One of my New Year’s resolutions this year is to read 6 books. Thought I should start a list. And I lied about the “6 books” things, because I’m going to list more than 6. But yeah, I do have a problem with buying books so… Books I already have on my shelves that I really should read: Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson I think Steve Jobs was a genius. I guess you can call me …

A glance forward to 2017: Let’s plan and get these resolutions started, shall we?
Resolutions, so easy to make yet so hard to keep for the next 12 months. But if there’s anything I’m consistent at, it is in making these New Year’s resolutions year after year after year… Yep, ever since this blog started, I’ve been posting my resolutions here. But even before then, in my older blogs or in my head or on a piece of paper somewhere, I was very adamant in making resolutions. I guess failure doesn’t impact …
A look back at 2016: Let’s reflect on a wonderful year in Tokyo!
This year has gone by way too quickly, and here I am at the end of 2016 wondering why I didn’t do enough of this and that. But hey, you really can only move forward in this thing called life, so we just have to keep moving on and stuff right?! But before I move on to 2017, let’s take a step back and have a peek at the year 2016… Revisiting 2016 resolutions So …
Reflection 2014 & Resolution 2015: Continue with what I’ve started
I sometimes find, and I am sure you know the feeling, that I simply have too many thoughts and memories crammed into my mind. At these times, I use the Pensieve. One simply siphons the excess thoughts from one’s mind, pours them into the basin, and examines them at one’s leisure. – Albus Dumbledore This blog is obviously my Pensieve. Wow 2014 sure flew past so quickly, I barely even had the chance to reflect much and… …
Half way through 2014
It is a little distressing at times to look back and reflect on what you have done (or have not done). I had a chat with a friend over the weekend about how fast time flies this year. It’s mid year already. We are now through to the second half of 2014. In World Cup term (because of course my life currently revolves around the world football tournament), I think my life right now is …
Here comes the 2013 resolutions…
I know some people just don’t do new year’s resolutions. “Why make a list when you’re not going to keep it anyway?” And I know what they mean. For example, I’ve been telling myself that I want to live healthier for years now… That is: do some exercise, eat more vegetables and have a healthy sleep pattern. I’ve probably achieved the latter by now – after having this resolution year after year for the last …
Let’s start planning for 2013
One thing I love about the new year is that I can plan for things afresh. It’s as if I could give my life a fresh start and everything is going to be different (at least it feels that way.) The most exciting thing about the new year is having to use a new diary planner. I have been contemplating if I should go paperless this year, but when my awesome friend bought me a Kikki.K …
