I went to IKEA Alexandra with two of my editors.
We were shopping around for new office decor. We moved into our new space last month. It’s kind of a bare space, so we were given a little something to do something about it.

For the office, I got myself a Kvart desk lamp. I like mood lighting.
For my new place, I got:
- A laundry drying rack (expandable, perfect for the condo balcony)
- A hanging dryer for socks and underwear (the one that looks like an Octopus)
- A laundry flexible basket
- New bedsheets… A MUST (I can’t go on using old things can I?)
- An IKEA memory pillow – firm type
- An IKEA softer pillow to compliment the firm one
- One more HOLMO lamp bringing my amazing collection to FOUR.
- New quilt cover, a green one with stripes… green reminds me of RENEWAL.
Took a cab from IKEA Alexandra to my place in Geylang… and daaaaaymm it set me back by almost SGD 20.00. Argh.
For dinner I tried the corner coffee shop and ordered Salted Fish Fried Rice. I was eating it by myself and still trying to get used it. Sigh.
