This is the place where I slept for the year 2005. Quite a big bed right?? :) I like this kind of size of bed. Big enough for me to roll here and there. And I got a company with me when I was there. Can you see the brown color thing on my bed? hehe... That's Brownie. The dog I brought there with me. I put Brownie in my hand luggage and brought there. Very comfortable to hug it in the night.
This kind of studio apartment is enough for me to have a great life in Italy. The view from the window is next door, planted with olive tree, a lot of roses, sometimes can see tomotoes plant, and rolls of different kind of vegetables, and can see the family of the house working in their garden when Spring started, until Summer, then Autumn. During Winter, hardly can see them around, cause mostly people will be in the house :)

I decorated this room with a lot of stuffs. Colleagues that came for 3months training were very surprised how my room can be so occupied. Just like our own room in our own house. I told them that I will be there for almost a year. I want everyday when I go back home from work, I want to have those kind of 'Going Home' feeling. That's why I decorated my room to be like a real permanent place that I will be staying.

And this place is called "Monza Park Residence". And my room was #208. I was known also as Ms 208 among my S'pore colleagues. Haha... For me, the number is really nice.

Due cento otto = 208

I had a great night yesterday, even until now I am still very happy.

Without any pressure, burden, stress, from anyone, any matter.

Do I look young at that time?? Haha...That was one year ago when I left to Italy. 8thJanuary2005
My parents didn't went to the airport with me, because I asked them no need to go. I can just take the taxi. And in fact, I afraid my tears will come out a lot if they go with me. :) But then, ah jie with the 3 kids, and ah li with his 'gf' went to the airport. Also CC and YikFong went to say good bye to me. So happy that so many people came.

In the first pic, the cute little girl is ah jie's youngest daughter. Very cute but also very naugthy. She is MiKi. I like to call her that way.

The second pic is taken when we want to take the shuttle bus from the plane to the platform, at Milan-Malpensa Airport. In fact, it's not allowed to take pic at that place. But, I made it very fast one. Hehe.. This airport is not the main airport, and also quite far from Mmilan center. There is another in the center called Linate Airport. And another one in Bergamo which most of the flight are budget flight and/or fly internally.
