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,…

Inner Peace
We were born with inner peace. I used to be fascinated by the forever changing clouds and would lay on the grass staring at the sky for hours. With the help of a silky bed sheet as cape and a chopstick as wond, I can be any powerful fairy imaginable. I used to be happy…

Youtuber
It is a dream job for kids born in the 2000s. Technically speaking, anyone with a phone or camera can become a Youtuber. People make videos on playing video games, eating food, or pranking others; literally anything is possible. And the reward is certainly attractive. In 2015, the top Youtuber PewDiePie made a gross earning…

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…

The Sound of Silence
I don’t know why I am so triggered by this comic. I can just sense the desperation behind each party’s waving hands. Is my depression kicking in again? I feel it knocking on the door. It will be another few weeks of darkness before I can catch a breath again sinking into the gloomy ocean…

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.…

Inadequate
Have you ever felt inadequate? No? Good for you. And stop lying to me, I can’t even hear you. Feeling inadequate is a common (hashtag) mood in today’s society. Social media is doing such a great job shoving everyone else’s beautiful faces and luxury vacations in our faces on a minute by minute bases. Almost…

Life
For some reason, my bone hurts. More specifically speaking, one middle section of my spine hurts. It has been hurting for a while and no amount of Yoga or harsh stretching helps. I started to feel hard to fall asleep unless I listen to some humming meditation music together with swallowing some Advil. After several…
