In less than 2 hours, I'll be receiving a text from NUS with the results for my final semester here. I started out this space with an intention of updating about life and university reflections back when I was....17/18? Now that I'm turning 23 and leaving university, its a bittersweet feeling to cope with amidst the Covid-19 crisis. The transition to adulthood is never easy, and I had high hopes of...

mini round-up of 1st Year in NUS/CAPT

Y1S1 2016/17 Reflections

My first semester in NUS has officially ended, with me typing this on the last day I'm living in my room, in CAPT for this sem. It has been a rollercoaster ride this sem, with too many things happening that eventually overwhelmed me, and I've realised that I have so much space for personal development, so much more to learn and to achieve. Since it's a free...
