I Tried Wearing a Hijab (sort of)
I have always been fascinated by women wearing Hijab. I have been curious as to how to wear it, how does it feel to wear it and how would I look like if I would wear it.

Lately, I have not been writing a lot. Not that I am lazy. Not that I’m demotivated. Being busy is also not an excuse. I was just happy lately. And I am wondering why I can’t put into words this happy feeling. I’m wondering why I can write a lot even during my busiest of times…

One By One They All Leave
Two weeks ago, a colleague of mine left the island for good. She did not renew her contract with our company and just went back home to China. We weren’t really very close friends but she’s one of my favorite colleagues. We used to swim and snorkel together. She’s one funny girl. A bit naive…

The Struggle of Having a Non-instagram-husband
Behind every cute girl on Instagram is an #Instagramhusband or #Instagramboyfriend. My struggle is real here. For one thing I’m not cute; for another, my husband is not an #instagramhusband.

On Being Chased
Yesterday, I’ve read an article called My Body Doesn’t Belong To You, where the author shared her story of being harassed on the road, probably because of her huge cup size. I suddenly remembered how I was teased back in 6th grade because of having very small boobs (something very opposite to the author’s issue).…

I Want to be a Housewife
Today as I browse my facebook feed, I saw a post of a high school classmate about her lumpiang shanghai (spring rolls) with a status that goes along this line, it’s difficult to wrap a lumpia. She used to be an Accountant in a big fast food chain till she got pregnant. From her pregnancy till…

4 Things that Made Me So Annoyed Today
I was so busy over the last few days, or weeks, maybe. I don’t know how long I have been having late nights. Being busy is fine, really. It keeps me up to beat, it makes me sharp. However, being busy with my job doesn’t mean I will be exempted from annoying people, things and…

The Ants
Let’s ask someone to spray the ants away, said my office mate when I immediately cut him off. No! I semi-screamed as if he had said something forbidden, unlawful and illegal. As if he wanted to harm the ants and I am the sole protector of all ant-kind. They will go away by themselves, let…

I’m Lazy Today. Don’t Tell My Boss.
I woke up today 10 minutes earlier than the time in which my alarm is bound to disturb my sleeping roommate. I closed my eyes again and waited for the forthcoming disturbance. When it finally broke the silence of the dim room, I pressed the ‘x’ button on my phone, shut my eyes again and…

In Case I Don’t Come Back
Today I’ll start a journey. I’ll follow a road led by my heart; I will go where it takes me. My journey might take some time, a day or forever and this, I will tell you. In case I don’t come back, don’t worry. I will be fine and so will you. My heart will take…

Novel Attempt
I’ve always wanted to write my own novel but, always, after reaching about 10,000 words, or even less, I’d stop. I’d think its too tiring to continue and reach at least 50,000 words to complete the thing. I visited my NaNoWriMo account and checked my 2014 ‘trial novel’ which only reached 6,000 plus words. I looked at the…
