Wow, was in town with Joyce yesterday celebrating a special occasion.
We were just walking around Cineleisure and the Heeren and I cannot help but notice how empty it has become.
Has it always been so empty on a weekday night? I used to go to town on weekday nights pretty often when I was in my teens, and it used to be alot more human traffic than this.
I remember the default to be after school is Lido. Sad to say, not many people go there now because the seats and all are quite run down.
Some shops even close early, and hardly any shoppers around. The Thai express on the top floor was very empty.
Probably goes down to a few reasons:
1)recession, everybody wants to save during tough times
2)more malls, with more heartland malls being built, human traffic thins out
3)better tv shows, people are rushing home to watch the channel 8 "ping pong yuan"
4)exam period, students want to study
Come on Singapore, everybody go spend some money to boost economy!
