SHOPPING SPREE
Monday, January 12, 2009 at 2:13 PM
On Sunday, I met up with owl, owl sis, owl mom and mel and we went to Malaysia to shop for our Chinese New Years' clothings. First time going to malaysia by bus 170 after the change of the moving of their new interchange. Well, the journey was much longer and the jam seems not to be better but worst. The whole interchange was much posh but people seems to be walking everywhere like lost sheeps. The signage was pretty confusing as well.
We went there by the public bus and it wasn't that cheap too. The ticket was 3.70RM each person and it goes a very long way.Owl's mom say was very expensive. The whole bus ride was an adventurous experience once more. Few years back when I visited my cousin in Malaysia too, I had an frightful experience.The bus nearly crashed towards a big tree. This time round, I wasn't spared too, the bus driver drive recklessly and keep jerking and braking and before all of us can even get down, he already started to move. Lucky, Mel, Owl and Me had not had any breakfast yet or we have already thrown out what we have eaten haha..
At about noon, we reached Jusco Shopping Complex.We ate KFC there. I love the KFC in Malaysia. woo..The chicken taste great, spicy and tender. The price, of course was cheaper than eating the same thing in Singapore =D. We started to shop from the lowest level upwards. Those branded shop didn't had any special promotions or discounts, only Jusco departmental store had very special offers like 50% or 70%. I managed to get some tops and a capri pants for the New Year and guess what the prices is so unbelieveably cheap. All the tops and the capri-pant only cost about SGD 10-12 bucks.Only the dress is a little costly at SGD 36. Omg..overall I only spend about SGD 70 for 5 items which I don't think I can get it in Singapore.
Dear came to join us after he went to do his things. He printed some namecards for our new shop. We ate our dinner at a stone-grilled restaurant. Mel said this type of stone-grilled restaurant, we had in Singapore too. For me(mountain-turtle) its the first time eating =x. I can't believe that our food was placed raw on this stone grilled thingy and what I need to do is just to cook it myself by flipping here and there lor. It was indeed fun. haha..
After dinner, we went to the supermarket and then make our way home by cab. Taking a bus from the interchange was an agony now. The queue was so freaking long and complex. Alot of self-formed queues and many people were cutting queues. Now the bus lanes are so very complicated and no proper signage. The whole interchange was so packed that we can't even moved to see anything. Some queues which were self-formed which goes round and round without even getting to the bus berth(means getting to nowhere =/). ARggg.. everything was so messy there but thinking of the cheap things I gotten there haha.. quite a worthwhile trip afterall!!
