I have had a long walk this afternoon with the initial aim of purchasing some basic equipment for my upcoming in-camp training next week. Never did i expect that i bought quite a few things back home in the end of the day.
ICT-Basic Equipment purchasing
At around 2 plus pm, i took a MRT ride to Jurong East Station. The E-mart was located at the Chevron, a clubhouse for the civil servants. It took about 45 mins journey to reach JE station. Soon, after i took a look into the locality map. Yesh! Saw the landmark of Chevron. It seems a short distance away from the JE station thou. So, i took a look at the watch again (3.15pm), took a look at the weather, and finally decided to walk to Chevron.
Took an extremely long route to Chervon, bypass the International Business Park (IBP) and also overlook the AYE. ^^ I have never expected to have walk such a long distance. At one instance, i took a dead end path!! So embarassing, I have to walk fast to avoid those aunties and uncles who saw me from the opp road( they were waiting for the company buses back home). After almost 40 mins of walk, i finally see the Chevron (the feeling as thou i have reached a treasure island) LOL. At about 5pm, i reached the Emart, took almost 1/2 an hour to sort out the stuff that i need to buy at this point of time. Bought a couple of PT shorts, powder, singlets, waterbottles, and most importantly, the camouflage bag which served the main purpose for the trip---> hopefully i can have all my stuff packed into it, so that i won't have to bring many bags for this ICT.
(ICT = old birds= no need to bring so many things) LOL.
By the way, i have also bought an Engineer PT singlet for my darling, so that we can wear them together for future jogging session etc. (yeshhh.. got a S size for her, think should be just nice for her!!!)
Finally, purchased the necessary items with the $ credits that i have accumulated over the past 2 years. Decided to not want to walk further, took a bus 52 and proceed back to JE for my dinner.
Jurong East Interchange
Back in Jurong East Interchange, the place was crowded, reason being that it was almost knock-off hours for working ppl... Carried a big plastic bag (with all the equip items from Chevron), so decided to have my dinner nearby. My hungry stomach told me to stop walking and look for the nearest food court. So, sticked with Vari-Nice Food court. I had a hor fun and a cup of ice coffee. Took a while to finish my food.
Since it is hardly for me to come to the west at times, so decided to walk over to IMM building for some window shopping. Perhaps i'm able to grab some Xmas gift or something for darling ...
IMM Building
It's almost 6plus pm , more people are making their way to this building. Xmas greeting decorations filled the main entrance. Shoppers were able to hear the Xmas songs being played . Well, perhaps that was the reasons for me wanting to get a gift for darling this evening. First, i took a stroll in the giant, nothing gained my interests. Next, i took the escalator and level 3 marks the doorstep of Daiso.
Well, i really admire the management of Daiso, the concept of marking the low cost, good quality products that make shoppers want to purchase more items from them. In fact, i'm one of them that bought some stuff from Daiso. (Some handicrafts that would serve me well for this festive season). As i walk in the building, more shops were visited. Finally, one shop caught my eyes!!! Something that i have been longing for, something that i wanted to buy for my darling!!!
Had a little chat with the salesgirl who have helped me to reassure my choice for this gift. Before that, i have also called darling to seek her little opinion. Think i shall play a little prank on her during the trip. In fact, i have asked her whether she would prefer blink blink and black color. (Yessh, that PT singlet also black wor!!! ahahah) Anyway, i believe she will like this gift. And hope she would be wearing it, since its a "couple" thing.
However, i'm not sure whether i should give her during the trip or on Xmas day. But, the significance of this gift can be positioned on both. My intuition tells me that i should give her during the trip since its more relaxing, and a place where there's 2 of us. Well, Xmas day will be alittle align to a festive meaning.
How? How? How? >.<>
Almost 1.5 years for our relationship. It had been relatively a good one with little hipcups along the way, and i really hope that the gift will symbolise that "i want" to walk many more miles with her. And the engraving that were made which symbolises the "i love" that it brings across to my darling!!!
Finally, to end of tonight's blog entry, i shall give a sneak preview of the gift for my darling girl aka LP !!!
LP Wo Ai NI!!!!!
