i took walking to another new level today! i was totally ready for a long walk/hike in my comfortable pe attire (sas gomes tshirt + red fbt + my red&black brazilian praia. i'm so red!), backpack. but i soon realised my brazilian praia ain't good for hiking because my right big toe ached after brushing too much with the strap. ):

i nearly walked from blk 400+ to khatib mrt station after getting a trim of my hair. i was planning to walk towards shaughnessy and then turn right and walk straight down to near orchidpark secondary school and then to khatib central and eventually e mrt station. but my dad picked me up (he drove me to e hairdresser) and he's right that i would take super long to walk. cuz i would take like 10mins to bike over the same distance that i've planned to walk.

headed for international plaza to submit my timesheet. was worried that it would rain over there because it started raining heavily when the train reached amk. but luckily the rain has ended when i reached there! so after submitting my timesheet, i walked over to raffles place, this time deciding to get the tehtarik near china square:
the shop, manned by indians, have this very strong ginger smell and sometimes i think i tasted ginger in my tehtarik. it's very sweet but somehow i just like it. it doesn't taste like the conventional tehtarik though. perhaps the indians have some special remedy. noorlin once said it's the only thing you should buy from that shop. it's for $1.50 and apparently it's a hot seller because everyday at lunchtime you would definitely see someone carrying a cup around raffles place area.
then i walked past fullerton, crossed the bridge and then reached esplanade. in the underground pass to the mrt station, there's this series of photos of different ballets performed by the Singapore Dance Theatre which is damn nice! i would like to watch Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty! when i was young, i read a few series of ballet mangas that featured Swan Lake which is sooo beautiful. i want to see the 32 swirls the Black Swan would have to perform! Sleeping Beauty caught my eye when i read Adrienne Sharp's First Love. super nice!
and then past suntec city. was on the bridge towards shaw towers.
lo and behold! island creamery no longer holds its fort at no.1 by itself in my heart anymore! Tom's Palette rocks too! i love their Granny's Favourite, which the lady told me consists of cookie dough and some chocolate i think. SUPERB! the white ice-cream on the right is actually Oreo Cheesecake with real chunks of oreo cookies! the price goes by the size of the cup, ie you can get 2 flavours in one cup with NO EXTRA CHARGE! i got medium cup for $3.40. how cool is that.
went to national library to return and borrow some books. got some travelogues again. then i walked towards dhoby ghaut and passed by Singapore Art Museum.

British Council!

somehow i just felt like walking and i continued on to Somerset, and then Orchard. i've even decided to walk to Newton! but well, i walked in the wrong direction and ended up at Napier Road instead.

it's supposed to read Tudor Court but the tree is right smack in the middle.

in the end i walked back to Orchard mrt station and took a train home. my feet felt super relieved! haha.

the walk had felt damn shiok today, so next time i shall explore somemore! with proper footwear, no less. (:

i'm flying off tomorrow! so excited. :DDD

but i wouldn't be contactable though, cuz i don't have auto-roaming. just email me or something and when i'm at an internet cafe i will reply! (:
