18:47 | q u a r a n t h i n g s Staying at home got me into painting. I love playing and mixing colours and creating random images. mornings are super chill. Getting up after 10AM most days and extra cuddle sessions with my dog are just great. I also made chocolate-dipped madeleines. so happy I was finally able to find a madeleine pan in the store. going back to (online) school in a few weeks so trying to enjoys the last few moments of freedom…

A super chill day. Needed some fresh air today so went to the nearby forest park in the neighbourhood. Took a short walk while practicing social distancing, of course. There weren't a lot of people anyway so it’s good. From where I live, a full lockdown isn't enforced since people are doing their part to protect themselves and others. Local news have been reporting that we’ve been doing a great job flattening the curve.
Good and simple things are enough to make me happy these days. Super grateful that my fam and I are staying healthy and still able to work.
Feeling Blessed.

22:48 | the good things I find myself appreciating the little things more than before. Our plant family is growing and our house is becoming greener and prettier each day. The sun is shining brightly everyday making us and our plants happy. My best friend delivered homemade cheesecake which was awesome btw. I thought that was really sweet. The gesture and the cheesecake. Exactly a year ago, I was on my flight to Prague for a study abroad program. Today, I took the time to meditate out my patio, closed my eyes and pretended I was in Prague. The weather from a year ago and today’s felt the same. I was able to feel like I was in Prague for a few minutes, sitting by the cafe near our dorm, sipping iced coffee with my roomie, breathing in the same cool breeze. I hope I don’t forget to appreciate the good little things like these even when everything starts to become normal again.
I’m back...
it’s been a while since I’ve opened this account and the reason why was mostly because I’ve been hard core ‘adulting’ lol I’ve finally found the time to sit down and look at this blog since I’ve been staying home most days now because of the virus. I’m done my undergrad and what took most of time (before self-isolating at home) were working part-time, volunteering and doing private tutoring.
A lot of things happened during the time I was away. ~my dog passed away (still very much hurts my heart) ~family adopted a new dog. ~finally approved for grad (ceremony this June!) ~passed DELF exam ~finished application for teaching certificate and waiting for results (going back to school) ~etc...
I never thought I’d say this but I kinda miss school now. If things go as planned and I get accepted for the program this September, I’m pretty sure I’d be taking those words back lol.
2020 has been super crazy. I planned a grad trip for this spring but had to cancel everything because of this whole chaotic situation. I was really disappointed at first but I realized I needed to slow down. I thought that I could use this time to reflect on more important things like relationships, be grateful for the things that I’m able to still have like food and other basic necessities, a job, a healthy body. Not everyone is fortunate enough to still get a hold of these things. Even in this time, I’m still blessed.
I hope everyone is safe and healthy! Stay at home as much as you can and take this time to maybe learn something new - maybe a new language or a new skill that you can use when things get better in the world, I know it will. Maybe not tomorrow, or next week, but it will. Let’s hang in there guys :)
anyone else on the verge of going insane trying to get refunds from cancelled flights? cuz I am.
