As I am studying in a completely different environment from China, I am kind of interested in this unfamiliar city.  I want to choose a store randomly on the way between my apartment and campus, then buy something which is bought by a woman and see what I can find out.

I started my process from UNSW Art & Design campus.

Google map: from university to my apartment

Starting point

The google map told me it may take me about 26 minutes to get home. I searched average steps per minute for walking: the result is 100 steps, so the total steps I may walk is about 2600 steps.

An app called Lucky Number was used to help me decide how many steps I should walk before I stopped to see which store was in front of me.

To begin with, I standed at my starting point and recorded how many cars passed by in 1 minute.

The number was 12. I decided to use the 12th number the app gave me.

Set the maximum up to 2600, quantity was 12. Then I had these numbers:

The last number was 888, hence I needed to walk 888 steps and see which store I should visit.

Started!

I used another app to calculate my steps.

The final shop was a grocery store called EzyMart.

Luckily, I waited for about 3 minutes, a woman came and bought a bottle of beverage.

 

Finally, I got the word from the bottle: spring.
