📷 #WednesdayWalk Long walk home after interview | 面试后,走回家😎 (by @ace108)
I was at Bendemeer Road for a job interview recently. It was quite a crappy one. I don't think anything will progress. They don't feel like the kind of people I should work with anyway. As I left, I took these 2 photos from opposite direction.

🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.

Then I took this photo from outside. No, that was not the company I went for the job interview. I decided to take a long walk home from there.

First, I crossed the road and went into this place which has many shops.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
Half way to the end of the rows of shops and I saw a coffeeshop on the right.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
I thought it was easier to get across the road going underground into the MRT train station.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
Inside the station, there is a shop called "Skinny Cakes"
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
Out of the station on the other side of the road, I checked out the map. I going to walk along Sungei Whampoa and go towards Toa Payoh Central.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
Passing by KFC, I see I could win a Mercedes if I eat their Cereal Chicken meal. Maybe next time.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
I stopped at a shop for a bean curd dessert briefly.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
I took a photo of the shop as I left.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
There was some construction on the left side of the river. I went to the right side.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJNvGNMbH
One pigeon was standing in my way. :-)
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
These residential blocks are new. I haven't seem them before.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
Looks like the opposite side has sheltered walkway which I guess is what the construction I saw earlier was about.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
I continued to walk.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
On the right, there is a little community garden here.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
End of the walkway here and I have to be going up this pedestrian overhead bridge on the right to go across an expressway.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
A quick walk across the bridge.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
Down below, I tried to go back to the river trail.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
Here we go again and there was a sign telling me Toa Payoh Town Park is 1.5km away. Don't sound too far.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
Very quickly, I was coming to the end of the walkway again.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
I be a good boy and go to a proper pedestrian crossing to cross the road.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/BJgYGNMWr
I continued to walk on the left side of the river.

Close to the end of the walkway, there is a mosque on the opposite side of the river.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
I was still using the pedestrian crossing to cross the road.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
Then back to the walking trail again.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
Still look like a long way to walk.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
At least the clouds were providing some cover.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
On the left, is this place called Wheeler's Yard which I had passed by before. I think is more of a cafe that targets bikers but I don't know why it was closed then.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
The journey continued.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
The clouds stopped working. So, I'm getting more vitamin D.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
I looked down into the river and saw a rather big fish.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
Across the river, this residential block is having some repainting done by some guys on a gondola.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
I looked down into the river and saw this part seemed to have more fish.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
Not just fish too. One creature that looks like tortoise or terrapin.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/HJLczNGWr
I have to continue my race against the tortoise.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Here is the last stretch of the trail by the river.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Here was where I crossed the road.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Passing by a small exercise area.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
I was heading to this pedestrian overhead bridge.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
In between when I was crossing the river, I took this photo.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Up the bridge to cross another expressway.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
The Toa Payoh Swimming Complex can be seen at the end of the bridge.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
On the left, is the Toa Payoh Town Park. You can see some of the trees are very old.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Down from the bridge, here is the evidence I arrived at the park.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Passed through the park and see another pedestrian overhead bridge I need to go to.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
This photo was taken when I was almost on top of the bridge.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
Some of you may have seen photo of the yellow building before.
IMAGE LINK|图片链接: https://supload.com/B1p2zVzZS
It was a long walk. I decided I should go to a food court with air-conditioned and have a coffee break.

我最近在Bendemeer Road接受了面试。感觉不好。 我认为不会又任何进展。感觉他们不像我应该一起工作的那种人。 当我离开时,我从相反的方向拍摄了这两张照片。

Want to have your post on the map too?
That looks like a real cool walk it's to catch with the city areas to see what's going on and i love all them walkways and bridge crossing is what you need around a busy city :)
The bridges are lots of stairs unfortunately but it's good workout.
