At the bus-stop Every morning, I wait at a bus-stop near my flat to take a bus to school. It is always very crowded. While waiting for the bus, I usually observe the people at the bus-stop. Some of them I have come to know by sight. One person who caught my attention is a tall and thin man wearing thick glasses. He always drops his files whenever his bus is coming. I guess that is because he is over- anxious to board the bus. Another person I have noticed is a shabbily-dressed old woman. Every morning, she carries one big bag full of pieces of cloth to the bus-stop. Once, she came with two big bags instead of one and she got stuck in the door of the bus. Luckily, the kind man with the thick glasses helped her to free herself. However, he dropped his files again while doing so. There is also a rude school-boy who always pushes his way up the bus instead of queuing up like the other passengers. This angers the other passengers. Once, he tried pushing his way past the old lady with the big bag. To my amusement, he was almost knocked down by the fat bag. There are indeed interesting things to note at a bus-stop if only one is observant. Talk about Shopping Centres. Shopping is an enjoyable experience for the Singaporeans. All shopping centres are crowded with people. This is because all the things one needs can be purchased in one shopping complex. Singapore is blessed with so many shopping centres which have supermarkets, departmental stores, restaurants and a chain of other retail shops specialising in specific and general products. Singaporeans find it convenient as when everything is available under one roof instead. Singapore’s major shopping complexes are situated in the Orchard area and others are scattered over satellite towns and new town areas. The major advantage of shopping in these complexes is that all items from foodstuffs to household utensils are available in different brands from different countries. One has a variety of choices, the healthy competition benefits everyone as quality products can be purchased at economical prices. Supermarkets offer vegetables, fish, meat, cutlery, crockery, stationery and textiles. The shopping complex provides various facilities to attract the customers. It provides a clean environment with full lights, air conditioning and the products neatly displayed. Convenient car parks and additional facilities such as food stalls and fast food outlets are also given. The shoppers are not bothered by the rain or sunshine when they are in the shopping centre. Shopping offers a few hours of relaxation from their daily routine jobs. Singapore becomes a shoppers’ paradise during the festival seasons especially during Christmas, New Year, Chinese New Year, Hariraya. .
