one of those days
It’s another Thursday. A part of me would look forward to the weekend, but half of it shall be spent for work. At an out-of-town event, which is reason to celebrate, right?
Could be my hunger.

Good afternoon. Can you all hear me?
I wrote this speech, this address, myself, I’ve spent 48 hours trying to find the perfect thing to say. My address to you today is called “The Prime Rib of America.”
I do, solemnly swear, or affirm, that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies foreign and domestic, and I will bear true faith...

Westerners are always writing about the fascinating culture of india, japan, malaysia, etc…
But there should be more easterners talking about how odd the other side of the world can be.
Those writers are everywhere. Say hello to the world’s best call center agents and immigrants: the Filipinos and Indians. ;)

Shopaholic minus the credit card
That’s me.
So today, I visited a friend and we just chilled at her house.
I stumble across a cute black dress on one of her sofas.
“Hey Kits, whose is this?”
“Oh that’s my mom’s. She’s selling it!”

Here’s a look at 20 reasons to date a writer:

Flowery descriptions of everything great about you will be shared on special occasions. See my recent post on things to write someone for Valentine’s Day for an idea of what you...

tired
I’m so tired. So tired of feeling like I’m chasing a train, begging to get on to feel like I’m getting somewhere, or to at least, know what needs to be done will pull through.
