It is the same place that I collected my graduation gown for the graduation ceremony. So we went there, wearing formal and all, and the service was fast, good and efficient. We prepped ourselves,...

The things I miss most about school.
While graduation was officially over just last week, I completed school a couple of months back, after my completion of my FYP poster presentation. That was officially the last day that I needed to go back school for any formal assignments or lessons. After that, it was a blur. I had to prepare to continue... Continue Reading →

It was a success, even though we planned a little late and did not manage to reserve the ideal chalet, we still had a lot of fun and the turn-out was good. Slightly more than 20 people came for the chalet and it was a good turnout, since we predicted and bought food for... Continue Reading →

Writing is therapeutic
It helps me to keep me sane, in times like this. Especially when I need to gather my thoughts, pick up the pieces where I have left off, and chart my course into the future. A better future. Hopefully. It's been a week since I officially ORD. I have been doing well, so far. Nothing... Continue Reading →

Aveda rosemary mint shampoo

The haze strikes again in Singapore. Now, worse than ever.
It all started in the beginning of the week. The air smelled smokey, like someone threw a huge barbecue party and it followed you wherever you go. Then, then the haze thickens. Before you know it, the PSI levels were off the charts. It was so bad, that the PSI levels broke the previous record... Continue Reading →
