Woke up at 9 today to go to the famous "Queen Victoria Market". Ate a small bowl of maggi mee with one free range[chickens are allowed to run free and lay wherever they want to] egg and bok choy[we know it as 'Xiao Bai Cai'/Small White Veg BUT Its not at all small ^^]. Left the house at 10.30, we were originally suppose to leave the house at 9.30 but there's 3 ladies in the house SO...^^ Reached the market at 11 ^^ The moment at step out of the car, the wind messed up my hair :( Even though I had one thick jacket on, I still felt the wind, It was really strong. Earlier at the house I didn't listen to my parents advice to wear socks and I regretted it. My toes were already numb from a five minutes walk. There were many different areas in the market, there was an area for clothes, meat, vegetables, fish, seafood etc. Its basically like a open shopping centre + grocer. Some clothes which are sold there are even quite expensive. I saw an Ugg 'store' and I've wanted to buy one for a very long time. So I showed Mummy and Daddy the store, the moment they saw the price, they said NO!! :( Daddy said he wanted to see the vegetables so we headed there instead. We bought a lot of vegetables for our dinner as Daddy wanted to eat chinese food. While walking around, I made a deal with Mummy. Mummy said she was going to buy me and Mei Mei two boots each, one for keeping our legs warm and another for dressing up. My deal was that I'll only buy one pair if she allow me to buy one pair of Ugg. It WORKED!!~~ I took a lot time deciding if I wanted to get the sand coloured one or the chestnut coloured one. In the end, I got the chestnut. Mei Mei saw me trying them on so she also decided to get one. Surprisingly, she got a pink one. We changed into our new Uggs and headed to the Meat Department. Saw a whole skinned goat and it wasn't a nice sight. Ate a Greek lunch before heading back home. On the way back, we heard on the radio that the winds were 100km/hr. OMGosh..
I helped vacuum the house, well only the living area before I got tired and stopped. I had to unpack the rest of my stuff so it still wasn't over. After unwrapping all my TIGHTLY bubble wrapped stuff [Haha~~], I decorated my shelf. Skyped with Yilin for a while before we had to log off. Had chicken pasta soup, scallops with broccoli, stir fried beef with capsicums with white jasmine rice. YUMMY!!~~ I'm now watching Step-Up 2: The Streets. ^^
Will blog again when I have the time. School's starting on Monday!!
Love,
Melanie
