Singa-WHAT?

Wow.  Longest day of my life, easily, and it's nowhere close to over!  I landed in Singapore after a four and a half hour flight from Darwin, promptly threw my backpack into storage, and hopped on the train to downtown.  That was a little intimidating at first, given that it was a new currency in a new country with a new transit system, but it was really easy to use.  Singapore is an incredibly easy city to figure out, mainly since everybody speaks English.  This is probably because there are four to five major ethnic groups in Singapore, and none of them speak the same language, so English is the easiest intermediate....

I got off the train in downtown with my small travel backpack on, and set out for.....adventure...I suppose?  I ended up in Little India, and promptly inhaled the BEST curry of my entire life, which was so satisfying given that I hadn't eaten since about 1 o'clock earlier that day.  Though I definitely ate WAY too much, as the thought of roaming the streets was NOT appealing after that....So worth it though :D  

Afterwards, I roamed the streets more, saw the Parliament House, History Museum, and some other cool landmarks before coming across the lone traveler's MECCA.  A 24 hour shopping complex.  YESSSS.  The only thing that was slowing me down was the fact that Singapore is about 2 hours behind Melbourne, which is the time zone I'm still currently stuck on, so by 10 p.m., I felt like it was midnight, and given that I've been going to sleep before 10 p.m. Melbourne time every night.....I was sleepy.  So I headed back to the airport a little after 1 a.m., crashed in a chair for about 2 hours (didn't think I could sleep so long in a chair, but apparently exhaustion will do that to you), and am now preparing to get on my plane to Cambodia.

AH!  I can't believe it's already time for Cambodia!!  This adventure of mine is flying by, but I'm loving every second of it.  I never thought traveling alone could be so satisfying, but I'm really enjoying having time to myself with my own thoughts, not worrying about anybody else, doing things at my pace.  Though it will be REALLY nice to meet up with Michelle in Cairo, since I've missed playing with her a LOT. 

Anyways, I'm super-tired, and I'd rather not pass out and miss check-in for my flight, so I'll update from Cambodia!! 

p.s. - PASSPORT STAMPS ARE SO EXCITING!!
