Walkin 'round

I took it easy tonight. I walked around the city for a few hours and just watched all of the people. I got watched too, you kinda stick out like a sore thumb when you're a tall white guy in a crowd of asians. Even the rare white person would look at me and other white people in sight with a look that said "you are rather out of place here". It was kind of fun I guess, but very lonely. It's so much more fun to explore a city when you're with friends.

I've seen more beautiful asians tonight than I believe I've ever seen in my entire life! I learned that you should avoid a beautiful woman who is sitting or standing around by herself and staring at you (I know its common sense, but I've never been solicited before). People watching is fun, its interesting to see that no matter where you go, there tend to be the same general types of people and situations. Varying cultures just put a different spin on these common situations. It's one of those things that's really hard to explain, so I'm just not going to try here.

I was reading Masato's blog, and man do I wish I could cook. There's a lot of interesting foods here, but I don't have anything to cook with here at the hotel, nor do I have the know-how to cook jack.

Anyways, someone from AIESEC Singapore finally got back in touch with me. There's nothing happening this weekend, but next weekend there is an AIESEC-Singapore monthly get together and the pre-IC national legislative meeting, which guests are allowed to attend. Sounds like fun to me! Guess that means I'll stay bored for this weekend. Talking to my boss is fine and all, but there's definitely that 20 year age difference keeping us from actually being buddies that hang out together.
