While I am no art expert, I decided to start this series of my favourite artists with Wu Guan Zhong 吴冠中 because I felt the connection to his paintings the first time I saw them in Singapore. Perhaps it is that mix of western and chinese influence that captivates me, or that the simplicty ofContinue reading “Favourite Artist Series: Wu Guan Zhong 吳冠中”

Wistful & Romantic
It’s the newest thing that you publish on Instastory – the Spotify “Your 2021 in review”! It’s always fun to look at an overview of the year, and guess what, this year I have been “wistful” and “romantic”. So… I didn’t know what “wistful” means and had to check the dictionary. Oh, it means toContinue reading “Wistful & Romantic”
Ways to save money this Christmas
Christmas is my favourite time of year – winding down that busy year, meeting up with friends, exchanging presents… it’s also the time of the year that I spend so much on gifts, decorations and Christmas food! Before you continue reading this article, I want to reiterate that you don’t actually have a “net profit”Continue reading “Ways to save money this Christmas”
VTL – Singapore to South Korea (Seoul)
Ever since I posted my first instastory that I have arrived in Seoul on 17 November, I have been bombarded with many messages on VTL (Vaccinated Travel Lanes) and PCR tests – even though some of my friends are not visiting Seoul but other countries? LOL i’m not ICA! Here’s a short list of whatContinue reading “VTL – Singapore to South Korea (Seoul)”
Taking a breather at Lower Seletar Reservoir Park
For the past few days I have been wanting to visit Lower Seletar Reservoir Park. Where’s that you ask? Simply put, it’s the scenic route from Yio Chu Kang to Khatib not to be confused with Upper Seletar Reservoir that is nearer to Mandai. It’s not that near to Khatib MRT so if you’re goingContinue reading “Taking a breather at Lower Seletar Reservoir Park”
What playing competitive sports taught me
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.” Watching competitive sports always spurs something in me. Once upon a time I actually thought that it was a waste of time playing any sport recreationally. Why put in so much effort in something to doContinue reading “What playing competitive sports taught me”
What I thought life would be
Looking at the On This Day pictures brought back many memories. 13 years ago I was hanging out with the gang at Dempsey. 11 years ago I was spending summer in Hong Kong. 10 years ago I was lamenting on how I had no more friends in school since everyone had graduated the past semester.Continue reading “What I thought life would be”
Life
Even when I was young I was really paranoid. When I was ten, my parents brought my whole family on a cruise. Before going on that trip, I wrote a letter to my loved ones, in case I don’t make it back. It was to my family, my best friends at that time, and thankfullyContinue reading “Life”
Hello 2021
2021 is the start of new beginnings. For me, it’s the start of a new job, which probably means the start of many new things. Getting to know new people, new work routes, new lunch places. Something that I brought over from New Year’s Eve though is my newfound old interest of reading. In recentContinue reading “Hello 2021”
A letter to my kiddos, probably the first of many
Dear M&M, Year 2020 is revealing itself to be a chaotic year. When you ‘google’ (hopefully still a term for ‘search’) this year, you will see lots of negative news like the worldwide pandemic called COVID-19, the sudden passing of many well-known people, and it has also been a personal struggle for your mommy meContinue reading “A letter to my kiddos, probably the first of many”
