Day 6 (8-3-2009) - Arcade

Nothing much happened today because it was a “free and easy” day. All we did was more shopping.

I had a very light lunch, buying a “Singapore Style Burger”. After that we went to the arcade to hang out and wait for the other group to reach.

Somehow, the arcade has a kind of “casino” feeling. There is this game, whereby you insert a coin and you have a chance to win many more coins. In Singapore, I think arcades only have one or two of these games. But here, the arcade is full of this game and the sound of coins dropping makes it feel like a casino. What’s more, unlike in Singapore, they have lots of arcade staff walking around and making sure everything is going rite. I dun think they do their jobs very well though, because at first look, I can already spot so many people kicking and pushing the machines to force the coins to drop. I found this kind of funny.

I think everyone bought at least one item tonight. As for me, I bought an extra jacket because wearing one is not enough. And even though I already have two, the other one is just simply too thick. I want to look more casual, to be honest.

I will probably remember today as the day I felt slightly feverish and worried about getting sick. Other than that, it was just a normal day.
