A full week has gone by in February and here comes my first ever post for 2024. We have those moments. This blogpost is inspired by none other than My 2022, a Retrospective. On my Focus Time Compared to 2022, my Forest trees were 600 fewer, an expected result considering I stopped recording my ‘Work’…

When in Japan: Overcoming the Language Barrier
A huge shout-out to my father-in-law who sponsored the trip for us! Our Japan adventure only lasted for two fun-filled weeks but it’s enough for me to gauge my proficiency. My assessment had been rather different when studying by myself and just watching animes and listening to music. As expected, immersing myself in real-life situations…
Series: When in Japan
Together with my husband’s family, I went to and stayed in Japan for thirteen days. A huge shout-out to my father-in-law who sponsored the trip for us!

What I chose for my 2023 Digital Planner
This post is quite late but I’d rather post it late than let it sit with the other I-should-have-posted-these-drafts in my folder of regrets.

Recalibration: Setting my 10-year Goals
The beginning of the year often signals a reset for many people so a number of us are prone to creating resolutions we aim to abide by (at least in the first three months of the year) or goals that we want to achieve. This behavior subjects us to the marketing strategies of journal and…
My 2022, a Retrospective
After rigorously choosing the items I am willing to share in this cyberspace, here is how my 2022 went: On my Focus Time According to Forest App, or to be more accurate, according to how often I remembered to trigger the application as I went with my activities, I had a good amount of focus…
Blogging Prompts (resources and links) that will hopefully help me get out of my mental funk
I’m recovering from a mental slump. As much as it pains me to say, I’m suffering from the divergence of my personal goals from my professional ones. It was easier said than done when I wrote this post on passion and strengths. Getting overwhelmed by a series of projects taught me that I also needed…
