Been busy today. Woke up at 10am, had breakfast then met up with Amanda and Daphne to go to Summerhill Village. We wanted to go to the Target there to have a look at the winter jackets. Spent quite a while deciding on which jacket to pick. In the end, I chose a grey belted one. Looks really smart:D After we chose our jackets, we decided to walk around. That's when the real fun began. Target has everything, clothes, shoes, toys, homeware, DVDs, video games, handphones, make-up... You name it, Target's got it.

Chanced upon this while walking through the make-up section. So THAT'S how she does it.
Anyway, I had to leave early at 3.45pm cos my relative invited me to her place at Armadale for dinner. Took a tram down to Parliament station before changing to a train. I learnt many things about the stupid Connex trains in my hour and a half long journey there. Unlike the MRT in Singapore, the trains don't stop at every single stop in the weekends and the doors do not automatically open for you. How the hell did I find that out? Well, every possible mishap that could occur happened to me today! I took the correct "stop at all stations" train to Armadale. But as the train stopped, I was there standing stupidly at the door, waiting for it to bloody open. I knew something was up when it didn't after a long while. My suspicions were affirmed when the stupid train left the station. KNN. I asked some woman sitting nearby and she was like, "You have to open the door yourself". Smart.
So I got off a stop after and decided that, "Hey! I should take a train in the opposite direction!" Well, the stupid train I boarded was the weekend express train, so it passed by 4 or 5 stops(including mine of course) and I ended up in South Yarra. Eff-ing shit!!!!! By then, I was seriously pissed and made sure to take extra care in checking that I got on an "all stops" train and opened the bloody train door.
When I finally reached Armadale 40mins from the intended arrival time, my relative(I have no idea how she's related to me) picked me up and we walked over to her place. I think I mentioned to a lot of people that I know my Chia-side of the family is huge and that the Lee-side has like no one. Well, I found out where the Lee side is already! They're all in frickin Melbourne! The whole lot of us gathered for dinner. It's seriously been such a long time since I had home-cooked Chinese food.
After dinner, we all gathered to chit-chat about life and tell funny stories about Singlish. Everyone also attempted to pronounce "Genevieve" which then led to the younger 2nd generation Australian-Singaporeans making fun of the 1st gen about the Singlish way they pronounce things. Haha. That was a laugh. One of the relatives gave me a lift back after but not before they tar-paued curry for me:D:D
Tomorrow's Labour Day! But I still have classes. Crazy uni.
