Hi there! I’m Samantha,

and this space encompasses my personal milestones made beautiful in His time. Combining my flair for easy-to-read writing and my love for photography, here you'll find me sharing the thing I'm most passionate about - travel, food, fashion and my conversations with God.

*P.S when God was blessing others with the gift of height, He left me out realizing that great things come in tiny packages, so instead I am gifted with endless energy and a big wide smile to get through difficult times.

Forever & always, a child of God. Through this cozy little virtual haven, I hope each post inspires at least someone out there with my life stories.

Are you planning your next event?

There’s always something for everyone at Temptations Cakes, let us celebrate your next special event (be it a birthday party, baby's first month, wedding, christmas, you name it!) and create lovely memories with you.

Campus (X) Venture

The day started with us meeting at Toa Payoh for my church's amazing race event - Campus (X) Venture.

It's amazing race style, whereby teams of max 10 people have to travel to all 5 polys & Simei ITE to complete 1 task, respectively.

My team's strategy was to C-A-B! Of course, we took public transport initially BUT we realised it's gonna take v long, so THE logic behind cabbing was IF we win, then we just use the cashprize to reimburse the cab fare lor. Make sense right! *I feel so smart!*


Early Morning, 10am.

This memory game is really tough, kinda... required brain juices and killing of some brain cells to remember which steps to step on.

Here comes the sweetest deal of all!
Faith's parents came down to fetch all 10 of us to the finishing point, which was our starting point the meeting place, Toa Payoh. So nice of her parents to do so man!!! Thanks Dear Girl! (:

& guess who's her Dad?
Such a small world...

Mr. Yee!

227683_10150191754174473_566459472_6920462_5982912_n
This man ran for General Elections 2011, contesting area Joo Chiat.
My area! Such a small world right? Cause I see his posters around my house area during the elections period + the other day my parents were just mentioning him - My dad shoke his hands, etc.

PROGrammers in Red!

We won S$600 in cash! Minus cab fares (BASKET, hahaha ALOT SIA!) we left some sum of money still. Went to Bugis, Seoul Garden to HAVE A FEAST. The whole day we didn't eat, yes we skipped lunch sorta cause we were on a race! So this seoul garden was really a huge treat to us!
