Being happy on your own

"Sometimes you just have to create your own sunshine."

One day, we feel that other people just don't get us. Hence, we are unhappy. 

Another day, those that we expect can make us happy disappoint us. We are unhappy, once again. 

Is our happiness supposed to be based on such flimsy sources?

Happy are those who realise that they can be happy on their own. 

Happy on your own

Doing laundry near midnight

I thought I can move on from this weird habit of doing my laundry at midnight after I graduated from university. But now, at 11pm (Singapore time), I have just finished loading my laundry into the washing machine. And hence, I must stay awake for the next one hour to wait for that machine to spin spin rinse rinse to clean my clothes. To be honest with you, I'd rather do everything around midnight if that minimise my chance of meeting (and hence exchanging words) people outside my bedroom. [Fyi, I am renting a room and hence, staying with my landlord/lady]. Hooray, antisocial lifestyle!

Why "pretty" is the best trait of a game's main character?

Welcome to the wonder of role-playing-games (or in short, RPG). My friend has to brag about the upcoming Final Fantasy game for PS4 and here I am, without the console (and the money to buy the console), sulking on the corner of the room. *sob* While waiting for the raining cash from heaven, I am reminiscing my school-days where I spent most of my time role-playing different RPG characters in front of my old  retro telly. Now that I'm grown up (in age but not at heart apparently since I still get all jelly from my friend's FF post), I do wonder what makes role-playing the main character of RPG so exciting? Square Enix (the producer of Final Fantasy series) said that pretty emo teens are the magic RPG formula. Well I don't disagree with them as my beloved RPG main characters are Cloud Strife (FFVII) and Squall Leonheart (FFVIII). Tidus (FFX) is also pretty and young but he's not emo enough. #fangirlmode Are they your high-school crush too? =P

Because birthday cake is too mainstream

I had a weird random early celebration of my birthday this year. On the last day of Lunar New Year holiday back home in Jakarta, my mum and I spent our lunch together at Sushi Tei, one of popular Japanese restaurant chain in Indonesia (full details here ). And the waitress asked us if there's anyone having a birthday this month. I, happened to have one. And after all our orders have arrived, they surprised us with...A BIRTHDAY SUSHI ROLL. Kudos to Sushi Tei for their creative customer service. XD
