About Me


Hi everyone! I'm Sivani. Welcome to my blog, Lion City Days. I'm from a small town in Tamil Nadu, India. I did my under graduation at PSG Tech, Coimbatore. Now I am in Singapore to do my Post graduation in design. It’s been nearly 10 months since I've come to Singapore. For the first few months I was quite lonely, but I enjoyed the quiet. Now my life is rocking, not a minute alone. Too many friends you see.

Do you wonder how it happened? It’s very simple, actually nothing about me changed every since I came here. I adapted to this environment. As I started doing it, life turned out pretty good. I actually didn’t make any sacrifices, didn’t lie, and the best part is I didn’t try to act like someone I'm not. I am a very simple person, who doesn’t have much interest in clubbing, high heels and revealing clothes. On the contrary, I love to going for mid night walks, watch the sky with all its twinkling stars, listen to romantic songs with the volume really loud and get drenched in the rains.

I've learned one thing in life, never expect anyone or anything to be the way you want. Just live each and every moment fully, everyone’s life is gifted by GOD, it's just that not too may people bother to open their gifts.

Let me tell you about my blog. I am trying to update all the good and adventurous days that I'm enjoying in Singapore. I will really appreciate your comments and would love to hear about your adventures too. So let's make this blog our place to paint all our good memories and capture moments we experience everyday.

Cheers…

Hi anonymous,
Yes you're right, the fee structure is considerably lesser than other places. The system is great and the best part is, you can get degrees of international colleges. You can check out the website www.singaporeedu.gov.sg. This will give you all the information you require. Besides this if you need anything else, do let me know. I will try and help you for sure. :)
