The last 5 minutes could not be recorded. This is what we talked about what: An ethical dilemma I faced was doing service during Project Week. I worked with a kindergarten in Thailand for 3 days and this made me realise that this short term service we were doing could do more damage than […]
Kolkata GC Final Reflection
I think the highlight of my time with Kolkata GC was definitely planning and finally executing Kahaani. While planning Kahaani, we all had different roles to play, but seeing everything come together at the end like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, it was truly satisfying. I remember one of my challenges was working with the […]
Student Voice 2018/19
This year I joined Student Voice to represent my mentor class. Although I only initially joined because my friends were all doing it as well, I soon realised what an important role we play in terms of being the bridge between students and teachers. We’ve helped to facilitate things such as the forum where over […]

MINDs Tampines Final Reflection
Reflecting back on my last session working with clients from MINDs Tampines, I realised that I have learnt a lot. Mostly, I learnt about the student’s and my own attitude towards service. After a few weeks of doing the service, it began to feel very repetitive and mundane. After reflecting, I realised that this was […]
Viva Voce Reflection
The biggest challenge I faced was gathering primary data as I worried that the restaurant managers wouldn’t want to be interviewed. At the start it seemed like it would be easier to get someone else to help interview the restaurant managers as I was scared to do it, however, I decided that it was important to […]
Kahaani 2018/2019 (Initial + Final)
Initial post: This is my third and last year joining Kahaani. For the previous two years I was involved in Kolkata GC, so I had worked on the planning of the performance, however this year I am not part of the GC. I think not being in the GC but still part of the show […]
CultuRama 2018 (initial + final)
Initial post: This is going to be the last CultuRama I am involved in ever, so that makes me kind of sad but also extremely excited to make this one the best one yet. The downside to this year’s CultuRama is that we are only allowed to be in one dance, so I had to […]
Post project week reflection
Project week was not only an extremely fun experience I got to share with my friends, but it was also a week where I was able to go out of my comfort zone and learn many new things. I took on new challenges, for example rock climbing. Before this trip, I always had the preconception […]
Interim Reflective Conversation
Gathering secondary research was relatively easy as the majority of the information I needed was published online by the Singaporean Government. However, it was much more difficult to collect primary data. A big challenge I faced was actually being brave enough to interview the restaurant managers as I was afraid that they would not want […]
