1 Day in JB and the 6% GST

Was on leave today,
And decided to go JB to pick up some stuff (actually only contact lens)

Day started off by cabbing down to Serangoon North Ave 5 to meet my colleague for passing over some fiber cables.

Then Mrt down to China Square to collect TF4 AD31 Optimus Prime which I bought earlier on. I think this piece is a "Potential to sell-item" when the next Transformers Movie show up.



Then I went on to shop around in Chinatown OG. Several TF items are on great sale such as Leader Class Jetfire at $35. However, I decided not to get any after much consideration. Some kreo figures are as low as $1.80. Thumbs up!
: )

Took Bus 190 all the way to Choa Chu Kang and finally to Woodlands Checkpoint. Little or no crowd was seen today at both customs. Power of weekdays!!

I changed my RM in City Square, RM rate was 1SGD to RM2.60,
I know rate wasn't good, luckily I only changed SGD50.

And so,
I Started off with food.

First, Taiwan Shi Lin
Xxl Chicken + Mee Suan RM15.50


Went up to Watson and get my mum a facial cream at RM18.50
and myself 3 pairs of contact lens at RM55



Decided to go arcade and have a few rounds of basketball game, however they changed to membercard format instead of token, therefore I decided to pass it for today. Nevertheless, I found something interesting there and it is my favourite childhood anime, Dragonball !! didn't know why it wasn't power on, else I would have a few rounds of it. Haha


Journey continues and I watched FAST AND FURIOUS 7 alone. Haha. I think the movie is so so only with those usual car knock car, car racing, fighting scene and Mexico style racing song. Other than these, Nothing really special. 1x ticket at RM13


Starbuck was my next destination where I stayed there to edit and update my Black Studio Website. Luckily, sale was still decent in my Black Studio Caurosell portal. Sale from Ebay drop to zero since Caurosell came on board. Hai...

Anyway, 1x Green Tea Lattle RM14.30


It was about 630pm and I decided to head back home, was walking toward CIQ and I saw Xu Liu Shan.

And i ask myself "how can I miss my favourite mango desert?"
so I got myself a mango drink on the go due to time constraint. RM8.35


Reached SG safe n sound. 
"A person to JB mission" was declared success and fruitful. Haha

Some thoughts for today. 

1. A person travelling CAN be fun too.
2. How good it is if every day is like today.
3. All these can only be achieve with Money.
4. And the GST increase in Malaysia do has some impact on spending. 

Happy reading, 
: )
