Reading

I began March with David Nicholls' Starter for Ten, which, by the feel of it, is probably not going to stick with me for the rest of the month. So I decided to start The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin, which I just picked up yesterday despite having four other books in my reading queue. I feel ashamed for being this way, but sometimes, it really just depends on your reading category mood.

Writing
is still as elusive as it was to me 10 years ago. I usually laugh at myself and ask if I will ever find my writing voice, and why am I so persistent for thinking that it exists somewhere, to begin with.

Listening
to the whirring sound of the electric fan, barking of the dogs and roaring motors of tricycles in the street.

Thinking

I have been thinking a lot about almost everything recently. From should I sell some of my film cameras? To how far long should I hang on to my day job? To how do I squeeze in photography in a daily basis and what should be my strategy? The things I ask myself should bother me, because it only does involve me. Phew.

Smelling
the black, thick, grease dripping from the engine, waiting to be set in motion for another Monday morning.

Wishing
I wish I do have the same urgency when I am trying to figure out things in my life as to how I can help other people with what I have already figured out for myself. Basically, just to be less engrossed on the details of my own life and really realize that the world is HUGE and there are far more important things that needs to be overanalyzed.

Hoping
to be more present and be mindful, especially with my relationships to people.

Wearing
Oversized shirt and boxers.

Loving
My bestfriend gave me a Mighty Bright book light which will change and add up to the whole reading experience! ♥

Wanting
more quiet, free time to actually write (and not just mind-scribbling all the thoughts on a train ride). Also, to shoot more, if not exclusively with, black and white film.

Needing
Long days and nights of mind-boggling, life-figuring, conversations.

Feeling
Tenderly :)

Clicking
Agoda smart deals :D
