our job was very simple. basically the entire time, we just walked around, drink wine, and mingle. it didnt even matter if we talk rubbish, you can tell when one of the girls walked past a man and his eyes lit up, because we were like fresh grass in the desert. we stood out in our hawaiian dressing.
anyway it was fun. i got to meet a number of interesting people! this guy who was supposedly in my sister og for the nus sports camp that i attended when i was in yr 1. wow! amazing that he still remembered me...but i really cant recall.. didnt help that he was bald now. another man from texas who studied mandarin in college, stayed in taiwan for a while, now working in hk, and in sg just for the forum. these people all have complicated travelling history. another canadian-taiwanese who was brought up in canada, but got his degree in havard, and worked in taiwan, japan and now in sg. aiyo.
they were all very nice people..one common conversational topic was,'what are you doing now?' and obviously i had to go on and on about oh just graduated, bumming ard cos i'm going states in aug, not sure what i want blah blah..and they all offered me advice...and all said it's okayy......it's okay to bum around! hahah..maybe they're just trying to make me feel better.
it was a nice event. the fireworks at the end was nice. it was weird that no one seemed particularly awed though. are fireworks not a big deal anymore?
