    When a Coffee-Shop Song Made My Day

    June 28, 2015
    Music

    Last week, I was sitting in a coffee shop when a song started playing. Of course, I pulled out my SONY phone and opened the Track ID app to find out what it was. Turns out, it was Dear Future Husband by Meghan Trainor. I fell in love with the tune instantly. It has such…

    Diary

    As much as people think I look like an innocent girl, that doesn’t mean I actually am. Last time I wrote about where I got my dating tips from. This time, I’m writing about dating sites in Thailand, since I’ve been on and off them for almost a decade. The first site I ever joined…

    Confessions of a Woman Who Tried a Dating Coach

    Diary

    In 2013, I stumbled upon a video blog by a guy on YouTube. His content was mostly about dating tips, and I kept watching video after video on his channel. At that time, I had been single for six years, so I was curious to see what he had to offer. The first step I…

    I was born and raised in Bangkok, and I have lived here all my life. Even though I am Thai, I absolutely hate working in Thai companies. I have worked for Thai companies twice, and I swear I will never set foot in one again. Here is why: 1. HolidaysYou cannot take more than three…

    Fifty Shades of Confessions: What I Really Thought

    March 1, 2015
    Movie

    Okay, I’ll admit it. I saw Fifty Shades of Grey twice. I never read the book, so I can’t compare the movie to it. I know many people made a big deal about the erotic parts, but to me, the film showed much more than that. Christian Grey is smart, thoughtful, and sexy. And by…

    Yes or No, Please: Why I’m Done Waiting on Friends

    Diary

    Have you ever had to wait for your friend to make a decision about going somewhere or doing something together? ALL. THE. TIME. So many times, I’ve asked my friends to go out or do something, and the answer I got was always “unsure.” I think people are afraid something better might come along, or…

    How I Learned Khmer Without Even Trying

    Topic suggested by @KhonFaring from Twitter. My parents were born in the provinces in the northeast of Thailand near the Cambodia border. They met in Bangkok, got married, and have been living in the Charoen Krung area since before I was born. They can both speak Northern Khmer (which I’ll just call Khmer here). I can only…

    Why Christmas Means So Much to Me

    Education

    If my calculation is correct, I was probably in grade 5 in 1996. Around Christmas time, my English teacher, Khru Warin, prepared special lessons for us about Christmas. I loved it because we got to sing Christmas songs, enjoy snacks, and exchange small gifts. That class also made me fall in love with learning English.…

    Diary

    A girl once told me she met a nice guy on Tinder and they ended up in a serious relationship. OK, I was curious! So I joined Tinder in April. I stayed on the app for a few months and even ran a little experiment for a week. For anyone who doesn’t know: swipe right…

    Movie

    “I knew you loved me and that you’d do anything for me. And that was one of the reasons it hurt so much when you ended it, Dawson. Because I knew even then how rare that kind of love is. Only the luckiest people get to experience it at all”  That’s a quote from Nicholas…
