Singapore Photos
I started doing some sightseeing today, because Visa said they’d send me my check card on Tuesday. Hurray!
It was muggy and sweaty as all get-go, but here’s some photos of the sites:

Singapore 1, Japan 0
Okay, so I haven’t had a chance to really explore Singapore, given the whole debit card fiasco. However, I did do some people watching while I was over at the mall. First, even the food court Indian food is killer (Thanks, diverse population!).
Second, the mall could be a mall in Bellevue – same feeling, in [...]

The Eaten ATM Card
I’ve heard of dogs eating your homework , but this is ridiculous –

Konnichiwa, Asia.
Well, it’s time for me to set off for Asia. I’ve been diligently planning, packing, and so forth, so now it’s time to reap the rewards and go off and travel. It’s a fairly grueling schedule, but I will try to update my blog as much as possible. First stop: Singapore!

How did I know I was back in Seattle after spending about 15 days in Hawaii? Well, it was 50 degrees and raining. Home sweet home.
This recruiting trip to Hawaii passed rather quickly – between island hopping, visiting schools, organizing a College Planning Day, and interviewing twenty or so students, there was precious little time [...]

The Underwater Videos of Doom
I bought an underwater case for my camera last year, so I squeezed some more use out of it, both SCUBA diving and at Hanauma Bay. Sorry for the super-shaky-cam, but it’s hard to get the hang of SCUBA diving while trying to snap some photos.
1. Funky Fish swimming off Waikiki
2. It’s a Honu!
3. [...]
