Boston 10 June 2008

Hi, I’m in Boston now.
For those who don’t know, I’m here for an internship and will be back in Singapore on early August.

Only reached my hostel yesterday night as the flight from Chicago to Boston was first delayed, then cancelled. We had to put up at the Days Inn on Sunday night and only reached Boston on Monday night, just in time to have no dinner . Luckily we had instant noodles that my housemate brought.

The weather in Boston is even hotter than Singapore. Ugh. At least that’s what we experienced on the first day. It’s worse in the room cause the walls here are thick to keep out the cold in winter. Everything here is freaking expensive O_o

Our hostel rooms are in a suite format, with multiple rooms attached to a kitchen and dining area. We have two toilets, with a total of 3 bathing cubicles so no issues about waiting. It’s quite spacious at least. The bad thing is that the dining area is infested with little flying bugs and there is only a pot, a saucepan, a frying pan and 3 pot lids, totally no cutlery, hangers etc. (That changed cause people bought some)

Yesterday we didn’t work, just went exploring round Cambridge. I had a stomachache from constipation (no fibre so I bought apples). My roommate wasn’t feeling well too and she’s been sleeping since we left for dinner last night (she didn’t go with us).

Hope you guys are fine over there in Singapore.
And hope you guys not in Singapore are fine wherever you are
