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. The whole restaurant was packed with ‘aunties’ and ‘uncles’ – that’s what younger Singaporeans/Malaysians call middle-aged women and men. The whole room was speaking in Singlish/Manglish or what’s…

This is my last night in Montreal before I hop on a bumpy ride on the Greyhound back to Toronto. My boyfriend and I went to Old Montreal to check out Place Jacques Cartier. It’s absolutely gorgeous at night but my camera was too old and too crappy to capture even a fraction of its…
This is my second day at Montreal. My boyfriend and I went to Rockaberry Resto-Bar to have dessert. So I ordered a Mille Feuille. It’s French for “A Thousand Leaves’. It’s made out of sugar icing, cookie dough, nuts and tons of cream! Doesn’t it look yummy? But…. it was waaay too sweet for my…
