Rain Time.

It’s easy to forget you’re in a jungle rainforest when walking around Singapore, until it rains. Since I’ve been here it has rained for about an hour everyday and let me tell you it rains hard. I’ve never been in storms that produced such heavy rain. The sky turns black, streets turn into rivers, and there is no protecting yourself.

Moving on. Imagine the smelliest dirty ghetto with bugs running around and extreme heat. Now imagine there’s a big fine for having alcohol and rules about girls and noise and guests. That’s my residence. It’s in a great condo complex with a great gym and a 25 metre pool, but the NUS residence condo itself looks like it hasn’t been cleaned or repaired in 30 years. Needless to say I’m looking for other accommodations. Check out the pictures here, but please note the pictures make the place look alright . . . its not.

Hey Travels! It's Swales here and you're way over there...wow. We actually (jas, my hubby) went on a 12 day tour in November to China. It was pretty awesome but not as intense as actually having to live over there. That's nuts. Keep us posted! :)
