A Deepavali Monday Holiday

 Today is a holiday due to Deepavali.

Quite glad to have this extra day of rest.

We started out heading out early in the morning to Parkway Parade to buy some housewarming gifts for the wifey’s boss.

We ate breakfast at FunToast at PP and bumped into MP Sun Xueling! She’s so wholesome and even afforded us a friendly smile. Not sure what she was doing there with her daughter. I was surprised that she didn’t have any bodyguards around whatsoever.

Anyway we all had eggs and toast for breakfast, wifey bought her stuff and then we were off to Serangoon to drop her off at her boss’s new landed home.

After dropping her off, I  priced a familiar road right where we were. It is called Jalan Riang. This place happens to be the first house my parents bought after they got married and the house they owned when I was born. 

I don’t have many memories of the place but I quickly messaged my parents to see if they remember the unit number. With that, I found the actual unit and it is totally transformed now. Not much is recognizable at all.

After that, me and the kids went to Nex Mall to chill and wait for wifey. We just chilled at the library until the wifey was done.

We then picked up the wifey and headed to Grantral Mall. What kinda crap name is this mall?! 

We wanted to go bouldering and this was one of the places we thought of, but it was a little crowded, so we went opposite the road to a joint we’ve been before called Boulder Movement.

There we bought passes for the four of us and ended up bouldering for two and a half hours! The kids loved it and my son is slowly but surely turning into an avid boulderer.

When our arms couldn’t take it anymore, we headed off for dinner at Din Tai Fung at Tai Seng. Been a while and it was nice.

Then we headed back to Grantral Mall and went to this Chinese supermarket called Scarlett. We actually bought some sugar fruits on a stick, which was way too sweet.

Finally it was back home to try the new games that wifey bought for her new Nintendo Switch.

What an eventful day!
