The day before yesterday I safely arrived in Singapore. I had a good journey from Zwolle to Singapore. The train ride was fine and the flight went well. The food on the aeroplane was the worst I ever had and I was very very hungry but it really was disgusting. I ma really really busy with tomorrow I will visit the GAMES CONVENTION ASIA CONFERENCE 2008. I am looking forward to this and next week I will start working at Dalrus. So I will be really busy with everything, including the search for housing. I also was working on a redesign of my website but I wasn’t happy with the result so I am starting over from scratch. Don’t expect any news within the next two weeks.

Kind regards,

I am getting ready for Singapore. I am working very hard to earn as much money as possible. Therefore I only work+eat+sleep and next to that I am trying to finish everything I still have to do. I still have to write two reports, I still have to find an Internship, I still have Make more money and I still have to finish this big website project. And I am leaving short under two months already. I don’t know how this is all going to happen but I am sure it will work out. When I arrive in Singapore I plan to stay in the Sleepy Sam’s Hostel since I stayed there before and it was by far the best hostel I’ve been to. I will be getting a place to stay as soon as possible.

only one more day here in the smallest country of southeast asia. Tomorrow I fly back to the European part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

The last few days I have been busy with a lot of nothing and more. I am currently working on my project and still in the process of learning Panda3D. Focusing on finishing everything for school and starting on my bachelor thesis. I went to see the National University of Singapore (NUS) and a library. The facilities for studying here in Singapore are amazing. The people here are really into learning and you see them reading and studying everywhere.

Last week I went to Kuala Lumpur and things where very different there. It most less developed obviously than Singapore but more developed than Indonesia. I went up the Petronas Twin Towers which was pretty amazing, high and best of all free. The only downside was you had to go and get tickets before eight am to go up there.

I also went to Genting Highlands which was just plain weird. Imaging thousands of chinese people gambling in things that look like factory halls. The cable car ride up there came with awesome views but terrifying heights…

I will miss the tempature… Starbucks… structure… food… basically a lot of things but most of it all the colour with variation on the streets and the clear blue sky which just makes you happy…

Four days ago, after six months of study in Indonesia, I arrived in Singapore. My first impression is amazing! I am a tourist again… After a long time in Bali I was bored and in Singapore I recaptured the urge to go out and discover.

The first day I went to a big and expensive shopping complex on Orchard road. I did some window shopping and I went to a movie in a way to cold theater for only shorts+shirt and flipflops.

The next day I did almost the same except I had to sleep late first. I went to some other shopping malls and did some walking around. At night I went on a safari where Jurassic Park the movie which I saw when I was 14 came totally back to me. It was awesome…

After the Zoo we set out for the surething Singapore todo, a singapore sling in the Long bar of the Raffles Hotel.

Singapore is great for walking around with amazement. The feeling was a bit when I was in New York. So after another day of walking around and using the MRT the excellent tube system. I came back to my hostel and had dinner and went to bed early because all that walking is exausting.

In a few hours I will travel by train to Kuala Lumpur(KL). I am really looking forward to KL although I am a bit worried that I won’t like because Singapore is so great.
