After Friday’s unexpected outing and Saturday’s road trip to Ngong, Sunday was much quieter. I woke up around noon and enjoyed some leftover pizza from the night before. With no electricity for most of the day, there wasn’t much to do, so I spent most of my time resting. My Sunday consisted of a simple routine: sleep, wake up, eat and repeat. Normally, I would have found that boring, but after…

On the weekend, my sister decided that we should go out since most of the time we’re usually indoors. She asked me which movie I wanted to watch, and after checking what was showing, she told me to pick any of them. But honestly, none of the movies interested me. That’s when I realized something—I haven’t really been into watching the latest movies or dramas lately. I love Asian dramas, and…

I’m back again with part 3 of answering random questions from Our Moments: Girls Night Out. Some of these questions are fun, some slightly questionable, and others unexpectedly personal. But I think that’s what makes this series interesting, you never really know what kind of answer you’re about to give until you stop and think about it. Is there a quote you strive to live by?I don’t have one…

I’m back with Part 2—answering a few more questions and sharing a little more about myself. What do you miss the most from your childhood?Being together with my siblings. Right now, everyone is scattered. We rarely meet, and most of our communication happens on WhatsApp. We even created a group for just the three of us. We don’t talk all the time, but we send each other funny reels, and once in…

I came across Our Moments: Girls Night Out, a question card game usually played with friends or your bestie. I decided to try it on my own as a fun way to reflect and share a bit more about myself. Since I don’t have anyone to play it with right now, I thought—why not try it solo? Think of this as a little window into who I am—unfiltered, one question at a time. Here are my answers to some of…

Hidden Gem “Rurouni Kenshin.”That’s the very first thought that comes to mind whenever I think of this band. I remember watching Rurouni Kenshin, the Japanese action film based on the manga of the same name. As the credits started rolling, a powerful song came on — “The Beginning.” I was instantly hooked. It wasn’t until later that I realized the song was by One OK Rock, and that they had…

New year, new job, new cuisine. This year, I’m learning Italian cuisine. I’ve studied it before, but this time I’m diving much deeper—and trust me, I’m already loving every part of it. After coming home from my shifts, I find myself rambling to my siblings about everything I’ve learned: the different pastas, sauces, and pizzas I’ve been making. I’m pretty sure everyone is tired of hearing me…

Lately, my mum has been gently (read: firmly) reminding me that it’s time to plan this year’s Christmas menu. So over the weekend, during one of those rare quiet moments I finally asked her what she wanted. Then I added what I felt like cooking… and just like that, a full menu appeared.Honestly, I already know I’m going to regret the workload on Christmas Day but the food will be worth it. Back…

The year is slowly wrapping up and honestly, I haven’t watched as many movies or series as I usually do – blame time, life, and the fact that adulthood is basically chores on repeat. But with the few I managed to squeeze in, some really stood out. So if I had to pick my top watches of 2025, here are the ones that made the list: 1. Korean Drama – Study Group Episodes: 10Director: Lee Jang…

Hidden GemI discovered Carlie Hanson in the most unexpected way. A friend of mine posted a short clip on WhatsApp of a girl singing. When I asked about the song and the singer, she didn’t know either. My curiosity couldn’t let it go, so I hummed the tune, typed in the few lyrics I caught, and that’s how I found WYA by Carlie Hanson. View this post on Instagram Carlie Hanson – WYA Artist: Carlie…

Are You a People Pleaser?They say a people pleaser is someone who prioritizes the needs of others above their own. Saying “no” doesn’t exist in their vocabulary. They crave approval and fear conflict, so they give their best to everyone — even when it costs them their happiness.Song: People PleaserArtist: Henry MoodieYear: 2025Album: Mood SwingsIn this song, Henry Moodie perfectly captures the…

Déjà vu – we all know this feeling too well (or at least most of us have heard of it). That strange, sensation that whispers:I’ve been here before, I’ve seen you before or have we met? I’ve lived through this exact moment before.It’s that fleeting familiarity that hits out of nowhere – a blur you can’t quite place. You know it’s familiar, but you have no idea when or where you’ve seen it before.…
