Woke up this morning and as usual, scrolled through my Facebook feed over breakfast. My heart skipped a beat when I read the news. Chester Bennington, lead vocalist of my long-time favourite band Linkin Park, was found hanged in his home in Beverley Hills from an apparent suicide. He was only 41. I don’t usually…
Hey guys! I feel like I haven’t been posting as much as I’d like to since coming back from Japan. Mostly it’s coz I’ve had so much sht to do, and when I did have free time I was just bumming around without any motivation to blog. :/ I actually have to work on my…
Hey guys! I’m off on another adventure again: this time to the region of Chubu, Japan! Will update more on the trip soon. :) xoxo Eris C
Throughout the last week of April, I was working from home because my office was undergoing renovation. Came back to work recently to a refurbished space! The previous layout was a little messy, with cubicle seats that separated everyone and had us facing different directions. Boss consulted a fengshui master, and he suggested that we…
That old ‘friend’ of mine is back again. Anxiety. She’s a bitch. She makes my heart palpitate, she keeps me awake at night, and at times she leaves me feeling nauseous. She impedes my interaction with people and hampers my day-to-day life. I had an attack before I went for my Redang trip. I was…
When I was younger, I used to think it funny when my mum took some of the nice baths and soaps from hotels we stayed at. Now that I’m older… I find myself getting into ‘auntie’ mode. Catch is, I only kidnap the prettiest bath products. :P The soaps at the bottom are bought and…
Hey guys! So I’m back from Aus and I had a great time! Too much food and wine has taken its toll on me though (such a first world problem D:) and I fell sick on the last day – no thanks to Melbourne’s crazy weather that went from a mild 20+C to a freezing…
Water. The bringer of life. Most of us who live in cities never stop to think about how precious this commodity is; simply because it magically appears every time we turn on the tap. In an ideal world, everyone should have clean water as a basic right to survival – but that isn’t the case.…
Hey guys! I have some very exciting news! I got an article published on BBC! Yep, that BBC. It’s a writeup on the stigma against dark skin in Malaysia. You can view it here: IS THAT AWESOME OR WHAT? Sorry I’m shouting; I’m just so excited :D Granted, that was published like a week ago…
A breather from updating about Taiwan! Got a call from C over the weekend while I was still recuperating from staying up late gaming: C: Ey woman, can help me paint my house? Me: What? C: Paint my house. Me: Okay sure. I find it rather funny that other girls usually ask their girlfriends to…
So recently my company had a DISC ‘training’ – on understanding our personal working styles and how we can work with others better. I’ve previously taken the Myers-Briggs test (I fall somewhere between an INTJ and an INTP – apparently quite rare among females! Must explain why I’m antisocial with my female peers lol). While…
I was driving to KL yesterday for an event and while making my way down a road, this large Toyota Vellfire came out of a junction at breakneck speed. I was going straight and had the right of way, so when I saw him speeding towards my side I tried to brake, but it was…
