Its been 2 wks since i last posted on the blog. Been too busy. After the last post (13 Feb), i went down to George Bush Library for an interview (thurs, 15Feb) then set off for Austin (Fri, 16 Feb). Then i came back from Austin on late evening (Sun, 18 Feb) and I barely have much time to finish my 6 pieces of homewk due the following wk + studying for 2 exams which was on 22Feb & 23 Feb. Argh.
But there's the bbq at Crocker on Fri, 23Feb and our Int'l audition on Sun, 25 Feb. I'll blog more about these stuff later. I just finished my exam (today, 27 Feb) Okie, i shall start with the interview!
One of the pic with the horses is really a section of the Berlin Wall! During the Cold War, George Bush was very instrumental in bringing the Cold War to an end and the coming down of the Berlin Wall. So when Germany gt news that Bush is building his presidential library, they helped to construct this part.
More info: Graffiti appeared only on the western side as the eastern side of the Wall was guarded by the armed soldiers of East Germany.
The main reason for our visit there is because the 9 of us (exchange students), are the 1st time Texas A&M had exchange students from Singapore. We are so called the 1st batch! So, there's this reporter who wants to do an article on us, which will be featured in the University's annual book. Its not just a one-off thing, the reporter wants us to email her regularly to update her about our views/feelings/experiences. Ya, though it sounds like its v mafan that we have to keep updating her, she's really a very humorous, friendly lady so you won't feel like its a chore.
