Today is my another day of grocery shopping. I went to Westfield Marion Shopping centre in the afternoon alone. It had been ages since I went there. Hmmm... Let me think. I would reckon it was about 4 months since I last been there. As I was back in Singapore on 5 February 2008 till 17 April 2008 for my Independent Studies (part of my bachelor degree), was in the city of Adelaide for a couple of days before I went over to Port Augusta from 20 April till 6 June 2008 for my Community/Public Health Placement, thus it would be around 4 months since I last been there.

My new Watch
Today, I walked past a stall selling watches. I decided to buy a new watch. I recalled my old watch (a pair of couple 25-hours brand watches, which I'd got for my ex-boyfriend and myself years ago) was spoilt. I still use this watch as it was of good quality rather than having feelings for my my ex-boyfriend. I've moved on ages ago (to be exact my heart gave up on him on the day we broke off). Although there were good and bad memories, I would just treat it as an experience in my love life.
Anyway, old watch was spoilt. The glass of the watch cracked when I was in Port Augusta. When I was doing some readings at home in Port Augusta, the glass panel of the watch fell off suddenly. Initially, I had no clue what was that transparent circular glass panel. I looked around the place and realized that it was from my watch. During that time, I felt quite uncomfortable as I usually use my watch more often than my mobile phone. However, I had to solely rely to my mobile phone to keep track of time. I went to the only repair shop in Port Augusta to try to get it fixed. However, the person said that it would cost me at least AU$30 for the plastic like panel or AU$60 for the glass panel. He said that my watch was of a good quality, hence getting the glass panel for the watch would be worth the price.
I remembered very clearly that I actually went to repair the glass before coming back to Australia early this year. It cost me less than SGD$20 to change the battery and glass panel of the watch. However, the cost of the repair for a watch in Australia is so expensive. Hence, I decide to send my watch to Jack to ask him to help me get my watch fix in Singapore. *Thanks dear. Muacks*
Anyway, it doesn't matter to me now. I've got a new watch. I simple love it. The watch has white leather stripes, stainless steel and has some handmade diamonds on the side of the watch too. The watch costed AU$20. An extra battery was provided and there was a one year guarantee too.
The following is the pictures of my new watch.
