Ironic

I'm sorry for being gone for so long without posting anything. I was too preoccupied with unpacking, cleaning, binge-watching on some series and having little to no internet connection.

Positively blinding

First of all, I feel a little guilty because I told myself that I would post on my blog everyday and yesterday was the first time that I broke my streak. There was an exam today and I was busy cramming information into my brain. But oh well, I'll try to post everyday like I…

When things get complicated, the fight or flight instinct kicks in and my first thought is flight. I don't like getting into the middle of things. I dislike confrontation. It's very messy business isn't it? To be caught up in drama and wondering why, out of all the people here, it had to me. I…

Retrouvailles – a short story
