SHENTONISTA

“A hidden talent I have is that I can dislocate my shoulder on purpose. I discovered that by accident while dancing.”

“My childhood pastime was cycling around in the neighbourhood and looking for push-cart food stalls—this tells my age!”

“One thing I wish I had more time to do is meditate—it helps me find peace among the chaos.”

Matching red and green doesn’t mean you have to look like a walking Christmas card—pair darker shades for a subdued, but no less bold look.

“People have found this surprising but my favourite thing about Singapore is the weather; I love the heat.”

“Something people have told me they find strange about me is that I love massaging or rubbing my bruises. Most people hate it, but I really enjoy the sensation for some weird reason.”

“Maybe everything that people know about me is only what I choose to present. I’m an open person; I have nothing to hide.”

“If I could travel into the future and ask myself a question, it would be, ’How have you made a positive impact in at least one person’s life that didn’t benefit yourself?’”

“If I could time travel, I’d love to visit the Belle Époque Paris at the end of the 1800s, just so I could hang out with Picasso.”

“After coming back from vacation, I take an extra day off at home just to settle back into the groove. I find it helps, especially after longer trips.”
