It was but a (insatiable) dream...

it has been more than a week since my return from Fukuoka, Japan. i wasn't able to blog as much as i would have liked to when i was in japan as my schedule was packed with activities and every single day there was so much happening.

i remember choking with tears when i was in the plane on the way back to Singapore. it really seemed like a dream to me. memories from the day i submitted my application form for the scholarship & the days i gazed out at the streets of Singapore as i stood next to the doors in the MRT before i left for Japan to the overwhelming experiences that was jam-packed in 6 weeks in a land i so much desired to set foot on. although the experience's over, all is not lost. friendships were forged with people across continents and connections were made. i am extremely grateful to the many kind souls who had made my trip possible.

now that i am back, i hope to open more doors and pave the way for a longer stay in Japan.
however, my immediate concern has to be money. and this sem i really gotta fight my way to better grades.
