I have now come a long way since my first day of the anxious and doubtful attempt at the audition; having been accepted as a member, I could not be more proud and further confident in my abilities as a singer and a team member of this very singing group. Recently, we have been performing […]
Reflective Conversation 3 – Extended Essay
Having finally ended the Extended Essay, I can proudly say that I do not regret choosing my topic. My passion for folk music and fiddling has only been further fuelled by interest and understanding its history. Throughout my EE, I felt that I did really well regarding the historical context and the exploring the surface […]
HS Bersama Reflection 1
Absolutely bemused… I made it into Bersama! Going into auditions, I thought that I was not technically gifted with singing, additionally I have never taken a lesson before. But I decided that I would try my best and sing with emotion and empathize with my song. When I heard that I was chosen as the […]
HS Football Team 19&U B Boys – Reflection 2
It is now the half-term break, looking back at the first half of the football season. It has been very hectic and busy. Having only won one game of all the games we have played so far, to say I’m disappointed would be an understatement. There are glimpses of moments where the team play together […]
Interim Reflection from RC2

However, my structure was not well done because of a few misunderstandings in concepts, for example putting musical structure points into another criteria like […]

Today I spend my last day at Eurofragance with a sense of joy and regret. Ultimately deciding to shorten my internship here, seeing that I have only been spending 10% of my time here learning about the art of fragrances, and that my interest did not align. As such, I decided to better spend my […]
Summer Internship at Eurofragrance
So far I have come to better understand how companies like Eurofragrance work, as a fragrance house like Estee Lauder; who play a big role in dictating the trends and demands of the perfumery market and others like cosmetics. I learnt a lot about the objectives of Eurofragrance, that even though they are a smaller […]
Project Week – India, Jaipur Reflection 2
Day 1 was over, and day 2 loomed ahead of us. Menacing and aggressive, as if we were thrown into the middle of the ocean – a fear of the unknown. And to make matters worst, the day before, Grisham, a member of our group fell and got a slight ankle injury, meaning that he […]
