Day 27 - Shopping trip

Woke up at around 11 plus as it was a free and easy day ad I had no initial plan in mind. I went to the laundry first thing after my bath. And at the doorway, I ran into Mei Yun.

The Auntie charged me the usual for my laundry. She's always amazed at the amount of stuff I bring to her each time.

Went back and once again, ran into Mei Yun. I decided to tag along for the trip to 汉正街 hoping that I could find something to buy.

Went with Winson, Seok, Stephanie and Mei Yun at 1 plus.

See, we are all trying to get to our destination... and it's really not easy as we had to be careful and elbow some of the people.

Who says Wuhan have no high-rise building? I prove that theory wrong!! Looks rather old huh?

We also had to ask around for directions to get to our destination.

And one of the smaller scale transportation..

Moved on into one of the streets whereby we met up with Xiang Yu who was carrying a packet of toilet papers...

Along the way, look at the demolished buildings. Looking at the picture itself, I am reminded of 3 NE messages.

Firstly, we must ourselves defend Singapore. As with history suggestion, nuff said. Also, using an analogy, I will link the demolished walls to Singapore and the machines to other forces. If we do not defend our country, see the end result?

Secondly, we have to defend ourselves because 'No one owes Singapore a Living'. It's every man for themselves and so, Singapore will be pushed aside for self interest. We have to ensure that this does not happen rather, we have to turn challenges into opportunities as we survive in this competitive world and prosper for many years to come.

Lastly, we have 'Confidence in our Future'. The analogy is that for old buildings to be demolished, new ones will be built. Like the process of building new buildings, we stay united, determined and well-prepared. This way, we have what it takes to build a bright future for our selves, and to progress together as one nation as everybody is involved wit the process.

Look, more 人山人海(Mountains and Seas of people).

They have a bunch of critiques for a simple game of mahjong... God of Gambling?

The busy street along with cars and human traffic.

Had lunch at fake KFC again...

Went into the factory sale of Addidas. Nothing much and so, while waiting for the others to be done with their shopping, Stephanie and I were camera whoring.

And another pose at the mirror...

Coma Shopping center mainly caters to Sports gear and clothing. It's all factory produced and sold here. Up to 8 levels... they should rename it 'Sports complex'.

Passed by the 'Tom and Jerry' shop. Mum!!! This is for you, your favourite cartoon after all.

Decided to head over to computer city (电脑城) with the gang. And there, sadly, we found that the shop's already closed. So, we shopped around the area and saw...

Puppies!!! Oh my god, they are so adorable. And the price at a mere 250+ yuan. But I noticed that most of the puppies were shivering from the cold.

I touched the brown furred puppy which in turn, playfully nipped me. One word-Awwwww..

There's a Maltese in here. How do I know? Well, I heard a lady asking the owner on the bred of the dog she was holding. Priced at 250 yuan... Ginger should have seen this..

Anyway, even if I did managed to purchase the dog here cheaply, back in Singapore, AVA will have to quarantine it and we have to pay the bills and also, the necessities of the dog. In short, the dog will cost a fortune should I bring it back to Singapore.

Took the long bus journey and went to 建设二路(Street name) to eat dinner. Talk about 巧(Coincidence), we met the 2 Mr Wong and Mr Chong.

They already had their dinner at the restaurant we are headed to.

So, we went to have our dinner as well as a lot of laughter due to Stephanie's attempt at match-making Seok and Xiang Yu. I kept laughing to no end.

Finally, went back to the school building.

Women dancing a folk dance...

Went back to claim my laundry before returning to my hostel to blog...

And after shopping for so long, it felt good to actually buy something although, Zee Min's reaction is really saying, "Huh? Shop so long only bought a Tee?" Well, sorry la, I not the shopping type.
