Life is Too Short
“I was smiling yesterday, I am smiling today and I will smile tomorrow. Simply because life is too short to cry for anything.” ~ Santosh Kalwar
Indeed, life is too short and not only that, it is filled with surprises, both good and bad. Everyone should learn how to live today as if it was their last. You really never know what lies ahead.

SMU SIS Interview
Yesterday was my first ever interview in a very long time. My last interview was held in school back during my secondary 2 days. It was for entering the integrated programme in the following year.
