Singapore makes me feel...
Tall
I look up every now and then in the lift at work and it feels unusual to be the tallest in there!
Hot
When we go out dancing I get far more attention than I do back home. This might be the rather rampant misbehaviour in the expat scene (I think I am only detecting the tip of a fairly large iceberg there) or a lack of caucasian females, or maybe I am just hotter than I realised.
Fast
I still walk a lot more quickly along the footpath than the locals. I am trying to slow down, I really am!
Cool
Actually this has nothing to do with Singapore, but check out this link:

I have had this t-shirt for more than 2 years - how much of a trend-setter am I?
More Photos
A couple more photos of what's been going on here:
Singing in the taxi
K! known to Australians as Karaoke, a single letter here will suffice. Do you think I can learn cantonese by listening to my friends sing?
Cows - not sure why, but there are a whole bunch of them on a little hill up the road

You know, when someone sends you a link to something cool and you use that link in a post, it's generally considered good blogging etiquette to acknowledge the original source ;)
Oh, and regarding the cows, a quick Google search turns up a couple of other people who've also taken photos of them. The caption on one photo says it was taken in the Little India district of SG - if this is the case, I guess they're there because it's a little impractical to keep the real thing around to worship?
Well, yes, I sent you an email about using your link - but I wasn't sure about whether t was cool to be looking at a website called 'cool hunting'. But now that you have revealed that you do read such a site, then yes, thanks for sending me the link!
And as for the cows, I didn't see them in Little India, and they don't really look like the religious ones on the temples - but maybe you're onto something!
