Many meals are served with rice, but not these. These speak for themselves.
Along with my regular Spotify playlists and liked songs, I've been getting back into listening to piano pieces since I miss practicing so much. I have been enjoying a lot of Chopin, Ravel and Rachmaninoff. I found tickets to a concert in March where they will be playing Rachmaninoff's 2nd Concerto. I'm super excited!
I loved getting to spend time studying, playing cards and getting dinner with my friends! I've met a ton of great people at school so far. It's especially easy to make friends with other exchange students, since we're all in a common situation. On top of that, there is a huge exchange student body here at NUS. The local students I've met are super friendly and accomodating as well.
Unfortunately, most of my reading this week was lecture slides for my classes. When school starts up, there's not always a ton of time to fit reading for pleasure into my day. However, I did recently finish the first Hunger Games book, and am looking forward to starting the second one!
I played some soccer this week with some other NUS (National University of Singapore) students. Although my schedule doesn't allow for me to join the intramural team, I still love to play when I can.
Classes are heating up! The first few weeks of the semester did not prepare me for how much homework I would have.
