journey to the west~

the journey to the west actually started in the north when i went to Yishun to meet sm, who, in turn, was to meet the infamous "Mark from ITE" for a moment of avid discussion regarding the risky pastime of football betting... shortly after, they exchanged goodbyes and we proceeded to the Orchid Country Club for a round of pool~

though slight improvement was shown, im far from becoming an expert in the sport... wandered around a bit before headin to Boon Lay for a peak at the so called 2nd 'Vivocity'~

this is the 1st time i've actually been to the west... never had a reason to go so i never did. it was the first time i heard the robot lady in the train say "Kranji" and "Woodlands Station".

then she goes on further with some stuff bout wad bus to take to go to Malaysia, blah blah blah... no one gives a shit bout the buses robot lady!

as the train rode by, i gazed out thru the windshield lookin at the scenery and how different everything looked. The buildings, the landmarks, even the people... the West seems to have like, more space compared to the east.. theres like, huge pieces of land for u to have a picnic in or fly a kite. which is nice~

so we get to Boon Lay, and right off the bat theres a ton of immigrants roaming around which doesn't even make it seem like im in the right country anymore~ and the Interchange looks like a 24hr Pa-sa-mah-lam... no idea wad tat's about.

Jurong Point itself is a labyrinth of random shops thrown together with no real classification or order~ the apparel stores can just be next to the tech shop, who's next to the food stands, which is next to GV -_-

the lack of strategic placement and the shit loads of people who frequent the area just makes it too freakin confusing for me to appreciate anything really... i needed to get outt've there, and we did. Walked to the SAFRA afew blocks away and attempted to take some pictures with sm's fancy camera but all we got was a badly focused road sign and a picture of some tree~

when we were back on the train i kept lookin at how far i was from home... West side's way too crazy for me... i much prefer the tranquility of the East :)

today in flight we experienced one of the windiest days in a long time... it rained and the clouds made the sky seem like it was almost time for bed when it was barely noon~ burned the hours away Patapon-ing and tossin snails into the fish tank...

met Fadzil for a run around Pasir Ris in the evening... its been months since i last went jogged, it felt good. im surprised i still have a decent amount of stamina to run non-stop~

i wonder why Tang San Zang never considered focusing his journey more to the East... im sure he would've found it far more formidable & less resistant...


wadever lah.. & im sorry shawn, but Boon Lay scares me...
and ur a fool of a toook~


East side ftw~
