Tataa..Here is torji - motor siji/first motorbike =). We bought this bike 1 month after Arya's born. The first comment from our friend how come i just gave birth and we bought a motorbike?? Hehehe..it's not that we're being selfish. We can afford cheap car in US, nice powerful car in OZ (3.500cc) but not in SG. Soooo expensive and plus where to go in this tiny islandcWith this torji, my nursing agenda was on track, so far.

I can't imagine taking torji to go to work if I'm in Jakarta..Thinking back about transportation to work, I have 6 unforgettable moments, based on preference:
1. ride a bike along the beach in St. Kilda (2004)
2. 20 minutes walk in Singapore (2005-2006)
3. take a limo - company's shuttle in Rye Brook (2003)
4. pass midnite..(sighh life as an auditor), on the way back to Tebet, I was stunned in the middle of the Kampung Melayu bridge when I saw Tebet's beach. I drove back to my uncle house in Kalimalang. Luckily, I rented second floor room in Tebet. (2001)
5. take ojeg sepeda (bike taxi) for 2 times when I did audit assignment in Sunter. The area around the building was flooded. So with laptop bag in my lap, wearing skirt and formal jacket, I need to ensure that the water didn't enter my high heels. (2001)
6. drive from kalimalang to kuninganc1.5hr straight urgh..traffic in toll!! You paid and you stuck in traffic (2001)
Ups sorry..it become mommy's story instead of parenthood..

mommy, rescue me please..don't know what daddy's doing?!!

life after Vivo City

I admitted that the tittle was exaggerated. =p It's just happened that the newest and biggest mall in this island located few doorstep away, around 20 minutes brisk walk (no stroller to push). Last Saturday, we followed the crowd, the whole Cabie 02100. Unbelievable!! You can't even walk straight. I compared with Sunday morning in Senayan, Jakarta or walk in Time Square, NYC. However those 2 sites are outdoor, this one is indoor!
Maybe 90% of Singaporean went down to check the hottest place, especially with the worsening haze, people tends to stay indoor aka shopping/window shopping. Almost all the brands are similar with the one in Orchards, some exception for ex. Gap (quite expensive compare to every corner Gap in Manhattan)!!
After quick browse, we did weekly shopping in Giant. We tried to call a cab afterward...hehehe..diapers are heavy you know and we can't do 20 minutes brisk walk. The taxi took so long because of traffic jam ckckckck So we cancelled the cab and walked back. Put all the shopping (including one whole watermelon and 2 big diapers - thought we went back by cab) in stroller. After 4 hours fighting with the crowd, all of us were so exhausted including the baby. As a proof, the baby was slept in till 8 o'clock on Sunday...
On Sunday noon, despite foggy Singapore, we went to Suntec which was unbelievably quite. Wow..!! When we went back, again another jam in Telok Blangah Rd.
I guess we need to get used to the jam at least till Christmas shopping!!
