It takes around 3 months for a term to finish in my school which is 2 months earlier compared to my friends' semesters. It takes 3 years to get your diploma depending on the course you are taking and provided that you passed all your classes (specifically your majors and pre-requisites). In just 3 weeks, I would be finish with all my classes, done with thesis, and start preparing for the G word that all college seniors are both looking forward to and getting sad or emotional at the same time. The G word my friends is what we would call as Graduation.

It's funny how all of my friends who go to other schools would say that they cannot wait for their semester to finish which is a stark contrast to my sentiment: I don't want for school to end yet! They would complain about how busy their schedules are and how tiring it is yet I on the other hand is getting scared and jittery with the boredom that awaits for me a.k.a life right after graduation. Honestly I still don't have any plans laid out except for the fact that I don't see myself getting a job right away until the end of the year. I actually already asked permission from my parent if they are fine with that and hey they don't happen to mind about it at all.

Three years sure went by quickly and I still can't believe that college will be almost over in just three weeks (the final say that it is totally over is during graduation). Instead of counting the remaining days left, I'll try to keep in mind with what Mj told me back in the summer before school: Don't count the days, instead let the days count.

THESIS DUTIES

Yes I am aware that I haven't been updating this blog for almost 3 weeks already. Shame on me but there were a lot of happenings over the past 3 weeks which I will be blogging about soon by making a recap entry. Been quite busy with Thesis since our concert event is set to happen next month and although I do have idle time since I only have 2 classes for this term, I'm mostly spending that time tweeting, sleeping, Philo readings, or talking with Ea, the fresh graduate on the phone til 3 in the morning.

One of the things that happened over the past 3 weeks is that me and my family went on a short vacation to Singapore. It was my second time going there but the last time I was there was already about 6 years ago so in a way it felt like it was my first time again. This time we focused mainly on going around the City area especially with Little India and Chinatown because during our first time we visited all the different parks such as Sentosa down to Jurong Bird Park.

Singapore is indeed a small country and you can have the full tour even with just 3 whole days. You will be doing a lot of walking (which I guess the reason why almost every girl is so skinny!) and has a very fast-paced kind of lifestyle especially when you are in the City. I have to admit that it is an expensive country (our Mcdonalds bills amounted to almost $20 for two burger meals which is equivalent to 600 pesos) but if you do some research then you will find some really cheap thrills like with the Hawker stations selling great tasting and authentic asian cuisines for $5 (150 pesos) and below or the street market like Bugis where I spent most of my time. You should also take advantage to go there when it is sale season since you will find some really great deals like this shop I entered where they were selling various kinds of shoes for $20 and below.

Because of its proximity (just a 3 hours plane ride), Singapore is a great place for a family vacation with their different theme parks however I think it is really more for the young and energetic individuals. Well I guess this would be one of the places that me and my friends will be looking at when already have the money to burn.

Most of our lives are a series of images, they pass us by like towns on a highway. But sometimes a moment stuns us as it happens and we know that this instant is more than a fleeting image. We know that this moment, every part of it, will live on forever.
