here in santa cruz!

hey everyone, i'm in santa cruz now! it's SO COLD...
the wind is really strong...

i tell ya... we dun appreciate singapore til we're
away... santa cruz is this really small town...
internet access costs US$3 for 15 min... extortion
rite???
i know...

i'm using free internet in the public library now. can
use for 1 hr... oh man.. the smell man beside me got
up and is replaced by another smelly man! they STINK!

neway i've been walking everywhere.. it's quite fun..
think i'll become really fit after this 5 mths. food
is expensive too. i've started cooking. gotten to know
the other singaporeans... they're alright.

went with a few of them to san jose (silicon valley)
nothing to do there... but we had city withdrawal.
haha... there're actually tall buildings and shopping
malls there!!!!! huge gigantic ones!!! fabulous...
nothing like that in santa cruz. haha

got a cell phone... number (831) 2953893

can sms me... i might sms back.. heh...

neway it's really cold anyway... really... really
cold... esp at night... in the day it's cold... but
bearable...

pace of life is slow... havent started work yet... so
we're just slacking away.. really slacking... walking
around... looking at everything... :)

oh man... there're these crazy people living
downstairs.. and they regularly go into crazy fits.

last last night, i was woken up 3 times!!! 1st, at
12am there were these 2-3 people sitting out in the
courtyard talking really loudly. i could hear their
ENTIRE conversation. then they left. THEN at 2am, some
other people came and held a conversation outside my
window again... really LOUDLY. THEN at 4pm, the
neighbours decided to go crazy and make noise... they
played trumpets, banged on tins, and generally made
NOISE( not music). i went down to scold them, and met
another neighbour who was drunk i think, and kept
persuading me not to report them... all this while the
people in the room were still making their own music
(noise)... growl... in the end i went back to my room,
and i think the housing admin came to stop them at
5.30. only slept at 5.45 and then woke up at 6.45 to
go to san jose (pronounced ho-se)...

oh well that has been my exciting life so far...
havent seen many hunks.. hahaz... been too cold to
look out for any...
