I’m in Singapore to visit my family and friends with Sunshine.
My kind sister Lulu has been our maid, following us around and carrying stuff for us like a camel. I love her to death.
And she also got mistaken many times as my maid. No kidding.
I do not like crowded places (i.e: just about everywhere) and the people who love to push their way through crowds, to enter malls, to board trains/ buses etc (i.e: just about every person). So basically, as long as I stay at my mom’s home, I’m happy.
But I still needed to satisfy my hunger for yarn.
I bought a full set of Addi Turbo Knitting Needles. I don’t know what came over me…. but it’s a very good buy because it is really really cheap!
Almost $10 less than what I would have paid if I bought them from home.
And those people at Ondori (that’s the name of the company) are such nice people. Sadly, they only sell yarn in bulk and I didn’t have the cash with me, nor the guts to buy so many balls at one go. (Nad has eyes following me around. It’s called My Conscience.) The boss even gave us a lift to another mall to buy yarn.
I love Ondori.
I also went to Kinokuniya to check out the Japanese knitting books.
Wakarimasen deshita. 
I don’t understand their instructions and their patterns are a tad different from the UK/ US ones that I’m so used to. Although I do understand a little Japanese, this was too complicated for me. So I did not spend money on those magazines.
I bought more UK and German knitting magazines instead.
We also went to Spotlight to buy cheap bamboo/cotton yarn. I bought a few balls of sock yarn from Tanglin Mall too. (Am going home to dye the white ones.)
I miss home. I miss Nad. I miss the doggies and the silly cat. I would miss Lulu and my mom alot… I wish I can ship them over.
I’m sleepy.
That’s why this post sounds spastic.
Going off to get used to my new Addi Turbos. They’re a little too slippery for me now. Maybe I just need to practise my knitting even more.
