| Chief Editor: Low Jia Wei |
As the first male Chief Editor (breaking gender barriers yay!), I hope I haven’t bitten off more than I can chew this time round for the study trip. I must say I’m working with a very talented group of editors this year who have been stellar in their duties. Having had an extremely positive experience with last year’s visit to Saigon, I’m in high hopes that this year’s trip will be a great one as well.
Now if you would indulge me for a minute…
Not to be outdone by last year’s more “creative” personal bio, this year I present to you, a limerick:
I’m quite a fan of hats
And strange, peculiar cats
I like to make puns
No not, ‘Make buns’
Now, to end with a rhyme… Oh drat!

| Lee Jun-Elle My name is Lee Jun-Elle. I am a city girl curious and craving for ‘the other side’, I am suspicious of know-it-alls, and am genuinely friendly though my face cooperates poorly with my good intentions. As Lady Gaga so profoundly put it, baby, I was born this way. I am passionate about art and attempt it on canvas, on a microphone, and on paper. I like watching psychological thrillers, reading stories about morally confused characters, and burying my head in graphic novels. My body enjoys a good workout at the gym and up hills, so I hope that this exercise around Bangkok and Buriram will stimulate my bones, my blood, and my brains. Oh, and my belly, too. |

I am a pessimist-and-realist-at-most-times-but-turns-optimist-in-times-of-desperation who positions himself at odd ends – written more than a hundred pieces of mostly Romantic and naturalistic poems but doesn’t quite fancy Keats or Milton. I am a lover of psychological thrillers, crime material and an aficionado to Mariah Carey’s glass breaking whistle register. I’m constantly looking out for a Shangri-La and excellent butter cookies (though still searching). I’ve never ceased to look beyond the present but drive myself miserable every single time by anticipating what is to come. Nevertheless, being a guy with a thousand flaws, I yearn for life-changing experiences that can be as simple as meeting a friend from another corner of the earth. I treasure little miracles like these and looking forward to the ‘In Search of’ Thailand’s hospitality and a true love…for culture-lah.

I love lizards – they’re almost all we have left of the awesome possum dinosaurs. On the downside, I hate socks. They’re like jail for feet. I spend most of my time happily up to my neck in tennis news, but when I’m not actively dreading Roger Federer’s impending retirement or gushing over the way his Nike Dri-Fit Polo hangs on his shoulders, I’m usually looking at people’s fingers, because I think the human hand is a shockingly marvelous piece of machinery. Phoebe Buffay from Friends is a personal hero of mine, and I would totally date someone like Ross. I also loveCalvin and Hobbes and Kurt Vonnegut. Talents of mine include knocking things over, becoming overexcited, and getting into arguments with Leena.
