This also marks my first visit to Little India. Yeah, took me 26 years to finally get here.

My takeaways:

  • I have always believed that people are friendly. You could say that it is a very naive way of thinking. But I still believe that, and yesterday just reinforced my belief.
  • I would suck as a professional photographer. Obviously the brief was to take photos which are quintessentially Little India. Look at my photos. LOL.
  • Also, the instructors, who are Nat Geo and Lonely Planet photographers, wanted to look at my photos midway to check on my progress. But I was feeling rather uninspired yesterday, so the photos I took were simply trash. And there's absolutely no way I am showing these photographers trash. Please, how many chances will I get (in life) to impress them? I would rather not show them anything, than to show them trash. They must have found my behaviour rather strange, being all wishy-washy and eventually floating away LOLx2
  • And lastly, I feel so immensely proud to be a Singaporean. Thank you, every single one whom I crossed path with, for the camaraderie we shared, despite our brief encounter. Thank you for making me feel so welcomed, thank you for helping, thank you for smiling.
