for the past wk, went to alot of places of worship in sg... all cos of the uccd project... not exactly giving myself alot of choices by going to these places, but just tat dun u find places of worship of diff religions very interesting? and it's not an everyday thing tat one can go to such holy places...
went to the sikh temple last tues with jac, hf, lj, jq and gurdip... was a very interesting trip there... really had an enriching lesson frm gurdip... hahahha... managed to eat the prayer food too... quite nice leh...
went to the sultan mosque near arab st there this tues with mabel and lp... but when we reach there, it was 1550 le, and the mosque closes at 1600, so didn't manage to go in... took some pics of the exterior before we went shopping at tat area... arab st is really interesting.... whole street full of textile seller....
after shopping there, we went to the shophses behind parco there to eat taiwan "snacks"... tried the smelly tofu... not bad la... but it's not too diff frm the usual tofu in taste la... tot will be very diff... next time muz go geylang to try the smelly tofu there...
eat finish already, we went shopping at parco... mainly it being going to missha la... lp went to buy the nail polish there... still considering to get a ficial foam frm there... heard it's not bad... hahahha... when i'm richer...
since the mosque isn't open on tues, we went there again yest... but this time rd, only me and mabel went there cos lp is going for the blood drive in sch... when we reached there, saw a grp of jap students coming out of the mosque... hahaha... we're actually glad to see a tour grp there... make us look less alien there... but nv join them la... cos dun understand chim jap... hahahaha...
need to sign in at the entrance there... hahaha... so funny lor... cos we very paisei to put as singaporeans, so we wrote ourselves as taiwanese... hahahaha... was hoping to meet a grp of western tourists... so tt the tour is conducted in eng which we both understand... and just right, soon after we went into the mosque came a grp of angmo tourists... stood near to them to hear wat the tour guide says... hahhha... kinda being sneaky... hehehe... took a few pics there before going to arab st again... but this time rd, we only went to the mama shop there... really old stuff can be found there lor... things tat when we're young we used to eat... then it's very hard to find it now lor... anyone remembers eating choc in a doramon box with a toy in the box with the choc? yeap... it's sold there too... so long nv see it le lor... then the sweets there hor... really sold in bulk one... fruit plus was sold in a mixture of flavours and in a very very big bag... was so tempted to buy... but got no money... hehehe...
anyway, went to the chinese temple today with jq, alvin, jl and sal... cos sal is doing on buddhism... went to a jewish synagogue too.. cos alvin is doing on it... but didn't managed to go in... cos the person say today got service... then cannot entertain us but ask us to fax them our particulars so tat they can arrange for tour... not bad la... but it seems so small and tucked at a very ulu place... is really very curious bout tat religion... cos the building doesn't show much about the religion... hahaha... tat's why ask alvin to put me in the list when he's going to the place of worship for the jews...
so far going to all these places really broaden my knowledge of these religions in sg... all their dos and duns... wat they belief etc...
ok la... gonna go do more research le... tml need to show her wat we've done so far... but then... my bloody printer got no ink... how to print?? hahaha... contemplating to save everything and bring the laptop to show her... hehehe...
see how first la...
ciaoz...
