Singapore (Part 1)

being an exchange student is always far beyond my imagination. um, i can imagine i will be a scientist, be a rich man, be a political leader, be an spaceman, but just not exchange student. i always believe that only those are excellent, representative students have a chance. i am just a normal student, um... i  must confess i am a bit naughty and a law-breaker, totally non-discipline, and lazy by my clever. anyway, i am not an excellent student.

But i try to apple the exchange program during my 1st year in university, encourage by my friend, he said, "no one can guarantee the success, but i can guarantee the fail if you don't even try. and it is free, by the way." so, i try, and i success. go to National University of Singapore (NUS) for half year! 

the academic year of Singapore is on Aug, rather then Sept in HK, so, the summer holiday is shorten. well, thanks to credit transfer, basically, all the credit can be transfer for just passing courses. so, tests, pass it is ok,   mid-terms, pass is ok, final, pass is ok! not much effort is needed. thus, i go there to play! 

so, i went to there 1 weeks before the academic year start. to get know Singapore earlier.

This is my first time to go to a english speaking country. at that time, i cannot even write anything in english! misspelling (thanks to google to correct me, now aday), terrible pronunciation, etc.. but luckily, Singapore people can understand cantonese. since that watch HK tv program! wow.... that i knew after i had come there.

night of Singapore
That time is summer, 2004, a unforgettable fall and winter.
