10 Ways To Bluff Your Way Into Being Atas
Written by Akshay Kothari   
I spend my days at the kopitiam (read: coffee-shop), drinking fifty-cents kopi (read: coffee) out of a glass mug. My singlet is branded, I'll have you know. Flying Horse brand. My slippers are from Bata, no wait…actually, they’re from Bato, a cheap ripoff of Bata with a letter altered to avoid copyright issues.

As I sit there, watching all the 'bananas' drink their Starbucks coffee, clad in their Fandi tote-bags and Kuchi shoes (did I get the brand names right? Oh, never mind!), I am filled with the desire to be like them - to be atas (read: high class).

So how can I fake being atas, and hide the fact that I'm terminally low-class? Come! Let hooked show you…

Top 10 Timeless Beauties
Written by Julia Lua   
What is a classic beauty?

Probably not the instant pop idols of Taiwanese variety shows. With their anorexic frames, mismatch garb, ice kachang hair colour and child-like squeals, they can hardly cut the fine figure of a classic beauty. If anything, they are products of trends.

But, alas, fads come and go, but classic beauty, like anything else that is classic, never goes out of style. A classic beauty will remain beautiful whether it's the 14th century or the 21st century. She carries herself with such poise and grace, it's almost daunting.

Top 10 Small Indulgences
Written by Rohaizatul Azhar   
Let’s see, two weeks into the second semester and I’m already buried knee deep with all kinds of different readings. Blame it on the fact that I chose to be an English Literature major but the issue still remains, THIS madness is not supposed to be happening so early in the semester! It’s times like these that I wish the holidays are beckoning soon!

In the meantime, I have fallen back on my old habit of pampering myself with things that I love just to ease this stress. Only because I think giving some of these goodies a try might be a comfort to any other people out there who are hitting maximum workload right now, I shall list a few things that give me relief from my crazy life!
