Slice of Weekend I had to get up early. I made an appointment to get my car checked and make sure it maintains its peak performance. I had to do it on a Saturday else, I'd need to ask for a day off from the office and that will be a deduction to the leaves I am saving up for some possible vacation. Anticipating one at least. The thing is, if I am going to be attended to early, that means I'd be roaming around the area early, to without much establishments opened yet. I have…
Just Flow And so to break the silence, I decided to revisit the prompter that I learned from master kudo kudo, The Most Dangerous Random Prompt Generator , and I got this for a prompt: https://www.squibler.io/random-prompt-generator Still a chicken with taking up the five-minute timed writing, I will go as usual. Or not quite the usual. How do you tackle a prompt? Like I always tell myself, every thing around us is a prompt. It is only a matter of interest to us, writers,…
A nose thing *Have you ever had that moment when you are in the middle of a conversation and you wanted to say something, you open your mouth and then thought about it and decided you don't want to speak after all so you shut it and continue listening instead or let the silence linger?* That is me for every single time I tap "Write Article" for the past few days after my latest article.

Spoil Yourself ... every once in a while, that is. .. and only according to how you can do it without getting yourself loaded and burdened with lots of payables after.

In this reels and Y.O.L.O and "I deserve this" culture and trend, it is hard not to be blinded by how someone else's capability influences us to think that *that* *is…
Buzzing in my Dreams Bees are a recent fascination. Months back, though, I would cringe at seeing bees. In the garden, they trigger my flight response but the one with "pause, count to five and hope the flying object will not come near you, then run" type of flight. I run just in time before I feel the urge to pee. So when I am inside the house and safe, I go straight to the wash room. Though even while I am typing this, I am opening google searches of the type of bees, the…
Clutter Goes Digital Aiming to live the minimalist lifestyle takes extra effort on the "effort" and "will" to live it. Read that again. It is not a brain maze but a reality. When I skim through the social media and see posts of super tidy and clean living rooms, tidy desks, minimalist this, minimalist that, a group of my conscious and sane self always says, "I am going to do that to my room!" *But that rallying voices quiet down the moment I close the application.* Fact.…
