A green campus

Today, I visited my alma mater, the National University of Singapore, for lunch with a long-time friend. As I walked through the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, I was pleased to see that the expansive greenery that I had fallen in love with when I was a student from 2005 to 2009 is mostly still around.

These trees must be decades old!

Walking down Kent Ridge Drive.

I lived on campus for four years, and weekends during the school holidays were my favourite time - the campus would be largely deserted, and I could go for long walks in peace.
