Before I start to lose my muse to blog, I better get this blog updated.
Headed down to many places on Friday with Fauzi and Izzat - specifically the entire stretch of Orchard. Explored the two newly opened malls. Namely, Orchard Central Mall and ION Orchard. Took 'Wendy' out and started snapping pictures. I am no professional photographer alright. Hah!
Explored Orchard Central Mall first. Seriously, there is nothing much around there. It is like all the shops that people would least likely to visit all in one mall (with an exception of one or two of course). Apart from the public lounge area and the interesting express escalators, which jump up from the 3rd floor to the 7th, the view from the top was awesome. Never have I seen the entire stretch of Orchard Road from that height. Breath-taking? Yup! They had another express escalator from the 7th floor to the 11th, but it was closed.
Orchard Central Mall also houses the tallest indoor Via Ferrata in the world! Sadly, I was too awed by it that I did not managed to take a picture of it. Haha!
One more thing. I kinda liked the concept of the public toilets. It felt like we were in a hotel room. The inside? Just like a hotel room with dark wood all over! With no beds of course! Haha! Pretty neat place. Was too embarrassed to take 'Wendy' out to take pictures; especially with strangers doing their small little business at the urinals. Hahaha!
Got rather bored there, so finally we made our way to ION Orchard. By then, I was rather beat that I abandoned 'Wendy' for a while = no pictures of ION.
Have anyone of you went in there? I felt insulted in a good way. Haha! Segmentation was hugely present! The mall comprises of 8 shopping levels. 4 of which are basements. And the remaining, floors 1 to 4. From 1 to 4 is where all the high-end brands are - Giorgio Armani, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana etc. Whereas the levels "below the ground" were where the affordable brands are located. Seclusion from the rich and famous! Hahaha! Well, it is just my opinion. Maybe they set out to satisfy both the rich and the not so rich. Needless to say about its architecture because it was magnificent!
I will not go all out to do a promo for that mall. If you wanna know more about it just click here.
Headed to Topman to get my tops and I must say the decision-making was a difficult one. For those who have gone shopping with me, you will know what I mean. I am quite fussy or rather fickle-minded when it comes to shopping. Hahaha!
Took the express lane up to the MRT station (which was situated below ION Orchard itself), met Fidah and Nina and trained down to Eunos. Fairuz fetched us up and had supper somewhere near Bedok Police Headquarters.
Had a great catch-up session with them nonetheless though I was beat. Many things gonna happen this week and next. So, gonna gear up and be ready for what may come charging towards me.
Ciao!
P/S: I wanna change my blog's skin, but can't seem to find the time to do it. Sigh! Never thought I would be this busy.
