16/8

It has been a month living in NUS. Well, at first I heard people said the food here was going to be terrible but so far I don't think the same way, the food indeed really satisfy me, the only problem I am facing now is....I am eating too much. Wondering why I can't control myself during dinner time, I am always tempted to eat two sets of dinner.Eventually, ya, I always give in to that temptation. Well, maybe the food here is really nice, or actually I am suffering a minor psychological problem. Perhaps, I choose to eat in order not to get too stress up. Maybe, I feel better eating rather than studying. It is like an excuse, the longer time you spend on meal, the shorter time you spend on studying. So,  maybe I choose to drag my meal time more, by eating more.

Whoever reading this, may think I will get fat very soon. Will see how my body turn out in few months time, but I am quite confident, obesity will not happen on me, especially living in SG, where most of the people has to get used to walking fast and sweating almost every day. I am quite sure Singaporean or people who are now living here stand no chance to get fat. In some point, the lifestyle here is indeed an advantage to maintain a slim body.

So, girls who are struggling with weight problem,  perhaps making an effort to secure a place for you to live in Singapore is not a bad idea. However, you must get prepared to love the crowd here, the crowds are everywhere, struggling to get a tiny little space for themselves to walk and stand. Well, you can't complain much since many brains coming into Singapore so frequently, so let us squeeze and squeeze to get a place for your ownselves, or else you should just wait for the next bus or MRT~~~~~

Singaporean

Engin O week 11 is really a soso camp, which I find it tiring and not fun.
I purposely join this camp because I have to start networking in NUS, just to make sure I won't find it tough to get a few project partners in future. However, I realize how different the topic of Singaporean in a conversation and make it hard for me to socialize with this group of people. Not because of the language they speak but the content itself is quite different. Their jokes are different and I have to act like I really feel funny in order not to show a sign of awkwardness on my face. The stuff they assume to be interesting but I can only get bored. Being part of this community is quite a challenging task. I hope I can find my own way to adapt and get used to this new society and able to get along really well with Singaporeans.

All and all, I still find using Mandarin in a conversation can really make it more friendly and comfortable together with a sense of belonging. I miss talking in a really relax manner with my friends in Malaysia, where I can totally be myself.
