im back from germany. the last trip on this exchange. went to frankfurt and berlin. and i will rly kinda miss travelling with the awesome bunch of people here. ):
& as the trip comes to an end, i've got to start readjusting back to singapore pace. the fast, hectic and busy lifestyle is back to haunt me. but i guess i've learnt a lot while im here. without my family, without my boyfriend, without my comfort zone.
i've learnt to be much more independent now. and i think i became a bit braver & i realised that, i really really do enjoy a bit of me-time on my own. (: i wash my own clothes, do my own dishes, cook my own lunch, prepare my own food, take care of myself when im sick, clean up after myself, spending within my budget. all these, are precious precious lessons that i wldnt trade for anything else in the world.
the friends i've made here, im pretty sure we will still be pretty tight.
"cmon, we how tight" (: our slogan.
im left with slightly less than a month now and i guess it's gonna be exams here and home sweet home next. got to start working immediately the next day so die die cannot sleep on the plane otherwise it's gonna be jetlag when im working man. and i really hope that i rly did change to become more independent when i return back. i hope i wont be so reliant on my maid for everyday household chores.
anyways, i met up with eileen sherwin candice and co. on queensday! queensday in amsterdam is just some super messy event man. we are allowed to throw rubbish on the floor and everything is under the queen's budget. (y) haha and people are partying on the streets man! pubs are out on the streets, dancefloors, stages. wow. rly an awesome carnival event. :D and i did my very first fake tatoo there! it was quite pretty at first, and aft that, i started to think that it's a bit too lian for my liking. eventually it became a disturbing thingy on my wrist. yugzxzxz.
in berlin i met up with zhenzhen & angela! how i miss them man!! :D:D so happy to see them and the 12 of us (2 groups of us!) met up for dinner and some chillax session at a pub. ahahha, so awesome to see so many singaporeans chilling out! heehee. and the next day i managed to spend the whole day catching up with them. :D haha and i walked back all the way from alexanderplatz to the hostel alone! :D with just a map in hand :)
i rly liked the long walk back though. although i was in a foreign land with absolutely no one with me at all, i wasnt the least scared. i had no idea why too, cause the thought of touring alone hasnt rly occured to me. and when it happened, i realised i kinda like it. but i do miss my friends, having to talk heartily and laughing all the way back. realised im gonna miss them a lot a lot a lot!
and i bought a lot of rittersport manz. it's only like 1.20 sgd here? haha compared to 3sgd. hahah. i can just set up a booth to sell the chocs, and the flavours are super abundant here. they have EVERYTHING :D
ogay tmr is my "ab214" presentation, in the form of a debate. sianz i hate debates. all the best to me and my friends hahaha
won't you keep my secret for me? 9.5.11
