today marks the last day of my 3.5 week stay in singapore... will be off to tokyo in less than 24 hours... though i do not have a very comprehensive itinerary for us, i have a few places in mind and hopefully everything will go smoothly and i'll enjoy my stay there =) look forward to shopping in tokyo actually, wanna buy a watch.... swatch watch straps are so unreasonably expensive... wanted to change my elastic watch strap.. but to my horror i realized it cost $36... its like half the price of the watch... =(
wished my winter break was longer; but i guess i slacked enough for the past few weeks, but meeting up with old frens was definitely a big bonus... nothing beats the company of old frens, them asking after you.... catching up with one another... i feel somewhat strange though that despite having been away from home for one whole year, it was pretty true that i had nothing to do in Singapore after like 3 weeks.... I am not sure why this is the case too... so I think i will try to travel more, say one week of travellign next time if i come back during winter. I quite look forward to the new semester ahead though, excited about the new classes i will be taking; this is always the case whenever a new sem starts! =) and it dies down midway into the semester when all the dreaded midterms start.... and i will be moaning away how i cannot manage them....
shall meet up with a few frens for the last time later, get more packing down, the last of my errands run and then it will be takeoff!
