I’ve been thinking about this ever since I received the message. I replied to at least choose a mix of songs (as a compromise) or just go with what he likes to make it the best representation of himself. But, I have so much more thoughts about it. 我有话要讲。I need to air these thoughts else it will just stew inside…

A Show or Book I Might Do Again
Diaryland writing prompt which I thought was worth giving a go. What is a show or book you would happily start over from the beginning? Hmmm…for show or rather, movie, I want to watch “A Walk to Remember” again coz the story is so simple and beautiful. The songs Mandy Moore sang for the movie were so iconic. And if…
I Thought I Knew All About Serizawa Reira
I went to read a character write up of Serizawa Reira. (To be honest, I own the full manga set of NANA but I didn’t complete reading it.) I thought I knew all about the character but it seems she is a lot more complex. I was somewhat right about her wretched existence, though I never really understood her seemingly…
How I Have Changed
I read some of my old blog posts last night and cringe~~~ I don’t think I had the capacity to think deeply back then or maybe I just didn’t want to. The posts were very “on the surface”, describing daily happenings. This happened first, then this happened next. I caught myself saying in a few posts that I’m generally a…
Kids and Fangirling
I’ve seen it at least three times now. A Taiwanese mum having to explain her stand with regard to her girls’ fangirling and feeling defeated each time. I gave it some thought as like her, I have two young girls and what if one day, my girls decided to fangirl as well. A bit of background information. This mum has…
Something I Look Forward To
I’ve been keeping the Diaryland Daily Prompts page open on my laptop in case I ever feel like answering a prompt and I guess today’s the day. This prompt was actually for yesterday, but I’ll answer it anyway. What is something you always look forward to, no matter how many times it happens? My birthday. It’s the day I get…
My Bias Isn’t Random?
I stumbled upon an IG post that led me to the quiz on my bias match. According to Cadena Laksis, who is a psychology graduate and relationship pattern analyst, she says that how we choose our KPop bias is not a random thing. It is something deeper that hits the core of what and who we are. This was my…
Build a House
Did this a while back. Asked ChatGPT to build a house based on what it knew about me. I must say, this is quite a luxurious home. So big! Lots of cozy corners where I can think and be myself. I really like that creative corner for content creation work and that quiet corner for reading and reflecting…and of course,…
You Are Not My Safe Space Anymore
I used to be able to tell you freely what’s on my mind… But not anymore. You are not my safe space anymore. I have to weigh my words in my mind before I tell you anything, lest you get angry. Sometimes I think it’s safe and tell you something, but end up getting yelled at instead. It’s tiring and…
Be Kind with Your Words
I’m not an ENGENE but I know the recent ongoings through threads. A Japanese fan, Mina committed suicide after being cyber bullied. Didn’t help that the idol was dragged into this mess as fans (or anti-fans?) blamed him for what happened coz he went on a live to address certain fan actions. Long story short, people linked what he said…
