Δ I'm finally back in Singapore!

10 August 2016, 22:05

It was National Day yesterday so let the patriotic me just dwell in the joy and cheer of being back in Singapore for another moment. It's meepok, it's bakutteh, it's wonton mee, it's normal food and proper queues and people who speak English Singlish!!!~~ Ok so yupps, happy 51st, Singapore, I guess you're pretty awesome after all haha (all the things you realise after three months in China).

That brings me back to my original topic, that I can't believe that ALP is over already! Last I remembered, I was still reeling from orientation stress and all ready to embark on the trip but now I'm here back in Singapore, tan and fat from all the food in China. I was just compiling my travel photos this morning (and I'm almost done yay!) and it's amazing how much I've travelled within a span of three months. I've probably travelled more than what most of my friends have because I simply tag onto anyone who's ready to travel (or ahem, I just go ahead with my own little plans when I'm far too lazy to start the jio-ing process). Here's a bit of highlights to keep you updated (and jealous hah):
