Somehow, Life always sends you to funny places.
The Journalism certificate course is over. It was a flash of courage, a sure decision, and a moment of trial. It was the first time I've felt a passion for school. In all, it was a blast.
In four days time I will begin a new phase in my job: one that will take me closer to my goal of working in National Geographic. I have ever been sure of anything more in my life. I have never been less ready for anything.
This little break I took before work, I spent working a few small jobs - waitress at a wine bar in Holland V, concert promotion for Sprout, sales rep for Salt. These jobs are so different, but they have made me grow so much.

AUSTRALIA.
It's been so long since I posted. I feel a little rusty and my fingers feel stiff. it' been a good break so far, filled with meaning and new experiences.
I finally made time to volunteer at ACRES. it's been on my list for so long that I thought I would never find time for it. Well, I finally did, and boy, it was awesome. It feels good to campaign for what you believe with like-minded people. You feel more accomplished as a person, and you make new friends. what's not to like. (UPDATE: been volunteering with them a couple more times, saving up to go on a trip with them! it's great how they really care about animals that we treat for granted in Singapore.)
hmm Australia. So many things to say about this small peek down under. Specifically, mousing around Brisbane and Gold Coast. I have met some of the most wonderful people there. It's on my bucket list now, to go back.
I met up with HK there, and he took me out for a cup of the most wonderful hot chocolate I have ever drank. San Churro, a famous place to locals and tourists alike. We had a different flavor each, mine was mint, his was spiced chilli. Maybe it was the place, maybe it was the time, but that moment was heavenly. He came over from Melbourne. We talked. And I was happy we did.
Maybe I haven't traveled enough yet, because the sunset at Gold Coast was one of the most beautiful things I have watched in my short life. Next to the one in Thailand. They will never top the one in Changi.
♥ I'VE GOT HEAVEN ON THE INSIDE OF ME.
peace and joy God has set me free.
