I went to the doctor last week to get my left ear checked. He asked me about my job and if I work from home too because of the pandemic. I told him I have been working from home since early 2018. So he said, "so nothing has changed?" I know he only meant the … Continue reading so nothing has changed | life lately
WSPD | this is okay
It can be overwhelming at first, but the dark isn’t too bad. It is the arms that caress her at night to make sure she doesn’t sleep alone; the gentle touch that wipes the tears away. It is the blanket that makes her feel safe—too familiar that it is impossible not to feel its comfort … Continue reading WSPD | this is okay
Kim Ji Young Born 1982 on Netflix
I previously mentioned that I started reading this book "Kim Ji Young, Born 1982 (82년생 김지영)". But I had to stop at some point because aside from it made me really mad, it has become too triggering to bear. To my surprise, I saw it featured when I opened my Netflix. I don't know when … Continue reading Kim Ji Young Born 1982 on Netflix

When 2020 started, I tried to do this "monthly favorites and discoveries" which has just been neglected, given all the circumstances I (and the world) was in—and still in! But I didn't stop discovering things and finding something that can add value and meaning to my life especially during this pandemic. You really have to … Continue reading Learning A New Language Through Music

Ready-to-Cook Tteokbokki by Popbites
I love food, but I do not like cooking. Well, I think it's fun. Sometimes. I can't grasp the fact that I have to spend at least half an hour preparing the food that I can devour in 5 minutes, so kudos to those who cook! I admire the patience and dedication. 😂 I love … Continue reading Ready-to-Cook Tteokbokki by Popbites
