On perspective and people
So..it has been a while since I finished poly. I'll be honest in admitting that they were not the most memorable years of my life and there isn't much that I'll miss terribly..but poly years were certainly the most eventful.
But I think the most memorable thing about these past 3 years was my internship..the sort of perspective it has provided me is amazing..it has introduced me to my calling - something that I thought I had given up on during my second year at NP - Journalism.
The New Paper is the best thing that happened to me in Singapore - it made me meet some people I will always remember, it gave me my first byline, it made me receive my first journalism award, it taught me some hardcore journalism lessons and most of all it reminded me that wherever I am...writing will always remain my first love and people with depth and stories will always intrigue me...
Sometimes...we can get all that we truly want - we just need a bit of courage, some luck and the foresight on where to look.
