Week 11

Week 11 was a great week. Work went well this week and I enjoyed spending time with my team.  I am slowly getting more responsibility in the office which is making me feel like I am making a greater impact.  This feeling of contribution drives me to work harder as I feel the work means something, as such I am enjoying this increased responsibility. The highlight of the week though was our long weekend.  March 31st marked the end of Ramadan, a day which is called Harri Raya.  Harri Raya marks the end of fasting and is celebrated as a […]

Working Week 2 This week, I kept trekking along on my big campaign, and my Canva skills have seriously improved. One of my favorite parts of my workday is our daily intern lunch at the Hawker Center.

Week 11: Marina Bay Sands, Sentosa, and a Client Meeting.

Today marks the end of my second week in Singapore. I can finally say that I have fallen into a nice routine. Going to work, eating at hawker centers, and going to a gym within a super mall all seem like regular parts of my day. Although I am falling into a rhythm, this week was still special because of the interesting and fun activities me and my friends decided to do. Before I talk about the things I did after work, I will first talk about the interesting things I did at work. Lately, I’ve been diving into market […]

Flowers and Culture in the Lion City 🌸🦁🏙️

This week has been such a happy and fulfilling one for me! I finally resumed my internship program and reunited with my friends who had arrived in Singapore earlier. While waiting for them to finish work, I had lunch at Wisma Atria’s food court, and it was amazing. I ordered noodles with fish dumplings and pork, and the moment I tasted the broth, I was instantly hit with nostalgia. It reminded me of the times I visited Singapore with my family. I also tried the famous Singapore coffee and ordered it just like the locals: “Can I have one Kopi […]

Week 11 in Bali! – John Rodgers

Another week in Singapore has passed! This week, I have been preparing for a busy work week. The team is working on onboarding a new software, and I have been very involved. We are looking to onboard it by the end of next week, so there has been a lot of work going into data validation. It’s been fun getting to know my coworkers and working with them; they try to give me a lot of responsibility, which I appreciate. I also went to the giant mall next to our hotel for the first time, it took me two weeks […]
