106 days ago [5th May 2008], Sze Ying, Terence, Evelyn, Kyla and I left Singapore and our journey to the States began. Yin Mun, Quen Seng, Ee Venn and Daryl sent me off at the airport, even though we already made a trip there the previous day to send Rachel and An Yi off.. Thanks darlings! Really appreciate it :)

We took 4 flights in total - from Singapore to Taiwan, then to San Francisco, and finally Bozeman. We even had to spend a night at the San Francisco airport! We arrived the next morning and spent our first day getting our administrative work done. We were all working at Old Faithful Inn, but I was the only one who worked as a server assistant. I had a pumpkin-coloured uniform and I had to tie up my hair for work - I looked like I was back in secondary school all over again!

First I stayed with Kyla & Evelyn in room 234 at Laurel. We even had a walk-in closet! But I preferred the layout of a double room instead of a triple room so I ended up moving into room 104 with Sze Ying when there were empty rooms available. It was fun because Terence & Kai Lun were our neighbours on the left and Dawn & Louise were our neighbours on the right! :D

The highlight of my first week in Yellowstone was definitely the snow. Never did get the chance to see snow prior to this. I love the fresh layers of snow, but I hate it when it turns to slush. Or when there's dirt all over the snow and it ends up looking like (as what Kai Lun would say) McDonald's Oreo McFlurry. It must have been quite a sight to see how thrilled we were to be playing in the snow.. Cold as it was, we still threw snowballs at each other and made snow angels!

And so, that was a little on my first week in Yellowstone.. Will write about my second week when I'm done with my assignments!
