New Notebooks
I have been using the Five Star spiral notebooks (sheet size: 8-1/2″ x 11″) for over a week now and I’m loving it. The paper is lightweight but the quality is good. Ink doesn’t bleed through the paper even when I use my Tombow brush pens and Pilot drawing pens. — read more

Swedex Exam
Sometime in August this year, I mentioned my plan to sit for the A2 certification by Swedex a year from now (in 2018). Well, there’s been a slight change of plan—I’ll be sitting for it in a few days’ time on 19 December! My rather last minute exam application to the Folkuniversitetet in Jönköping, Sweden… — read more

Losing My Duolingo Streak
It happened a few days ago. I repaired my streak but lost it again after a day because for some reasons even I couldn’t quite understand, I just overlooked signing on to Duolingo. So, bye-bye 76-day streak and hello, #reset. — read more
