and I don't really care who follows me there
but I'll burn every bridge that I cross
and find some beautiful place to get lost
elliot smith, let's get lost.
and welcome back to the blogosphere, karen.
well, the week passed in a flash but all i can truely remember is thursday which is now officially known as GET LOST THURSDAYS.
aim of thursdays is to meet candy and sera and to get lost in singapore.
sounds quite difficult right? i've heard many a grumbles about not having enough places to go in singapore, how we are too small for our own good.
well, not true. as we discovered, there are nooks and crannies of sunny/rainy singapore yet to be unearthed. like this week:
we discovered keong siak road (plus plus plus)
keong siak road is tucked behind bustling chinatown, nearest to outram mrt. it has quaint little shops, cafes and hotels (oh my the hotels!) along the stretch.
being girls and suckers for chocolate, we tucked in to some wholesome ben and jerry's new york super fudge and walked down the street.
we discovered a small alley and to our mother's dismay, we went down the path, skipping in tow!
it led us to a small park with beautiful palm tress and people strolling and even unfriendly cats greeted us.
now the final stair case led us to craig street, home to old school telephone booths and on route to red dot building.
we hopped down to erksine road to see the famous scarlett hotel but got lost in the mystic of ann siang hill park.
we trekked to ann siang hill...
and discovered a 'happy' little gym with a probable fantastic view.
ann siang has a ghostly presence about it, even the walls seem so haunted.
after which club street was conquered and china square for a quick bite before catching a train at raffles. i went home to figure our route and:
we are mad.
but i like madness. :)
