Some relief...

So apparently it's not a big deal if I was to fail a course here. Just one though. Rice will not put a fail grade on my transcript from courses taken here... hallelujah, or however that's spelled. Still need 12 credit hours though, so I would have to make sure to pass at least 3 out of 4. Should be much less stressful than I originally imagined though. So I'm actually looking again at travel options over weekends, perhaps Bangkok, since I really enjoyed Thailand and it was easy to travel there, or Tioman Island, which is supposedly just a ferry ride away from Singapore. Was thinking about Bali, but if Aunt Sandra visits from Shanghai I said I would go with her to Bali.

Hmm nothing really new happened this week. Lots of projects and other work that I should be working on. I feel tired already, and it's only noon now, on a Friday. Hope to go out today again in the evening, but now I'm just sipping bubble tea and staring memorized at the personal fan I now I have on my desk, blowing right in my face. A friend lent me this extra fan... and I must admit, as much as I wanted to come to Singapore for warm weather, having this fan makes sitting in my poorly ventilated room much better. It's also fun to talk to, chopping up my voice and reflecting back a distorted echo.

Yea, that's really all for today, blog-lecture ends early this time. As for homework for this week, I should work on projects, do travel research, and as always, do something new in Singapore.
