I was on Instagram and I saw a girl about to bungee jump. She was suited up, in her harness and all she had to do was jump. She started to cry, changed her mind and wanted to quit. Her sister was cool and calm and tried to encourage her. She was probably anxious too… Continue reading 20/24 Vision

The Treadmill
A treadmill is a machine you find in a gym. You press a few buttons and this conveyor belt-like-thing rotates and you have to walk/jog/run so that you don’t fall. I recently got onto a treadmill. Not for the first time, but for the first time in a long time. It was moving, I was… Continue reading The Treadmill
Part 1: Bragging Rights, Your Brand
"Porsche" is pronounced: POOR-SHA "Louis Vuitton" is pronounced: LOO-EE-VWEE-TAHN But you knew that right? So tell me this, if people can learn how to pronounce any of the above, then what’s stopping them from pronouncing your VERY ethnic name, correctly? If you carry yourself like a brand, you will be respected and recognized as such.… Continue reading Part 1: Bragging Rights, Your Brand
The Honeymoon Phase: If and When
I feel life is divided into two categories. When something happens and If something happens. Despite of this obvious fact, both chances bring forward uncertainty. Giving us anxiety. Now, I am very… not worrisome per se… but I seem to “dwell” on the outcomes of certain things. After the honeymoon phase, the stage where anything… Continue reading The Honeymoon Phase: If and When

It worked well though! I mean… we got the event recorded. So yeah, hire me. The conference was 9 hours long… Continue reading “Do You Want to Switch?”
Suggested for You
You know whenever you scroll on Facebook and you find a random post that has you wondering which one of your “friends” posted it, and it is simply entitled “suggested for you”? The weirdest part is when the post has NOTHING to do with your interests, but because your trends have created this pattern that… Continue reading Suggested for You
Dear Us,
I was in doubt of who I was and what I had to offer for the longest time. It was hard to open up to anybody because well, the society I grew up in did not make time for sensitive matters. If you are not studying, then you are working. My self-insecurity drove me to… Continue reading Dear Us,
Site for Sore Eyes (Pun Intended)
If you have been broken before, then you know what pieces make you strong. Let me say that again but differently. If you, YES YOU, have been broken before, then you know which pieces to rebuild from. My parents were into construction. So growing up, I was always on one site or another, involuntarily inhaling… Continue reading Site for Sore Eyes (Pun Intended)
[Insert Name Here]
Our name does not necessarily single us out from the crowd because there can be 2000 other people with the same name in the same area as you. A bit of an exaggeration, but not unlikely. A name is just an arrangement of letters that someone saw fit to call you by. Well, at least that is… Continue reading [Insert Name Here]
