I was thinking about my times in my secondary school days when something struck my dull mind - how come some girls can fail their 2.4 KM run? Well, i'm referring to no one in particular anyway, so don't be offended, yeah? Afterall, you can ask why some guys can't pull themselves up the pull-up bar since it seems so easy to do so, 'cause i'm categorised under that.

Do you realise that when you shop ladies, you walk for more than 2.4 KM? I had an experience today whereby I have to follow my "girlfriends" to shop around Orchard Road. Every shop was left with no mercy as the girls hunted them down one by one. Oh well, it's a norm to come out empty-handed nowadays right? Yet, even in the GSS period, we still can't afford some stuffs. take for example this:

"LAST DAY OFFER!"
Original price: $300
Discounted price: $ 267

does it make any great difference to the size of the hole that's burning your pocket? GSS my foot ah. but don't be deterred by it 'cause some stuffs ARE REALLY a good bargain. You just have to have a better vision to detect them. I understand that Singapore has one of the highest myopia cases around but let's not make that an excuse, shall we? i bet that when it boils down to money matters, our "kiasuism" can be matched by no one. even the slightest hint of sale offered by the shop at the dark and murky corner, situated in the lonely alley, will be lightened up by a trail of Singaporeans who are constantly defying their myopic characteristic in exchange for hawk eyes.

Ahh... let's not digress people. Let's just say you hadjust received your pay and would really, really love to go shopping!!! So, you begin your journey from the Cineleisure to Heeren to Paragon to Wisma Atrium to Wheelock Place and finally... to Far East Plaza, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that the whole distance covered is more than 2.4 KM, does it?

"But we still have to finish under 17 minutes to pass the test!" one young lady screamed in disgust.

Okay fine. What makes you run for a shops that screams "SALE!" at every level of the shopping centre, rush to save your overflowing bladder before filling up your growling stomachs with a filling meal? I bet they all can be covered under 17 minutes albeit the longer distance covered.

No wonder girls are from Venus and men from Mars. We're all just 2 different creatures after all. Maybe we can have a mencare centre in malls to accommodate the Martians while the Venusians let their hair down for more catfights and travels at breakneck speeds. Oh well, it's just a suggestion...
