VivoCity

Firstly, I'm not going to the Thailand Service Learning Trip anymore, if anyone would still be asking me. Reason is due to poor results (of course, there are many other reasons behind the decision). So yeah. Those who are going, have fun =D

So... my family and I went to VivoCity today and just spent around 2 hours there. Not that we intended to spend such a long time there (time is a subjective matter; for me, 2 hours is quite long), but the deals at Giant were too good to resist.

So we did some unexpected grocery shopping. Best thing yet: Spend $20 and get free loaf of bread. Real good deal, IMHO. Yeah. But the mall is real huge and real cool. I like those groovy curves going all around the place.

Curvy...

As I've said, it's huge, and it's also buzzing with people. ESPECIALLY the food court (oh, why wasn't that a major surprise?), which was split into the halal (Banquet) and non-halal (Kopitiam) areas.

And the Kopitiam card is a novel idea... in fact it's rather genius. Cash-free and all, and stallholders don't have to find any change. AND you get a 10% discount with the card (the blue one). But if you have a huge family, or a huge crowd or group of people, one card will not be enough (we found that out today). But it will be rather stupid to have 2 cards and waste some extra money just for convinence.

So it's a good and bad thing, if you look at it with a larger group. But then again, it will be the path to the future food court... and the future world, where there's only contactless cash cards and such.

And the haze is getting bad again. Up and down. Up and down.

Just like life.

Up and down.
