Hi, my name is Alga and I am not a drug-addict. I have recently just turned 23. I am currently a third year Engineering student at a local university in Singapore. I was born and raised in Indonesia until I was fifteen when I my parents decided to send me here for a better education.

I am pretty much like any other girls/women you see on the streets, except that sometimes when I am around certain groups of people, my behavior becomes completely out of the world. Imagine chicken dance as I am crossing the road? Ooh yeah, I’ve crossed that off my Things To Do Before I Die list. Another thing about me is that I don’t particularly enjoy shopping. I shop like how men do. I don’t compare prices, if I am looking for a pair of shoes, I get into a store, try on the first pair I touch, it fits, I proceed to the cashier. Hell, I am more interested in that two-scoops of Gelato at Market Street than a gorgeous dress.

I am a huge, huge food-lover. My boyfriend can testify to this fact. He always tells me that he likes to feed me because when I am presented with good food, my eyes light up as if I have just been given a cheque with nine zeros following a number. And in USD, not Rupiah. That’s how much I love food. My favorite food would be, this is difficult but if I really have to choose, Sushi. Oooh, I can eat sushi all day everyday, and finish off every morsels of Salmon Sashimi that’s delivered to me. Too bad, my wallet doesn’t really get a long well with Sushi.

In case you are wondering why I am introducing myself in the middle of a two-year-old blog, I am currently embarking on this 30Days Get To Know Me project. Honestly though, my main purpose of doing this is so that this blog won’t go dead like the rest of its’ predecessors and I have a topic to write about because nothing calms me like writing does.

So, here I go.
