You could find a good pizza (yes, you can &#8211; seriously &#8211; Sapore Italiano is a good example of authentic Italian food), delicious American food (I go to Jerry\u2019s BBQ and Grill when I\u2019m feeling homesick), and of course Asian. Japanese, Malay, Indonesian, Indian, and of course Chinese cuisine is present in abundance. And Singaporeans care a lot about their food so they have high standards &#8211; so the food can be delicious&#8230; that is, if it isn\u2019t caf or dorm food!

In a few hours, I, a Canadian &#8211; am having a bunch of friends over; an American, a Dutch, an Indonesian, and a Singaporean! My project partner for Journalism was an exchange student from Vietnam. It\u2019s really wonderful to get to know people all of the world, with a huge diversity of religions, nationalities, cultures, and backgrounds. You begin to learn that we\u2019re really not that different after all. College students share a common experience of papers, exams, all-nighters, And since, as I mentioned, Singapore is so cosmopolitan, it attracts people from all over!\u00a0Singaporeans are also very warm and fun to be around. The younger Singaporeans are very helpful and caring. However, Singaporeans are difficult to penetrate in terms of friendship. Sometimes you can say that making friends with Singaporeans is like opening a durian (to people who like durians) &#8211; sometimes a bit prickly at first but if you make enough of an effort, loads of wonderful goodness comes out and it\u2019s a lot of fun!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3064\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3064\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singapore-ppl1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3064\" title=\"singapore ppl\" src=\"http:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singapore-ppl1-300x249.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singapore-ppl1-300x249.png 300w, https:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singapore-ppl1-360x300.png 360w, https:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singapore-ppl1.png 531w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3064\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hangin&#39; with more friends<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The classes! <\/strong>One of the best things about going on exchange is that I can take classes that aren\u2019t offered at McGill. I got to take Adolescent Psychology, Life Course Sociology, and Journalism subjects I\u2019m really interested in but are not offered at all at McGill. But beware &#8211; make sure you get all your courses approved first! I decided to drop one of the courses I was approved for because I felt I lacked the prerequisite background. At the last minute, I figured I\u2019d take advantage of a journalism course that was offered as there is no journalism department at McGIll and it is something I am considering pursuing as a career. Unfortunately, I only found out halfway through the semester, long after<em> <\/em>the add-drop period, that my credits would not be transferred and they would not accept the course towards my degree, not even as an elective! Fortunately I have enough credits to graduate due to advanced placement courses but it\u2019s still a bummer since I will not be considered as having a full courseload, which means my scholarship may be revoked!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3065\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3065\" style=\"width: 221px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singaporefood.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3065\" title=\"singaporefood\" src=\"http:\/\/oldblog.studyabroad101.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/singaporefood.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"221\" height=\"166\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3065\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Milo!

This is definitely needed, as the mess of work can get so hectic it\u2019s extremely easy to fall behind in readings, especially if you want to have even a little bit of fun. NUS is a very competitive university. Not exactly\u00a0<em>hard. <\/em>The workload and difficulty is reasonable. However, grading is on a bell curve, so there is a huge race to the top that is nerve-wracking to even the most zen people. Beware of easy classes and classes with low standard deviations. Your grade then literally becomes a crapshoot. In easy classes, a 93 could be a B. In classes with teensy standard deviations, like my psych class, Had I got 4 more questions wrong I would have gone from an A to a C. So to make a long story short, it\u2019s really nice to be able to sort of unwind but also feel confident that you have enough time to dedicate yourself to your studies.\u00a0This reading week, I was given a wonderful opportunity to shadow a surgeon at Mount Elizabeth Hospital!
