Life lately: my little ways to live life with purpose
I’ve been trying to get back to the way how I wrote my stories on the blog as I did it before – super casual like just telling a story to a friend – but I think I just lost my creative juice since I started juggling my mom and work tasks. It’s true 24 hours isn’t enough for adults and it’s true trying Not that I don’t have back logs anymore (I have tons from the past year that are past due, I’m not sure if I need to post them anymore lol), but I just don’t feel like writing too much of something I can’t even do myself…

Where to get cute and classy face masks to stylize your “new normal” days
Okay, that hair is messy but yes, I’m still drawing despite my busy schedule. Congrats to me! Going back to the topic, I’ve been seeing a looot of cute selfies on social media from people flexing their every day look, their OOTDs, and of course, their stylish masks. And since I can’t travel right now (better be safe!), I’ll go for lifestyle topics that still would be helpful for my readers like Y.O.U! So in case you’re interested with my future stories, like my Facebook page to get updates! Again, back to the topic – since our usual activities are very limited due to the pandemic, people started to adjust…

Life lately: Hey there, Succies!
Months ago, I stumbled upon this post from a girl named Meryl selling her cute succulents to support her kidney transplant. So I gladly purchased six pots thinking at least I am part of her cause and her getting better. All I wanted was to help and I didn’t realize I’m going to get hooked being a so-called #plantita. All of the plants I got from Meryl already died, because apparently, succulents have different needs compared to other garden plants. Succies are low maintenance, meaning you don’t have to do anything about them (water, expose to sun, etc) every dingle day. They like being left alone for days because they’re…

Life lately: it’s NOT okay not to be okay
We always say it’s okay not to feel okay, that it’s completely normal, and that it’s a part of life, and it’s just a tiny piece of a bigger story or bigger picture. Here’s an unpopular opinion: it’s NOT okay not to be okay. What’s okay is telling your story and speaking up. But it is never okay to feel not okay. Maybe that’s one of the reasons why people don’t speak up. At least that’s one of the unending list of why I don’t tell my stories to the closest people I have. People always say it’s okay not to be okay, – I say it sometimes, too –…

Life lately: Depression during COVID
It’s too easy to be swept along by depression and anxiety these days, and knowing myself from past experiences, I’m one of those people who would easily get swept by. We’re probably just now aware, but most of the people around us are already suffering from mild depression and anxiety because of the pandemic and the results of it. My suggestion on managing depression during COVID? Get and keep yourself busy. In this article, I would like to discuss three sections of how am I doing these past few days and wrote it into more relatable and hopefully understandable post just in case someone is feeling almost like how I…
