One evening in Bukit Batok

One evening in Bukit Batok

I spent about 10 years living in Bukit Batok (Bukit Gombak to be exact).. and later moved to my current home at Bukit Panjang. Then, I concluded I must be a hilly person in my previous life.. (SHAN sounds like mountain and "Bukit" means hill in malay suz/zus, correct me if i'm wrong hor..).. but mabbe not so becus i had spent my unknown and forgotten babyhood in boonlay too..

Anyway, i have the urge to go out during weekends... ermm.. because it's weekend? So, on saturday, I met ngr at westmall for dinner. I think the last time I visited the mall was.. in Feb when i watched the kungfu movie. becus it seems like everyone ard us are falling ill/not feeling well (us included), we opted for chinese crusine, which is supposedly to be a little bit more healthier... The long queue outside this crystal jade influenced chinese restuarant - maysim caught my attention. did i mention that I only reached westmall at 8.30pm? So, we ended up queuing up with the crowd too. hahaha, with that crowd, i can safely assume that the food won't go that wrong bah..

Foodwise and pricewise, it's just average.. i find the duck meat hard to chew though. Hmm.. there are some northern dimsums too. The cantonese dimsum are only available before a certain time, which i've forgotten liao. It's disppointing when i know my favorite har gao (prawn dumplings?) is not available.. sighs.. after all, this is my last meal outing to mark the beginning of exams and stress and revisions... so depressing..... but nvm..

I love the bukit batok macdonalds outlet near bus interchange because this is the nearest macs around when i was in primary school? I would be so easily contented when my parents brought the very mafan me and my siblings there for dinner after visiting my waipo (grandma) or a swim at the bukit batok swimming pool.. :) Usually, I'll pass the building without much notice. But that day (night), it's like waving at me for attention..

with the new "Opens 24 hours" sign, it looks brighter and more colorful now. i can't help but to take a picture of it. after all, it's not that easy to spot a 2-storey high macdonalds in singapore lorh...



there's nothing much we can do after dinner so, I went home i took a picture of my chipped specs.. because there's something interesting about the chip..



i'm sure not many ppl realised the chipped area looks like a heart shape at some angles!

how cool!! how comforting.......

maybe i should start selling the chip-in-specs idea to the optical shops. heh heh..
