At home, for the longest time I’ve been known as the one that always slept in. The one who got out of bed in the middle of the day. The one who exchanged breakfast for an extra hour or two of sleep.
Not anymore.
In fact, nowadays, I’m actually the first one up on weekends.… (read more)
Liz‘s post the other day made me realize that I don’t know. Why do I blog? It’s something I’ve never really thought about.
I know I love blogging. I just don’t know why I love it so much.
You could say that this hobby of mine originated from several of my earlier ones.… (read more)
I hope I’m not alone here in saying that I feel weird giving compliments. Even when I feel like I want to, I hesitate. I don’t know why I have such a hard time doing this. I just do.
I love receiving compliments. Everyone does. Just one compliment is possibly enough to double my self-esteem.… (read more)

Mind Reading
For the longest time, I thought this was the superpower I wanted, but, honestly, I don’t think I’d be able to take it, self-esteem-wise.… (read more)
I don’t know how many times I’ve said this in the last few posts, but I’ve been reading a lot lately. It’s insane. I’ve also mentioned once or twice that I’m not good at writing endings. Apparently, I’m no good reading them either.
Every time I finish a book, my stomach starts feeling weird because I’m just that annoyed.… (read more)
I never really make new year’s resolutions simply because they’re hard to keep; everything usually goes okay, up until the end of January. By then, I start giving up, realizing I can’t keep it up for much longer. This year I’m suddenly inspired to try a bit harder, seeing how much I’ve changed (for the better) last 2010.… (read more)
