Oh yeah, almost forgot about my Singapore post. Actually I don’t really have too much to say. But anyway, I might as well say it, just in case there’s no other time…

Singapore has a special place in my heart.
It is where I learned English as a first language.
It is where I grew up and matured, in many ways.
It is where I learned to become independent.
It is where I almost lost my mind, and regained it again.
It is where I got to know more than 75% of my friends, and some of them from other countries other than Singapore (even Indonesians whom I didn’t know in Indonesia).
It is where I learned about cultures of another country.
It is where I spent four years (and probably the next six years or so) of my education years.
It is where I don’t mind becoming a PR or even a citizen (and maybe even spend my old years). Hey! Singapore is so much safer than Indonesia in general and so much bigger and better-equipped than my place!
It is where I learned a great deal of first-hand experience on life matters.
It is where I got lots of my gadgets. :P
Of course, this being said, it doesn’t mean that I’m going to forget about my real home. Yes, although in the end I might not spend the rest of my life in Singapore, I will never forget Singapore. Thank you to all the government bodies and the friends I’ve made in Singapore for making my stay so much more enjoyable. I can’t imagine surviving without you people! You guys rock!

the log of my trip

Tuesday, December 16th, 2003

the log of my trip with my brother is up: The Humming Bird’s Singapore Guide.

and here’s my brother’s account on the trip: Excursion Report - Operation: Singapore.

here’s a background story on the log:
Between 3 - 7 December 2003, I played Singapore tour guide for my brother. Recorded here is the log of my trip. I decided to create a separate page for this as I realised that the log of my trip became too long to be included in the main diary. Enjoy!

still to come: prom night report and prom night photos. :)
