I was having a conversation with my best friend a few weeks ago, and the topic of happiness came up.
This whole conversation really got me thinking about the idea of chasing happiness and how we are all so incredibly caught up with the notion of running a rat race trying to get to this ideal Funland where all our dreams come true, where we would have everything we want and we would be HAPPY.

About three Wednesdays ago, my mum called me around 8pm, just as I finished preparing my dinner.
Ever since I went back home for CNY, I knew that my old dog at home, Tee Tee, was not doing so well in terms of his health. So whenever I see a call from my parents, it always makes me feel anxious.

But here I am, in front of my laptop, typing away about something so opposite, which is the list of books I read in 2017. So if you are not into books, you can skip this post as it is as literal as the title states. On the contrary, if you are a bookworm, here goes!

I find myself running here again when I am in need of a little headspace. So here I am.
When was the last time you went out to fight for something, with all that you have within you, because you really truly believe in it?
Be it in terms of your career or personal development, learning something new, or even going after something you like; are you willing to fight hard, despite all the naysayers, the doubts and obstacles; and still go headstrong with it?
