Now, I am already the mother of two kids
Still long hair and waist
However, I am already a bucket waist ~
Still remember the year I came to Singapore
Everything, I feel novel
It turns out that the car here is driving on the left
It turns out that eating gum will break the law
It turns out that the car always lets pedestrians pass first
everything, it is so nervous
That year, although renting a house is only 500
buy a cup of sweet Talk milk tea is only 1 SGD
At that time, there was no KOI and Heytea ~
Life, but I still lived very nervous
I was still studying at that time
spent my parents' money, always calculating the exchange rate of 1:5
Save for frugality I don't want to buy anything
To save money, I rented a room without air conditioning
slept until midnight and was always awakened by the heat
Finally it was cooler in the rainy season
Result, it was rainy and thunder
I thought who would blow the building
Language problem, miss home
cannot be integrated, weather, etc.
In short, there are many discomforts
Later, I used to group This Chinese

found a group of good friends
and friends I met in my hometown
The Chinese here comes from
23 provinces

Finally, they even gave up their green card
Go back to their hometown to be filial
used to send friends back to China to visit relatives at the airport
what they said was waiting for you to come back
Don't forget to bring spicy duck necks!
This time, he will never come back once he leaves
I said nothing...
On this small island in Singapore
On Changi Airport There are many passersby
In the moment of wiping my body
You can't know the reason why these people left
For example, he, just like me
We are just ordinary people working hard on the island
When we left, there was no Thousands of reasons
and extremely helpless
of course there is finally a relief....
Years, like a thief
stole us laughing and scolding
slaughtering time
I looked at the wrinkles on the corners of my friend's face
It turns out that we have left the best youth
on this island
forever, and can't take it away!
Send away old friend for many years

million times, I stood at the intersection of choice
also hesitated and shaken

still guarding Singapore
witnessing the prosperity together
also guarding the streets we slipped through together
guarding the library
guarding the east coast together
guarding the east coast when we were young

Hours at the time of the opening, and guarded the Universal Studios, where you lined up together,
