A quick update


It's been almost three weeks since i last blogged about my life in HCM city.
Been rather busy at work.
Not much of sightseeing but i promise to do some over this weekend and in the nearby future.
Got a new haircut last Saturday at the Tokyo Hair Salon, MANO MANO.
Check the pictures out below.

Ho Chi Minh City_Week 2


Mundane and repetitive is what i can describe the whole of this week. Even though i should embrace the fact that today is Sunday and i should be happy, get ready to dress up and go shopping. I just don't have the same energy as compared to when i just came to Vietnam. I'm such a lazybone. My hopes of buying a cheap genuine crumpler has been dashed as they have been confirmed to be fake. The ones in Vietnam have the word crumpler on the logo, just below the brand mascot. Well, i would love to have one but since it's fake and many people has one already maybe i should just look somewhere else for some other bags instead. I still prefer a shoulder bag to a sling bag. I have just realized not too long ago that the TV in my apartment has cable connection. I can watch the F1 season and KBS world for my favorite korean shows. I'm so grateful.What more can i ask for? I'm going to pick up my dirty laundry later on before heading out for lunch. I'm so gonna tour around Saigon if i have the time to do so. 

Meet my new ride

Ho Chi Minh City_Week 1


Straight after the ReComTech paper on Monday, i had to catch a flight to Ho Chi Minh city the day after for my OSIP. We flew in SIA and reach the airport at around 12 in the afternoon. No surprises or whatsoever but the weather over in Vietnam is the same as in Singapore. Albeit worse because of the pollution in the air. I tried not to have high expectations on the place we would be staying but initially, i wasn't used to it but after that night itself i grew accustomed to it. The apartment now feels very cozy and warm due to the fact that the host presented us with warm hospitality. We brought back the necessities and voila, the room was now suitable for us to stay in. Frankly speaking, i cried on the first night as i somehow missed my family but i quickly overcame it and i was feeling all right once more. Thinking back now, i felt stupid to have cried over it. I mean the place is nice and you can find good food everywhere you go. My purpose here is to work not play. I'm sure my family would be proud if i achieved good results from my project. That's my driving force and i wished myself all the best and never give up.

Netizens


All these big hoo-haa, tsk tsk.
These netizens can be so scary.
They literally enjoyed the process of ruining a person.
Pity those that have been victimized.

Final leg


My next and final paper is on Monday and i haven't started my revision yet.
I just don't have enough determination to start with.
I need something or someone to push me on.
Come on it's the final leg of the 'race'. After this, i'm off to Vietnam for my OSIP.
After the joyride on Tuesday, i just started thinking on a lot of things.
These past three years, my achievements, friends and all sorts...
Feelings just started to well inside me.
I hope i'll be able to overcome this and present the ever-go-lucky personality of mine again.
Jee Hou, Hwaiting!!
