ok, my legs are actually sore
i dont know was it from my jogging or was it from yesterday's walking
i had a long and tiring day


met up with alvinn at clementi's POSB
wanted to change my ugly and cui blue card to the black colour one
but if we do it at POSB, we would have to wait for it to be mailed to our home
whereas if we change it at the DBS, we can get it on the spot
so we walked to the DBS. and we were told we have to apply ibanking before changing the card
queued at the atm, took quite a while to figure out how to apply the ibanking thing
there was quite a lot of things to enter.... after alvinn was done with his, he was helping me.. and then there was an old uncle who shouted at me
"hello, the queue very long you know"
yes, i know, shout up and wait, douche!


while getting the black card
i have to change my finger identification to the signature
have to update the address....


on the card, my name was "desiree Jiang" how cool :D

went to the MRT... but the DBS called alvinn, *shrug* i dont know why they called alvinn instead of me...
i forgot to take my IC from the bank
so went out from the MRT, walked back to the bank, gotten my IC, and went back to the mrt again...

MRTed to chinatown, walked to the nice dim sum restaurant...
i had not eat such nice things for a while.. maybe every since my attachment started? or ever since my friend got all busy with her work?

after the meal, we went around the whole chinatown, looking for travel agencies which can provide bus service to sunway
and i need to get my visa to malaysia... not many of the agencies have such a service
when we finally found one, they need a passport size photo of me... i also have to update my address at the back of my IC

walked like 1 hour or so to search for the "nearest" police station.... and guess what, we walked allllll the way from china town to clarke quay!!
it was far!! huaking far!!
got my address changed, walked to clarke quay mrt, took the train to lavender, walked... again... walk and walk and walk... to golden mile complex
that was supposed to be a place where all the coach service company gathers
but it seems like little thailand to us
people were sleeping on the floor of the mall, there was no english signboards, everywhere was thai related things... the beer, the food, the people...
it's not as if i dont like them. just that it was very foreign to me and make me feel unsafe
so i always used the excuese of "think again" when my twin were tempted to book the coach tickets
i dont know, it just make me feel insecure

walked around the whole world, scared the shit out of me a lot...
ended up calling kee swee, checked the place that alvinn saw online.... great, we have to go Vivo
seriously, yesterday was my lucky day, we went out of golden mile, there was lots of tourism buses parked outside, the bus stop only had one SBS bus service
what bus was that? BUS 100, it brought us directly to vivo, avoided much much of the walking.... thanks god thanks budda thanks shen thanks everybody

booked the nice nice coach bus from harbourfront... (whenever i go there, i just remember how my friend told me that her father called that place "world trade centre".. i kind of miss her a lot..)
maybe the bus was a bit more expensive than we expected, but we get to spend a longer time in sunway.. plus, the agency looked real cool, they have yellow wordings on black wall... WOW, that's really a very nice combination of colour...

so, mission completed!

here comes the best... oh no, the second best part of the day [the best part was when i was starving, and i had the awesome porridge at the dim sum place]
we traveled to 313, uniclo... i saw them having a one piece series shirts on the newpaper... wanted to go there since 2 weeks ago, but i dont dare to go alone... so i dragged and dragged
when i finally got to the shop, there were only L and XL sized shirts left
worse of all, they were all men size... me wears a man size XS would be just nice, S is a bit big, but still acceptable...
L? no way....
but i just wanted that shirt so badly
well, it was my lucky day... i cant help it~

i saw this giant shelf in the store, with maybe 5,6 levels of shirt laying on it
close to the ceiling, there was a one piece shirt, exactly the one i loved
so i asked one of the assistance to help me check out the size of the shirt
YEs YES, you knew the answer.... it was a size S
whooooooooooooooo

walked around a bit...
had dinner at the "hand burger" i was kind of craving for burgers cos i just watched the episode about burgers in "how i met your mother"

it was a long and tiring day
there's always long distanced walkings when i am going out with alvinn
we always seem to be finding some place....
but never had such a long walk before... this is definitely going to mark a day


i am so looking forward to our sunway trip
it's going to be legend...... wait for it............ dary!!
:D
