SG

SG stands for Singapore, not for Show Girls !! XD


Due to GRE, it's my second time to visit Singapore.
Verbal part (430) is better than last time, but still not good enough. = =''''''

I stayed in the hotel in the afternoon to avoid the sun. In the evening, Dickson and I hung out in the city. Dickson is from Singapore and speaks fluent English and nearly perfect Chinese. I got to know him in class PHYS486 back in UI. It's really cool to know that Singapore government totally financially supports him to go to college, and gradschool as well. It took him only 3 years to finish undergraduate. Wow~

Then we went to ride in Singapore Flyer, which is the world's largest giant observation wheel with the height of 165 meters. A complete ride is about 30 minutes, and one gets to see the panoramic view of Singapore, including Merlion, city hall, nice auditoriums, parks by the water, fancy casinos under constructions...

Dickson is really a nice tour guide that he knows everything about Singapore. We talked about lots of other things as well, such as similarities and differences of SG and TW, physics, future plans for career and for girlfriend XD.

Hmm, I really need to know Taiwan in more depth, otherwise I cannot introduce for foreign friends....

The flight back home was bumpy and kinda scary before landing!
