5 signs your co-worker has become your Work BFF

Leave a comment

To the corporate newbie, the working world can be a real jungle, with cryptic industrial terminology (“vertical” doesn’t mean up and down, right?) and the occasional office beast ready to snap you up for breakfast. Does your boss’s poker face hide a smouldering rage within, or is that creepy dude sitting across you the cause of those stains that appeared mysteriously on your chair after you took the day off? (read: temporary foot rest)

For the lucky few, we have our Work BFFS, people whom we love dearly and happen to work with (BuzzFeed, 2013). Here are 5 ways to tell your co-worker has become your Work BFF.

Hello 2014!

Happy New Year peeps! With 2013 behind us, I’m sure that everyone has had their fair share of firsts, laughs, ups and downs in the past 12 months. 😉 As for me, I’m just stoked that I made it through a tumultuous year in one piece, what with my graduation (finally!) and my first job. 😀

My 2013 ended with Virgin Australia Voyeur picking up my photo from Maison Ikkoku for their Insider’s Guide to Singapore. I’m pretty psyched that my work was considered good enough to be part of an actual publication and, well, it’s been a while since the thrill of seeing my photos published during my days as a news intern. 😛

Follow the Yellow Paneled Ceiling (Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences @ NUS)

Call me crazy for making that oh so dreaded Journey to the West, but there was no way I could stop myself after reading the umpteenth article about how places on this sunny island are constantly changing (no thanks to a relentless effort to drive our country to modernity).

Being the sentimental person that I am, I wanted nothing more than to snap an album full of pictures before it undergoes a complete face lift over the next decade.

My DIY Mortar Board

Leave a comment

If a wedding dress is the most important thing a gal can wear in her life, the second most important thing is probably her graduation gown. And with something as significant as this, you’d better be darn sure that you get the right stuff to complete the look and help you stand out from the crowd in whatever way you want.

But since you can’t exactly deck your entire robe in bling, or heaven forbid, modify it entirely, the next best option is to personalize your mortarboard with a little decoration. It also goes a long way in helping you find it back after throwing it into the air with your peers, so really, why not? 😉

Here’s a little DIY I did with mine!

It takes a little patience and creativity, but the wannabe artist in me enjoys creating and putting little designs together! 😀
