About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live life, love life.

ABOUT ME

"I'm entirely made up of flaws, stitched together with kind intentions."

A small (I am really small), young girl with gigantic dreams, who embraces human's kindness. Full combination of music, art and literature together with weird taste for classic stuffs.

I am open to sharing on everything and anything about myself, but I'm a social awkward when I have to write something about myself. I call myself a non-typical Singaporean girl because I spent about half of my growing up years travelling and living abroad. However, I know ALL about my home ground and I love her.

Friends call me an introvert at public events but an extrovert at cozy-small gatherings. I prefer smaller groups and am quite cool with just anybody who wants to hang. Also, I spend more time listening than talking; observing than talking too. So, talking is probably my last priority most of the time.

PHILOSOPHY

"Being challenged in life is inevitable. Being defeated is optional."

Interests

I have diverse interests and hobbies.Mostly surrounding music and art. I love watching classic old plays and sometimes, dancing to swaggy hip-hop beats. I sing pop, but spend majority of my time listening to country, jazz and blues.

I read a lot, from Shakespeare's Classics to modern titles and even biographies. Sometimes, I prefer drawing to express the words. And there are also times, when I prefer sweating it out in the rink. I indulge in sports like badminton, swimming, muay thai and yoga. Born an inquisitive learner, I never stop learning about everything.

Just an extremist in the making or optimistically, a hobby-ist.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am immensely in love with classic old musicals like "Sound of music" , "Les Miserable" to modern pieces "Burlesque". Then I let myself daze and listen to Chet Baker and Josh Turner alongside with my favourite book of all-time "Tuesdays with Morrie".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sponsoring two kids from Ethiopia and Thailand as my 18th and 19th birthday gift to myself!

Teach, Learn, Share

Having Singapore as my home ground gave me a multi-lingual advantage, so guess I can do the essential translations along your journey in Singapore. Also, I know exactly the best things of my beautiful country.

Half the time, I'm outside of Singapore. So, I look forward to meet all the beautiful people while I'm travelling. Hopefully, equipping you with the relevant information should Singapore be your next stop.

On top of that, I will really like to hear your stories and experiences. I share, but I prefer listening.
