I have a lovely day with Gladys today. She asked me to go to the book fair and i was so glad that i went! Found Monica Ali's Brick Lane at only 6 bucks!! 6 bucks!!! It was such a steal. MPH sells it at $16. Poor Gladys, she was so full of hope on getting bargains for the stuff that she wanted to get but came out empty handed out of the fair.
We walked to City Hall and checked out several bookstores along the way but she had no luck with her books. Had lunch at Out Of The Pan. Checked out more books stores, had ice cream and went to Bras Brasah. Finally she found her books there. Went to Bugis, took neoprints.. ( Yes, i took neoprints :P) Mom called, wanting to meet for dinner. So we took the long ride to Causeway point and went to Bottle Tree Village. I really like that place. Its like a well kept secret of Sembawang. My Sembawang. It has an open patio and a gateway to the jetty. A good place for families. Food wasnt that awesome but it is not that bad either. Bascially, its just a zhee cha restaurant next to the beach. However, if you dont drive, it will be hard to get there.
I just feel happy today. Maybe its the sugar boost or good company. She always makes me laugh. My little strawberry shortcake has grown up. *Happy Sigh* Happy Days.
