A Travel Quickie
Okay. So last Tuesday a few fellowship friends and I, along with our group leader planned to go travel around. Our initial plan was only to visit SKS bookstore and have some decent dinner. We planned to have either dim sum or steamboat. Sounds interesting eh?
Since this is my first time to be in SKS, I find this bookstore interesting. It has a wide variety of Christian books, among which are C.S. Lewis’ works, John Piper’s, Philip Yancey’s, and many others. What interested me most was the complete box set of Lewis’ The Chronicles of Narnia–I simply wanted it yet I didn’t have enough cash, so to speak, as we’re planning to have dinner later on.
After leaving the wondrous world of SKS, we decided to have dim sum for dinner at Thomson Road. Not knowing our way, we started by looking for a bus–which we missed and the next one only came 25 minutes later. After waiting for some time we finally decided to go to Orchard and take MRT to Newton. From there we tried walking, yet decided to take another bus. This bus, which we believed will take us there, gave us a surprise–it led us to another place instead of our destination.
Lost, we tried to take another way–this time with a clue from our group leader that there’s this certain bus stopping right in front of our destination. So, with our remaining strength and spirit we traveled all the way to Bishan and took the bus there. Triumphantly, as we walk to the stall, this announcement greeted us:
Oh well. So we ended up having noodles for dinner and soyabean with cakwe–how to write this?–for supper. It was a tiring journey with an unexpected end, but we enjoyed it anyway.
