Comparing the IKEAs: The New and the Old
Over the weekend, we went to two different IKEAs. The old one at Alexandra Village, and the new one at Tampines.
On Saturday we met up with Samuel and Andrew and Anthony for a spot of rounding in the sun. After getting suitably sunburnt and very near to getting heatstroke, we went for dinner.
9 people and one puny little tofu.
But what the heck. We were hungry!
After this dinner, Anthony had a sudden urge to go to IKEA, so Lazychoo and I accompanied him to the one at Tampines.
And boy, was it packed.
The outside...
The queue..
And the inside...
This would be us camwhoring while waiting in the queue to get in.
Didn't get much pictures inside because it was so packed and we were so busy dodging elbows that we didn't think of whipping out the camera.
Met my Leeling jiejie and my godmother there though. Such a surprise.
Lazychoo was craving for IKEA chicken wings so we headed over to the Swiss cafe and queued up for about half an hour before we were told there were no more chicken wings.
Dammit.
This was all that was left when we decided to whip out the cameras.
Then on Sunday, we went squeezing along with the mass of bodies who, like us, decided to go to the Big Boys Toys + SITEX exhibitions.
By the time Anthony got his hard drive and Lazychoo got his HDD casing and some thingamabob for the Bluetooth and we finally got out of the halls, I had on a suitably black face for being pushed around by dirty old men.
I hate people touching me. Especially dirty old men and aunties who don't know how to keep their elbows by their sides.
Anyway, since Lazychoo was still craving for IKEA chicken wings we went to the one at Alexandra to avoid the crowd.
No difference. It was still packed. Dammit.
From the carpark,
Me, messing around with Lazychoo's sunglasses.
Giving the really kiam-pa face.
We walked around IKEA aimlessly and I got inspired to buy a small house of my own. Anybody got any details? Any real estate agents to make it possible for me to get my own small cosy little one bedroom apartment?

Oh, and I absolutely love one of the show kitchens. It's so.... nice and cosy.
We found a LOT of those wooden toys in the shape of people that can be twisted into a desired position, so Lazychoo and Anthony embarked on a mini project.
The outcome of their project,
And the outcome of mine.
While finally having our chicken wings, Benguin walked past with this small heart-shaped soft toy dangling from his belt buckle. He told us that some people at the door were giving it out. We got jealous, and went to look for it.
Ta-dum!
Ta-Dee!
Ta-Doo~
And yes, even my darling Tracy wasn't spared.
