1 Nothing Please

The beginning of the new year is a time for everyone to reflect on the past and take forward our learnings. Of course, some mistakes can’t be undone (Tr… vial or bigger ones ;))  but we remember so that we can cherish the good and learn from the bad: 1. Weight is very difficult to lose and too easy to gain – All the weight I had proudly lost in 2015 was gained back in 2016. So I am back to square…

Today I let go of a dream. I threw away a game that I bought many years ago. It is a really simple dominos game. Like many other old board and card games I have possibly outgrown, I simply kept it. Let it collect dust in my cupboard and its components turn yellow.  Looking at the rotting thing and its other aging companions in my cupboard, I wondered last night why I ever kept them. I don’t think…

Shabby Sketches #32: The Metro Ones

I think my metro ride to office every morning is something special. Yes, it is the same old scenery (or lack of it if you live in an urban jungle like Dubai). But the people in it are the real special ones. It is the little things that really brighten your mood and set yourself for a good day. The blushing couple, the laughing baby, it is the little things. I didn’t have the guts to literally…

I should be used to the arguments and insults exchanged But each time you leave me more devastated than the last. The fight comes to an end but the pain remains unchanged As we are both doomed to these vile reiterations of the past. Maybe the problem in this relationship is you or maybe me Or that this whole relationship is a complete cosmic mistake. But I am bound to you by the blood in each…

Hello everyone, happy hump day! Have a wonderful day guys, the weekend’s right around the corner but until then, here are some gifs I made to entertain y’all till then: 1. Why reality hits you… literally! http://1nothingplease.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/videotogif_2016-09-20_21-58-091.gif 2. When you see the news about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie getting divorced…

I just realized today that dolphins are actually carnivorous! They eat other smaller fish! I know it is unfair and irrational but I don’t think I like them so much anymore. Their cute ki-ki-ki is actually evil laughter ke ke ke (in South Korean comics or manhwa, that is how evil laughter sounds like). . . . . . . Now that Nemo is out of the way… Sorry if I ruined your childhood!

I have been having a really tough time lately so I was looking through some of my older things like cards and pictures to cheer myself up. I came across a folder containing things from my kindergarten days. For those unfamiliar with the term kindergarten, it is the one or two years of schooling some countries have before 1st grade and I was around 3-4 years old when I joined. After brushing off…

To all my fellow ladies out there, have you ever dealt with a douchebag? A tool? A perfect MCP? I am not sure what that one means but my Mum told me it was one of her first impressions of my Dad so I can easily assume it’s not nice. Don’t worry, they are still happily married, they just happily argue some times. But I think I have the perfect comeback to those jerks and I think it’s really…

It’s hump day today and I needed to procrastinate important work so I decided to draw a camel in honour of this lovely weekday. The only problem is I haven’t drawn anything since 2008 and I mostly got C’s in Art class in school. I really think the way art class is graded needs to be changed. You should be graded on effort rather than the final product. So what if my self-portrait looks like…

One day, Meghan Trainor walks into a fast food restaurant… Don’t go messing with that bass.
