the bus
today was slack! :) I went at eleven and got back at 4! yay..and that includes the time sher and i went to spotlight to get some materials. hee.
the bus that takes me to sgh everyday is awesome. It's a 30min (only) journey, and I really love the sights along the way. Hmm..it goes by the association for the visually handicapped..always makes me greatful that i have my eyes to see..wonder how they know when to alight and how they managed to overcome the difficulties of not having a sense of sight. (sigh). ok, back to happier things. then, the bus goes by ijtp! good old days of 5stones, hopscotch and fireman's pole. next up is little india..eyebrow threading for 5bucks only.plus many other interesting buys if i'd bother to look. then..it's the national lib and raffles hotel. No doubt, the new lib looks jus like another new, mod place to hang out..guess the spirit and history of the old one was hard to capture. I like the architecture of raffles hotel..one of the quaint things from our history.
next up is bugis..shop shop shop. the bus then goes to chinatown..rows of shophouses and some loud garish ugly chinatown point in bright yellow. today, i saw some chinese pavillion thingies in the middle of an overhead bridge..obviously trying too hard to re-create the chinese feel about the place. oh and there's that block of green and orange flats which looks like it came right out of hk. after this, there's a view of the skyline of the business district. heh, I'd like to work there someday. such a happening place, i think. Maybe after I'm tired of being a doc, I can go be a secretary at one of the posh offices. and hang out at the rows of bars and food places just next to it after work.
And the bus makes a right turn, where I promptly press the bell and hop off the bus which takes me on such an interesting journey.
