Day 23

Hello everyone, it has been a while. Um the past three days I have been busy with work. I did manage to go to a 24 hour shopping center in Little India on Friday. This place is huge it is two building with five stories each. It has everything! It has food to books to clothes to electronics to hygiene. You name it they will have it somewhere you just have to find it and remember how you got there and how to get back to your spot. From there I almost got hit by a motorcycle. I thought the light was red for the on coming traffic but apparently not so Jubi yelled at me and pulled me back. That woke me up. Also once I got to work I tried to get hit in the head with a metal container when I was trying to pull parchment from underneath it. Saturday I got to see some fireworks while setting up for work. They are practicing their fireworks for Singapore's National Day in August so every Saturday there will be fireworks till their National Day. During one of the shuttle rides I got completmented on my eyes, eye lashes, and eyebrows. The guy was like I can tell those are natural. Apparently here many women like to draw on their eyebrows as well as put on fake lashes. It is extremely funny when I go into the dresser room and I see all the women putting on lashes in the mirror. I really am enjoying the experience I am having here. There are so many jokes and people that I have met so far the I will charish. It is funny the other day one of the waitresses thought I was younger than 18 and covered my ears when something was said because of the previous student that was here just turned 19, while she was here I believe and the waitress thought I was the same age. I know I have like less than two months till I am twenty but who is counting :). If I could get on a nice sleep schedule I could probably get myself to get to the Botanic Gardens and the gym before work haha. I am really enjoying the food here besides the fact that it is really greasy and contains chili sauce in almost everything. My favorite thing to eat is Chapagetti, Korean noodles as well as Thai sausage, chicken rice of course. Well that is a small update have not done much. I have learned a few more words in chinese so maybe I will come back speaking sentences I don't know but it would be awesome!
