Chinatown.

"Chinatown,or foreign town"

The streets of Chinatown still retain its rustic feel. That nostalgia of the halcyon days that was precedes us. Yet, as I look around, Chinatown is gloomy. She is sad. She has gone through a makeover that has turned her from what was the centre of the Chinese culture to what is the sprawling tourism hub. Shops filled with goods to entice foreigners to purchase. Prices that are exorbitant. Chinatown has lost herself. Like a woman that ages gracefully, she has developed her wrinkles. Yet, like a woman that thinks aging is ungraceful, she underwent Botox.

Though, this lost of heritage has be quite a sad phenomenon, a may well be this ugly truth that the new face of Ann Siang Hill is great. Rows of shops that sit quietly by the road. The beauty of the place has been restored, although not to its former glory. It has become a shopping arcade. There a nice little cafes and restaurants along Ann Siang Hill. A perfect dating location. Fred Perry has also dug his claws into Ann Siang and set up a store there. Though the store has been around for some time (notably being the first store in Singapore), it most certainly surpasses the looks of the other Fred Perry stores found in Orchard.

I was trying to look for style:nordic but to no avail. Though, I was quite delighted in seeing Front Row for myself. Front Row is a store that stocks A.P.C (a french brand) and it is moving to a new premise in Raffles Hotel. I think it will replace the Louis Vuitton that I heard was moving out. Okay, I'd be going to school now. Yet another day of PW... The life of a teenage student in Singapore.
