Settling in!

Location: My fluffy bed, 1127 hrs
Quite a rough start today I must say. No breakfast for us, meaning I starved from 0000 hrs until our brunch at 1130 hrs. Food here is insanely cheap though. Restaurant food for an equivalent of SGD8. That's almost the same amount of money you spend on Macdonalds if you forgot to ask for student meal.

The student guides here are really nice and hospitable. We sort of made them walked up and down the same street nearly four times. Back in Singapore, almost anyone would be annoyed and start losing their patience. Yet, our student guides look more confused rather than annoyed. An honest opinion: the weather is the answer for the vast difference in response. If it's cool and breezy, the people here are able to remain chill at all times. If the sun's bright and it's humid, people tend to lose their patience a whole lot easier.
Speaking of the cold weather, I am officially the heat-pack-warmer here. Yes, my duty is to warm heat packs until they are, well, warm and pass them to the owners.

Well then, that's it for today and it's time to sleep in my fluffy bed!
