New Blog Mascot!

Hello, I am Rumia the Seedling.

Rumia is the official mascot for Dear Vincent,. It is modeled after a seedling to symbolise this blog's new beginnings of building up a repertoire of content series to continually engage readers from around Singapore and the world.

The name Rumia came from the Polynesian legend of creation. In the legend, Rumia was the shell that held space for the light of the universe to be born. It can be interpreted as a cosmic egg that nurtured the origins of the universe. This name is chosen to represent this seedling as it reflects the role of the seedling as the origin of something much bigger, such as a tall tree. Here, the seedling represents the hope for growth and transformation for this blog.

The shape of the seed resembles a heart shape (tilt your head towards the left to see the shape clearly), which is a testament to how much this blog's author has poured his heart into to create quality content. Asides from the face, the young tender stem and leaves helps Rumia to provide a greater range of expressions.

Rumia enjoys listening to uplifting stories, which are its source of nutrients. It also requires a lot of sunshine (= viewership) and water (= Vincent's blog posts) to help it grow. It is a hyperactive seedling that overcame its biological limits to be able to move from place to place via bouncing on the bottom of the seed or using its stem to grab onto objects like a monkey's tail.

Rumia will make its occasional appearance in future blog posts to share some of his feelings on the subject matter of the post. It looks forward to seeing you again soon.
