What's the plan for today?
8am: Go market Muara Karang with Grandma to 'BAI NIAN' with my relatives.
1pm: "Lao Yu Sheng".
1.30pm: Go "Mangga Dua Mall" with Aunt Lisa's family.
6.30pm: Go "MEGA Mall".
10pm: HOME SWEET HOME.
Now the elaborations...
Arrived at market around 9.45am, gathered with my mum's side relatives. At first it was only those I know, around 10.30am, the table size expanded and filled up another 8 people. All saying "KIONG HEI, KIONG HEI!" Collected my Ang Baos from Grandaunt and aunt. After that we went to walk around the market place looking for clothings that's nice. Things were really cheap here, quality wasn't bad either. Mum bought 12 clothings there. It's quiet today as everyone was tired after CNY, the emptiness is great for exploring the market, one glance and everything's seen! :)
We headed to the SuperMart. I bought lots of local delights for my DHL colleagues. After all was bought, we went back home. The "Yu Sheng" was prepared and we started saying all those CNY blessings. Aunt Lisa and family arrived shortly. Her husband drove his car to "Mangga Dua Mall". Wondering what's that? It's a WHOLESALES mall. My first impression was "It looks like SIM LIM SQUARE". Instead of electronics all was filled with clothings from different countries, mostly locals and accessories. It's suitable for all ages especially LADIES! Great thing was EVERYTHING was cheap in terms of SGD, sad thing was it closed at 5.30pm. We had to shop fast! I bought several clothings and bracelets. This is a SHOPPING PARADISE, real cheap stuffs which worth the bargains! >.<
Time passes fast today, soon it was DINNER TIME. Since "Mangga Dua" was closed, we headed to "MEGA MAll" which is near our places to eat. Ate Japanese Bento. Continued shopping around the deparment stores and bought clothing for my dad, little bro and me. My cousins bought "Thumb Thumb" ice-cream which were of finger-sized. It was delicious as a dessert.
Afterall, Mum and I spent quite a lot today but we really had a GREAT TIME!Everything worth the low pricing. Tomorrow we're heading to "Ancol" A.K.A "Art Market" to buy some artistic stuffs, most prob it would be seashells. LOVE IT in INDONESIA! ^^
