musings of a twenty-something bilingual
I sit here on our final night in Penang in the lobby of our hotel, enjoying the funky musician playing and singing classics, and wish to reflect on our days in Penang. Pre-flight series: After a gruelling journey consisting of two 7hr flights and then a quick little one, we arrived at our first destination:… Continue reading summer :: penang pt.1
SELF-LOVEI realised something today: I get over things easily because I've learned to love myself. I am who I am, and it has take me years to be at peace with so many parts of myself, so now that I am, I can't just throw that peace to the ground and crumble. This self-love makes… Continue reading love :: worthy
I dreaded waking up today to the 10am release of second year results. It didn't help that I woke up 45 minutes early - I had to fill that time with something other than crippling anxiety.

However after a while, I find myself bored. Learning to pace myself and pace the things I want… Continue reading life :: pace
Since I've covered dating more than once, and a host of other topics, I thought why not discuss an important part of growing up: friendships. I'm not going to focusing on 'making' friends, but rather friendships and what they mean to me, and what they could/should mean to you. THEY ARE NOT EASY Friendships go… Continue reading life :: friendships

I read this article in Oh Comely magazine not long back about how we grow out of ou skin every 7 years, and with each is… Continue reading life :: outgrow

HEARTBREAK When heartbreak happens, it's like being gutted with a knife like a fish. But, the thing to remember is you're… Continue reading love :: someone
The morning after the Manchester bombing, I sat waiting to be taken home from my boyfriend's, who left for work an hour ago. When I'm home, I take a shower. I thank the Lord for my safety, and my friends' safety. Purse/All I Need Is You by Hillsomg Worship is playing while I'm in the… Continue reading faith :: misconstrued
