CHINA 2025
China is beautiful and so, so vast. I like how it was never really at the top of my Must-Go list, and how I've thoroughly enjoyed this trip to Beijing and Yunnan; I love proving myself wrong like that. :)

My First Women’s Circle
I gotta say, before I met Jesse, I’ve never known what a “men’s circle” or a “women’s circle” is. “Is it like Alcoholic Anonymous?” I remember asking him. I attended my first women’s circle a while back. First off, let me give you some context – I’m not always the most comfortable with strangers. I despise small talks and it takes me 5 meetings...

Carpe Noctem
I love the night, especially quiet ones like tonight. It is so still that I can almost hear the dialogues I have with myself in my head. Carpe noctem. I wondered why I didn’t get off the car tonight. Because I cared. And maybe a little too much. Oh well. I enjoyed going out tonight, it was nice to see people, friends, acquaintances. It...

I look back upon it now with nothing but gratitude.

I still struggle with being on my own, I'm just dealing with it better now. But I believe that I'll just get better and better over time,...

Tian Yuan Xiang 田原香滴鸡精
We are what we eat. As I grow older, I realised the importance of making good choices when it comes to food, supplements and other nourishments. As a child, chicken essence almost always meant the exams are coming. My Mom would often prepare chicken essence for me the night before a major paper or in the morning before I headed to the exam hall....

Forgiveness
As I was taking a shower earlier, with Time After Time covered by Iron and Wine playing in the background on repeat, I decided that I needed to document what was running through my head as the shower happened. Forgiveness. I’d like to talk about forgiveness. I think there hasn’t been too many instances in my life where I had to (really) forgive someone....

Time Out
There are a million and one things in my life that I'm feeling stuck at. And I think it all boils down to a lack of self-awareness and confidence.
