I began writing this post at the end of 2024 and suddenly, we’re in the middle of January 2025! As it happens, it is also the 10th anniversary of Wording Art! I can’t believe I have upkept this blog for the last ~10 years~ and it has seen me through so many of my art and life adventures!
2024 was so topsy-turvy I honestly haven’t really put my mind to reflecting on what I have achieved or experienced this year. To celebrate the end of 2024, new beginnings, and 10 years of Wording Art, I should acknowledge my major milestone of 2024, which was completing my PhD in art history!
I have shared at different points about my experience pursuing a PhD at NTU Singapore. It’s funny how time flies and I graduated in July 2024. Yet with all of the strange feels of post-submission, post-defence, and post-graduation, and moving on to a new chapter in life, it felt like I needed more time to finally share about being PhDone.
