Saving ian-han.blogspot.com

Well done, Ian. 2 and a half weeks not posting anything. So this post is about salvaging what Ive remembered for my first 2 weeks in NUS of the year. But what amazes me is that blog counter was raised from 40 something to 100+ over this period. Not bad, considering that I only told less than 10 friends about this blog. Well, I'm not bothered with the presence of visitors, since my main aim for this blog is to train myself blogging once I'm out travelling in Europe again this April.


Been laying low, but had watchful eyes on you.

First Week (6 till 13 Jan)
Now I understand the rationale of regular blogging. Unless I have short-term memory, I have to dig my brains out to remember what I've done for that period, to the extent of looking through the IHG (Inter Hall Games) calender.

Friday, right after I posted the previous post, went to Vivo City to catch a movie named, "Charlotte's Web" with Wey Ling, Jiet Shern, Ai Lin and her bf, Jesse.

Yeah, something like Babe the pig, but without any 'Baa-Ram-Ewe' action with other sheeps under his command. This movie is more about friendship, love and.. you get the picture la.
Later went to eat dinner @ Kim Gary. Singapore's first Kim Gary that was opened recently. Same kind of dishes there, but the baked rice+soup+drink is about 9.90 Sing dollars. A nice restaurant considering it faces the sea and Sentosa Island outside.

First week was nothing much to mention, apart from watching the Queen on Friday, bugging Japheth about SHout, watching and supporting IHG games, meeting Charmaine in most games that involves my hall and hers and attended a total of 2 hours of class for the week. I think I haven't mention this in my blog, I'm not only 2 modules for this sem, since I'll be leaving for exchange to Munich before final exams. So, that is why I'm taking non-examinable modules, like my German and projects. But attending this 2 hours class is worth mentioning, cos this Automotive Engineering specialisation lecture involves everything you need to know about cars, but of course more technical. Lets just say, this lecture is finally something I can pay attention to. Another thing is the lecturer's language and vocabulary is.. somewhat acceptable and same frequency to a small class with all guys inside. NUS just bought a Caterham recently also for 'Study Purpose' just for us. Good job! Hope that they'll allow us to take a spin with it. This machine can go 0-100 kph in 3-4 secs. Sweet.

Another picture to share. The 'Sea of Orange' supporting the badminton team. Honestly, I always thought cheering seems gay, but joining a group of friends who bang bottles on wooden blocks, blowing whistles, screeming around and blaring horns is a good experience after all.

Try and find me

Second Week (6 till 13 Jan)
Went to Vivocity with Potato and ZQ (sorry I dont know how to spell your name). Took them to Kim Gary for lunch. Realised the queue in front was longer than my first visit. I guess HK food took a late start here in Singapore compared to Malaysia, but a very promising 1.

This is what we see from Kim Gary.

Check out Merlion's cousin in front of the ship compared to the real Merlion far behind on the Sentosa Island.

Later that evening, me and JK went down to Suntec, Siam Kitchen for Jun Ming's farewell dinner joined by all the Rag-kias, Jian Wei, Choon Han, Yen Bin, and Weyling. Will get the pictures from Choon Han and Yen Bin soon.

Will update later.. too tired already.. signing off!
