The first couple days in Singapore

It's the beginning of my third day here in Singapore, and I'm in love with this place! I left the hotel on Sunday morning before 9am and walked around until about 2pm, I have no idea how far I walked, but I didn't stop moving almost the entire time, so it was pretty impressive. Every inch of this place is beautiful, even when we drove down to the port, it still managed to remain beautiful!

I wish I could take pictures of the port area, Jurong Island, it's extremely beautiful in an industrial way. The jungle of machinery and metal walkways climbing hundreds and hundreds of feet into the air is incredible! Especially the oil rigs that they're assembling, those things are freaking juggernauts.

It's a much more international city than I expected, there are people from all over the world walking around. The majority are the Chinese, followed by the Malay, Japanese, and Indians. The majority of food is Chinese and Japanese. I've never seen so many Asians in one place before! I stand at least 2 or 3 inches taller than 99.9% of the people around here. The Malay are interesting because I've met very few in my life, mostly just Firdaus. I see a whole lot of versions of Firdaus walking around, both male and female, and yes, I do find that funny.

One of the cool things about working with Varec, my boss got me upgraded to a room on the Executive Floor, which means free breakfasts (which are actually incredible and feature a ton of different foods), and free drinks in the executive lounge if I want them. All in all, it's a pretty sweet deal, they're taking good care of me to be here.

Lessee, I'll be posting more often on this blog since I'm 12 hours off from Atlanta and it's rather hard to talk to anyone unless its early as hell in the morning. I'm still fighting off jet lag, but I'll adjust pretty quickly, I think. I've always had a knack for changing my sleep schedule on a dime.
