Today was the first day back at school, and I'm officially a senior. Seeing these words be typed out on the screen and processing this nugget of information still is so unbelievable. It seems like literally last week that it was my own DOC, but that was 2 years ago. Isn't that crazy?
My poly experience has honestly been amazing, and I'm so thankful for all the things I've learnt, academic-wise, and in other areas of life. And, I'm so happy I've made such good friends, and found the people I want to stay friends with for a long time to come.
I've decided to start blogging and actually maybe stick to this so that I can say I'm doing something right for once, and I will be posting weekly with life updates, rants, think pieces and whatever may come.
But, a summary of what has happened since my last post last October (oh God, I'm so bad at updating), was basically I went to my first USS Halloween Horror Nights, and I seriously shit my pants, but it was an amazingly fun night with the squad.
In November, I attended my lovely friend's Sweet 16 at ZOUK (yes, you read that right), and caught up with a lot of my juniors. It made me tear thinking about how I saw them blossom throughout the years from awkward teens to young ladies. I would have given a speech, but I would have been a sobbing mess on the floor, this is no exaggeration.
A few days later, I attended Sundown Festival with the full squad and it was so fun, we were just running around everywhere, listening to amazing music, and just chilling. I took a photo with a member from local hardcore band, Caracal, and he was sweaty as hell, but still cool.
December was an eventful month, with Christmas and whatnot. They had an absolutely stunning event at Gardens by the Bay, and we went there to take a look at the lights and revel in the Christmas spirit. A few days after that, we also went to the Louis Vuitton Series 3 exhibition at Marina Bay Sands, and it was almost a spiritual experience, not gonna lie.
I ended my 2015 with an absolute bash, because I went to see the New Years Eve fireworks for the first time in my life, with my favorite people, and it was honestly gorgeous, and I loved every moment of it.
2016 started off pretty good, to be honest. I went on a local field trip in January with Lianne, and we went around to museums with our CDS. It was the most aesthetically pleasing day of that entire month. Singapore is really stepping up their art scene, and I really appreciate and love that. Bree turned 19 and we made a hilarious video for him and we stuffed our faces with food at Swee Choon, and January ended like that.
I skipped a few days of school during the long Chinese New Year weekend and spent five days in Hokkaido, freezing my ass off in 5 degrees. It was my first time in Hokkaido and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I literally rode a snow mobile. I was alone on Valentines Day, but hey, we can't have everything, right?
March was an amazing month, because it was the beginning of my 2 month holiday. I spent a week in Korea in the most amazing winter-to-spring transition weather on a Global Perspectives school trip. But before that, we did celebrate Joy's big 20 at Zouk. The details will remain a secret (wink).

April was pretty dull, because most of my friends were overseas at staggered timings, or they were working, so we didn't hang out much at all, but now it's May, and I'm probably going to see them everyday in school because we have the same timetables.
That's basically everything that has been going on in my life right now, and I hope I will stick to my word this time and I'll be back next week with another post. Probably a rant, just saying.
Love,
Ber
