Strolling along BQ/CQ

on Thursday, January 31, 2008

Yesterday was a self-explore OTOT run along S’pore river. It has been a zero mileage in the pass 1 week. So I didn’t expect much out of myself, but am all charge up and go.

The CNY festive deco is up along Esplanade bridge and I can sense that it’s going to be pretty happening real soon. Must go there to kepo a bit next week :)

Cruising slowly along S’pore river as usual but this time round, it’s probably still bright, the sun hasn’t set yet and in addition that I’m on my own, I’m not on a fast or even tempo pace. I happen to look literally almost everything in my surrounding. From people, to buildings, to statues…etc. All along when running with CBD gang, firstly it’s already dark, secondly, I’m all focusing on keeping my pace well so that I’m not too far away from the front pack. And it’s all about just me and the path in front of me. Little did I know, that there are soooo many nice, Porsche apartment along BQ/CQ. I was under the impression that all BQ/CQ have, are just restaurants, pubs. Apartment have never come across my mind. Keeping a slow pace all the way till Zouk, I decided to u-turn. On the way back, I came across another nice apartment and it just caught my attention from far. Looking at it from a distance, it’s as if I’ve come to a small little town in a western country. I decided to detour into that small little town to take a peek what’s inside. There’re Porsche restaurant with all the ang mohs around and there are high class shops, music schools, clinics…etc It’s like a mini hdb estate but in a Porsche style. Trying to get my sense of direction right. I stroll along the surrounding. It’s along Muhammad Sultan road and the other side of it is facing the river. I looked up. Wah!!! The balcony…..so huge!! More than half the size of a bedroom! That is ROBERTSON WALK. Now then I know. Always heard about Robertson xxx. So this is where Robertson xxx is….. So suah gu!

Slowly make my way back to Suntec PF. Spotted Meteor and JamesSoh the min I step in. The two were glueing their eyes on the TV while working out. Stand right next to both to kepo for a while before I head off for shower.....
