Glimpse of Tampines One

wahaha...
Had a glimpse of Tampines One this evening... hoho...
Although there was sign not for public, but hack it, cheong!
hehe...

There were quite of alot contractors, bosses, workers, cleaners, furniture and DUST!
Many were there doing their last touch-up for the official opening tomorrow.

Realised the walking area is about the same as Tampines Mall.
20-30% of the shops are selling Japs related stuffs (Wine, toys, food).
Saw UNI-QLO, the temptation to buy this brand clothes isnt as great as compared when I was in Japan. haha...
Glad to see Challenger is back to Tampines, at least I dont have to travel too far to "fire-fight" my computer... haha...

I think there is this place called 新天地 at top level. Suspect is a KTV lounge. YEAH!! Really miss a KTV place in Tampines after KBOX at Pavilion was demolished! Hope this new place is not too expensive! wahaha....

Another thing that came to my attention was this claim fountain that can be found at B1. Dont really know how to descibe, just feel is unique. haha...

Lastly... According to news, all shops are rented. I was just thinking will all the shops still be rented after 6-12months time...
