Hello from New York!! September 9, 2010

After months and months of unexcusable silence, I have finally gotten my act together and am putting down the words that have been circling around in my head on paper! As my title reads, I have made my big move to New York – all 10,000 miles of it! I have a shoebox I can [...]

Stockholm Syndrome May 28, 2010

Yesterday marked my last day of work at B. After 5 long years, it really feels like the end of an era. I have gone from a wide-eyed clueless fresh grad to a jaded corporate zombie to a renewedly wide-eyed MBA student. After months of counting down to this very day, excitedly looking forward to [...]

On a Muse high! February 4, 2010

Lately Singapore has become a hot spot for bands and we have been lucky enough to catch some pretty awesome acts live – Coldplay, Oasis, Greenday, Yeah yeah yeah and now… MUSE, which I went to watch last night. They were the headlining act in a night with 3 acts playing – Saosin, Rise against [...]

This is confusion, am I confusing you? January 27, 2010

So I am trying to figure out my life plan over the next few months. The initial plan was to travel. Spain and possibly parts of SEA. But lately another idea got planted into my head.

Hello 2010! January 18, 2010

Of years gone and years to come.. December 28, 2009

No year is the same, but at the end of each year the one constant feeling I have is that the year flew by too soon! 2009 really flew by! It was a year of growing up, self-discovery, travel, forging of new friendships, renewal of old friendships, new hobbies (blogging, rock climbing), renewed enthusiasm for [...]

Weekend Getaways! November 9, 2009

The avalanche of budget airlines and Singapore’s proximity to some of the regions most beautiful places makes me a happy trooper! I’ve recently made a fair few weekend trips all with airfares under 200 SGD (USD 135). The beautiful islands of Langkawi, the daunting Mount Kinabalu, gorgeous Lombok and Gili Islands, Chennai, Hong Kong, Bali.. [...]

When Singlish can get you into trouble.. October 26, 2009

Recently I was reading some articles/ letters in the local newspapers about Singlish and its “merits” and how we should all just embrace it. Fair enough. If that’s the Singaporean slang, why try to squish our “culture”? But when is it acceptable to use slangs, and when speaking to whom? The boss-lady was telling me about a [...]

Oh how true! October 23, 2009

I am truly a geek and I in particular love this article/ interview. It is so true and it gives me hope and confidence, in all honesty. Strange eh. Yea well, I am a strange person.
