Singapore 2009

Hey All,

It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to post.  That is partly to due to being so busy, and partly cause of lack of internet connection.  I wanted to update you all that I've moved into my new flat with my new flatmates, Franck and Yaso.  We all love the place :).  I've uploaded a few photos so you can try to get an idea what it's like here.  The first photo shows Franck and Yaso cooking for the first time in our flat.  This occurred during the weekend of Chinese New
Year, which it's actually customary to cook and have dinner with family and friends :).  Yaso cooked Mei Goreng and Franck made one of his family dilicious cakes.  





You'll also see pictures from when I had a small get together with my wonderful friends here in Singapore. 
In this photo is Khai (3rd year undergrad ChemE!) and Romy(German Exchange student working an internship at Dimler).

This is Dasha, also a 1-year PhD student, who's teaching me guitar!  Oh yeah, I'll really bring in the boys now! ;)

Here is a picture of Sama on the far left (PhD student), Daniella (Swedish exchange student), and Franck...my roommate.  I think he made out pretty well in the photo with all these beautiful girls ;).

So these are the people I hand out most frequently in Singapore.  I am throughly enjoying singapore mostly cause of all these lovely people.  
As far as recent events, we just had Chinese New Year (CNY) here, as I said before.  To elaborate a little more about on CNY (which by the way this abbreviation always confuses me cause I think of NYC and then I just feel dyslexic) it started on Sunday January 25 and it apparently lasts for about 10 or so days.  We had off Monday and Tues.  So me being the studious student I am I met up with friends for BBQ's, quality pool time, and dancing....the photos below say it all.  




























Oh yeah, I forgot to mention Khai's not only a ChemE, but a DJ too!!! Yeah.....why did I come to Singapore again...studying??
