  • Kissing 2017 Goodbye!

    It’s the last day of 2017. Time really flies. As I’m writing this, it’s 20:30 here in Bangkok. I wanted to put something down before the new year begins. 2017 was a mix of good and bad. I started the year with an eight-day trip to Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand. The trip…

  • I Am Responsible for My Own Happiness

    People often ask me how and why I can do things by myself most of the time. They wonder if I’m truly happy or secretly lonely. The answer is simple. I’m happy. Of course, there are moments when I feel lonely. I’m human. But I understand my situation, and I accept it. I’m building the…

  • Dating Nightmare Stories

    It’s Halloween, so instead of something sweet and romantic, let’s talk about dating nightmares. After two long posts in the past couple of weeks, I’ll keep this one shorter. I’m going to share two dating experiences from my twenties that still make me laugh today. First story. Twenty-something me agreed to meet a Scottish guy…

  • Try it, Feel it, Love it with Ricola.

    Vegetables and herbs are definitely not my friends. In fact, I think herbs taste just as bad as vegetables! A few weeks ago, I was invited to join a Ricola Influencer Event in Bangkok. Ricola is a Swiss herbal candy brand. Before deciding whether to attend the event, I thought I should try the product…

  • Let’s get #SoCosmo!

    About 10 years ago, I started watching a TV series called Ugly Betty. It inspired me in so many ways. One of the biggest ones? The idea of working in the magazine industry. That show motivated me to start blogging and practice different skills. I don’t really read many magazines. The only one I used…

  • Thirty and Thriving!

    Whew! The past few months have been so busy with work and my relationship. It’s been a little hard trying to balance everything at the same time, but I think I’m getting better at it. So here I am, finally back to writing again. I turned 30 last month. Such a great birthday. My boyfriend…

  • My social media confessions

    Whenever I’m alone, I’m usually glued to my phone, scrolling through social media. No one has ever told me to stop paying attention to it, though. I do think it’s rude to be on the phone all the time when I’m with family or friends. I wouldn’t like it if someone did that to me.…

  • I haven’t had time to do much lately except work, eat, and sleep… repeat. I’ve been so busy with work since the end of July that I can’t even remember when I last wrote a blog post here. This week, I finally took a week off to relax and catch up on personal stuff —…

  • How music saved my life

    I just watched Begin Again for the second time tonight. The first time was last Saturday. Honestly, I knew nothing about this movie. I hadn’t even seen the trailer. I just spotted the poster and thought, “Why not?” I’m not going to write too much about the plot, because I don’t want to spoil it…

  • 2 AM Shampoo Crisis

    I came back from my Singapore trip about two weeks ago. After a few hours of relaxing at home, I decided to take a shower around 2 AM. Everything was fine until I started washing my hair. Suddenly, the water began running slower… and slower… I panicked and tried to rinse the shampoo out, but…
