for the last day in Singapore I’ve been up over 36 hours with 2 hours of sleep. I woke up at 10am so I could vacate the bed and check out. I get to keep my luggage in a luggage storage since I am not flying out of Singapore until 12:35am. Went downstairs for breakfast and met up with England Chris while I was watching Freaky Friday on the tv in the common room.

Went for lunch with him at the Hard Rock Cafe. He said it was 20 mintues walk, it actually took 1 hour. the whole time, I was using the transit to get to the places I wanted to go but I realized that if I wanted to, I could have walked everywhere cuz Sing is so small.

I was so tired I couldn’t tell if he was joshing/teasing me or serious when he asked me questions and stuff. I could not hold a decent conversation and laughed at every single little thing that was pointed out to me. I had to look at his face to see if he was smriking at me to tell if he was serious!

After lunch we went to see a movie, Bewitched. it was good but the notes to remember about movie theatres in Singapore:

1. You must choose your seat during purchase.
2. You can’t exit the same door you enter.
3. I can’t necessarily walk straight when I’m this tired.
4. Giddy laughter is fun.
