  • As part of the generation who watched Regular Show growing up, it amuses me the kind of random references dat get brought up every once in a while by my friends, and in the reels they send me. . The beauty of dat show lies in it’s absurdity, and how it completely contrasts wif its… Read more

  • { The North: Part 2 }

    Recently, there r 2 places here I’ve been thinking abt and find pretty amusing for some reason… First is Sembawang Park. U noe there’s only one bus service (882) dat goes there. And taking it brings u thru the most remote route ever, making u actly feel like ur being taken away from civilisation towards… Read more

  • { The North: Part 1 }

    Sometimes I think abt just how many of my friends live in the north. Becos just the other day I went to visit my friend living near Marsiling / Kranji. Very ulu / in the middle of nowhere, with nothing nearby but their neighbours, who they’ve never talked to. But it’s a landed property so… Read more

  • { Early Fixation #2 }

    One day, in the 🌈bizarre summer 💫 of like 2011, my brother came home wif a pack of bootleg Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Dat marked the beginning of our short-lived obsession wif the Yu-Gi-Oh trading card game. We played it, watched the anime, got excited abt the monsters, then buy more cards. The bootleg cards were dirt… Read more

  • { Indonesia }

    Our Singapore football team is set to play against Indonesia in a couple of months. Dis puts me in abit of a pickle, as my mother’s side is actly Indonesian. Not sure who I’ll be siding wif… . I have an interesting genetic makeup, where my dad’s side is half East Asian, and my mom… Read more

  • Today was the first time in like 3 weeks dat I woke up not feeling like death. Idk if it’s becos my REM cycle’s messed up, or if my body is stressed over all the abrupt changes in my life over the past weeks. But hopefully today marks a return to normalcy… somewhat… Anyways, the… Read more

  • { Chewsday innit: Part 1 }

    Tuesday morning means another day of teaching kindergarten kids fundamental movement skills. While I dun like getting up b4 7am for it, I absolutely love everything else abt it. Wats not to enjoy abt teaching kids to hop on “lilypads” (spot markers) to run away from the big “tiger” (me or the other coach) dats… Read more

  • { wait wat }

    Today I was feeling sad boi hours, and decided to rewatch One Week Friends (2017). . Something abt good Japanese dramas / movies is dat they aren’t always the best in terms of production value or quality, and the storylines tend to be pretty mid like, 90% of the time. But they compensate wif alot… Read more

  • { Out of Touch }

    Last week we had a practical exam on prescribing the right exercises for our “client” on the spot, based on their wants and needs (e.g. recent knee injury, lordosis, trying to jump higher, all those sorta things…) I’ll be honest and say dat was the least I had ever studied for an exam. Even though… Read more

  • { Fish Tank Neighbour }

    Sometimes the route I walk home requires me to pass by an aquarium shop. Dis unlocks certain interesting memories I have of fish tanks. . So a long time ago, in the days when Marina Bay Sands was still being constructed, my family used to have a fish tank. I dun rmb a whole lot… Read more
