It’s A Birthday Eve Confession
It’s my birthday tomorrow, and I have never talked about this — not once — in my life, but…

Dante Musing: My First Bullet Journal Attempt!
Yesterday I started my first bullet journal attempt. It was a whim of the moment. It was two in the morning and I was bored. I looked at my dotted notebook and I remembered my friend’s notebook with a personalized calendar. You could say her journal was the muse. So I grabbed my colored sign pens (those were the only ones I got) and designed my first calendar! That same day, I went to National Bookstore and bought a couple more pens. Yey!
Dante Musing: Why Going to the Gym is a Big Deal for Me

When in Bangkok: Wat Arun
It’s been over a year since I last posted here so I’m coming back with the typical late photo dump! This time, it’s gonna be snippets of my week-long vacation in Bangkok last September 2017. We stayed there for seven days. Although it wasn’t my first time in Bangkok (I stayed there for half a month in 2012 for work), it was only during this vacation that I got to see a lot of the city’s major tourist spots.
