Here’s my graduation picture, as promised! I look quite strange. Apparently, the fuzzy white line represents the University of Toronto and the black stripe below represents that I will graduate with a Bachelors of Arts or Science. (Arts, in my case) I’ve been swamped with essay deadlines from now until 9th April. So, I will…
Technically, it’s not belated since it’s supposed to last 15 days. Last night, I went to the Singapore Malaysia Association of Ontario’s Chinese New Year dinner party.

There was a huge leafy vegetable on his take-out bento and this is how the conversation proceeded: BF: Moo…! I’m grazing. 私は神戸ビーフです。(I am kobe beef.) ME: What kinda cow refers to himself as…
My latest toilet companion, Blink by Malcolm Gladwell, told me that a person’s room can reflect part of their personality and mental health – like their anal retentiveness (woot! more toilet allusions!) and self-confidence. In light of that, I immediately went to clean my room. Not that it was messy to begin with but it…
