Well hello, Singapore. Been back for a couple of days already and honestly it's been a bit of a whirlwind. On one hand it's so lovely to see my friends and family again, and to taste some of the food I haven't had for the last nine months. It's also nice to take the MRT again, the transport system here beats the London tube any day. So nice and clean and air-conditioned, and the journey is comparatively faster, though that can prolly be explained by the fact that London is huge and S'pore is weeny. Bu I thik getting a seat on the tube is easier than on the MRT, people are more chill on the tube while everyone chiongs for a seat on the MRT which can get a bit annoying because you see perfectly able bodied young men running to grab a seat ahead of some old auntie. After a while I just prefer to stand, especially for short journeys to town or something. On the other hand, I have discovered that I absolutely detest S'pore weather. Have taken to showering twice a day and washing my face way more often.
Phone is a bit cranky of late, think it's cuz of Singtel because my iPhone was perfectly fine in the UK. Trying to get it fixed but it's really annoying when I can't send texts or when people message me but I don't get the message. Like wtf argh. Also have barely talked to the bf since we touched down, apart from sporadic messages and the very very occasional skype (try like, two skype conversations. Not even calls/video calls, but just typing). I don't think we're very good at this technology relationship thing cuz we're practically been living together and when we use our phones to contact each other, it is more of like a cursory 'Hi where are you' call/text which doesn't last very long so I guess we're not too used to doing this. All the same, it's weird and I'm not too psyched but I guess we have to figure it out.
In the meantime, having a great time with my old friends. Appreciate them so much more nowadays, because I have known life without them in the UK and really, it gets kind of lonely sometimes without your bestest friends there for you. I love you guys (:
