Lost in Space Self

New Year, new hope. I know a lot of you will agree. There will be resolutions waiting to be fulfilled and hopes that are being prayed upon. This entry is not going to be related with any book at all, I just want to blurt out what I'm feeling and I feel that this is the safest place I can write. 

Surely there are people who would think I am lucky, don't get me wrong I know I am but that doesn't mean I am happy. I am not happy not because I am not contented but because I feel empty. Everyday I go to work, worked on the loads of task on my desk, mingle with my colleagues, tidy my desk and go home. Check my FB, play a little with my game console, surf the net, read a little (sometimes a lot) then sleep and tomorrow will be another day.  I do this to be numb and just go on with my life and let the waves take me wherever with no goals or destination. Whatever happened to me, I don't know. I envy people who have set goals or who had planned a year or a day, because I can't even write anything on my hard earned Starbucks Planner. 
What made me this person who's numb and trying to feel no emotions? I don't know. Right now, I feel like I needed somebody to tell me what to do but then again, I know I am the author of my life, the boss of my own and therefore should know what I need and want to do. But every time I try to decide for my own it isn't the best outcome everyone would hope for. I am not getting any younger and already feeling the pressure of life, the feeling of truly knowing oneself. But here I am blogging about being lost in the journey of my so called life. 

What i know for sure, i I have to pick up myself and go on. Find something that would keep me going everyday, that would let me look for something to look forward to and wake up smiling. 
Pardon my ranting, but I needed this to get off my chest but can't tell anyone. Thanks for reading.

The Reading Challenge

At the start of the year there were two reading challenges I committed myself to The Goodreads Reading Challenge where you will decide how many books you can read for the year. The other one I got from my cousin but upon searching in Google it's a Popsugar Reading Challenge.  I must have underestimated my annual calendar because I challenged my self to red 50 books in Goodreads. I thought "50 books? Oh that's nothing, I have all the time in the world." And guess what? It's mid of November and here's my reading challenge. Apparently I didn't plan on being too busy during mid year but I'm not complaining I just didn't expect it to be like that. Still, I'm happy to I have read 25 books so far. And these are mostly YA books. What's with YA anyway? Am I old to be reading it? But that's another blog entry I suppose. I am happy to discover new authors that I will sure follow (Sarah Haas, Cassandra Rose Clarke) and the likes. With these 2...

How To Be Interesting So That Other Can Envy and Notice You

My whole 32 years of existence, ok, minus the toddler years where I don’t really care; I want to be wanted, desirable, likable and according to Google, to achieve this you must be interesting and as part of my research that’s why  I came across this book. I hunted for this book in the hope that I can get tips so I can be interesting. In the cover it says:   Rule # 1. One must be attractive .  – If you are such a good friend or sister you will tell your mates that its personality that wins. I agree, but for the others to notice you, you must be attractive or else they will not make that second look or  make an effort to get to know you thus you are not given the chance to showcase your great personality. So, yes, a nod to this rule #1. Rule #2. One must be friends with other attractive people – Ever heard of the saying “Tell me who your friends are and I tell you who you are”? Now that you’re attractive do not stop there and make friends ...

Rediscovering what sparks joy

Hi, if there's really anyone reading this blog. I kept this blog open more of a open diary and realized that writing is form of therapy for me. For all those bottled up feeling that I couldn't express. The last blog post I did was 2019 that I started a vlog in YouTube, sadly that vlog is no longer existing. I could make up excuses as to why but its really one complicated reason, which could be for another blog post. I was going to write that its been a year since I last posted but and then realized that its 2022 now, well it could be a year if we don't really count 2020.  Since moving to the States five years ago (2020 counted here), I was busy trying to make my family and I's life better, financially more or less, ok more so I was really busy with work and making more money. Unconsciously trying to fulfill the wants that I couldn't afford. In the process, I forgot what would make me happy. At the rise of tiktok I have discovered posts that intrigued my curiosity. I...
