Tell us about your first day at something — your first day of school, first day of work, first day living on your own, first day blogging, first day as a parent, whatever. This was supposed to be part of my writing prompts series and was supposed to be up on Oct 29th but I…

Dec 17: You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch
What is your least favorite personal quality in others? Extra points for sharing your least favorite personal quality in yourself. My least favorite personal quality is neutrality and passiveness. I always live by this quote, “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.” I get that you’re not going to have an opinion…
Nov 20: Safety first
Share the story of a time you felt unsafe. I can remember two things right now. I like travelling by myself and while I enjoy it, there are times when I did feel unsafe. Maybe it was just my paranoia but honestly, when you are a woman, this is a normal feeling. The first one…

When you’re away from home, what person, thing, or place do you miss the most? I don’t miss home at all. Is that bad? LOL. Well, I spend most of the year at home so when I’m traveling, I just don’t miss it. I always dread the day that I need to go back home….

Sept 19: Are you being served?
What’s the most dreadful or wonderful experience you’ve ever had as a customer? The first thing that popped into my head as a wonderful experience was during our trip to Fukuoka in 2018. My friend, Celine, and I have been doing these birthday trips every November for a few years now. So during this trip,…
Sept 18: Naked, with black socks
Are you comfortable in front of people, or does the idea of public speaking make you want to hide in the bathroom? Why? I hate public speaking. I just hate the idea of being in the middle of the room where there are people listening to me and looking at every move I am making….
Sept 12: Toy story
What was your favorite plaything as a child? Do you see any connection between your life now and your favorite childhood toy? Just like most girls, I played with Barbie dolls. They were a staple toy for girls and I got them as presents from my parents. I was lucky enough to have about 4…
