Daily writing promptWhat job would you do for free?View all responses I can’t remember how many times I’ve heard these two words put together, almost as if they were synonymous–inseparable. Maybe they are, but I wish this job we would do for free was *actually* our job and not just a possibility given in a prompt. Alas, this is a rarity in today’s society. For someone who enjoys doing several…
Questions
I don’t know exactly what I will write about, but I do know why I need to write. Does that even make any sense? I just need to try and make sense of everything that has happened lately. I have no answers, only questions. Here they are: Why can people be so evil? How can they spout obvious lies just to stay in power? Is life not precious? Why can some people end life without fear or…

T I R E D
It’s been a while since I’ve last written anything here (What a unique way to start off this shiz. *rolleyes*). But today’s one of those days where I need to vent and just let it out. It’s the kind of day when you feel like you’re not doing anything right and that every day is a struggle to survive. Nothing to worry about (as if someone cares). I’m not talking about life in general, but work:…

Museums in May
Despite being the busiest month of the year (work-wise), I believe May, thus far, has been my favorite month. The Lebaran break gave me a chance to do some touristy things in Jakarta and foremost on my list are the museums. Started with Museum MACAN (Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara). LOVED IT! A few days later, my friend Jet came over from Bandung and we had a staycation. We basically…

April Awakening: Livin' in Pink
April Awakening: Livin’ in Pink
I’ve always associated myself with the color pink. Every time we’d have our Secret Santa come December, I always write, “anything pink” on the wishlist. For this reason, when Leni Robredo launched her campaign as Kakampink, I was quite literally tickled pink. My journey as KakamPINK is like many others. I was a semi-hater and a certified-nabudol by social media. I don’t want to go much into it…

Mundane March
I must have had no money in March because, for the life of me, it seems like I did nothing but random TikToks. Let’s face it. Our phones are now our source of primary evidence. Mine tells me that all I did was do random nonsense. Welp. Watching them now is cringe! But whatever, lemme post them so you can be annoyed as…

Fab Feb
It’s the last day of May, but I’m in the mood to continue blogging and do my February dumpage. Still haven’t found my footing yet, so Feb was a chance to finally go back and visit friends in Bandung after leaving what was like a home to me in June 2020. Chinese New Year break finally gave me the weekend I needed to maximise my stay. The traffic was horrid as it was a Friday, but the moment we…

January Dump
There’s this thing on Twitter where you throw in a bunch of photos. Well, here’s my go, but it’s more of a dumping of random thoughts, as per usual. [It’s March 15, 2022, and this post is still saved as a draft. I truly suck at this. Let me try to just recap based on photos in my cloud then.] Back to Business Naturally, January started with a trip back to Jakarta. So many friends had their…

Sleepiness
My eyes feel heavyas my fingers type away… Staring at the screen, lost in thought, I start to hear the unmistakable ticking of a clock.What is it counting down?Perhaps the last few minutes of a life well-lived.

No Words
On a whim, I checked my blog to see what it is that I last wrote. What irony that it was about how the pandemic has and will continue to change me in ways I was yet to find out. Well, the joke’s on me, I guess. Damn freakin’ CoVid took away one of the most important people in my life — my Daddy. And as I write this around almost a month later, I still can’t begin to process the pain that…

Post-pandemic Me
I wonder who we’ll all become after this pandemic. Surely we want to become better people and we want to bring all the lessons learned to make this world a truly loved home. But sometimes, I find myself feeling such a deep-seated sense of emptiness. I miss my family. I miss my home. Right now, I can’t entertain all these feelings and all I can will myself to do is survive. Thankful that we…

2021, Uh huh!
New year, same old me. That pretty much sums up how my 2021 began. I intended to write a year-ender post showing significant moments in 2020, but well, the bed was far more enticing that the thought of doing that. I wanted to do marathon of the LOTR Trilogy, which I’d done every single freakin’ year since I can’t remember, BUT, Netflix felt the more friendly alternative as I could use my…

Thoughts Amidst the Pandemic
Thoughts Amidst the Pandemic
It’s difficult these days to really know how you feel because we have, in so many ways, numbed ourselves on purpose. It’s a defense mechanism, really–one that is very much needed considering what’s happening around the world today, CoVid-19.
Many say this is the perfect time to keep journals because this is a moment in history marked by so much change that our thoughts and experiences right…

Regret
the box — an image from years ago, hidden in darkness for so long.
a rustle: shifting, unfurling, purring, unfolding — like hand over heart
to touch. a little of myself comes alive, scaring away bad memories; struggling against
all those lies, I understood nothing; I loved and lost; they were real —
now, long gone . . .

Checking In
It’s been 52 days that I have been essentially *stuck* in one place – Hidrologi in Cigadung to be exact.
I am writing this just to mark this date and, perhaps, years from now, remember what it felt like.

Small Blessings
Time moves fast these days. It’s quite a blur, in fact.
I never imagined my new school year would begin in such uneventful fashion as it has this year.
Don’t get me wrong. I am thankful that I am working and that, for the most part, I have something to keep me grounded and distracted from the current pandemic. These days, this is a blessing in itself.
Regardless of the situation, I am…
