5AM

  • Land from 12h flight. Feeling insane
  • Get a bunch of CASH \(\)
  • Overcome anxiety of ordering food at a stall in the airport. Somehow whether or not they accept credit cards is scary to me. Everything is scary at first. Also I barely slept.

9:00AM

  • Decide to transit instead of Ubering for the views. Figured out MRT system along the way. Very cute transit cards here.

10:00AM

  • Check in to Airbnb
  • Unpack, hang clothes up.

1:30PM

  • First 7-11 trip. It’s so fucking sick hell yeah. Had to buy a towel cause the Airbnb didn’t have any. What’s up with that…
  • Stroll around. The heat is oppressive. Need sunscreen.
  • Overcome fear/embarrassment of wearing Meta Raybans everywhere. Start recording almost every second of my time here.

4:30PM

  • Pass out

Thoughts

  • I’m writing this one retroactively and am not able to capture how confused I felt navigating the city at first.
  • I’m actively avoiding speaking English and choosing to translate text using my phone first even if I could just choose to say it in English.
  • The city is really, really cute. People are dressed very casually.
  • The MRT is very quiet.
