singapore



Mag and I went to the coolest retro antique shop in Singapore. I thought Singapore was dull, but Mag took me to up-and-coming hip streets of shops run by new entrepreneurs my age. We had the "best and cheapest" tea in the city and wandered around positing potential business scenarios for Mag.

I realized I have hit culture shock, and I'm still halfway across the globe. The hyper-consumerism and uber-stylishness of Singapore has come as a shock to my system (I haven't seen so many malls since the Orange County in Cali!) Coming home may be a challenge...
