Time
I was gonna name this “Death” but on a second thought, that is not what I am actually afraid of. Death is a state, an end result for (unfortunately) all of us living beings. Time, on the other hand, is a quite abstract yet concrete concept. We all have time but none of us really…

NOTHING
I must have gained 20 lbs in the past few weeks. I am also too chicken to stand on a scale to verify the actual figure. As soon as the temperature drops below zero, and the Sun is only available during business hours (the exact hours when I am locked in the downtown glass building…

Library
When was the last time that you have been to a library? I mean not like going in, grab a book and leave; but actually finding a place to sit and spending some time inside a library. Back in University days, library was like a second home to me. Being far away from my sweet…

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…

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…

Back On Track
It’s funny how my mind can be at its quietest moment in a noisy little coffee shop. If you pay attention, you can hear the symphony of espresso machine buzzing, glassware being struck by metal spoons, people laughing and chatting over the background music and the occasional car engine “vrooming” on the street outside. Yet,…

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…

9 to 5
Two more hours to home time. Tick tock. One more day till the weekend. Tick tock. Just another cup of coffee to keep me awake. Let’s refresh the mailbox again to see if there is any new email popping up. Tick tock, tick tock. How much life and creativity is wasted in this 9 to…

Green Lantern
“In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let all who worship evil’s might, beware my power, Green Lantern’s light!”-Hal Jordan. The green represents the power of Will which eventually defeats the yellow power of Fear. Yes, you got me. I netflixed and chilled on some Green Lantern power last night.…

Wedding
Have you planned a wedding before? Yes? Now you are my idol. Please accept my respect. I think this is the perfect time to admit that money CAN buy happiness, in some way. Don’t I just wish that my fiance is a secret billionaire or I won the lottery. My patience for waiting my money…
