it’s in Michigan!!! and no, it’s not Ann Arbor k :)

Spring Arbor itself is a township of over 7,500 residents (that’s really little) and there are various other townships nearby. sounds like a out of nowhere place right? well yeah, it is actually. not really seeing myself having as much wild fun as i had back when i was in KL. but i’m REALLY looking forward to the travelling i’ll DEFINITELY be doing!
Miss Ng! we’ll meet in L.A. as promised!!
David Lin! try not to drown when we do meet up halfway in the middle of the Great Lakes haha.

super detailed!

Spring Arbor University was established in 1873 as a seminary of the Free Methodist Church and it later became a high school, followed by a junior college, then a college and finally a university on April 30 2001.
so maybe u could kinda say that this SAU is still kinda young as a university, 8 years niaaaa.
there’s only a 1% rate of asian students in SAU lol. but hey, i’m not complaining, confident in making friends :)

in SAU there’s…

i get a good feel whenever i think abt this uni and i really hope with what God has in planned for me, that i may grow further in my education, social maturity, relationship affirmation, as well as my spiritual maturity.
the university itself also emphasizes on your individual spiritual growth thru chapel services and their CORE program (developed specifically into the curriculum to produce lifelong growth personally and spiritually)
