It was a cheesy thing that we did, but here’s to old times’ sake.
Here’s a re-dedication too. To our moms on this Mothers’ Day.

Mist

While it may be said that the camera doesn’t lie, the framing and interpretation of reality lies very much with the photographer and the viewer.
This is right outside our flat. My street’s not actually this quiet. Not a street, in fact, but a road, and a major road at that. It takes a bit of [...]

Commemoration Day 2007

Graduation is such a joyous occasion – even though I did not attend as a graduand, I felt truly happy for my friends who were graduating. So many years of hard work… and finally the day has come. With everybody together in the house, families and all, it’s difficult not to feel the excitement. My [...]

The girls have taken over

This feels so odd. The guys have all left for HK. It’s only girls left in the house now – four of us. Squealing and screaming, fending off girlish antics. It’s almost like being back in an all-girls dormitory! A rare occurrence, given that Imperial has the highest male:female ratio in any British university.

A nomad's life

From Prince’s Gardens to Emperor’s Gate, to Queen’s Gate, and soon… Lancaster Gate. Gosh, too many gates. No more royalty though. Hmm, should’ve looked for a Princess’ Villa when we went househunting.
At least now we’ve got a flat. ‘Twas too close a shave. Yesterday was horrible. Felt backstabbed; the holding deposit was for nought! [...]

Overwrought

This househunting race is such a dirty game.

The hunt continues

These days, we’ve been popping in and out of estates offices and collecting catalogues of properties for let, shaking agents’ hands and nodding our heads smiling at how well-kept a particular apartment looks.
“Hmm, we’ll need some time,” we politely tell a lettings negotiator as she asks if we’re keen on placing an offer. And when [...]

MHouse-hunting

Looong time no bloggy…
We’ve started house-hunting. Almost a full month left before we’re booted outta this flat where we’ve lived for so long. At least, it’s where I’ve lived for the longest period of time while out of Singapore. Everything’s gonna be so messy so soon – where to move our stuff to, who’s staying, [...]
