It's amazing that three weeks have passed and I'm now back in KL. Am I excited to be back? Definitely not! On one hand, I miss being home and on the other, I don't like to be back dealing with domestic issues.The best times of the vacation were spent in Hakone since it was my first experience in a Japanese ryokan. It felt nice to be treated and pampered like a queen. If you are ever thinking of st
I drew this while sitting on a comfy chair on a pleasant day before Thanksgiving in my mom's front yard. Surprisingly, there are still lots of leaves on these trees some of which are still very green. Seems like the leaves are staying on the trees longer.

“I called you in hopes we could still be friends, please don't tear me apart for the things I did back then.” The pleasure of this song is the conversational tone of the lyric.

He doesn’t try to be arty about it, just humble

The challenge is in excerpting an aesthetic value from a context which is appa

The Fall has arrived in many parts of the country. This means apple cider, pumpkin pie, acorn squash, cooler weather and, of course, thousands of falling leaves.

Now that I am an adult, I have grown to love the season of fall. The air becomes more clear and crisp. The leaves turn into beautiful colors.
