Stomach Bug or Food Poisoning?

1 month ago, for day 307 by cat ✨

I stepped out of the cab and collapsed in bed at half past eight. I might've mumbled a "I think I got food poisoning" to someone on the way to my room, but the last thought I had before falling into a deep sleep was "I should really take some...

Fleabag Sisters*

1 month ago, for day 302 by cat ✨

It dawned on me yesterday that despite all the healing, self-love and meditation, that I somehow continue to make excuses for my family. For my mother and father, not so much anymore — I can recognise their passive aggression and moods and take them for what they are, but for...

The Buzz, Potsdam and Other Connections

1 month ago, for day 300 by cat ✨

During my meditation today, an unusual thing happened. It's not out of the ordinary to hear the ambient noises around me, but they're usually from a distance. I listen out for the whirring of the air conditioner, or sounds and voices coming from the other rooms in the house, but...

Camels and Tethering Tourists

1 month ago, for day 285 by cat ✨

My friends are giving me a hard time right now. I remembered my writing deadline and so I had asked to tether from one of them. So here so I am. We're in the middle of the desert and doing some touristy things like camel hunting, visiting ghost towns and...

Bangkok Blues

2 months ago, for day 281 by cat ✨

I'm in Bangkok for a two-hour stop over. Please indulge me for a moment but the last time I was here, I was parting ways with my last long-term partner. Ed, who is Latvian, but lived in London had flown out to my side of the world to meet me...

Downton Abbey

2 months ago, for day 269 by cat ✨

Is it just my group of friends and I ? But we love attempting to speak with a British accent. Our favourite is the posh classy boarding school one. The Queen's English. This obsession goes way back to high school, when we were such geeks over Harry Potter. I think...

Dharma not Drama

That Peach Scone track is still on repeat this morning as I type this. It may seem I have a goal of memorising it, which is so much harder to do when this kind of effort has stopped being a habit. The Lost Art of Memorisation and Remembering. The reason...

RIP Daniel Johnston

2 months ago, for day 264 by cat ✨

Fan-girling all over Midsommar director, Ari Aster's Twitter led me to learn of Daniel Johnston's passing. I'm only now absorbing this piece of news. One thing I feel especially lucky about is how former loves have really opened my world to the discovery of things. Of new music, authors, works...

Midsommar

2 months ago, for day 263 by cat ✨

Contains spoilers to the film "Midsommer" In college, the only organisation I committed to being a part of was the Loyola Film Circle (LFC), an organisation for film geeks and nerds. Two people I knew from that that organisation moved out here to Singapore a couple...

True Sorrows

2 months ago, for day 262 by cat ✨

"I know it's just a book. but it's a damned good book," I shared in a chat with two really close friends last night. I used to have such a hard time needing people, but these past few years I've been so conscious of my feelings that I can gauge...
