Therapy II
Woah my first ever sequel! And thank you for waiting so patiently for this my seven dedicated readers! Sitting on her couch, I reached for a long woolly pillow and held it on my lap. The giant ceiling-to-floor window was right beside this comfortable couch. A line of birds (probably the signature Canada Geese) were…

Failure
I was born to make mistakes, not to fake perfection. Drake I was walking on our dusty treadmill wearing a wireless headphone blasting motivational speech for 40 minutes non stop. Oh, you read that right, I did say that I was on a treadmill last night. A lot of people have a treadmill in the…

Therapy
It is not easy to go through therapy. Let me skip all the mental debates of whether or not we should go seek for help from a psychologist. That is a whole other chapter in itself. It takes a lot of courage to acknowledge that I have a mental illness and professional help will be…

Fear of Traveling
As soon as I dipped my toes in the pool, with a chilling glass of champagne in one hand and a chocolate covered strawberry in another, I knew this was all worth it. A month before this moment, J booked our flights. “United? We are going to be flying with United?!” Not surprisingly, I started…

Youtuber

People make videos on playing video games, eating food, or pranking others; literally anything is possible. And the reward is certainly attractive.

A Mom’s Love
Generally speaking, moms love their kids unconditionally. It takes a lot of sacrifice and effort to raise a child. Before I became a mom, I always thought that “being a mom” is a natural instinct. It’s like a “mom hormone” would be released from your brain as soon as a baby is born. And then…

Run Away
How many of you had or are having the thought of running away? Away from these chains, responsibilities, away from the boring repetitive routines? Or even away from society where you can see injustice or crazy people everywhere? If you have, then where are you running to? A deserted Island with wifi and unlimited supplies…

Also, excessive drinking is bad, very bad for your health. Please drink responsibly. Ok. Alcohol saved my sanity yesterday. The fuzzy peach Schnapps with vodka shooter was especially deeeeeelicious.
