Pass
Just another thing that’s been on my mind - I realised that, if I were to face the loss of a life, or just the loss of something that means too much to me, I don’t think I’d be able to deal with it.
Let’s face it - I’ve never had to deal with the passing of anyone close before (touchwood). With the exception of my paternal granddad when I was four, when I probably...
In retrospect
These days I find myself battling with logic and opinion (when I’m not with my books) - on whether my point of view certain things is valid, calculated, and justified, or if they’re just merely a shallow generalisation of issues I think I know when I don’t. It’s not so much of being reduced to the likes of the rest of the people around me who admit it, follow the opinion of...

Exam Woes: Part 3.2
I can’t quite believe I’m finishing my third year - my friends are graduating (I feel like I am as well), I’ve only one semester left and I’ll soon be facing the perils of the working world.
Not so worried about that actually, I’m more worried about not being worried that I’m not studying my ass off like I did since I came back from exchange when exams are...

All I really want now is
1. for my throat and ears to stop hurting and stop being blocked
2. for this endless mound of work to disappear
3. to start traveling again
4. to stop short-changing myself
mmhmm
Well, because I always believe that if you really wanted to do it, you’d always find a reason to. Just like how you’d always find an excuse if you didn’t want to.

Show us how you chose to simplify your life this week. Unplug, unclutter, donate unneeded goods, etc.
Packing my files. S’bout time I got organised for the exams again. And clearing my workload! The first time I feel like I’m on top of things midway through a semester my entire university life.

One Eye Closed.
Because if I started being as picky, I’d start losing all my friends.
Just so all of you know, I forgive but I don’t forget. Keep that in mind when you’re doing your shiz.

Do one good thing for a stranger. Make their day.
Does giving a whole packet of tissue to a lady whose son’s water bottle leaked in her bag to dry up count?

How you interpret this week’s moment is up to you - all we ask is when something fails you try again.
This moment might have been a little overdue, but I believe it’s always better late than never. This Tuesday marks my second (or third) attempt at something I though I wanted - and then I think I didn’t - and I still don’t know if I do now. What I do know is that getting...

Take on small step to get to where you want to be, be it eliminating a bad habit from your daily routine. Or making a change to reach a goal. Keep it up and the rest will come naturally.
Recently, I realised I don’t actually have many chances left at making what’s left of my university life memorable. This realisation might have come too late - I’ve had too much useless fun, the...

It’s time to act, to learn and grow - to find yourself and figure out where it is you want to go. Regroup, refocus and share it with us.
Maybe I’ve been so mindlessly drawn into the glamourous banking career that I couldn’t accept the fact that it was something I was only going to be mediocre in. S’bout time I go back to the start and think about what I’m even here...
