urban living heaven, chinese girls and then some
i literally walked through orchard road. went to almost all the malls along the way. saw a lot of good chinese stuff to buy and ubiquituous filipinos. it's also amusing to know that there are pinoy pubhouses and carenderias in some malls, hehe..
"what's that?" i asked an old man selling turon (and suman).
"banana.."
but i got lost on my way back! i passed by the orchard district, ended up in raffles and had to go in circles for a while. good thing i'm cartographic-smart, else i would've gotten really lost and had to ride a cab back to the hotel (i prefered to walk; it's cheaper, nice exercise and sight seeing all rolled into one, hehe..) their maps didn't have the exact streets and/or street names.
i was smiling when i was walking around though. it's like urban living heaven to me. i saw a lot of chinese people! some seem very simple but were very beautiful. even had to uh.. follow for a bit a couple of girls who really, really caught my eye, hehe.. and i'm envying the guys here. ah, what good pool of jeans - caucasian jaw line but chinese eyes, hehe..
that's it for now. i'll log my musings and observation later. i'm pretty tired from the long walk (was walking for about five and a half hours) and i have to be up early tomorrow for the conference.
