Iwent back to Singapore for the Lunar New Year with the intention of catching up with friends and loved ones, and did just that. So if you’re wondering why I was on hiatus (on top of my already busy schedule), it wasn’t because I got depressed or got into some sort of trouble. It’s because I was having fun stuffing my face with pineapple tarts.

I wish my life were more dramatic. (Not really)

Anyway, I was out collecting stories, listening to people, playing a journalist if you will.

Now, I am not a sentimental writer. I’m simply not a person who likes to write something emotional and personal then having some sort of “moral of the story” sort of lesson at the end of it.

But I think this would be one of the first few articles that might hit a bit close to the heart, because it is something that genuinely makes me sad and I think we should all reflect on it.
