What do you do in Singapore?

I know everyone's been dying to know, what the eff do you DO in Singapore when it's a random Saturday and you're not vacationing off this little island and you've seen the sights.... Well, I'm sure you'll be shocked, but you join the Singaporean herd and SHOP! But you don't just go the mall, wander around for an hour or two; no, no, no- you go down to the MRT station pack yourself (and your stuff) into a shiny metal tube filled with hundreds of your best friends and zip off to the gloriously sterile, air-conditioned, horrendously packed MALL. There's many to choose from and if you're lucky you'll even be able to walk between them without the need to actually go outside and experience 'fresh air'. You'll also get the wonderful experience of negotiating throngs of slow walking people with apparently no sense of each other or where they are going; perfect Brownian motion on a macro scale.

It doesn't end here, after you've spent a good few hours wandering for something that no one seems to carry (cheap plastic chaise lounges - because that would mean that you would be sitting outside and why in god's name would you want to do that???), you get back on the aforementioned metal tube and zip off to mall #3 or maybe it's #4, and begin the slog through the masses again - and since it's Singapore we've not had to actually leave an air-conditioned space to do this. We finally make it to the Giant Hypermarket - yes, it's beyond Super, it's HYPER! And yes they have something that will sort of work, not a chaise lounge and not a chair, sort of an odd mix between the two - it'll have to work- we're both tired, hungry, annoyed and ready for a nice relaxing trip away from people (I hear a beach calling my name)- thankfully we found a brewery that has a very decent IPA, and by the time I had finished that I was back in my happy place and all was again right with the world. -Dave
