Hello thereIt has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have

How's everything? I stopped writing for some time as I don't feel the need to write because I always do not know what direction I am taking this blog post. However it has always been at the back of mind to write something, at least once a week. Ever since I started journaling regularly, I didn't quite feel the need to update this blog. But moving forward, I will try to make more effort because I

Hello, miss me? I had been a little 'off' recently and wanted to lay down low a bit but it can get rather lonely and if I carry on, I can get carried away and that's not good. So I shall begin to crawl out a little by posting here after a long time.Sometimes we just think too much over things and people that our minds get a little messed up as our self esteem gets lower and lower. I may not be

I'm back writing as I am also trying to get into a routine so that I can do more in life while spending time on my interests as well. Recently, I have been lacking in focus and it is a problem that will appear every now and then as my own self worth drop down pretty low when I subconsciously compare myself to others. I would rather be inspired by people, rather than being pulled down and thinking

I have been so bad at updating the blog. Okay I am trying to update as regularly as I can, lol. Anyway, here is an embarrassing picture of me on the swing from many years ago. Nothing much going on and sometimes I feel a tad embarrassed that I don't quite see myself as 'busy' as other people, especially among my friends. When we want to plan on a date for meet up, it can be quite a headache

Little pleasures in life like this cuppaSo this week, we entered March and how apt for the 1st of March to start on a Monday which is also the start of a new week. Alas, in February, there were quite a number of death news received. And many of them were young still with a bright future ahead of them, an established career, a family man or woman..as death does not discriminate who should go first

Hi thereThis morning, I was feeling super sleepy. I have been waking up at odd hours after sleeping about 10 to 11 plus at night. Then I would just do things that I had planned to do and then catch up with netflix or youtube for like half an hour. I would have continued sleeping but I just feel that I need to do some 'catching up' also and hence why I woke up in the middle of the night.Anyway, so

Greetings!It was Valentine's Day yesterday and the day before, there was this small space with pretty heart themed decos and this was one of them.I haven't been catching up on blogging lately though I have typed out the blog post which I took some significant amount of doing so. I just feel that it wasn't perfect enough or that I had rambled on things that I might have talked about in the past.

A sweet treat over the weekendI have a confession. I am the queen of distractions...lol. It's still a work in progress for me to rid of the habit of being easily distracted, especially when I have actual things to do but I have a solution that I find is rather helpful. Okay, maybe very helpful because I managed to do up a custom order in one sitting yesterday night. And that is my most

How did you start your 2021? Today marked the first week for the new year and to be honest, I didn't feel very accomplished. In fact, it was rather slow and I don't know why, last two days I had been sleepy when I was watching youtube or watching netflix at night. I was barely on the internet for half an hour and felt the sleepiness creeping in.Where did my energy go? The first day of the

Here's a pictorial recaps on what I had been up to recently in December.We are officially on the last day of 2020. Many of us are hopeful for a better 2021. I also feel that we are entering 2021 with renewed goals amidst the chaos that the pandemic brought upon this world that affected everyone. Many of us started to feel demotivated and also frustrated because we experienced things that we

So there is some delay in posting up a new post. I actually have a written draft but I think I wanna write about a completely different thing. so we are barely two weeks into 2021 and for most of

Hi thereThank you for being here, lol. I don't know if people still read blogs but if you are here reading my humble blog, once again thanks! I just can't let go of this blog after so many years and then I just want to continue writing here, even if it's just once a week. So it is somewhat like a weekly blog.I have been following up a Master Consistency class and there are 20 parts to it. The one

Every December I will have minor plans, mainly shopping but this year will be different because I need to save more money. And as in my last post, I don't get additional bonus on top of the 13th month bonus so there is no way I can be careless but to be more prudent. But this month, we will receive $100 Re-discovery vouchers that will help us to subsidise some fees off local attractions and hotel

This year passed by pretty fast because almost everyday seemed like a survival ever since end of March when things start to turn for the worst due to Covid 19. People didn't think that it would turn the whole world upside down and until this day, the pandemic causes ripples in almost every major countries and cities. And then we have to get used to the new norm and experiencing the after effects

One of my guilty pleasures which I don't really share with others because it's rather embarrassing, is that I enjoy reading webtoons, manga and watching anime. It's not an extensive hobby like I am not so deeply passionate about it like some people do. But why I say it's embarrassing because well, some are trashy novels where the plot lines are basically the writer's wildest fantasies in comic

A tall and handsome...red velvet ice creamSometimes I feel like I am not doing enough or work hard enough to achieve what I want out of life. Or it gets tiring when things don't go as planned or the results that I get were not fast enough. I know this is not something new that I write about but just like the tides, our life pretty much goes up and down too, especially when we get overwhelmed or

Smile and radiate with happinessWhat does happiness mean to us? Recently I came across a recent poll on IG simply asking how happy are you. The results were of course a mixture but I just found more were leaning on being unhappy. It was understandable because they stated their unhappiness were due to the unfortunate events in their lives such as the loss of a loved one, job, miscarriage, their

Cat and mouse gameHappy November! We are down to the last two months. Seriously this year is such a roller coaster ride and whether we like it or not, all of us are affected by Covid-19 virus one way or another. But going beyond this pandemic, there are also many other things that happen, in our personal or professional life, that make us ponder and think hard about how we have been living our

One of the things that I enjoy in life is eating ice cream like the picture you see above. I know it's sweet and all but I particularly liked dark and rich chocolate flavour and is willing to pay $5 for it, coming from someone who is calculative over money, lol.  It tastes so good and I typically eat it, not all the time, but usually when I get stressed out by life in general.

But recently, I listened and read about other people's mental health issues and how common and serious they have become.

me self reflecting on lifeLast week, I was quite a mess in regards to managing my life. I felt a little out of grasp because I guess I tend to focus my energy more on things that don't add meaning to my life. However, I still enjoy those moments but it was a little bit on the excessive. But it's not all the way down the rabbit hole for me. I still manage to achieve some things such as attending a

Last Thursday, I was a back in office and to prevent me from falling asleep, I was listening to an hour and a half long podcast although I didn't listen to it in one shot. It was an interview with a well known entertainer and host in Singapore named Suhaimi Yusof, a household name here and he also had made a name for himself in Malaysia as well. He was a former radio deejay, a host, comedian

I recently finished watching an anime which I put on hold for some time, even after watching my first Anime series called Fire Force Season 1. To be honest, I watch Anime and live action anime but not on a regular basis, those that piqued my interest only. Like I started watching Fire Force coz I thought it seemed like an interesting premise but then apparently, it became more than just fighting

One of the things that I sometimes fail to do is reminding myself to say my daily gratitude but I try my best to pray for my family's safety, health and well being as much as I can. They are after all, one of the pillars supporting me, despite the many disagreements we have. I believe the bond we share over the years, even surpasses the friendships that I have. This is exclusive to me, as last
