Okay, here's a little followup on my accommodation situation: It's not all that bad. Monday at midnight, we registered for the waiting list for on-campus accommodation. So if we're lucky, we'll still be able to get a room on campus... but that's mostly a question of luck, I think. I submitted my app 11mins past midnight, so that might even be too late already. We'll see!
However, our current apartment really isn't that bad. I've got cool flatmates, we've got a magnificient view from the 20th floor, access to the roof for an even better panorama view, and if we have to stay there, we'll go and get our own internet connection. Youssef, one of my roommates, brought his saxophone, and we've been jamming a bit: I bought myself a guitar for S$36 - about 16-18€. It's a horrible piece of crap, but it does the job... and it's blue!
This coming weekend, I'll be going to Malaysia for a beach trip, more specifically: to Pulau Rawa. It's supposed to be a really nice island to hang out on the beach, so we'll see! I'll definitely take along that new guitar, I think!
Yesterday, I went to Aikido training, and I realized how much I missed it. You may or may not know, but I already did Aikido for a few months about 4 years ago, until a lecture got in the way of training. There are a lot more people here than what I was used to (I think we were at max 10 people back in Germany, here it's more like 30-40), and quite a large number of black belts too. Training will be twice a week, and only S$15 a month! I stuck around a bit after training, and one of the senseis is doing a little informal Shinkendo group - Samurai sword fighting! That's just so cool. So yeah, my Tuesdays and Fridays will be fun! Even though when I woke up this morning, every part of my body hurt like a bitch... yarr.
