I MISS SINGAPORE!

IE has finally paid me, and I transferred some money to my dad with my nifty dbs thingy. And at the webpage I saw advertisements for singaporean food, gifts and spa pampering (SG$38 anyone?) and all I can say is, I really miss Singapore. That prompted a google search for singapore - i read all recent news about my country, and believe it or not I read through the entire Wikitravel article on singapore, which incidently is very good. I have watched most of the videos on straits times online, including the one on chinese new year.

Now I miss it more than ever. Strange, given that I read the straits times every day without fail, and in the past week have been talking to my parents almost every day.

I've been out of Singapore since September, so it's been about 6 months now. That's not too long. But somehow I am dreaming of the heat, not even minding the humidity, just to be able to walk out in flip flips, sans jacket. I am dreaming of good quality , cheap hawker food, and the feeling of security late at night. I miss the malls which open till late, which for all my familiarity feel like an entirely different world now. There is something inexplicable about the wave of comfort I feel when I think of Singapore, but when I search hard for memories, I can only conjure up precious little. Not detailed enough for me to close my eyes and imagine, if just for a while, how living in Singapore felt like.

I wonder if I will ever feel the same about England.
