I'M BACK!Yes!!! Back in Singapore and it feels damn shiok.. Just don't really enjoy the weather. But still, home is home! And I'm loving it!
Vietnam was a blast, an experience so enriching and life-changing that I'll never forget the 2 weeks I spent there. Everything, from building the classroom, cooking for the villagers singaporean food, playing with the children, visiting orphanages, spending time with my team, crapping with roomie and even the children calling me "bobo" (apparently it's easier calling me bobo..and it's all alwin's fault..btw, he's 'win win').
All these memories, it just feels so surreal being back in Singapore where everyone is just so busy to even care about our own family..but seeing the tall buildings was a shocker. Seriously, as i descend and gaze upon the island, I had expected to see quilt-like patches of land. Right, what was I thinking.. anyway, pictures up soon..Blur me forgot to bring extra memo card! So I had to scrimp and force myself not to snap at everything..going to 'kop' from other people's pics anyway..so yup..soon!
I miss the girls so much..on the 3rd day I was already homesick, so you can just imagine the next few days. Luckily, I recovered due to the massive amount of work that needs to be done everyday, so I go to bed too tired to think about anything else..Half of the team fell sick btw...but still, we did a good job and i'm sure everyone enjoyed themselves.
Bargained like 'siao' and I was so happy when I managed to cut more than 50% off! And spent every single cent...happy happy~
Okay, so Qin, jo, and mommy came to fetch me..daddy was in reservis and this was his message,"welcome home my dearest baby! See you tonight as I have to SERVE AND PROTECT OUR NATION FOR NOW. Aren't you proud of your GREAT Dad? Muacks!" I was laughing so hard when I read it..how lame can he get..so yup..they had dinner at my house and then went out with my sis to get two tubs of ben and jerry's..chocolate cookies dough and strawberry cheesecake! YUM! Jess came over today and together, we finshed the strawberry cheesecake. HA! had fun gorging ourselves today..and went for a haircut, which I'm so not used to..never had bangs since eons ago..
So anyway, I've this sudden craving for beach vball..but I realise I have no 'kakis'! So freaking sad...Don't care, I'm going to find myself a vball gang!
1 more month of hols..homework..here I (don't) come!
