P-chan's messy head
This book is 110 years old and more relevant than anything I’ve read recently. I read this 600-page Bildungsroman within three months and did not want it to end. There is no joy in finishing one book after the other when you can savour the protagonist’s experiences slowly, and that’s when you’re fully invested in Read More …
It feels good to listen to music that you love. Working all week with chill lo-fi in the background helps keep you in that regular work bubble without associating anything else with it. The last thing you want is your favourite music running while working. It’s interesting how certain types of music connect our thoughts Read More …
There is nothing worth reporting in this current phase of life except that all is stagnant. The last thing I want is to catch up with friends or acquaintances and talk about how nothing has changed. Deep connections were either never there in the first place, or they faded due to people changing, different life Read More …
Sun Square Mars—How do you navigate the suffocating emotions towards productive and creative outlets when you don’t have the means to recharge?

Most human interaction is surface-level, and it makes me want to cry sometimes. Not many people enjoy bonding Read More …
It is funny and weird that I stumbled across someone who is currently doing the same master’s degree as I did in 2010—same class, same tutor. Of course, it had me reminiscing about that time. But what bothers me the most about all that is realising how fast ten years can pass and how soon Read More …
[*includes some spoilers*] The trailer had me judge the series too soon. Seeing masked men in red and a bunch of people wearing green tracksuits just didn’t strike me as interesting. In fact, movies like Hunger Games, Battle Royal, The Purge, Hostel, Would You Rather, and other stuff went through my head, and I Read More …
I had a nightmare last night where I was in a dark place. All I could see were skeleton demons flying around and then towards me. I was fortunate enough to have friends with me–protective friends. I was shaking in terror. Those flying creatures tried to tell me something, but I refused to listen. Some Read More …
I smoke. Secretly. I still encounter people who say smoking is harmful. They tell me of all people. A pack of cigarettes lasts me a month. How many things do I have to do secretly without being judged? How long will I have to hide the real me from people? Maybe I’m everybody’s clown. No, Read More …
I swear to God that I will get a gun. For the apocalypse.
