I've been on the road for 5 months now with only a 33l backpack. And you know what? Not only I threw away quite some stuff since I left, but I actually feel like I still carry too much stuff. It's impressive how little one needs! And you can always buy stuff if you find out you forgot something! But for no laptop? That will be tough. What if you want to watch a movie, or listen to some music that is not on your iPhone, or or... ? Forget it, you'll probably be fine. But I have a hard time whenever I go more than 2 days without. Singapore is indeed super expensive. One place I highly recommend is this: http://www.icare2share.com/2007/10/indian-restaurant-singapore-annalakshmi.html . Not only they have awesome Indian food (that you can find all over SG), but you choose how much you want to pay for it! Literally, you ask for the bill, they ask you how much you want to pay, then they bring you the bill with the amount you requested. Another thing to check out is http://hackerspace.sg/ . I know you're on vacation, but it's always good to hang out with some like-minded people. And that's a pretty nice place to hang out. Enjoy! Good idea to take small backpacks!

But when you have a goal in mind learning comes much easier and it's much more exciting to learn, you have focus, versus just learning for the sake of learning. Well, he learns that.

However, what does one do when he *doesn't* already know to make websites or other software(enough to get admitted to infoeducatie) - when he only has the basic Pascal knowledge taught in the 9th grade?

Figure out how to get to http://infoeducatie.ro and work hard to get there. You will learn a lot from trying to get there. I have some advice for your high school friend too.

I'm not much one and I'm very happy with a pair of cheap Skullcandy 50/50. They're cheap (I think I paid less than £20 on Amazon), discreet and have much better sound quality than the stock headphones. I can also recommend http://www.headphone.com/ for a knowledgable shop.
