Vietiane Day 48. I'm living someone else's dream.

Well, not really. I met Fred at a birthday party. A Parisian who landed in VTE one week after me. He saw a picture of Marina Bay Sands' infinity pool once and fell in love with the country, without having visited it. Fred's goal right now is to live in Singapore. He envied me living there for 7 years with permanent resident status. He said I'm living his dream. Except that he doesn't want to be a woman. 
I remembered feeling the same thing as Fred 7 years ago. Stuck in a city that didn't seem to get me far. Moving was my goal and Singapore seemed to be the most viable option. Enrollment in NTU started it all.   
Talking to Fred reminded me of that. Good luck to him. He said he'll look for me when he arrives in SIN city.
The scene that made up Fred's goal.
