Today marks the 1st month anniversary of my relocation to Singapore. So it is a perfect time to take stock of what I have done for the past 30 days. Here they are:
- Wept from sheer joy upon receiving news of my acceptance to Fulbright
- Boarded the DHL hot air balloon
- Closed a fantastic deal to rent a room in an awesome condo
- Got lost a couple of times- erase erase those were unplanned "sight-seeing"
- Ate at hawkers centers; binged on satay at Lau Pa Sat; learned how to eat Xiaolongbao at Legend Chinese Restaurant; watched in amazement at how Roti Pratas are cooked; and sampled Moroccan, Indian, Egyptian, Malaysian & Indonesian food
- Overspent on shopping
- Drooled over hi-tech gadgets & gizmos at the Computer Expo
- Fantasized about actually living in one or more of the demo rooms of Ikea
- Volunteered for the National Museum of Singapore
- Fell in love & got my heart broken- oh wait that was a couple of years ago. Totally over that one!
- And finally, I met, interacted and exchanged contact information with 2 extremely inspiring people: Illac Diaz and Anousheh Ansari
Now isn't this such a fabulous start? What a sweet sweet life indeed- la dolce vita!

You seem to have accomplished a lot! :)
I wanted to extend my absolutely heartfelt congratulations for your Fulbright and especially your faith. I read the August entry and then this one and I am so happy for you, as I pray for my 08/09 Fulbright.
