What is a great flow? What should come after something? Imagine life as a carefully curated playlist. I was listening to one of my own playlists; songs chosen not for their tempo or typical radio appeal, but because they said something that resonated. After listening for a while, the order of the songs just made…

Okay… this is probably a TMI post, but follow me… I’m getting somewhere. Today, I ran the farthest I’ve ever run – 24 km. It was long and hard, but I did it. After the run, I was about to get on a train home… because, for some reason, I’d rather run in a straight…

Just under a year ago, I wore aligners for the first time. The plan was 20 weeks. But, of course, it took longer—I had to stay on some trays for extra time. At the end of that period, there were still a few things that needed fixing. Waited a few weeks for a new set.…

At the gym today, I noticed something. Everyone’s always on their phones. Between sets, between reps, sometimes just sitting there. I wonder—how much time does it actually take them to get things done? If gyms charged by time spent instead of memberships, would they be losing money? Probably. Anyway. There’s something interesting about how certain…

No one would guess I’m taking about food. Also, two posts in one day? It’s my lucky day. I’m only just realizing how much I understand the world and myself through metaphors. It’s not new; I’ve done it for years, but it has only just clicked. To explain situations, Didi would always find a parallel.…

I’ve seen jokes about people having a CV for dating; so when they get into the talking stage, they can just hand it over. But this weekend, I realized something: if you leave pockets of your life experiences and thoughts in different forms, especially ones that require little external validation, you create a crash course…

December wasn’t my most consistent month—not by a long shot. The blog? Barely touched it. Running? My legs had other ideas and kept giving up on me. It’s funny because November ended on a high note with my longest run yet—15k at a ~6:10 pace. I was feeling good, but December had other plans. Travels…

This post is coming a week late, but better late than never! I’ve been running almost daily since July, and it’s funny how committed I’ve become. I’m pretty happy that, as I get older, I’m entering this phase where I pick up something and really stick with it. Today, I felt like writing about it…

One thing I haven’t been consistent with is writing on this blog. But on to the reason for this post.  I’m on my 10th week of aligners. 50% done! And I’ve been pretty consistent with wearing it for more than 22 hours a day. It’s wild because I was scared. Scared that I wouldn’t be…

Weird title, I know but I begun wearing aligners today. It doesn’t hurt, but it’s a tad uncomfortable. Life is filled with uncomfortable moments. Why have I willingly chosen to add to it for the next 5 months? I have one tooth shooting to God knows where and I can’t let that happen. I grew…
