An Afternoon at 313@Somerset & Orchard Central with Eugene!

Today’s Schedule – Meet Eugene at Ochard MRT Station at around 2:30PM.
Followed by 2012 at 3:45PM.

Some Christmas Decorations along Orchard Road and right outside Ngee Ann City there was a huge Lous Vuitton displayed telling people that an expansion is coming soon haha.

 

Hitachi-san a.k.a Santa.

 

MMMmmm..

 

A yummy tree lol

Since it was lunch time…or around 2:30PM (my breakfast time) it was time to grab a bite. So it was off to Takashimaya Food Court and the dish of the day?

Nasi Padang!

 

We planned to watch 2012 at Cathay Cineleisure at 3:45PM but by the time we got there the only colour we saw next to 2012 was RED = Sold Out lol. I was a little surprise to see it as sold out as the show has been out for quite awhile already – hasn’t it? oO

 

313@Somerset

Anyways, since we had time to spare we both headed off to the Newly Opened Mall – 313@Somerset ! As we entered the mall we could still smell the fresh smell of paint. mmmmm.

 

Big UNI QLO store inside.

 

Nice Christmas Tree at the Top Floor.

 

Very Eco-Friendly Recycling Bins located around the mall. :)

 

The Entire Lvl 5 was a Food Court – Food Republic. Very Nice & Spacious :)

 

Now from this picture and the above one, what exactly do you see that makes this mall in a way, different from others?

Well, if you aren’t observent enough – its the carpet! lol
If I’m not wrong, it was Levels 2, 3, and 4 that were carpetted – See?

Ta-da!

 

Marché Restaurant

 

And a Thai restaurant – Flying Chillies :)

Ochard Central (OC)

Then after we were done checking out 313@Somerset we headed just next door to the Orchard Central (OC).

Eugene heading up to the 11th Floor Garden. :)

 

Orchard Road.

 

Finally reaching the 11th Floor after the long escalator ride. There was a display of Art titled – Let’s Go to Paradise of Glorious Tulips, 2009 – in the Garden by Yayoi Kusama:)

Here is another one of my part-time model with the Tulips as well as the buildings & cranes as the backdrop, Smile! :)

 

The Youth Park near to the Somerset MRT Station.

 

They were dancing/turning in the direction of the wind :)

 

Another view of the buildings that surround Orchard Road. But this time the picture was taken on the 12th Floor lol.

 

Then it was time to head back down to the shops and while walking around a X’mas Tree was spotted! haha.

Small but very decorated :)

 

Indoor Rock Climbing.

 

The Main Christmas Tree in Orchard Central….Very Tall…

 

Photographer Eugene all the way from Malaysia demostrating how it must be done in order to capture the entire tree in a shot. Apperently, mine wasn’t good enough – Yup my tree was cut :(  

 

Another set of escalators from the outside of the building to the inside.

 

So it was time for Eugene to head back home for dinner (it was about 5:40PM already) and we headed to the Bus Stop outside Plaza Singapura. Along the way there were Christmas decorations :)

It was this junction that we needed to cross to get to Plaza Singapura.

 

While waiting for the Traffic light to turn green for us to cross….*snap*at the red ball lol

 

Yup, this one.
Then…

 

Yup another one lol. As we crossed the road guess who we unexpectedly but expectedly found?? lol 

You must Scroll down to see ——–

 

 

 

 

 

Yes it is ???? David-san lol
(for some unknown reason Japanese translates to ‘?’) :(

So Eugene went back on his bus and as for me? I stayed awhile inside Plaza Singapura waiting for 6:30PM to come so that hopefully I can see the X’mas decorations on the road light up. And true enough, by 6:30 the lights went on haha.

 

More Red Balls :)

 

 

Then it was off to the Cathay to checkout if they had a Christmas Tree to take a picture.

But it turned out they didn’t have one just the following decorations around the mall.

 

 

Then it was off to Tampines to meet up with my parents for dinner! :)
