    Disney heroes

    Always, that knight in shining armour that would defend me like this — whenever I watch things like this, I always wish. That someone should have done that for me, and that nobody did…  I feel like I’m still looking.

  • A hobbit

    A hobbit

    I I had a great night watching The Hobbit with C and some friends. I hardly remember anything from LOTR since I have never re-watched it since the first time it was screened in cinemas, and never read the books either. I enjoyed The Hobbit more compared to my experience of fear while watching LOTR.…

    currently reading: status anxiety, alain de botton

    I’ve been reading Status Anxiety and it’s helping me understand my feelings towards some people and especially my perception of myself. It explores mankind’s history, from the age of peasants and their unfortunate lot in life, and compares it to how much miserable we are compared to them, despite the fact that we are materially richer…

    short hair is so addicting

    The first time I had my hair cut really short was on the 14th of September. Before that, the last time I had hair cropped like a boy’s was in grade school.  And then it grew a bit and I realized that having short hair meant I have to become more decided on whether I…

    weekend

    had my first workshop ever, thanks to PWDO. it wasn’t my best, but it doesn’t have to be my last so at least I know what to improve on next time. I don’t really want to share it right now because my slides are so ugly and crammed, but someone asked for it last weekend…

    I’m thinking, “I’m almost 23. I should be traveling the world.”

    My family never really traveled. With one parent working, we just couldn’t afford it. Growing up, the farthest I got to was Puerto Galera (back when I was four years old and it was still pretty) and Baguio (around high school). I think my mom wanted to go to other places in the country, but…

  • Better, better, better

    Better, better, better

    Tying up some lose ends in work. Stay firm in saying ‘no’ to projects for a while, until I get my shit together. Have a little faith in myself. Relax and enjoy Taipei. My sessions have been very helpful, I’d like to believe. I’m told I will continue to struggle with some things but I…
