Aside from planning for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, my October also involved other more spontaneous acts of CAS regarding creativity and activity. As usual, I treat cooking as my de-stress activity. On a school night, with a friend coming over to chat/work on college apps, I offered to cook some noodles for dinner. Missing the […]

2020 oct. – Breast Cancer Awareness Month! :)
October is the annual BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH! For the past few years, I personally think that the events have been too performative and not informative enough. This year, I got the opportunity to organize the events myself. In order to make the activities more interactive, we organized a voting box activity, in which students […]
2020 sep. – steps into zero waste life
Since my products are still on their way, my first step into pursuing a zero plastic life is starting with switching up the containers.

2020 sep. – restarting bullet journaling
As you may remember, I made an attempt to organize my life via Google sheets back in February. It became a habit for a while until I found an alternative called Asana. After reflecting upon my working habit, I realized I have more flexibility when I do not assign a specific time frame for each […]
2020 aug. – “zero waste” life: not as easy as it sounds
[RESEARCH STAGE] As a family who goes grocery-shopping on the weekends, it is inevitable to use plastic bags. But…is it all that necessary?

The creativity also lies in the plating, where different elements must harmonize on the same plate, without colors being […]
2020 july. – working it out!
Over the summer, despite my packed schedule, there were not necessarily “assignments” at night. After I got off work around 9-10 pm, I decided to work out at night to keep myself active. In the past, I have tried out Emi Wong’s workout on Youtube. Surprisingly, I feel more energized after working out and sweating. Exercising […]
2020 june. – starting project borderless
Upon an unexpected invite, I stumbled upon the opportunity to start an initiative with my friend. Taking baby steps, we brainstormed ideas on how we will prompt dialogues on gender issues in Taiwan. The project was found on the grounds of “gender equality” remaining a stigmatized topic to discuss in Taiwan. In this initiative, we […]
2020 may. – welcome to the roaring 20s!
“In light of the coronavirus, we are sorry to inform you that this event has been canceled…” Are you tired of hearing and reading this line over and over again? Because same. But worry not, because our senior prom is not getting affected by this! The Roaring Twenties, the prom that seniors had long-anticipated, is […]

Per usual, Z Club sets up a fundraiser on the side. What was different this time around was the improvised painting station set up for sale. With paintbrushes, watercolor, and a few stacks […]
