The Words I Never Spoke: A Tale of Goodbye
A Food Farewell
By Sylvia Barrios Gotor
As I get ready to graduate the weight of goodbye is looming. Yet, I’m ready for a simple farewell as the majority of my emotions won’t be shared in those last hugs. The majority of my mourning will be behind closed doors and in the words I’ll never speak.
A Letter To Dairy Farm Estate
By Emma Torjeson

A Letter To My Favouite Place
By Minji Suk
With barely three months left in a place I will forever call home, I thank all the places that have made my memories in Singapore special.
By Adam Brest
In my fifteen years at SAS, time has totally blurred together. But when I think back, the clearest memories aren’t of tests or grades—they’re of what I ate, where I sat, and who I shared it with. From fruit circles in preschool to Grab deliveries to evade Sodexo in high school, food has quietly marked my every chapter here.
