Jurong Fish Market

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. This blog has come to a hiatus due to my return to Singapore. I mustn't associate its inactivity to the life of Singapore. Infact, my return to Singapore this time round has left alot of thoughts on me. Singapore has indeed become too tempting for me; a disturbance to my original plan. "Lord ... Are you speaking to me?"
Every factor seems to point towards the direction of Tasmania. On contrary, every door and window that I know of has been seemingly close. Is God telling me to continue with my Masters. Infact, the idea of postphoning my studies this time round wasn't submitted to God in the first place until much later. In other words, I requested for early graduation and then told God my plan in prayer. Nevertheless, I have repented and ask God for this miracle. This miracle of opening up a door for me to stay on in Tasmania for the next 3 years at least.
Would you join me in prayer?
Just a short update of my life in Singapore.
It started all during a buffet lunch with Eric, Serena, Sherry and Bernice. Sherry asked about the Jurong fish market and Serena exclaimed that she has never been there before and have always wanted to visit the place. Since, I have also never been that before, I decided I should organize a trip together. Sherry, Steph and I stayed over at Eric and Serena's place during one faithful friday night and made our way to Jurong fish market at 3am.

As we drove pass the guard house and enter into the premises, I could feel a sense of excitement surging in my heart as I smell the "fishy" aroma fringing in the air.
"Approaching the fish market"

Threadfin salmon.. anyone?

Baskets of Leather jacket
"Man packaging fish"

Graveyard of stingrays!!!




"Blur like sotong, hot like cuttlefish" hahahaha. I swear the first time
I saw an auntie wearing the t-shirt.. I thought she was trying to be funny. :p


Eric-kor examining the crabs..
Want to have a pinch of the pincers?
Sherry's basketful of crayfish..
Upon reaching home, we were wondering how to keep Sherry's crayfish as fresh as possible..
We thought it will be good if we were to cook it and then freeze it.
After steaming it, we decided we should try its taste.. :p
And after tasting... ....................................
We thought it is a waste to keep it since it is so fresh.. .
And you should be able to guess the end of the story.
Oooooo.. look at those succulent cray meat.. Can u resist it?


That's the end of our Jurong Fish Market Tour...
