I am writing to you from my cousin's place in Bukit Batok in the west of Singapore. A sincere thank you to those who prayed for my safe passage, it was a smooth ride all the way. I flew in the Airbus A380 for the first time and it was quite enjoyable. There were only a few passengers in the plane so I had lots of room to spread myself out. My only complaint was that I chose a seat near the wing, which is quite bulky, so I couldn't catch a good glimpse of the night lights of Singapore during the landing, which for me is one of the pleasures of arriving in Singapore at night.
Acclimatizing to the humidity has been easier this time round, due mainly to the fact that Melbourne is experiencing similar weather to Singapore at the moment (although not as humid). I am only going to be here for two days, because on Friday I will be heading into Malaysia with my cousins for what should be an exciting weekend of New Year festivities.
Just a few hours ago I went to a nearby mall to purchase a microSD memory card for my Samsung phone and have been fiddling around learning how to use it, which will come in handy for storing the massive amounts of photos I will be taking. Tonight I will be catching up for dinner with Jenny, an old friend who attended my church when she was living in Melbourne, and is now working for a media company in Singapore. Until then, I don't really have much to do, so after lunch I'm going to take a ride on the world-famous MRT to Orchard Road to see just how big Singapore's Borders Bookshop is. Should be fun!
OK, that's it for now. I will provide updates soon.
Cheers and God bless
Jeremy
