  1. The descent

    We’re SO close to the end now!! This semester’s passed by very quickly, but that’s usually how I feel once something is over, so maybe that’s my relief speaking. I’ve almost made it through my 2000-word essay grind, too, and, once again, my relief is piping up!! What the end of this semester AND the […]

  2. Smith’s crinkle cut chips

    So I’m sitting in my room, listening to some angry guitars noise because there really isn’t a lot to do right now.  Honestly, what the hell was going on the in 70s and why did it stop.  See tonight’s listening for a fat riff, yodelling, whistling and a flute solo because, prog rock. Doing group […]

  3. Look out

    I’m really not sure why I was regarding mid-semester break as a holiday last week, and in the many weeks preceding. I was in that mindset until Tuesday, three days ago, when I realised that I actually DO actually have 4400 words to write by the 30th, and a presentation to prepare for, and my […]

  4. Coming Home

    Lectures, Orientation Week, and student theatre – it’s was all online. It’s like the whole world took a massive Swot Vac and we had to learn the basics again. Everything was transported online, and almost overnight our same-same lives became very different. Studying at my new virtual learning hub – The University of Melbourne, feels […]

  5. Check In Time! #2

    9:37pm, Singapore. It’s recess week! Hopefully, that means more time to relax and catch my breath. Somehow, it took me really long to get down to writing this post. Maybe being frequently distracted by Youtube and Tiktok played a part, but another reason is due to me not knowing what to blog about. Ever since […]

  6. 🌞 Furniture oil and drip paintings 🌞

    So, um, it’s October now.  Time flies when you’re having fun? Nihilism aside, I have to be honest, quarantine hasn’t been complete trash.  And you know I actually have had fun the past couple of days – furniture oil and drip paintings.  It’s kind of funny, I don’t feel very different or that much has […]

  7. Spring has sprung

    Historically, I’ve associated September with sunshine, flowers and school holidays, though now, my conceptualisation has shifted to snow (!!!!), showers (from the sky, but also of the conventional kind) and NO BREAK OF ANY KIND. I’m really hanging out for mid-semester break, so that I can complete the 150 pages from W7 and -8 that […]

  8. Good book recommendations???

    Yes, yes, I know that there are already 8 books sitting next to my bed waiting to be read BUT *whispers* I want another one. So I’ve been reading this big old book for a while, and this is not to say I didn’t love it, but it took me a long time and I need […]

  9. Check-In Time! #1

    11:06pm, Singapore. I have just spent the past 5 minutes watching an ant crawl on my room wall… what a great use of my time. As a Singaporean, I would frequently complain how hot the weather is due to our tropical climate. These few days, it seems to be raining non-stop. Can’t understand why, but […]

  10. Mid term Madness

    It’s week 6 and the craziest one so far. Assignments are due but that’s not a problem for me. What’s giving me panic attacks is I have no background in some subjects and am learning everything right from the programming language it is written in, to the actual stuff they talk about in the lectures, […]
