books to read
i really think i am lucky to enjoy reading. some people just do not enjoy reading, and i really do feel sorry for them.

positive people
i like being around positive people.
i guess it’s kind of assumed that everyone likes being around an optimistic, caring person, and maybe even more assumed that everyone in the end wants to be happy and be that happy person for others to witness…but sometimes that isn’t the case.
i used to hang around this one girl [...]

District 9
I am not really a fan of science fiction/mythology/fantasy. I rarely like watching movies/tv shows that are dated in the age of “Merlin” where the townsfolk meet up with the wise old wizard to fight the invading trolls in their village. Or where the setting of the film is in some random planet where aliens [...]

photography
one of the many reasons why i love reading and looking through foodblogs are their pretty photos that are taken throughout the process of whatever they are making, and then the long awaited for picture of the actual result(s)!
i like seeing the crisp clear pictures taken of whatever the person happens to be making, and [...]

the other day i found that someone in our house (or maybe not even from our house) was throwing away a few yards of mesh-like cloth/screen cloth. i forgot what you call it…
ANYWAY,
so of course i had to take it because an old (not an original though) idea came up to me.
when i visited a [...]

hmmm
i guess after a couple more minutes of thinking, i realized/decided that making a food blog is kinda of…unpractical for me to do. it is unrealistic for me to think that i can bake/cook something delicious at least once or twice a week and make an entry of it.
i know it doesnt sound like [...]

the weekend
i know the last thing people want to read is about how great someone else’s weekend was. and 9/10, when you do read what that person did during their “glorious” 3 days, it turns out to be extremely boring and quite frankly, odd.
but too bad for you, im going to start write about my weekend. [...]

a perfect ordinary day
i have a lot of “perfect day” scenarios out there in my head (yes, i actually think about these things).

i would wake up around 9am and eat a light breakfast of scrambled eggs [...]
