Joanna :Awwww.Finally I find someone from the same place!  Where do you live in Singapore? I stayed at NTU, currently majoring in Computer Science. NTU is at Boon Lay, the most boring place (since it's on the very west of Singapore) *lol*. I've been on some places full of garbages which are indicating that Singapore is not that clean  . I guess the government only focusing on tourism objects, you know. Orchard, Sentosa Island, etc. Haha. Eh? You mean BATAM, right? because i think that's the closest Indonesia's territory with Singapore. I forgot where Bintan is actually. *lol * we should travel together sometimes! Give me a call when you come here again, hehe. Christina :Hi hun, your reply really makes me want to go to Australia even more! Oh can't wait until I have my own money to go travelling! Anyways, will there be any HP movie premiere there? Maybe I will go there to see the premiere since that's the closest one to Indonesia *lol*. aleunam :thank you for the welcome! I really enjoy being here so far

NTU as in Nanyang?? wow! that is sooo cool!! I know where Boon Lay is... my Dad and brother visited NTU last April I think because my Dad hires student to do some graphics for him as a project... and his business partner teach at NTU (not sure)... I will ask him...  yeah! I think Bintan is the closest one from the Singapore territory... no wonder its the one we're able to visit... hahaha! you dont need expensive air fare to visit another counyty... haha! My dad lives in Tanah Merah in the past... but now he lives in SengKang.. you know that place?? Its near Compass Mall.... ooohhh yeah!! sure... I will contact you maybe during Christmas vacation... aren't you heading back to Indonesia to spend time with your family? yes! Im looking forward to actually knowing someone from Singapore... imagine taking a very very long and frequent vacations and only talking to my brother and Dad for company... and when I'm not with them I usually travel alone... how exciting is that!! hahahahha.. and when I'm not going out I stay at home... online every day!! hahaha... |

Awww..not that cool, sweetie. yes, NTU as in Nanyang Tech Uni. Just a campus, anyway *blush*. Wow, so you've been to Nanyang before? Then we definitely should meet! Your dad is a professor? What project was he asking to NTU student? Now that's cool! *lol* totally agree with you! From Bintan (or Batam?) we can also enter Singapore with cheap way. No need for airplane. Haha. I know Tanah Merah! Gosh, it's very far from Boon Lay! It's like from west to east. SengKang? Hmm..I think I heard that before, but never been there. Let me check on the map . Aww...I will going back to Indonesia early Dec, and going back here after new Year...will you spend your new year vacation here also? Fireworks here are awesome! We can meet then . Next time, you come, let me know. I will give you my number for sure |

no!! that is pretty cool... if I have a chance I would definitely love to study in singapore... my dad thinks highly of the kind of education there... I haven't thought of studying in SIngapore back when I was in High School...so here I am a University Student here in Manila.. hahaha... taking up Journalism.. My dad was a professor at Raffles Lasalle in tha past... He's into multimedia and animation... so if Im not mistaken, they're letting NTU students to do some projects in Animation... I've seen there works... my dad said that it was good coming from a bunch of students... hahaha... I think SEngKang is a new development in singpore... not a lot of people from that particular area... quite far from the City... second to the last station of the purple MRT line... ooohhh!! if im staying in SIngapore for Christmas... It is sure that i'll still be there for NEw Year... hahahahaha... I think... another person in this forum is also from SIngapore.... ow yes!! I added you to my MSN list of contacts already.. but can't seem to catch you online... no worries... December is still less than a month from now... |

Aw Journalism! That's my childhood dream. Too bad my dad wanted me to go into technological stuffs. Blah. So here I am, ended on Computer Science (which makes me want to kill my self sometimes. The workloads here are crazy!) Raffles Lasalle? I heard about it once. Where is it located? This weekend I'm planning to take break from studying like hell (it's near exams, actually ), maybe I will travel around Singapore, so I might find the place . Oh so it's animation? NTU has a new school called Art Design Media. Maybe that's your father was doing? With the student there? So what's your father doing now? I know that SengKang must be on purple line! I remember there are no SengKang station on red nor green line. It's near Clarke Quay then...have you ever been there?? Great, then we're surely can meet! I will PM you my number, kay? I will go back here aroun Jan 5. Is it okay for you?? Then ask the other Singaporean to join us . More people, more fun December is coming closer...Hometown, I'm coming!! *desperately want to go home  * |

oooohhhh!! I've been to clarke quaye!!! hahahaha... that's where the G-MAX is right? a lot of clubs and stuff... i love it there... i've only been there once though... my dad handles his animation business... they makes cartoons and all that stuff... hahaha... they make animations for television programs.. something like that! hahaha.. well, me in the other hand had no choice but to take up journalism... my dad wanted me to take it, he wants me to take a course related to media... hahaha... but all i wanted to study is European Studies... I wanted to abroad but he doesn't want me to go because he thinks that im too young... Journalism is really crazy too... all the readings and the writings... memorization, mathematic equations... the projects! exams!! hahahaha... we'll get through it! 2 years more and im finish... i'll be able to travel by then and take up history.. I'll check my schedule... my classes end December 20... so by then I'll head to SIngapore, its only a 3 hours trip... dunno when I'll come back... I hope its after new year... its definitely after new year but i was hoping to stay some more days to relax... hahaha.. when are you going home? |

Is there any math equation in Journalism? Wow, I never knew that! Heee..how young are you when you entered college?? I read on other thread that you're 18 now! So young! I was 18 when I first entered my college. So now I'm 20 . I've never been to Clarke Quay . I just heard that that's a place where there is lots of club. Haha. Oh so your father does animation? Wow, i really want to see it! Is there any sample that I can take a look at? . My classes are already ended now XD. Now I'm struggling for the upcoming exams. Starting at Nov 21 and ended at Nov 27. After that, I'm planning to go back to Indonesia around Dec 6 or Dec 5. When will you start the new term on Phillipines? |

i finished high school when I was 17... im a sophomore now in college... just turned 18... hahahaha!! 2 years to go and im on my own... hahahah!! maybe our countries have like different system of education... like in the singapore one they follow the british system right? ours is quite different... we can talk about it when we get to meet... share information about our countries..!! hahaha.. i do know some things about indonesia and singapore... we've studies indonesia just this past semester... learned about PANCASILA... is that even right? then we've studied about Sukarno, SUharto, Megawati Sukarnoputri... and a little of where the Indonesia started... it was interesting... hahahahah!! (im blabbing.. can't stop!) oohh.. i'll ask my dad where I can get a preview of there work... its usually for the singapore government... okay.. let me explain our college system... summer break is usually from APRIL to MAY... 1st semester starts 1st week of JUNE then ends 1st week of OCTOBER (which is also our final exams)... then a 3 week sem break... i just started 2nd semester 2 days ago... and it will end MARCH of next year.... but between that is a 2 week christmas vacation... which im looking forward to! Journalism does have math classes, we have statistic, finance and all that sort... but its part of our GENERAL education... we also have SCIENCE classes like Biology... but our classes mainly contains English grammar, expository writing... we have a lot of subjects per semester... i have like 10 subjects right now.. including a PHYSICAL EDUCATION class which is once a week (football) |
