Mind you, it's the second time in the same month.
Then again, i tried the OTHER alternative way to get to JB. Taking the Johor-Sing Express bus from Queen Street (near bugis station). It costs $2.40 for a direct trip from bugis all the way to woodlands customs and then to malaysia custom. Chances of getting a seat is surely much higher than taking a SBS bus. The journey time is about the same as the other two routes i've tried- here.. But it feels abit longer bcos it's travelling from central to west instead of west to west. I find it a good chance to catch a wink or just enjoy the sight while the bus zooms through the road.
This time, it was a trip with le mom and le aunt, who are desperate to get out of time but do not have enough time for it. So, being the nice soul that i am, leaving le boy in Singapore, i brought e 2 ladies out for a breather. But the different thing this trip is... we stayed IN the MALL THROUGHOUT. How un-adventurous is that? But then again, it's with 2 ladies, let's not risk it. Haha.
So we shopped and shopped, and eat and eat, and chill and chill... all IN the mall. Despite so, I had a marvellous time at Padini, my favourite shop in malaysia. Rmb how the last trip a week before i mentioned that half the shop was under renovation? Went again today and it was all done up! Perfect timing! I spent all the money I brought for the trip on the entire shop. Love how they have clothes that i can fit into- the fact that im a XS/UK4 gal. Major love.
And we tried this taiwanese desert store to rest our legs. The Taro Q was so Q and yums. No idea how much it costs but im sure it's pretty much affordable and worth it. So going to try the authentic one in Taiwan someday!
City Mall was renovated recently and it really does feel like any other shopping centre in Singapore, especially with brands like Bata, Everlast, Breeks and all the shops that operates in Singapore. Such, is the power of globalisation. Haha. Finished the mall in less than 4 hours and then it was back to SG! :)
