Do you remember how your week just went? Do you remember it roughly or do you remember it all the details of each day? I usually think that my week begins with Monday and ends with Sunday. I have my Japanese class on Sunday. Usually my sensei like to ask us to make sentence as practice with the topic of our week. However when you were put on the spot, for some reasons, I can’t recall my week. Sensei will […]

Mosquito teacher
In one of Ajahn Brahm past talk, he mentioned that when mosquito is buzzing around you, disturbing your sleep and so on, they are doing a favour to teach us something. You can read the talk here. In which reminds me of one of my fur boys. I still keep in touch with the shelter owner to update her about the situations I’m facing and she said he taught me a lot. I second that statement. I never have a […]
Just try it
This is the third week since I adopted two cats, and I felt they had been with me longer than that. I don’t know why.. Maybe I have been intense experience for the first two weeks and now gradually started to adjust to a rhythm which works for three of us. I actually forgot that they are still adjusting to me, my place and their new life too. Only when my friends started to say, they just three weeks with […]
Run it out, eh, sweat it out
A wise friend always advises me (and other friends) when you’re in doubt, or doesn’t feel well, or basically when you have something troubling your mind, go for a run. I always reply, I’d rather do something else than that. However, I have to admit that sometimes it’s easier to just put on your sneakers and run, whether it’s a slow one or fast one, or perhaps just do a walk. (Depending on the degree of the matters, I find […]
The art of repeating
Repetition can be boring. Doing the same thing over and over again. Or can be scary too when you need to deal with some unpleasant experience again and again over short period of time. For example, cockroaches in your house keep showing up. =_=! (Ugh..) But one thing I realize too is depending on the gap between one and another, it can be a good thing. Because it’s like a training, like it or not, just get used to it. […]
Are you working on your goals or your cause?
Every new year, I plan my yearly goals, like what are the activities I’d like to do, what are the new things I’d like to learn and so on. Some are completed and became my new favorite past time. But some just became bucket list activities, been there done that, ticked and hardly do it again because of new activities or just pushed down naturally. There was a time when I was still trying my bestest to achieve it and […]
It’s new year again
Late late..! I’m late in writing this week blog post due to holiday mood is striking me. We just had a Lunar New Year celebration last week and it completely turned off my brain for many things. Interesting event happened to me was when I flew back to Singapore from my hometown. (Yes, holiday is over). I found out a movie which I haven’t watched and wanted to watch – Pokemon: Pikachu I choose you (ポケットモンスター キミにきめた). I missed out […]
The lessons from traveling alone
Have you ever travelled alone? Or often travel alone either for leisure or business. For me, I don’t usually travel alone for both cases. Well, flying alone to other place is normal to me, but usually I’ll meet someone at the destination and going travel together. When you’re traveling with your friends in those foreign land, it’s very comforting to always have someone to converse with in language you are comfortable to speak. In cases of the place of destination […]
