I love all things beautiful. Who doesn’t? Yes, but I love it in a way that moves my heart and soul. I’m not talking about good looking people or cosmetics (though I appreciate them both). It’s not purely aesthetic. I’m talking about the underrated beauty that surrounds us. They makes my heart flutter and lingers …
I’ve been thinking about balance and working to achieve it, in thoughts and lifestyle. Then I was a little saddened when it seems that one can only do amazing things when one is obsessed about a certain topic. Today, I discovered that it’s not true. Multipotentialite.

“…she must be seven-and-twenty now, — a sweet age, when youth has lost its self-consciousness and become a little sobered by experience.” – Sherlock Holmes How can I not have read Arthur Conan Doyle’s works before? Haven’t enjoyed literature this much since Jane Austen and Oscar Wilde.
Last Chinese New Year, we paid a handsome fee for some not-so-fresh prawns. So we plan that we’ll go get super fresh seafood a few months before the festive season and freeze them. If kept properly, seafood should last for three months. I’ve read somewhere that frozen food can even be kept indefinitely! I remember eating …
I normally read before I go to bed. Recently, I’ve completed 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami and starting on Sherlock Holmes. Well, ‘reading’ is inaccurate as I’m listening to it on Audible.
