As I’ve mentioned in a few of my previous blog posts, there’s a lot more to university life than just studying and exams. University societies are a big part of this. Dundee University Business Society (DUBS) decided to start the new year with a bang and arranged the trip of a life time to the […]
On November 17th I took a trip with the International Society up into the highlands of Scotland. It was worth every penny, and it would have been worth every penny if it had been twice the amount. To recap, we traveled with Nory from Heartland Travels (https://www.heartlandtravel.co.uk/) and it was absolutely fantastic. Our nights were […]
So now that we are in early November, it was time for another Singaporean meetup this time organised by the UKSSC (United Kingdom Singaporean Student Council) and supported by our very own Dundee University Singaporean Society (DUSG). The event was a great success and both societies received praises from so many different sources. All of […]
The first thing I did when I found out that I’ll be moving to Dundee was to make a list of all the places I could visit nearby. Scottish Highlands were one of them; right near the very top! This is my experience of travelling around the Isle of Skye over a weekend, and some things I’d do differently when I plan my next trip!
I recently took a trip with the photography society here at Dundee (DUPS) to Edinburgh – what a whirlwind. I think I saw more in two days than some people get to see in a lifetime of living in Edinburgh, but that just be because people who live in a place think they have all […]

It’s a rough life, being a blogger. Well. Not really, but it’s tough when the internet shuts down for 10 seconds and your entry is deleted. All 500 words of it.Regardless of how many times you pressed ‘save draft’. It’s been a time, guys. I have anxiety. Issues. Quickly, apparently, accumulating more. You can add […]
On my ongoing adventures throughout the UK, my next stop was Edinburgh. I have been to Edinburgh plenty of times before, but my main reason of going was because of the famous Fringe Festival that is currently running. The Fringe Festival is one of the largest arts and cultural festivals in the world that runs […]
Over the past 6 weeks while I have been interning at Life Sciences research labs, I have tried to make the most of my weekends and try to explore more of the UK. So, my next stop was London. I had never been to England before this, so naturally you can imagine how excited I […]
Have you ever been told that your accent changes depending on whom you are talking to? Do you dread that unavoidable, inevitable question “Where is home for you?” Are your closest friends from different parts of the world? Do you often find yourself singing to songs in languages you don’t necessarily understand, and certainly don’t […]
