It has been rather unsettling after all that has happened, but I am inclined to finish what had already been set into motion. Also, it is always nice to put avoidable issues to rest. As a result, I am trying to appreciate the sights and sounds of the city in the best way I knowContinue reading “City Snaps: Back in the City September 2021”

City Snaps: Brief Encounters April 2021
A selection of photos I didn’t get to send to my Dad. He would have loved them. Nothing much I care to document digitally, but it’s mostly all I think about these days.
City Snaps: Spring in the City March 2021
New beginnings this March in an unfamiliar city. I’ve been here a couple of times before, but I’ve never been fond of many things. This is an opportunity to learn, both about the area and the part of me that has been partial to London in the past.
How is it already November?
Reading back old entries has made me laugh loudly in the stillness of my room here in Singapore. I want to say that nothing has changed the past couple of months, with small projects and literally, questioning the smallness of our lives. However, an argument has to be made regarding potential chain reactions that isContinue reading “How is it already November?”
Still at Home – August 2020
It’s August, and we are no longer in quarantine (aka circuit breaker.)
What Day Is It Again?
Apparently it is June, or so they say. May came and went, but I hardly noticed (save for scribbling tally marks on the wall in the lavatory.) It has been approximately 75 days since what I could consider a near sentencing, but really, who’s counting? Some ominous music cue 2001 is perfect for this melodramaticContinue reading “What Day Is It Again?”
April 2020 Thoughts
Or Is This Real Life or Is This Just Covid-19? Lately, I’ve been feeling sluggish and losing direction in life. It’s funny how life throws you a curveball and everything comes to a standstill. It’s certainly hard to imagine living frivolously through a difficult time such as this one when the realities and fragility ofContinue reading “April 2020 Thoughts”
March 2020 – A New Beginning
Finally, an updated website for a new lease on life this March. I was feeling restless for a couple of days, and forgot about a to-do list I wrote down back in December that was filled with things I wanted to do but was “too busy” to do it while I was working 15 hourContinue reading “March 2020 – A New Beginning”
City Snaps: London August 2019 (Part ii)
London is particularly beautiful towards the end of summer – some sunshine even with cloudy days, which really remind me of Magritte’s paintings. There were so many terrific exhibitions going on, and I ended up with museum fatigue close to the fifth or sixth day but I powered through. Exhibition FOMO must exist outside ofContinue reading “City Snaps: London August 2019 (Part ii)”
City Snaps: London August 2019 (Part i)
I’ve been to the Barbican a couple of times now (typically for concerts or art shows), but I’ve never forked out the time to go for an architecture tour till this time round. The docents were knowledgeable and brought us to places that were closed off to the public. We even got to see theContinue reading “City Snaps: London August 2019 (Part i)”
