until i called back to ask dad to feed them dry food. At 9 plus when i was home, sweetie was extremely manju and kept rolling on the floor.
Told brother that i may not buy Apple nano as i felt it is too slim and no FM ...and one thing, the pink that i saw at Courts look ugly, i am thinking of a lighter pink. blood told me that slim is good lor....hmm...still deciding between creative or apple --local or foreign brand?....ha...are woman always so fickle-minded?
