Wow. Finally dusting up this old place. This place where, once upon a time, I came to bleed my heart out and tell my innermost thoughts. It feels odd to be back and I hope, the place will feel like home, like it once did. I remember when I still visited this place, my worst…… Continue reading Return of the…
The day she was accepted, she read the email three times before she accepted it. She sat with the news for a few minutes. It was the fatigue, it couldn’t be true. She had come from work, popped into her French class and had now just gotten home and slumped herself on the couch. Her…… Continue reading A chance..
We are almost 48 hours into 2019, and I have had a total of 8 hours of sleep. About 10 cups of tea and 1 cup of coffee. 3 small meals. 2 mini-breakdowns that didn’t quite explode, because in 2019 we have to be strong hardworking women who can keep it together and break down…… Continue reading So far..
It’s 8.20pm here and it’s probably 10.20 pm back at home.. I’m about to have a panic attack. I’m trying breathing exercise and to pen my feelings down as fast as possible.

Stop acting like a fucking desperate whore! You motherfreaking bitch!” So, that made me calm down. Because it’s true. I…… Continue reading 9/7/2018
When I was a kid, my dad traveled a lot for work. I thought it was the coolest thing on earth. I didn’t care for what they would do all day. All I saw, was him get on a plane, see different roads (that probably don’t have traffic), street lights that work, big snowy mountains,…… Continue reading Landed Safely.
I have this crippling fear inside of me that anything I do, will not work in my favor. It makes me stay in bed all day, or do anything but what I am supposed to do. It’s getting in the way of everything. Nay, I am getting in the way of everything. I am done…… Continue reading The impostor
I was really having a sad-moody day today and I found healing in two ways. One, was some good ‘ol (new) Daniel Caesar, and Two, Running (Jogging really but let me feel athletic just for today sawa?). I know, I know you must be thinking running? Running to go get food ama? No, no, I…… Continue reading 28 minutes
It’s half past seven pm. now. I’m in bed with a stained pinky, trying to sketch a sketchy piece for election day. My back feels like breaking, and no it’s not solely because of standing in the lines for a long time. Since my househelp decided to stage a dramatic walk out (which I missed…… Continue reading Of Polling stations
