Thoughts of Singapore

Now that I am nearing the end of my stay in Singapore - 34 hours till my plane leaves...not that I am counting - I thought I'd share with you my thoughts on my first Asian experience.

• Every woman in Singapore weighs 90 pounds and is under 5' tall.


• When you sit at a resturaunt, you should add one to your party..because something is coming out with a face..and it might just still be alive enough to carry its part of the conversation.


• No one in Singapore believes in napkins....which may explain the food finger stains on all my clothes...


• It is impossible to hail a cab. You have to call and reserve one - not that it's easy to do that either.
  


• McDonalds chicken nuggets are the same...a real taste of home...and the Ketchup is still the Fancy kind


• Jell-o pudding costs $11.70 SGD. Thats like $8 USD.


• The national past time here is shopping. People shop constantly! Though not much of a problem for me. (see point #1)
• Every bathroom stall smells like someone was just in there and took a giant crap! Thats if there is even a toilet and not a hole in the floor.


• I can find a lot of my favorite British products at the pharmacy.


• You need a perscription for Gum.


• The Borders Books has no knitting books.
