About Me

Hello hello! My name is Xue Ying and I am from sunny Singapore. I will be turning 26 in the coming October which still scares me! My body seems to age so much and so fast as the years past by. Paranoid much? Maybe!

I like baking, cooking, listening to music, pinterest-ing and of course, sending mails! I enjoy pilates through blogilates (Cassey is such an inspiration!) and does it on a daily basis.

I love travelling as well! My dream is to travel as many places as I can before I get too old and weak! Haha. Of course it's still a long way to go till I conquer the world but I have been to a handful of places: - Malaysia - Cambodia (Siem Reap area) - China (Cheng Du, Si Chuan areas) - Taiwan (Taipei, Taichung, Cingjing) - Japan (Kyushu, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka) - USA (North Carolina based, California, las Vegas, NYC, DC, Florida, Arizona) - Thailand (Bangkok) - Indoesia (Bali)

Food is my passion and the therapy for the soul. I love eggs, tofu and beancurd anything. I adore vegetables and fruits and my favourite protein is fish and yogurt. I love pastries, desserts and all things bakery/cafe. I normally go cray cray if I enter a bakery because I'll be wondering what I should try and most of the time end up not buying anything because there's too many I want to eat! I have a sweet tooth but I do not fancy caramel or marshmallow! It is wayyy too sweet!

I enjoy long walks and I don't like the colour pink. I don't have anything against it, I just am not the girly-girl, y'know? Black is my jam and my fashion sense is zero. Comfort is what I go for normally and yeap, they're black mostly.

I enjoy Netflix a lot! So I watched pretty much anything from Japanese anime like Jujutsu Kaisen, Fairytail and anything ghibli related; to American sitcoms like Brooklyn 99 and F.R.I.E.N.D.S; to reality shows like Masterchef, Sugar rush (lately found Baking Impossible and it's so good!); to series like Stranger Things or korean/japanese dramas. The list goes on! Movies wise, not so much, they just dont catch my attention as much. But Disney is major LOVE.

I am awkward and do not have the most friendliest face normally but I don't bite.

Favorite Music

I listen to songs of any languages as long as they have a good beat to it. Not a big fan of ballad though. Here are some of my favourite artistes:

  • Ed Sheeran
  • The Cab
  • Simple Plan
  • All Time Low
  • Daughtry etc.

If it ain't obvious enough, I like bands, or group singers. They sing out to be more!

I also listen to some korean pop and lots of taiwanese band Mayday and 831.

Favorite Books

I enjoy reading so it is really unfortunate that I read more in the past than I do now due to y'know work and adulthood. Some of my favourites are:

  • Night Circus (by Erin Morgenstern)
  • Miss P. Home for Peculiar Children series (by Ransom Riggs)
  • Wonder (by R. J. Palacio)
  • Mosquitoland (by David Arnold)
  • Room (by Emma Donoghue)
  • When Breath becomes Air (by Paul Kalanithi)
  • Holes (by Louis Sachar)
  • The Little Prince (by Saint-Exupéry, Antoine de)
  • A Monster Calls (by Patrick Ness)
  • Book of Lost Things (by John Connolly) etc.

Wishlist?

I don't really have a preference for what you guys want to send because I strongly believe in the thoughts that comes along with it rather than the things sent. You can refer to my profile above to know how a person I'm like and let your creative juices flow but if I really have to name a few things...

  1. Stationery. I am a sucker for these. I have two overflowing drawers of markers and pens, but every time I step into a bookstore, my hands get all itchy and I end up leaving with another 5/6 pieces of goods to add to my collection!

  2. I LOVE STICKERS. Oh god, I told my sister to cut my hands off if I were to buy another sticker set or sheet! TOO MANY TOO CUTE ONES to not collect!?!! Hhaha.

  3. Anything PETER PAN and SPIRITED AWAY. I freaking love DISNEY ! And I swear to you I have been watching Disneyland related vlogs and feel like crying after that! I LOVE disney, and my favourites are definitely PETER PAN (SO UNDERRATED), Piglet (from winnie the pooh), Monsters Inc, Toy Story! And Dumbo too!

  4. Random items like a piece of leaf or rock or paper. Anything that is from another country and I've never seen before is always something special.

  5. Are sweets allowed? I love dark chocolate and I am ever amazed by the kind of chocolates and candies from overseas. So if they are allowed in postages, I would love to receive them. Most of our sweets in Singapore are pretty typical but we do have some snacks that are from the 90's. (; I absolutely adore anything peanut butter or nut butter in general. They are so expensive in Singapore but I am obsess with them. Don't judge but I eat my nut butters with scrambled eggs! They are salty, peppery and sweet all in one and it may sound disgusting and weird to you but they are a delicacy to me! I'm a coffee more than a tea person! My favourite is peppermint mocha and when in season, hit me up with Starbucks PSL! Yummm

  6. Anything that has to with the country you are from. It can a stamp, it can be an brochure or magnet or the Saturday's newspaper. Well, I do love collectibles. I'm weird like that.

  7. Anything related to Spirited Away's No Face and soot balls! I love these two characters because they are so mysterious! Haha. I guess these items are harder to find but if you do have anything related, I welcome them with open arms! ♥

I am a newbie so my collection is still small, but if you guys want anything I will still find it. JUST FOR YOU GUYS. hahah. ♥

Comment: Dear Xue Ying, I have no words to express my gratitude! Thank you so much for your lovely and cheerful Notecard. Life gives you a great gift: make people happy with your statements. Since you are in love with Italy and Sign Languages, let me know if you would love to have a swap postcard! It would really make my day!! For the sunburn, I'd say put on some soothing cream! I am very fair-skinned and always take the highest protection! Despite this I always turn as red as a shrimp haha. Hope you are doing well, All the best Chiara

I'm one of your partners for ESG: Nice profile comment. Thank you for being a member of Swap-Bot and I hope you're having a fabulous weekend.

Yay! Another person who shares my same sense of fashion: comfortable is the ONLY way to go! And I love the items on your wishlist! So many that are similar to things I like, too.

ESG: Nice profile comment

Hey there! I must say I feel really connected to you just by reading your profile haha! I have zero sense of fashion as well! Yaai sister! And I love to travel as well! It is so cool that you were able to see so many places in Asia! So far I have been to Nepal, but I would love to see China and Japan and of course also Singapore! Also yay to the sausages! :D You should come to Germany, we got the best ones!!

I hope you have a wonderful day! All the best! Vanessa
