Another death. Someone committed suicide somewhere last week. I can't really remember the exact date but he was a friend of Fox and Andrew. He killed himself a day before going back to Japan. We all didn't know how he died, cause the police and the MRS office kept everything slient. He killed himself due to culture shock and the stress level. He is from a very popular university in Japan and was here to do an exchange program for a year. And, he has only been here for less than a month. Sigh, I think this is a super sad case. I'm so grateful that I made super nice friends here, and have the support of my family. I think I am really lucky to have a lot of friends around me here. People like Christine, Pao pao, Cindy, Elle, Ling, Pauline, SY, Fumie, Alia, Alan, JW, Raimie, Brian and etc. haha. Too many le. All in all, people in my floor and hall are super happening and of course nice. Haha. Last but not least, the super fun-loving RA, Katja, who shared her mummy's home-made carrot cake with the whole of 9th floor. It was delicious, I had 3 servings. Hee =P

*I am really glad I stayed in the halls. Cause, I don't think I would ever forget this wonderful experience I gained here. And, of course, the different friends I made here, sharing our own culture, language and whatnots* hee.

Anyway, when I first came here, I was feeling a little inferior, cause people here all knows at least three languages and above!! Luckily I have a Japanese, otherwise I need to start digging a hole to hide already. Haha. Now, I want to learn Cantonese from either Ling, Fox or JW. Cause, Fox told me that he was surprise that I didn't understand Cantonese as all the other Singaporeans he met, all knew Cantonese. Don't be too surprise if I go back to Singapore speaking Cantonese. Hee. And, I also want to learn some Malay from Alan or Alia. Learn a bit of French and Spanish from Briane. Hee. Am I been too greedy here? =P
