Hello summer 2009:) After an extremely trying semester, the holidays are finally here! It's wonderful to be back home. The little concrete jungle, the narrow roads, the unforgiving sunshine and the HORRIBLE humidity. Singapore seems to be a place of constant changes. Even if I am away for only 4 months, there are always differences-new construction work, boon lay no longer the last stop on the east-west MRT line, juicy couture finally coming to Singapore haha.

But more importantly, I guess what is changing are my perspectives. I spent the first semester feeling extremely lost. Living on my own, away from people I've grown so comfortable with was not easy. Spent way too much emoing. Second semester was much better. Was way more focused and successful, most of the time, at putting aside messed-up emotions. Felt pretty good about the courses even though results are still less than desirable. There was a much stronger sense of direction.

Now summer. Sighs, why are all the besties not in Singapore? Miss you guys horribly, its amazing how we are now scattered all over the place. People whom I used to stick with 24/7 are miles away and I see them once a year or something. As soon as I get back my passport, I'll be booking my flight to Beijing. Ha, this internship should be very interesting. Going to make the best out of it. The city should be interesting, had a wonderful time there 3 years ago:))
