MUSA DID WHAT #5: The One that Became Two
It hasn’t even been Week 3 and yet MUSA has already made some pretty heavy decisions, with some motions taking such a long time that our beloved General Secretary decided to split MSC #5 into two parts. Despite that, MSC#5.5 or I guess you’d call it MSC #5 Part 2 actually went on till 10pm!…
LGBTQ Corner: The Gift
“I have a gift for you.” I couldn’t quite tell if I was happy or scared. She refused to tell me what this gift that was chained and secured with the most sophisticated lock was as if it was caging a yet-to-be-known creature. Even I, the greatest locksmith of the heart, wasn’t able to crack…
LGBTQ Corner: Yes, sex is cool but…
I worry sometimes that I would never receive the love they write about in books, the one’s they make movies about, because everything I’ve ever seen has always revolved around the aspect of sex. Sex has been a topic rarely discussed in my neck of the woods, and when it was brought up, I found…
Hello, Future
“Hello, future.” The words echo into oblivion. The silence was loud and deafening, but I know someone, or something out there, is listening to me. “It was rather impolite of me, isn’t it? if i don’t offer you a greeting.” Again, no response. Fair enough. “I’m aware of my. . . lack of manners in…
Hello Future: Struggling
An anxious anecdote of mine. We all have big dreams and big thrills. Get all As Get into a good university Graduate with all HDs Get a good job, 5 figure salary and above only Marry before they call you an old maid Have a family I’m now 20 and I’ve just barely ticked off…

MUSA Did What #4: Sem 1 BEGONE!
Very much like Steven Grant in Moon Knight, I feel as if reaching Week 12 has been a definite out of body experience that has left me with more questions than answers (How did I get here?? When did I get here?? Why do I have 25 unread emails from lecturers??) Fortunately, as the final…
Favorite Crime: My favorite liar
I remember being the age when I could barely reach up to push the ninth-floor button of the elevator to my apartment, and only if I tip-toed and stretched my arm to the fullest. I remember that just around this age, I lied to my mother. I don’t quite recall what the lie was about…
Favorite Crime: August
The way a song near-perfectly encapsulates the exact sentiment or experience you’re going through at a moment in time. The way a song takes your heart and warmly cradles it, comforting you, while simultaneously breaking it apart, obliterating you. For me, that song was August by Taylor Swift. The parallels were unsettling and uncanny –…
Favorite Crime: Better
*Disclaimer: A toxic portrayal of love All the things I did, just so I could call you mine. At the end, it all boiled down to actions he could not take back. The severed friendships, the late night shouting matches with his mother, the mountain of debt accumulating in his bank account. There were other…
Favorite Crime: 5 Stages of Grief
They say there are five stages of grief. Stage 1: Denial I’m okay. No, I’m not I don’t miss you. I miss you so much that the mere mention of your name renders me powerless Why did it have to be you? I don’t know. There are so many things that, deep in my heart…
Favorite Crime: It’ll Be Okay
A short story inspired heavily by Shawn Mendes’s It’ll Be Okay. Are we gonna make it? The thought ran wildly through my mind. A slow decay, that’s the reality of us. Yes, life happens and it occasionally gets in the way. But I sensed it began with fewer texts, fewer calls, less of everything that…
