Death by paper cut. August 5, 2012} re-defining the all-rounder. It is espoused in school, that the recipient of the all-rounder award goes to the student who is excellent in. Academic subjects, extra/co-curricular activities, and takes up conspicuous leadership roles. yes, there will always be this one or two market-spoilers in each cohort that raises the bar higher and higher each year, making the rest of us feel less inspired and more inadequate.

Parks in the West and East of Singapore | death by paper cut
https://steelwool.wordpress.com/2014/09/07/parks-in-the-west-east-of-singapore
Death by paper cut. September 7, 2014} Parks in the West and East of Singapore. Within a day, I visited two green spaces that are as vastly different as the East is from the West. In fact literally, Chinese and Japanese Gardens is located in the far west of Singapore and Pasir Ris Park in the far East. And not NParks, there is still some effort in putting up sign-boards informing visitors more about the fauna that has made Chinese and Japanese Gardens a home. Views from the 7-storey Pagoda. On the other ...

However the sea and other islands of heritage beyond the shores of the sunny island are often neglected. Sentosa doesn’t really count in this context. For the current list of islands. I managed to have a closer look at two such land masses and learn a lot more about the past and present islands of Singapore through three ways. Firstly, by visiting the Pulau Balik exhibition. Because Ju...

Biodiversity at MacRitchie Forest Trials | death by paper cut
https://steelwool.wordpress.com/2014/07/02/biodiversity-at-macritchie-reservoir-park
Death by paper cut. July 2, 2014} Biodiversity at MacRitchie Forest Trials. In most Singaporean students’ lexicon, MacRitchie is synonymous with the Cross Country. I did it both in secondary school and JC and did put my best foot forward, trudging through the treks towards the promise of unadulterated, thick and chilled milo straight from the milo van. Even the condensation on the green milo paper cups looked thirst-quenching. It was at a slow walk through the short Venus Loop. Led by Chloe Tan. For us t...

The 1st Week, The 1st Mother’s Day | death by paper cut
https://steelwool.wordpress.com/2015/05/10/the-1st-week-the-1st-mothers-day
Death by paper cut. May 10, 2015} The 1st Week, The 1st Mother’s Day. We understood what that meant. We were to observe the situation for one week and highly likely arrange for the early delivery between 2 May to 9 May. It all hung in a balance – on the one hand it was important for the baby to develop as much as possible in the womb, but on the other hand time was running out because the placenta was shutting down.
