In the afternoon, I went to Borders at Orchard Road to buy Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
I took the MRT from Clementi to Outram Park. I wanted to try out the North East Line, or NEL for short, which opened yesterday. I walked to the NEL platform at the interchange and explored the station a bit. Then I took the train from Outram Park to Dhoby Gauht. It was a much faster train ride than if you travelled from Outram Park to Dhoby Gauht via Raffles Place and City Hall. Then, I switched back to the train on the North-South line, and I took it to Orchard.
At Borders, there was a long queue, and most of the people in the queue had Harry Potter merchandise in their hands. I quickly grabbed one of the Order of the Phoenix books (there were three types of book covers; I didn't know if there were any difference) and joined the queue. At a discounted price it cost $32.95, but with my $20 Borders voucher I got from Speech Day, I only had to pay $12.95. I went home on the same route, using NEL.
