The Pulse Of Singapore

by JermynToh on 19 March, 2009

This is my 5th or 6th trip back to SG since the beginning of 2009 and I think I’m finally getting the hang of living in Singapore again.

The pace of life after work is a little faster and consumerised.

Shops and bargains abound everywhere enticing us to whip out our wallet every now and then.

A friend advised me that I needed to keep 2 homes, 2 sets of everything in order to make this KL and SG duality work.

So I’ve been buying lots of things that I didn’t bring back … going along with the consumerism that makes Singapore a centre for shopping.

But its still nags me …. what about riches in other aspects of life?

yups .. this will only work if u have a “walk in” home in both cities. It is quite fun actually. hahaha ..

riches in other aspects of life can be found even in the most “consumed” of societies .. it is just a matter of having the eyes to see, the ears to hear and the heart to feel. good luck !!!

I am still waiting for ur presense in bodypump class HOR !!! gegegegege
