HELLO SINGAPORE!

I love airports, but I hate flying. So I was happy to finally be done with the 20 hour flight complete with a mad sprint across the airport in Japan to make it to the connecting flight. When I got to Singapore, I found out due to hotel complications that I was homeless for the night! I started to freak out. Thankfully, wearing Cal attire does pay off, and several other UC students studying abroad in Singapore as well found me in the airport. We all looked pretty bad from the long flight, something remembling the following picture...

HAHAHA I love this picture.

Anyways, we headed off to what would be the first of many hostels!



Did mention I couldn't breath initially? I felt like I was breathing in water due to the high humidity. Luckily, this feeling went away fast.



So this was my first shot of southeast asia in the morning, waiting at the bus stop. Do you see any differences in the architecture from America?

I had no idea what to expect! A bit of scared mixed with excited, and happy that another adventure was about to begin, I paid 80 cents and boarded the bus to the National University of Singapore.
