High Activity Day

We want to beat the crowd to the Library books SALE! Off we go the Suntec City Convention hall. There were plenty of car parks. We took the lift to level 4. No sign of life. Maybe it was the wrong floor. We decided try level 6. It was Computer Games Championship. There were lot of young girls in shiny armour. Their tops was low and skirts were high. The midriff was bare. With their high boots, they were very attractive and sexy. Looks like sex and computer games goes together.

Sorry for the distraction. I forgot. We were there to look at books, not cute young girls. Well, we go to the information booth and asks. Yes, we were at the wrong place. The sales is on at Changi South Convention Center. It is too much bother. So we kill time the Suntec Mall instead. Wife bought a pair of pants at sales price in one of the shop. We adjourned to Centrepoint to pick up B2 at Somerset MRT for his English tuition. Then send B1 for piano lesson.

A Parent's Life in Singapore is sending and picking up kids for tuition on the weekend! After tuition, we go fishing and lobster-catching at lower Pierce Reservoir. B2 caught a "soon hock". B1 caught the largest lobster to-date. He also caught an angel fish and a baby snakehead. B1 is a prolific fisherman! Me? I was busy setting up the bait for B2 and B3.

We finish the day with dinner at the Sembawang Hawker center. There is a cheap and good bakery called Singapura Bakery right beside the hawker center. The breads are freshly baked. There are buns with different fillings - red bean, coconut, prawn paste, kaya, etc. Price is at 50 cents each. It is so traditional and brought waves of nostalgia to my bosom.
