A month in pictures

July 13th, 2008 by lynnylchan under My Life

Graffiti that I left behind on the wall outside C205, as a permanent reminder of my stay. Permanent until they renovate, anyway. It reads “Lynn Chan lived here, 26.12.04 - 10.5.08″. My goodness, it’s like an epitaph on a headstone.

I was at Novena Square on the 6th of July supporting Hair for Hope, an event by the Children’s Cancer Foundation where volunteers raise pledges for shaving their heads. My friend Kelvin was a shavee, and this was right before his convocation ceremony, so hats off to him! (pun intended)

As you can see, Tan Kheng Hua was the emcee, and I was a bit starstruck so I took a picture. Although in Singapore, seeing your local TV celebrities is quite a commonplace affair, ya?

Dinner at Tetsu in Tanglin Mall, because my parents came down for my convocation and Gabriel sent me the restaurant review right before. It wasn’t bad. This is my a la carte selection of tempura and kushi-age (I think that’s the term for the breaded stuff).

My mum’s set meal. Comes with the usual rice, soup, etc.

This is dessert. Some chewy green-tea-powdered jelly thing with konnyaku strips underneath.

I actually wanted to take that nice piece of patterned paper under the bowl, but that’s beyond cheap. Also it was a bit damp.

I’ve been pretty much stuck in the same areas of Singapore for the past month or so - home, work, occasionally Orchard. Perhaps one day I’ll go hiking in the nature park nearby, just for a change of pace. When you work in the city and look at concrete buildings all day long while the air-con hums at you, scenery consisting of trees and birdsong sounds like a real treat.
