Vivo has the lifeless Singapore Mall feel - I hate it! If you want to go to a mall that has more character, get yourself into one of the old malls like Far East Plaza or Orchard Plaza or Katong Mall or similar, amongst the maid agencies, tailers and massage/beauty places, there tends to be some great shops. For instance, one of the best tool shops in Singapore is in Orchard Plaza.
Another 'great' place to walk around is Toa Payoh, it's the heartlands and has a lot of 'character'.
failing that, there are numerous parks around the country to wonder and plenty of places that are very hobby friendly, if you have a hobby?
Forget seeing decent live sport though, there is not much of that.

It is better to believe than to disbelieve. in doing, you bring everything to the realm of possibility.
Try using a bus instead. You get to see more that way.chris_pilgrim wrote:i do my groceries at Giant @ Vivomart and i love to take my afternoon tea at ToastBox at Harbourfront Centre which overlooks the waterfront

Lol, yes. Take the MRT to any of the following (or many more!) places and just go outside and walk around:chris_pilgrim wrote: i haven't visited the heartlands of sg yet. are those places accessible via the MRTs?
Toa Payoh, Ang Mo Kio, Yishun, Bishan, Bedok, Tampines, Sengkang, Punggol, Jurong East or West, etc...
Be sure to make a note of which one you're visiting, because after the second or third you'll get confused and may forget where you are. They all look mostly the same.
