Some Updates

On the last day of my holidays, I did a very exciting Singaporean thing. Go and check out T3. Hahaha. The first thing we did when we parked the car was to ask, why are there so many cars here? Anyway, T3 only services a few airlines for now. Then we went inside and realized. Half of Singapore had decided to pay a visit too! Like us! Haha.

Anyway, there were loads of families just milling around and one million children running all over the place trying to kill themselves by hanging over banisters and jumping down stairs. Yikes. Hate kids. And loads of malay families with mother,father, brother, sister, uncle aunty, 3rd cousin, 4th nephew, godma, grandparents and god grandparents sitting all together at the viewing mall, short of a tent and bbq pit and some of that East Coast sea breeze.

The Singaporean crowds aside, T3 looked like something straight out of an artist's impression drawing.

See what I mean?


Super big, sparse, bright, fluorescent.




Loads of fake plants hanging from everywhere fused with futuristic structures


Departure.


Really looks like a drawing. Can't stand it.


See, loads of space! I don't understand how space constrained Singapore finds the space for This!


This is Brewerkz with its large beer canisters. So happening one, they have brewerkz in the pre-departure hall.


And Gelare! If I ever fly from T3 I will check in 2 hours earlier to shop and eat at all the restaurants. Haha. Ben Liew says must go on Tuesday then can get waffles at half price.. sheesh.


Futuristic and purposeless water feature in the centre. But it makes the whole place look nice and er.. flow-ey.


I think this is the ultimate artist's impression picture. Haha. It does not look like it really exists!


This is what makes up the ceiling of T3. Apparently the shafts or whatever you call them are supposed to channel solar energy or something.


And I told you about all the families right. These people aren't waiting for arrivals. They're local tourists. Like us!


Anyway school has started and is already starting to deplete my energy. Thank God I don't have to go to school on Fridays. School is just quite tiring. I mentioned to someone the other day that i've never been in a school environment where I don't feel comfortable being myself. In secondary school everyone was just well, typically girls' schoolish and mad and crazy and what not. In JC, school was too big to bother to hang out with anyone other than people you were comfortable with. So val and I just spent our days together and I think my class was made up of a rare bunch of very unpretentious people. So it was great. But now, everyone comes with their own baggage cos we are older. And everyone has been through a shitload of stuff before coming into uni and meeting each other. So we all start off trying to get to know and understand each other with all these layers and layers to us. As a result, it becomes so hard to be yourself around people because it's just so hard to really know the core of the person. Everyone has developed their own minds, judgments, critiques, ways of thinking and it's just that much easier to be misunderstood. Plus, you feel like you only know people in one context - law school. Cos you've never seen them with anyone else or anywhere else and everyone's knowledge of everyone is pretty much disjointed. Not like a whole picture. Only few of them you have known since JC or even secondary school and even then, they must have change quite a lot since then.

So stiff and claustrophobic school is. I don't know if anyone feels the same way. But school work wise, I have a feeling this sem is going to be horrid. I feel so inundated with work even though it's only the first week. Probably cos I know very little of what is actually going on. Well, time to kick in my diligent boots and do something about it! Haha.

Bye!
