Photo diary

Didn't do so well with that "one blog post a day for a week" commitment. Le sigh. Going to compensate by showing you pictures of me making an ass of myself instead.


Here I am with the roomies, hanging out in our apartment in Serangoon -- which I affectionately call "The Goon" -- getting ready for our first night out together. Going out means clubbing around here: big, glowing, thumping, fog machine- and Kylie Minogue-heavy clubs. Not quite used to that, since I'm more of a pub, beer and peanuts-on-the-floor girl, so I need to be persuaded a bit.


A few drinks and one slightly offensive pose later, I'm ready to go. Did not wear hat out to club.


Princeton in Asia: Chris '03 and I hang out at Mark's bday party at Zouk.


Greg and his roommates/fellow PiAers


Here I am outside my office building in Chinatown -- it's a street of old shophouses with tin roofs, colorful shutters, etc. Really cool area w/ great food.


This is over at East Coast Park, where you can rent rollerblades and go a couple miles up and down the shoreline.


Greg hadn't rollerbladed in a decade or so, so I was impressed that neither or us wiped out or took down any small children on the path (there were a lot -- rollerbladers, joggers, and bikers all on the same route. Kind of Central Park on a Saturday afternoon).


Loosely translated: Don't feed the cats fish in East Coast Park. Or something like that.


And finally, the view a couple miles up the coast: check out the city's skyline. Nice, very nice.

More to come...

UPDATE: All photos of my first few days in Singapore.
