I’m back in Singapore! Where the humidity is scorching, the tap water tastes muddy and the rain falls when you don’t want it to. How lovely
My europe experience is over, other than the reviews, submission of results, and the memories
So I’m back, time to resume normal life =) Many things have [...]

with the semester coming to an end, the tradition of doing a housecleaning has prompted the housing authorities to send a guy down to check on the state of our house today. why they organize it in the midst of exams is unclear. yesterday thus became a clean scrub mop shine polish day. It doesn’t [...]
Quick Update

Well Internet has been down for a number of days, and with exams coming up and me still running around it’s been hard to find time to write an entry. My first paper is on Wednesday, an oral exam which I don’t really know what to expect. It could be to prove a theory, solve [...]
Cleaning Out My Keyboard

I just took an hour of my time to delicately pick out piece by piece of my keyboard, clean the muck from under the keys, and place them back. (The desire to do anything but study leads you to do strange things…)

Home-made Spaghetti Carbonara, Chawanmushi (courtesy of A) and a rather salty instant pumpkin soup. Together with Bossa Nova, [...]

The Zürich holiday that marks the end of the Winter. A Parade of the Guilds passes through most of the larger streets in Zürich, culminating in the burning of the effigy Böögg which symbolises winter. If it takes a long time, the winter is strong and the summer will be a bad one.
The weather was [...]

::Internet has been down at my place::
I went to the Europa Park with the ESN today. I would not have heard of the place, except that SX gave me a writeup of it just before I left for Europe. It’s supposed to be one of the most popular amusement parks in Europe (after Disneyland probably). [...]
