I’m sitting on the closed lid of a toilet in a moving train and try to count the wrinkles in my face as I’ve now officially passed the 40-year mark. I’m also trying to draw an eyebrow onto my face, but it’s proving to be quite a challenge under aforementioned conditions. I imagine the train … More Everyday Life | Staying Young

Nope. Not even turning 40 has made me any the wiser on some things. Here’s 10 more completely, utterly incomprehensible things I feel exist in life: Kids who kick the front door for fun – What is wrong with them? What happened to ringing someone’s doorbell and run away? Why do kids nowadays disregard other … More Everyday Life | Life’s Incomprehensibilities (pt. 4)

(Sorry about my absence, I had a horrible flu keeping me down -_-) At first, I mistake my misty eyes for nostalgia as I pin down another forgotten personal treasure onto my massive cork notice board. Apart from masking the awfulness of my hall’s wall by covering over 30% of it, it is a great … More Everyday Life | Pinning Down Love

I have the most beautiful eyes in the World. Have I ever told you the story of my eyes? I probably did – didn’t I? I can’t remember. It’s been so long since I’ve started this blog, so many things have been talked about, many more have been left unsaid… Anyway, it’s a good story, … More Everyday Life | Eye See You

As I stare at the woman in front of me, I feel something I haven’t felt in a long time. I feel beautiful. Completely out of my comfort zone, yes, but beautiful. I carefully caress the soft fabric of my gala dress and do a quarter-turn to the right while staring at myself in the … More Everyday Life | Beautiful Feeling

The words that were supposedly spoken by Confucius ring to mind (read to find). There are so many things in life I don’t understand and most likely will never come to comprehend. So I started a list of those things, and here’s 10 more I like to share with you: Why people do not wear … More Everyday Life | Life’s Incomprehensibilities (pt. 3)

All it took was one glance outside for me to make a run for it… As I was putting away my newly bought vacuum cleaner in my newly bought sofa (you read that right, in the sofa! I thank the Universe and Ikea for that), I heard a voice outside asking my neighbour to move … More Everyday Life | Invasion Of The Fruit Flies

“Well then, that’s just dandy isn’t it?” I say the words out loud, even if nobody hears me. Maybe I had done better outing my feelings while I was still on the phone – oh well. It was a cloudy-but-promising Sunday morning when I happily settled into Ursula – she’s my car. With me were … More Everyday Life | Custody Of A Car

It is written in the stars: we were meant to be family. I pet my concrete floor a little harder than I would my actual pets, and masterfully (and perhaps a tad violently) scrape off a big, white blob of paint residue. I let out a maniacal chuckle. Then stop when I realise my window … More Everyday Life | Handy Family

I need not look out of my window to know the World is ending. The bright flashes of the ongoing, stroboscopic lightning fill me with an uncanny feeling of fear. I mean, I’ve been afraid before. And I’ve known, at times, how silly I was for feeling so. But this… This is different. It’s a … More Everyday Life | Apocalypse At Night
