Personal Musings: How to Cope with Gym Anxiety
Lets talk about 𝐠𝐲𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐱𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲: I recently received a DM from a follower asking “How to get more confidence to go to the gym?” She further explained that she is worried about what other people might think or look at her some way because she’s not “ripped” or “fit” Here’s a #realtalk, most fit people in the gym are too concerned about how they look and wont have time to judge you. More often than not, they also have their own sets of concerns. Ive been…

My Hyper fixation on Coco Ichibanya’s Chicken Curry
This was supposed to be a review. But then I noticed something. Eating the same order, at the same restaurant, every week – is not normal. I’m not sure if this is a symptom of me having a bipolar disorder, but more often than not I get hyper fixeted on things every since I was little from owning pets, to buying the same thing in every color, and to eating the same food for a long time. Hyperfixation happens when you’re completely engrossed by something,…

Life lately: On pancakes and what’s eating my pie
Pancakes and pies. These are two metaphors that my loved ones made. Geof thought of it last week, saying we should use the word pancake as synonymous to tasks that we have to accomplish each day. While the pie was thought of by Ryan, who suggested I use it to visualise on how I split myself on different priorities in my personal life. I’m thankful I found a bit of time and motivation to write on my blog. Im sure most of you visit here…

What should you read next? Books that made readers pause because it was too good
What should you read next? I was chapter 6 on Six of Crows when I halted my reading. I began enjoying the world I’m immersed in, that the author created, and started appreciating each main character. It was too good I took long breaks before reading chapter by chapter. Have you ever felt so good about a book you purposely stopped because you don’t want it to end? Realizing this was a great way to find whether the book is worth reading or not (besides…

Personal Musings: Post-pandemic updates (sort of)
There are a LOT of stories to tell. Really. Since the whole COVID pandemic happened in 2019. We all had experienced our ups and downs (mostly downs), and if you’re reading this now, you are a survivor. The pandemic isn’t over yet, but we have seen positive signs of recovery. Majority of the population has been vaccinated, there are on-going research for future medications that will make the covid part of the “normal” flu shots. But I’m not here to write scientific or political updates. I’m just here…

Switching Careers at 30: How I transitioned from IT to Journalism
I appreciate what I do at work, but debugging and analyzing software wasn't really my calling. I didn't like spending 2-3 hours in traffic, work 8 hours in an office, then spend another 2-3 hours in traffic.
