Pt. 2 Goodbye Orchid Boulevard, Hello Cyclamen Corner: Adventures in Israel
Hello again! Welcome back! I have returned with part 2 of my Israel travel blog. If you haven't read Part 1, take a step back and start on that! I've been really into white rose tea lately! Add peach syrup to it and you've got a treat! Grab a drink that you've tried recently, find yourself a nice corner of a cafe and let's get started. In part one I mainly talked about architecture and famous religious sites so let's switch it up a bit and talk about the people and culture! J

Pt. 1 Goodbye Orchid Boulevard, Hello Cyclamen Corner: Adventures in Israel
Hello loves! It has been a while since I last updated but I am back. So grab a cup of coffee (or tea ;)) join me at one of the little tables at the cobblestone road of Orchid Boulevard and boy do I have a story for you. So I had just finished my final final of my last semester of my freshman year. Your girl did it!! Now it's finally time to run across a beach, straight into the dramatic sunset of summer break. Right? Wrong. Suuummeeerrr Classeeesss Begin! One would think that

MLK Jr. Day at Santa Monica Pier
In a college student's life, there are 4 things that give us, sleep-deprived, caffeine-addicted individuals enough hope to break a smile. 1. Class Cancellations
2. Deadline Extensions
3. Free food of any sort (As long as it is not from the Caf)
4. LONG WEEKENDS!!! This week we were gifted with a long weekend delivered by none other than Martin Luther King Jr himself, kinda. As I mentioned above, I am a college student and I am one who stays on campus. College students who

Hellooo, it has been a while since I updated. For those of you who did not read my last post (Wish Bones, Rabbit Feet & Four Leaf Clovers) I have moved from Singapore, my home of 17 years, to LA for college. I have finished my orientation week and I am in the middle of my first week of classes. SoI was originally planning to just write a regular post, updating you guys on the events and happenings that I had since I last wrote. But then I thought, why would any of you be inte

The Garden filled with the Aroma of Coffee in the middle of a bustling city: Arriate Cafe in Hongdae
Cafe's, I think of it as rightfully overrated, slightly more affordable brunch stores. But with a lot more coffee, finger food and good vibes. This summer, I had the chance to stop at Seoul on my way to LA for a week-long holiday before I started school. I was also given the privilege to plan my families itinerary while we were there. Cute, Instagrammable cafe's were a consistent feature on my list of must-go. On my list, Arriate Cafe held the strong placing of the Number 1 M

Wish Bones, Rabbit Feet & Four Leaf Clovers
New beginning, New Me? Scratch that, a chance to recreate me. Have you ever thought to yourself "If I knew this earlier I wouldn't have done blank.” Self-realisation has a most annoying habit of only showing up after the crime has been committed. A change of heart comes with the heavy baggage of reputation established by an embarrassing or even shameful past. Regardless of race, language or religion, everyone has wished for a second chance to erase all memory of a scarring mi
