Why this pic? Read on….you’ll see

This begins a new chapter of my life! (look out for About Me Chapter 2, coming soon)

This is actually a short update for everyone who knows me, and don’t know me too haha. I am now in singapore and will begin working here on tuesday. I will find out more about what I’m doing and brief you all later. I know. I know, I am here and I do know what I will be doing, but I would like to actually give a hands on description ok? In short it has to do with music hahhaha.

I arrived here yesterday driving my parents car with them comfortably snoozing all the way. 5 hours of driving is a killer. Thank God I had the GPS to accompany me waking me up with every ’speed camera in 300 meters’. I set my GPS to woodlands but my mom actually wanted us to go through the second link. There was quite a confusion because when we entered second link, the GPS brought us 40 km backwards from where we came.

There was a lot of grumbling from the three of us then. But all turned out well as we finally crossed the border without any problems even as my things practically filled the whole car!

When I got here I was rather nervous. Everything looked similar but different. I was heading to church and was constantly analyzing everything. To cut the story short, I was chasing a speeding taxi to reach my dwelling place here which would be temporary. My father was like ‘Wei here got a lot of speed trap Wei’. I was like ‘that fella go so fast how la, at least we got GPS to see speed trap’. Still he was driving very fast.

We got to the flat area and here is pics of the place:

The first place you see upon entering, the dining hall

This is the kitchen….very nice….maybe I should learn how to cook well to save money….

The most important place to most people….not me….but I assure you it is really clean and nice

The hall spacious but not used ahahahaha

This is my room but I’m just half packed…..so tired

The bottom line is I like this place besides the fact that the air-con doesn’t function, I think I have more than enough space to mark my territory hahaha.

I then drove to a pastor’s house where my parents will lodge in for the night. We then packed ourselves like sardines in the car as he dropped me off at the nearest MRT station. There I felt like a sardine squirming around. Can you believe it? I got stuck in a human jam! At times like this, I just wish I would have the guts to push my way through. I was sweating like a pig and all I just did was walk walk walk to meet up with a friend who would help me obtain an internet connection.

Instead I ended up shopping with them. For shopperholics, it is time for the grand sale here and therefore things are going up for bargain prices here. I had to really fight off all my urges to spend because I cannot afford to do so just yet….just yet…..hahahaha my only comfort….just yet.

In the end we couldn’t get the internet as they needed some document that my friend didn’t have. Sigh……Big Sigh!!! So I had to brave the sardine packed MRT to get back where I stay again. I got lost a little but got back safe and sound and began unpacking. When I switched on the computer. Surprise! There was someone who left their router unprotected! So the computer auto connected and soon I was bombarded with tonnes of MSN messages. So I spent the night trying to multitask. Not too long later….I collapsed on my new bed.

One more shoutout is to my parents! You are the best in the world. I would never want any others. You know what? All my life I have never, I want to emphasize NEVER ever thought that I would want someone else to be my parents or regretted the fact that I am your son. I love you all so much and thank You for the sacrifice you all are making for me. If anyone has the most to lose it is you all and yet you still give it all without complaining. Thank you. You all are the people I miss the most. I love you both more than words can describe!
