Nostalgia. That was the first word that popped into my mind after the long, tiring day. I can still recall how I created the club two years ago, clueless about its future. On November 28th, 2020, Charity Art Club (hereafter CAC) went on a fundraiser event at the Mega Mall plaza in Sanduo Shopping District. […]

2020 aug. – procrastinating with…art? (cas reflection)
It has been a while since I have touched art. And, to be honest, I do feel reminiscent of it. On one school day night, I decided to embark on a new journey all of a sudden, to sketch out what was on my mind–no matter how absurd or how unacceptable it may seem to […]
2020 june. – reflecting the year
Throughout Year 1, I found myself immersed in CAS experiences more naturally and happily. After my second interview with my CAS coordinator, I realized how CAS involvement shouldn’t be forced. Even though it is a compulsory component of the IB, I believe that voluntary involvement is always the key to fulfilling and enjoying CAS experiences. […]
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 […]
2020 apr. – CAS-ing here and there
April has been quite a weird month…ever since we came back from spring break, soccer was canceled, digital days almost began again, school work and test started piling up… With that, I ended my short soccer season with agony. However, I was grateful that I got to practice with my friends on our own over […]
2020 mar. – dumplings!
On our family day (aka quality time with my mom), we decided to make dumplings. Besides actually making dumplings, I got inspired to create a how-to about it. This spontaneous act of CAS turned into something more meaningful to me as I decided to create a guide to making dumplings. As someone who shares a […]
2020 feb. – adding some colors to work
As digital days ended, I was lacking the motivation to catch up with school work. I realized that I was missing a system of my own where I can organize my to-dos. With that goal in mind, I decided that it’s time to finally create a digital timetable for myself. As much as I enjoy […]
2019 mid dec. – coming to an end // stmun xi
December 14th to 15th. The two days that I have been anticipating since late March when I took the role as one of the leaders of the planning team of STMUN XI. The end of the conference honestly marked a bittersweet end to so many things–late nights dealing with google sheets, replying emails, drafting speeches, […]
End of Semester CAS Reflection
My first semester of CAS experiences was, really, mostly carried out spontaneously. The first half of my junior year is comprised of MUN experiences, namely Southern Taiwan Model United Nations (STMUN) but also The Hague International Model United Nations (THIMUN) in Singapore. Nonetheless, I tried my best to be engaged in a variety of CAS […]
2019 end nov. – becoming a lawyer?
Thanksgiving is around the corner…That means it is THIMUN Singapore season! Unlike my past experiences, I decided to step out of my comfort zone this year—-attending a MUN conference as an advocate in an international court, which essentially makes me a lawyer. THIMUN Singapore, per usual, was hosted at Hwa Chong Institution this year, from […]
