                    <description>We thought it would be fitting if we spent our last weekend in Asia doing something relaxing so we scheduled a resort trip to Bintan Indonesia. To cut down on costs we spent Friday night in Singapore and then woke up at 6 AM to catch an 8 AM ferry to Bintan. It was SO nice to not have to fly. The ferry ride was a little under an hour and then we were in paradiseWe stayed at Nirwana Resort Hot</description>

                    <description>The AmCham interns went on a tour of the United States Embassy last Tuesday.  Pretty cool.  The building is imposing and a little frightening on the outside.  The inside just looks like an office building.  We got a short briefing from several employees and I learned a lot about the foreign servicean interesting career but a little too much jumping from place to place for me.

                    <description>Lack of sleep in Cambodia made for a boring start to the week.  I spent Monday and Tuesday evening lounging around the apartment.  On Wednesday Kirsten and I ventured to Chinatown for dinner.  The whole place smelled like durian.  Lots of cheap shopping there though  Wednesday night brought more fun when I was invited to a private party at a VIP lounge in Singapore to celebrate the graduation o</description>

                    <description>Cambodia may be one of the coolest places I have ever been.We arrived in Siem Reap Cambodia in the early evening on Friday. As we drove through the second largest city in Cambodia on a tuktuk I realized that it wasnt much of a city at all. Siem Reap has a small town feel. Cars are few and far betweenthe streets are scattered with motorbikes and tuktuks. Palm trees flooded rice fields a</description>

Wednesday of last week was the 4th of July yayyy. I was hoping that AmCham would give us the day off in celebration of American Independence but alas they did not. Worked all of Wednesday and didnt celebrate the 4th at night. Believe it or no</description>

Barbecues American flags a guy dressed up as Uncle Samwhat more could you ask for We ate dinner at the fair but didnt stick around for the fireworks. Instead we met a friend at a small restaurant called the Prince of Wales on Boat Quay. The friend of our friend was playing a show there that night. Boat Quay is</description>

                    <description>Finished with week three of work My supervisor was gone all week for meeting in the U.S. so my workload was relatively light. The biggest challenge of the week was setting up a meeting between AmCham Directors and the Myanmar Embassy go figure. I called so many times that I have their phone number memorized. We didnt have a Wednesday Yale event this week so one of my cointerns Melissa t</description>

                    <description>On Monday I found the most convenient bakery near my office. They have a ton of unique pastries that are super cheap and delicious. Its likely that Ill become a frequent visitor there. So far Ive had a chocolate croissant and some weird chewy Japanese cookie things. On the same day I also discovered an Asian version of Nutella that has banana cream in it along with the chocolate. Absolu</description>

The Myanmar forum brought together political social and business leaders from Singapore to listen to presentations by various Myanmar panels.

                    <description>So it should be pretty obvious by now that the blogging every day thing is not going to happen. First and foremost major props to all adults who work fulltime jobs. I work 9 AM to 6 PM every day and I swear it is so tiring I mean dont get me wrong late nights of problems sets at Yale can be rough too but theres all that fun and social interaction breaking up the monotony.

                    <description>Well enough fun and games. Today was the first day of work at AmCham Woke up put on my office attire walked to the bus stop felt like a real grownup. The office is on the 23rdfloor of a complex on Orchard Road. There are about twelve full time employees at AmCham Singapore which is surprising considering that the organization lists over 700 members on its website. Im working as a governme</description>

                    <description>Today began with an orientation meeting with Rayyan an 09 Yale alum from Bangladesh who is now a permanent resident of Singapore.  After talking logistics the entire group went out to lunch. So far the majority of my dining here has been in food courts which are good options when you are part of a large group.  The food courts are filled with an array of local cuisinesMalay Indian Thai</description>

                    <description>David and I headed into central city around 1 today.  We met up with my roommate Kirsten and then began to explore the city of shopping malls that is Orchard Road.  According to David Singaporeans work eat and shop. After today I believe it.  Each shopping mall is at least six stories tall probably close to ten if you count the four or five levels that extend underground.  And what39s b</description>
