I’m spending a week in Singapore . Family call.
It’s both frustrating and comforting to know that some things will never change. But anyways.
As a move to build a home somewhere else, or just trying to minimize junk, I’m doing a major overhaul to my room in Singapore. Or just a major hauling out of things. [...]

Not too long ago I’d always been excited about the growing number of my age. Sweet 16, forever 18, golden key 21. Then it stopped. I’m not excited about growing up anymore. It’s just not funny saying I’m forever 18 any longer. Before people start to classify me as belonging to the mid-twenties, here’s a [...]

There are so many people to thank for helping me keep my sanity intact through these trying college years. Don’t know if you all think this is too sappy of me though. Haha. Bear with me, for this is probably the first and the last.
First and foremost, I would like to extend my eternal gratitude [...]

I just sat for my final paper in university, possibly the very last one of my life. It was for my Shakespeare elective. Everyone left the exam room complaining about it, because the final mini-essay question was not in the text at all, nor did he give us any clue that he’d drop such a [...]

I said yes!
Will most probably start full-time employment in July. 
So I’m now a junior editor at an internet firm. My first job sounds great!
I do wonder if I took it on too early though. Hovering on the line between school and work hasn’t been all nerve-calming. The worst sacrifice has been my freedom to travel, [...]

Not a good day at work today. 
Disclosed things I wasn’t supposed to, which put the boss in an awkward position, which of course didn’t forbade well for my prepared negotiation speech.
Oh well. Will sleep over it.
Just wanted to share how MissY cooled us down from a stressful day at work with her sliced cucumbers. Probably [...]

These pictures were taken in various Singapore bus stops, early February 2009, with a Nokia N95 8GB.

What is common in these three public service messages from the Singapore Police Force and the National Crime Prevention Council? Apart from the usual offence of being very tacky (playing with alliterations, feminine rhymes and syllable rhyme [...]

Just shut my luggage.
Wondering if the mess in my room will be untouched for the rest of this year.
Heading to KL tomorrow morning for a mother-daughter thing (?!) before proceeding to Shanghai for what we all hope to be my last semester in that university. As to what happens after, your guess is as good [...]

Writing this at half-past three in the morning is automatically forgiven for sappiness, or fruitless whining.
1) It sucks that I can’t eat on trains and buses in Singapore. When I’m hungry and rushing off for an appointment, I have to choose between time and food, so I usually just go hungry. Which may have been [...]

I’ve (very) recently bought my very first DSLR, a Nikon D80. Then bought a what-I-think-is-good-and-can-afford portrait lens Nikkor 50mm F/1.8D which I also hope to use for food pics.
Still experimenting, but I think my friends love the pictures heh. So by extension, I think they love me. HAHA
I love my camera(s)!
Haii, what a fluffy post.
