I am a homebody ever since. For me, staying at home means comfort, coziness, solace, peace, joy, hmmmm, what else? 😅

I can lean back and chill. Stay in bed
whenever I want. Marathon viewing of 
korean drama series.

I can be myself 101%, without the fear of
being judged by others. 

I can save money. Go out for a dinner or 
movie is not cheap. No impulsive buying
or unplanned shopping too. 

I can recharge & focus on other things 
where my energy could be well utilized.

Here are the things that makes me want to stay home:

➡️ Adorable Pets

Meet our flowerhorn fish. We named them Danger, Pinkie and BLM. We also have fish babies, guess who their father is, 🤔🤔🤔😅😅😅, well no other than Danger 🐟. Yes, it is his offsprings!

I love them all! They are fun to watch. They are happy being fed - flowerhorns have really good appetite. Also, they are affectionate, just like dogs, they like to be petted.

By the way, just to give you a little background, flowerhorn fish are man-made hybrids. They are first developed in Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand. Flowerhorn fish are known for their vivid colors and protruding head called kok.

Flowerhorn fishkeeping is sometimes tedious. It requires tank cleaning, regular water changing, feeding good diet, ensuring the water temperature is consistent and ofcourse keeping them healthy and happy.

Yes, a lot of tasks in fishkeeping but they make me feel really really good. Playing with them boosts my mood. My pets give me the feeling of bliss and pleasure. 💗💗💗

➡️ Comfortable Bed

Whenever I have the luxury of time, I indulge in sleeping and not waking up early. Yeah, why not? It is not an everyday occurence, 😅. I deserved it after a week of stressful work and overtime, 😂. By doing so, I get recharged. And surely can return to work more focused and energized.

We need some "ME" time. Giving yourself a break is a good reward. It is very relaxing. That feeling very similar to Bruno Mars' Lazy song:

🎶🎶🎶Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything🎶🎶🎶🎶

Getting enough sleep has many benefits. It can boosts your immune system. It strengthens our heart. Better sleep means better mood. It can increase your productivity and perform way better. So whenever you have the chance to get more sleep, do it. You earned it. 😊💗😍

And I'm just fond of lying in my comfortable bed, with Zebbie and Peng, my two cutie stuffies. 😍💗

➡️ Marathon Viewing

Who doesn't love movies? korean dramas? youtube videos? Netflix series? 😍

During weekends or holidays, after doing all the household chores, and when it is already time to rest, I would grab the remote and turn the TV on.

Why do I love watching? Because it makes me relax. I could forget all the pressures and stresses of my life whether personal or work. It gives me the feeling of calmness by sitting down in the couch and watching TV. It is also my way of diversion. It enables me to enter a new world. A world of fantasy, romance, comedy or action.

I remember, there was this one korean drama series that I really got addicted to. That I would start watching from 5pm in the afternoon, just when I got home from work, up to until 5am the next day. I was so hooked that I never want to leave the TV. Title is "Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo." Let me share you the story plot. A 21st century woman named Hae Soo is transported back in the time of Goryeo Dynasty. Initially, she fell in love with the warm hearted and gentle 8th Prince named Wang Wook. But later on, her feelings grew and developed with the 4th Prince Wang So. Wang So is a fearsome prince who hides his face behind a mask and tagged as "wolf dog." Hae Soo was caught up in the rivalry of the princes as they fight and claim their rights for the throne to be hailed as King.

And that's what happens when I really enjoyed the story. 😅😅😅

➡️ DIY Manicure Pedicure

Getting my nails done is a stress reliever for me. It makes me happy. I pamper myself with manicure and pedicure at home. 😍😍😍

➡️ Home-Cooked Meals

Cooking meals at home has advantages. You can save money. You can avoid allergic foods or ingredients. You get to practice your cooking skills. And most importantly, you get to bond with your loved ones by cooking and sharing the prepared meal.
