I'm no Wondergirl.
I’m feeling a slight bout of blue varnished by the rain that amplifies and intensifies all dreary thought.
Life’s good. It really is. I just finished FYP, I have an amazing job. I meet amazing people. CNY is in a couple of days. My cousins are back. He’s back.
I know this is strange and I might be coming too hard on myself but I feel tired and I crave a hug really bad. Not...

psychotherapy:
Successful women know only too well that in any male-dominated profession, we often find ourselves at a distinct disadvantage. We are routinely underestimated, underutilized, and even underpaid. Studies show that women need to perform at extraordinarily high levels, just to appear moderately competent compared to our male coworkers.
But in my experience, smart and talented...
Things that hurt...
krismon-ddisk:
Being unsure of how someone feels about you.
Feeling like they are mad at you.
Being misunderstood by people you care about.
Being judged by people you care about.
Feeling like you lost something that was never yours.
Feeling like you’re doing too much.
Thinking you aren’t doing enough.
Not knowing if you should say something.
Worried about what they’ll think if you do...

Creativity determines sexual success, research... →
psychotherapy:
The more creative a person is, the more sexual partners they are likely to have, according to a pioneering study which could explain the behaviour of notorious womanisers such as poets Lord Byron and Dylan Thomas.
The research, by the University of Newcastle upon Tyne and the Open University in the UK, found that professional artists and poets have around twice as many sexual...

Burnout Syndrome.
This is my brink I’m reaching. I wish this few weeks will fly by. Things will miraculously turn out well like they always do. For now, I smell smoke.

Legs and Love.
I really like this set. Makes me kinda wish my wedding photos would have a segment like that. Haha sexy, sweet and adorable all at once. I love how this set sells the jeans through a story. One that actually tugs on your heartstrings =)

Kiss and tell.
Haha a post that has been inspired by the Washington Post article that was also featured in the ST. The power and allure of the liplock!
I don’t know what you all think about kisses but I love them. I think they are the sexiest yet sweetest thing that 2 people in love can do. Am I a good kisser then, some may ask… Well, I’m ok I guess… Not too wet and I have rather decent...

I remember having a conversation like this with my dad. My dad said that lamas apparently meditate to the point where they do not fear death. Death becomes more like a rite of passage. And apparently they burst into flames and their souls ascend to...

I _______ you.
I have no idea why my mind is going into narcotic addict withdrawal mode… I should have a better control of this. I’m being reduced to a whiny, lovesick, teenage kid going emo.
Maybe cause i’ve taken for granted that I’d always see your message everyday… Every time I pick up my phone, I text you with little hesitation. Even though I may not be the most punctual of...

The face of social media
I’m addicted to facebook. I probably receive as many facebook messages as text messages on my phone everyday. And my phone vibrates at every friend request or notification. So it’s pretty much impossible for me not to see a request or bypass your message. But, I admit, I intentionally ignore some if not most messages from people I don’t really know.
It’s not that...
