Long story

Well this post is a long story, so if you don't have 20 mins, read it a next time...
(its an email reply to Chrong, but I guess it qualifies for a blog post, so its here... heehee)

Everything's fine over here. Just settled in hostel yesterday. The weather is cold here (although nowhere compared to yours), 5-18 deg, now doing 3 layers, but I don't have any proper overcoats. I like the weather alot, and the food too. Everything is kind of expensive, I really need to watch myself here, especially eating out and buying drinks. Transportation is well developed but expensive again. 200-400 yen for train rides, which goes to $2.60 to $5.20 in SGD.

There's alot of ang-mohs here, and I guess you know it, they are pretty hyper and party-like. I heard them tell about drinking-binges, think I might have to distance myself abit or end up spending alot of money. There's two Singaporeans in our dorm, so I'm probably going to stick to them, one is studying in US though. I'm going to visit my school later, one Singaporean has been here before. Besides that, I probably need to do groceries and necessities, like detergent liquid and all that stuff.

At night, it gets much mundane, I could go out walking in the cold wind, but nah. Probably a bicycle would be good, I'm already planning to get one. There's a TV in the lounge, but the ang-mohs are doing wii. Yes, thats the one where you swing the controller to play tennis and bowling. I did both last night, hahahaha! Besides that, there are TWO PS2 sets here. I think there's a rich, gadget-freak ang-moh. Damn lots of distractions, I should have brought my PS2 games and memory cards here.

Hmm... what else to do? I guess admin forms like alien registration, bank/postal account, handphone...

In actual fact it probably one takes 2 mins for an average human that has certain proficiency in english.
