我们都不一样了

Just met up with my sec classmate/jc mate/NS campmate/NTU fren/roomie haha Mr Hejia...He also went for exchange in the past semester and came back with lots of 感触... They were quite similar to mine...A pity Johnny could not join us at the last min as his gf fell sick....二十四孝的男朋友.....3 cheers for him...hee....

Ate at 翡翠 at TM and then went Long John to chat....exchanged photos and really shared our experiences....Looking at the different photos brought back the memories I had just a few weeks back...it seems just so long ago...stirred up feelings in my heart again...

Our conclusion about student exchange:

1. 就像一场梦，梦醒了就回到原点。
2. 一切都变了。不论是人或事物，都不一样了。
3. We have grown through exchange.
4. The world is really big and Spore is really toooooo small....
5. There are sacrifices to be made.
6. Home is still the best.
7. Horizons have been broadened.
8. Meeting diff kind of ppl is enriching.
9. We learnt lots of things that cannot be learnt thru books.
10. The feeling of being back in Spore is LOST....
11. Common memorable moment: Plane touching down Spore Changi Airport.
12. 2nd common memorable moment: Air Stewardess annoucing "Welcome back home all Singaporeans, we have arrived at Singapore Changi International Airport"
13. The feeling with old friends is no longer the same.
14. We are now super zai at planning travelling trips.
15. It is a once in a lifetime experience.
16. HR is very important when living together abroad and travelling together.
17. Give and take is very important.
18. The memories of the trip is life long.
19. Exchange has made us a more all round person.
20. Last but not least, it has been a right choice to go for exchange and will encourage our other frenz to go.......

Feels good to be able to relate with some one who has also been absent from Singapore for 6 mths...and of course catch up with old frenz....Seen some nice photos of Canada too....will go there someday...muz meet up again b4 I fly off ah..Hejia and Johnny.

Just closed my account for my US trip. Total Expenditure including medicals, paper work, food, transport, travel, souvenirs, accidents hee......Singapore Dollars 12-13k.........

Considering summer and spring trip already took up 4k, actually living expenses for the whole sem was abt 8k (inclusive of round trip air tix on SIA), so it was within budget.... just that maybe I bought too much souvenirs...oops...haha my bad habit: shopping for t-shirts and shot glasses at every city's Hard Rock Cafe. Hee.....

Ok time to practise my song signing.....haven practised since Tuesday.....Hope dun do too badly in tonight's practice at SaDeaf.....Hopefully my "Dreams" will come true.....haha
