Those 90 mins convince you that… that fantasy is possible. And you work hard every day so that one day you can live life like those characters in the movie. Because that’s the fantasy that sells. No one wants to see a movie about the daily life of an average person. Because there’s nothing worth getting excited for when it comes to our mundane life
I have seen many rom coms but I have never seen a rom com tied to the theme of conservation of animals! So it was refreshing to see our main characters rediscover themselves and also care about the environment.
I'm 19 years old, and it is time to go on my first date, even if it's a disaster.
Once again, I chose being productive over being happy. The only thing different this time was that this time I was aware of what I was doing. The countless times that I had done this unconsciously in my childhood was because I thought being successful would finally make people see me and want to be friends with me.
Life hasn't been kind to me lately. What I hoped would be my saving grace in my career, didn't quite happen. In my personal life too, I am now doing long distance with my boyfriend plus I don't have a lot of friends that I can count on. So a wave of negativity has hit... Continue Reading →
So I may not have done everything that my 17-year-old- self thought would give her happiness. But she didn't know that happiness could look different from what she had imagined at that time.

One minute I was planning my first-ever international trip and the next moment I'm already on the plane back home from the most anticipated week of my life. And it was the best end to 2022 that I could have ever imagined. My first... Continue Reading →
The past week was a tough one for me, emotionally. I have limited friends in the city and I work a remote job so there's hardly human interaction during the weekdays. Often times my boyfriend who lives in the city is the only person I interact with face to face on weekdays. That keeps me... Continue Reading →
After at least 10 rejections, I was hollowed. I ran out of energy and hope. I kept my head down and just gave up. Hoping that I will try again once I feel ready to face rejection again.
I feel like a leaf in an ocean, driven by the currents. The leaf doesn’t have a destination, it will go anywhere the currents take it. It doesn’t even know it's on an ocean wave that it can’t control.
The last few weeks have been crazy. And I officially don't know what the fuck am I doing in my personal and professional life. Everything that I try ends up being disastrous. After endless months of interviews and rejections, I had given up on finding a better job and decided to give up and stick... Continue Reading →
