About me

I used to be fascinated with this world, and then I grew to hate it. It is funny that the idea of growing old scares me, although the idea of death does not. Even so, I have grown to discover my own paths and love myself more and more each day.

Someone asked me recently, “So you really like to write? Do you want to do that for the rest of your life?” I smiled and nodded. I started to read and write when I was very young — even before my pre-school years — and I have spent more than 10,000 hours as a professional writer, so I know that I could never love anything more than I love putting my thoughts into a coherent piece of words. My love for arts, jazz and yoga probably comes next after that. In my spare time, I like watching concerts, and plays and perfecting my yoga poses towards the goal of achieving 10,000 hours of practice in order to “retire” as a student and pass on the knowledge to others.

Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you would stay around for more. If you leave me a note, I will make time to visit you in the near future and hopefully, we can be friends who exchange good stories.

Cheers,
