It’s heartbreaking and suffocating. Sometimes I still cannot believe that this is happening to us, even in this time and age. It’s just mind-blowing and hard to grasp! It seems like it’s some plot fr

Romantic love seems to have more pressure and it’s very complicated than any other kind of love. In society, with your peers and even with your family, they put pressure on you when it comes to love. People question you and sometimes discriminate you just because you are single or even because you are a virgin in all kind of aspects. I grew up in a very conservati

But if you are really feeling depressed and/or you think you can’t handle anything anymore, I highly suggest that you seek professional help, like see a psychiatrist or a counselor. It’s hard to stay positive or look at the bright side of life when you are struggling and in pain. Add to that the negativity in the world you see or watch or hear on the news, on th

I listed 15 things that I have learned in my life that now made and making my life more fulfilling and helping me reach my dreams. Understanding and applying them all in my life helps me face the day and making me the person that I am today. I’m not perfect, but with these, it’s making me a better person and the person that I am proud to be. And everyday, I’m lea

His voice is just heavenly and the lyrics, as cheesy as it may sound, just touched my heart and soul. I don’t know about you guys, but the song was like telling the story of my life. It made me cry a little and yet made me smile as well. I felt the love and faith that he has with God. “Sometimes I am afraid,

(Photo by Marina Lima on Unsplash: cropped) I’m not 30 years old yet, but I’m almost there. I remember when I was still in my teenage years, I would know my age and can’t seem to care of becoming an adult. I guess that’s what teenagers are excited about–to be an adult because it means you can make decisions, make money of your own, live your life that you wanted and not worry about exams and grades. But once you become an adult, you realize that yes, you can do those things a

(Photo by Andreas Chu on Unsplash: cropped) Year 2020 was off to a bad start. It seems like the end of the world is coming just because of all the disasters that’s happening in the world, and the future seems to be fading. But you know the saying, “the calm after the storm” or “there is a rainbow after the rain”? I think that’s what is happening right now. The world (and people) has become dark, and now it’s cleansing it for a new beginning. So even if the future seems a blur

There’s a lot of things you could do while on lockdown or quarantined. But to some, being cooped up in one place is very unbearable. I saw a meme that says, “I didn’t know that my lifestyle is called quarantine”, and I laughed so hard but so relatable to me. I’m an introvert, so being at home most of the time is what I prefer. There was actually a time that for months I was just inside the house and I didn’t go out. Anyway, yesterday I was thinking of what to write for this b

Hello! Welcome to my blog! I'm so excited to have this blog where I can just share my life, thoughts and interest. It may not be full on story, but I think with this I can hopefully connect to others and have a community. I find writing very therapeutic but also great for self-reflection. I hope that this blog will become an escape for other people's busy lives, and maybe connect to them in some form or another. There will be more to come! I hope you all be part of this journ
