Sunday, August 14, 2016. Here's an attempt to write some creative non-fiction in Japanese because I can't sleep HAHAHA. If it goes well, I might submit it for publication on the school's multilingual magazine =X. あの日、晴れだった。チャイムが響ていた。 帰ろうう?うん、待ってて。 学校を出て、すぐ紅葉が見えた。初めて秋を経験したあの子にとって、すごく感動的な景色だった。 と聞いた後、あ!そうしよう!と、あの子が返事した。 あ、もう遠くへ走っていた。ついて行かなくちゃ。 気持ちいいなぁ、と、あの子が思った。走るときにこんなにいい気持が出せるって、なんか不思議な。 Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Holding On: February 2015
http://holding-on-to-the-past.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. It's been a while. I'm writing this near the end of my recess week of my fourth semester at Yale-NUS. It's 3.13am and I have no real reason for being awake at this ungodly hour, other than the fact that I might be subconsciously stressed out from the lack of productivity this week. I think sophomore year thus far has been extremely eye-opening. It's breathless, really, because so many things happen. Haven't I done exactly the same thing by heading to Hong Kong, a place I have a...

So thank you Mr Lee. I may not have personally experienced Singapore's transformation under your rule, but know that I really appreciate it all the same. May you rest in peace.

Holding On: February 2014
http://holding-on-to-the-past.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 19, 2014. Attended a non-fiction workshop today and had to write based on the prompt "I remember.". This is what I wrote! I remember the first time I took the bus on my own. I was twelve then. The fact that I came from a family with a comfortable income and overprotective parents meant that I was chauffeured from place to place without having to worry about catching the bus or losing my way - until then. It took a lot more trips on the bus before I became used to sitting with stranger...

Holding On: Junior Year Reflections
http://holding-on-to-the-past.blogspot.com/2016/05/junior-year-reflections.html
Friday, May 6, 2016. And with that, junior year has come to an end. エディンバラでのんびりしていた。でもここの生活は死ぬほど大変だった。I can't think of a word in English to describe the stark difference in lifestyles I led in Edinburgh, and in Singapore over the last semester. Both were marked with reflection. But where one was pleasant, appreciative, another was intense, stressful, self-doubting. That's what Singaporeans dissatisfied with Singapore complain about. I guess there is truth to the statement after all.

Friday, September 30, 2016. They say that death comes like a thief. Usually I would think of it as something that i meant to refer to death coming when you are least expecting it. But just as how there's this wave of emotions that comes when one discovers that one has been robbed, death certainly brings about many many little ripples to the people around the one who has passed on. God will provide. And one can only trust in His goodness. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Holding On: Nostalgia
http://holding-on-to-the-past.blogspot.com/2015/11/nostalgia.html
Wednesday, November 18, 2015. Was rereading all my old posts for fun and this wave of nostalgia came over me. Coincidentally, an old friend whom I haven't met in 5 years changed her facebook name, and then I got reminded of the fact that I'm actually now on the same continent as her. Today, I decided to skip all my classes. It's pretty strange. I don't really know what to think of this. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Semester Abroad in Scotland! Picture Window theme.
