About Me
My name is Nicholas Leow and I am currently a Year 2 student studying in Business Process & Systems Engineering (BZE) at Temasek Polytechnic, I aspire to be an Accountant in the future. Other than Sports, I am also someone who loves to collect and hoard toys, some of the toys I collect are LEGOs, Gundams, and Japanese Capsule Toys (Gashapon). I also like to play and collect a lot of Trading Card Games (TCG) such as Cardfight!! Vanguard, Pokémon, and Magic The Gathering.
A glimpse of a part of my unhealthy collection of toys. Gundam figures and LEGO minifigures can be seen on display.
Aside from my toy collecting hobby, I also like to engage in sports activity to keep myself healthy and reduce stress. I love team sports as I like to meet new friends and groups. One of the sports that I have recently engage and met new people is Dragon Boat. Occasionally, you would be able to find me playing Table Tennis with my friends at the Sports Hall in Our Tampines Hub or at other Community Centers.

I met many new friends during a dragon boat activity during term break. (I am the person wearing purple and sitting at the end of the boat).
It has always been my passion and interest to give back to the community and help others. To do so, I am currently participating in many community based programs as a volunteer such as Enlighten and PA-TP Community Leadership Programme. I have also volunteered as a peer tutor for EMATH to help other TP students with the subject.
Outside of my free time, I also like to participate in many exchange programs with students from other countries. This is because I would be able to interact with them personally which will help me to learn and understand their culture better as compared to doing research and reading it up online.
Some of the exchange programmes I participated are Waseda Shibuya exchange program and Kumamoto College exchange programme.
