Singapore and the quirky Asia!: NUS Campus & the fabulous UTown!

NUS campus, is nothing that you could ever find in Finland. And University Town, is another thing that will take your breath away. It's like a self-sufficient city, with free shuttle buses taking you to your classes from faculty to faculty, with various food courts that suit the tastes of numerous cultures around here. Anyway, I'll mainly just put pictures of NUS campuses and UTown here for your reference, as you must come and experience the campus for yourself, to really get the hang of it:)

One thing that is worth noting is that you should have a printed version of the campus map prior to your trip. This would save you from a lot of navigation troubles that you will bump into in the beginning of the semester. Especially when you need to run around to find the faculty, and beg them to get you in a course during/after the Add/Drop period.

Some words about facilities provided by NUS would also be useful for you. So you are free to use any gyms/ swimming pools/computer rooms (this is 24/7) on campus since you have to pay for the facilities already before you are in NUS, using your student card. Printing is, unfortunately not free, but it's not hyper expensive either:) If you print/ photocopy at the Central Library, it'll cost you 4 cents (SGD) / A4 black-and-white page, at UTown PC & Macs Commons would be 5 cents. You can use your EZ-Link card (the travel card basically) to pay for the printing at the work station, there are designated machines to handle that. I strongly suggest printing from the Central Library, not because it's slightly cheaper, but also because if there are some problems with the printer or your printing materials, they have staffs readily available there to help you out. I once got some problems with printing at UTown in the earlier week, and I had to call some ITcare to ask for help. And believe me, Singlish is not a very comprehensible language, especially via phones +.+

Okay,here comes the pictures^^
