free day!!
2) rows and rows and rows of bicycles! there's gotta be a thousands of them!
at least NUS has a huge patch of secondary forests too..what's missing are the cute little houses. maybe those along the road to pgp could count?
4) huge frozen puddle in a snowcovered field.
when we first arrived, the puddle was still in its liquid form. somewhere like last friday i think, it looked frozen in a nice green field. on monday, it was still visible. yesterday, it was already snowed in. hah. perfect weather.
5) snow covered macdonalds just outside of school! beats the macdonalds at engin hands down aesthetic wise, but loses completely price wise. it's 10sgd for a nuggets meal over here and that's the cheapest meal i think. but there's some studen offer where you could get 1 free item if you buy a meal. i still like my 4.50sgd nuggets meal better.
6) more nature! beautifully red berries on the way out of school!
if my dad was here, i am 101% sure he would pluck a berry and attempt to eat it. it is that tempting! it's nice to have some colour in the otherwise somewhat greyish winter landscape.
before i forget, here's my italian friend from maths class, Luca!
he whips out his english-italian dictionary during maths class to figure out the notes. he's really hardworking and also a party animal who parties almost everynight i think. his eyes lights up at the sight of girls and he'll tell you that he was just looking at their very nice boots. haha. and he choked on a fisherman's friend during maths class and saw death approaching. yes. that's my italian friend who makes maths class so much more fun!finally, no post would be complete without some food!
1) kangacow chocolate pudding that was quite yummy. i don't get why kangaroo + cow but who cares when it's yummy!2) the custard filled, sugar coated doughnuts that i'm absolutely addicted to. i've eaten at least 5 of them in the past week! i love my doughnuts! but why do they not have taka doughnut here!
3) junk food! huge packet of chips, huge bag of nachos, huge box of chocolate chip cookes, chocolate bars and more chocolate bars! wheey!
4) my first semlor! it's a traditional swedish food which is basically a bun with cream in it. it's not too bad but not something i'd crave for when i go home. i'll more likely crave for the cheap chocolates and doughnuts!
5) pyttipanna! another swedish food which is really tasty and easy to prepare. it's made of cubes of potato and ham and onions. you buy it frozen and fry it. it's that easy! it's really good.
6) our first bowl of maggie mee since we got here! it's a swedish brand and costs about 40 cents per packet and actually doesn't taste too bad. better than maggie at least. they do have nissin here but it's really expensive, like 1 dollar a packet.
7) finally, our wonderful pasta creation from last night. fresh button mushrooms fried with garlic and hotdogs in a creamy cheesy sauce on spaghetti and boiled carrots. so yummy that there was no leftovers even though i overestimated the amount of spaghetti!
alrights! that's all for now. time for some lunch, webtv and maths homework!
luv, Junli!
