Goodbye to summery Singapore

A couple of days more before I say goodbye to summery Singapore.

To sum up this summer, the first time back home has been rather fruitful and fulfilling, though the weather is still unbearable. 7 weeks of internship at wanbao was rewarding with novel unforgettable experiences and extremely friendly and humane colleagues. Immediately after which was 2 weeks of YEP in the land of a thousand smiles. Like a friend had written, “This opportunity to travel abroad to challenge ourselves, to help a less fortunate community, to do something meaningful in summer was more than just that. New names and new faces forged lasting friendships, the revitalizing knowledge of a job well done due to the enthusiasm and hard work of every vital member.”

This YEP has certainly raised the possibility of volunteering in the hearts of many of us, which we hope to realise in the near future.

No serious travelling was done this summer though. This was my only regret.

Nevertheless, summer 2004 was a great one for me, which hopefully heralds the start of a great autumn as well.

(A short holiday to Paris or Prague before term starts will be great to start off the new academic year. Still contemplating… :p)
