Promise of a grand faculty has been swapped for a conference room in the city's Collins Street, why do I feel so cheated? =) Politics, they say, is the reason behind having classes in the city and not on campus. And the city, is yes, $9.90 away from home, and probably an hour's worth of travel.

Also on the radar...
It's been a while since I've been here, and I'm quite quickly reminded to the rising costs of living on this behemoth of an island.
Just today I spent
$9.90 - Daily train/tram ticket to get to school
$13.50 - Cheap As phone I picked up from a Chinese discount store
$3.95 - For a telephone extension cable
$2.00 - For a telephone multi-adaptor
$5.45 - Cheap As McDonald's happy meal for lunch
$9.45 - for 5 stamps for regular postage back to Singapore
The train ticket just killed me. That's $13SGD to get from Pasir Ris to Jurong.
