A tall guy in a yellow shirt and khaki pants, carrying a leather sling bag, and wearing glasses, and holding his phone, asked me where Millenia Towers was. I told him this is Centennial Towers and Millenia Towers was the next building over, just walk down the road in that direction. He thanked me and left.

This was brought to you today by the letter L

Place: near East Coast Road / Still Road

(sorf) I was heading to the main road to catch a cab when a petite woman in her 40's, with short hair, glasses and in a dress, approached me and asked if this was Telok Kurau. In Chinese. She also asked where the Buddhist association was. I said that this is Telok Kurau but I don't know where the Buddhist association is. I told her Telok Kurau is quite big and there's a lot of little lanes running off of it, and she should call the association for a proper address. Some time later, I bumped into the woman again still standing there, and she accosted me to show me the address which just said Telok Kurau. So I asked my sister who said there's a temple on Lorong L, and directed her to it.
