didn't blog last night - first break in 2 months! Reason: very happening day (and hence very exhausted): As the saying goes: Tired But Happy.. err... cliche.. :p

off-day but still had to go into office and later rush to Telok Kurau Sec (East Coast) to deliver something to the art teacher (they are having their art exams!!) Thereafter, decided to save money (and be a little outrageous) and walk back from Still Road to Bras Basah Complex! Another one of my legendary (meaning: epic, not imaginary) long walks! Actually, it wasn't really that long. I checked it on the street directory later and found that it is actually only 6.6km :p. Walked through the whole of Geylang from Geylang Serai market (where I stopped to say hi to Sarkarsi Said Tzee (local batik painting guru featured on local TV before)), stare at the famous foodie stops and durian stalls, and mingle with the local crowds - passed Kallang area (with its refreshing greenery and river), headed into Arab Street area (where I stopped by to say hi to my friends at Redbox flower shop), before coming to Victoria street and meeting up with Kai at our Bras Basah branch. Hahaha.. other than the sky displaying a constant threat of (and eventually actually) raining, it was quite fun.. See Tour Pictures (use the slideshow feature) - don't miss my b&w pics at the end!

dinner at Marche (very very crowded) before going to Kai's place again to finish silk painting -> Check it out!

finally finished Bridget Jones's Diary on the bus yesterday- Aiyah, still turned out to have fairy-taleish ending in the end... wish the ending was more.. unexpected.. haha..still, enjoyed the "thirty-ish-woman-convinced-she-will-not-get-married-and-hence-by-found-dead-and-half-eaten-by-Alsatian"style writing..starting to read Lord Of The Rings finally. Will probably have to bring it to India with me. Yes! I've booked the tickets and will be leaving in 2 weeks time!!
