A Trip That I Never Looked Forward To…

I’ll be off to Singapore tomorrow night approximately around 10.30pm, and I’ll reach there the next morning…why???…cause I’m taking the frigging  train!!…it takes 8 to 10 hours!!…and there is no way that i can talk myself out of it. It’s a compulsory college trip..

When they first started talking about and planning the trip I thought I could totally get away, cause my passport was with the college for the renewal of my student visa, which normally takes almost 2 months. But nonetheless I went to the student affairs every other day to check whether the passport was done. And no, that was not me being eager to go on the trip. That was just me trying to make them believe that I was really into it and that i really wanted to go even though deep down I dreaded the thought of having to spend even 4 days with a bunch of people who; 1) loves pop music 2) eats rice in the morning 3) gathers at night and play cards while drinking coconut!..well I could go on and on..

Well here is the thing…I got a text message early this morning which said ‘ your passport is ready for collection from the office. have a nice trip’…first i thought it was a joke, so i checked the number and yes, my lecturer sent me the text. So here I am, packing and trying to think of ways to keep me going for the next few days….
