  • The Gateway to Asia – Singapore

    The word ‘exchange’ has been prohibited in my household for almost 2 years. Finally, I managed to convince my family that it would be my last opportunity to stay abroad before starting my daily 9 to 5 job. To be fair, it did sound very daunting to my conservative Asian family – 4 months away…

  • My first 28 days in Singapore…

    It’s been 28 days since I landed in Singapore, and also 28 days since I last had a coffee. If you’re a black coffee drinker, don’t panic (but sorry if like me, you like nice fresh milk in your coffee!! 😐). But all jokes aside, Singapore has been amazing so far. Even in this first…

  • BYE FOR NOW,SYDNEY & HELLO, SINGAPORE

    About a year ago, after I finished my first semester at UTS, I started to question myself what do I want to do before I graduate. I realise I want more than just passing all my subjects and getting a certificate after three years. So, the word ‘exchange’ pops into my mind, as I believe…

    Sitting in my humidly stuffed dorm on a Saturday afternoon, it’s been one of those days where finals are coming up, and yet I am still contemplating whether to start studying or not.

  • Singaporean Student Life!

    Greetings from Singapore! It’s been almost 3 months since I first landed in Singapore in January and the time has simply just flown by! It’s sad to think that I only have about 2 months left in this wonderful country, but you’re not here to hear about my woeful tales, so I’m going to give…

  • Casual Singlish – First Impressions

    When another country starts becoming a home away from home, then just maybe, you’ve made the right choice. Starting early January and finishing mid April, there are no breaks on this education train. This will be a mini-guide to NTU (2k17).

  • NTU & Singapore

    I have spent almost 2 months here in Singapore now and this far it’s been nothing but great! I’ve made really good friends from all over the world and explored what Singapore has to offer as well as come to enjoy my classes at NTU. The city of Singapore is a mix between east and…

  • Singapore Spring 2015

    Singapore Exchange Blog Hello! This blog will briefly cover my first month here in Singapore. I will focus on my initial arrival, living conditions, and what I’ve managed to go and do all in this first month. I arrived in Singapore on a Sunday night, staying in a hostel as it was outside of the…
