Moods of the Sky

Doesn't it seem like there's a whole world that's out there to discover? We're bounded on land but we place our hopes in the skies. We look above for answers, to reflect on ourselves or maybe just to enjoy the view. Oh, what wonders we have achieved. Flying and soaring above the clouds. Exploring the…

Thoughts before flying

Considering that it has been 8 years since the last time I was on a plane, in which coincidentally, was also my first time, I have a lot of questions (which might be stupid) and doubts about going on an aeroplane. It all began last night when I found myself tossing and turning, being unable…

Life is unfair

I cannot believe my luck. I have to say that things have been pretty bad lately. First, there was the hoo-ha with this man a certain individual (that must not be named). God forbid that he sees this. And then, it was some drama with some of my coursemates and now I get to see my…

Pink elephant

I mean, come on. If you tell me not to think of the pink elephant in the room (that may or may not be wearing a tutu), I'm going to think of the pink elephant wearing a tutu. It's called the ironic process theory. Being out of place and left out isn't exactly the best feeling in…

Life all around us

I am but a feeling, a small mass of thoughts and bits of soul held together by the flesh and bones in which I am defined by the people around me. In each of us, we carry our small wonders in these transports that we place such high value and importance. Despite it not being…

The restless – a poem

Time seems to go by so slowly and yet at times so fast. With each passing second, minute and hour, There's this itch under my skin; I fidget with my fingers and my hands tapping my feet and shaking my legs   A sense of anticipation builds inside, I can barely breathe with shallow breaths,…

I’ll be honest

I am not perfect nor am I happy all the time. Social media gives me a lot of pressure to hide the ugly parts of myself and to only showcase the ups of my life. Those picture perfect moments. Only happy things and never the bad. I wondered if I should do that when it…

To swear or not to swear?

I have been debating with myself about whether I should stop swearing. It's a bad habit of mine. Well, at least some people think so. I'm still on the fence on this one. Maybe because I'm a girl? So I'm not supposed to swear? A lot of people have this preconception of girls where we're…

Pigeon #67

Everyday I see you from my window. Hopping around the rooftop. Chatting with your fellow bird friends. I wonder if you have a mate or even a bestfriend. I'd like to think that you have enough food to eat because you are the fattest among your friends. I hope that you share your food with…

Time for Zen

It's been a tough few weeks. Having to finish my thesis in the middle of all these exams have really been stressing me out. The lack of sleep and relaxation has been killing me slowly. I do have some quick go-to routines or activities that I find soothing and relaxing. It's hard to find the…
