About Me

I like being happy and I can totally hold a conversation about how to be happy on a spiritual note if you're keen but I do note that that might bore you. I guess happiness requires a lot of love for yourself and a good quote from one of my professors is that "Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.” This, I find very meaningful. Ok, moving on.

Also, I loveeeeee food. I love the whole process from doing groceries to cooking and down to eating. Maybe not washing but I guess we will just have to embrace it. I find it so satisfying preparing exactly what you want to eat and being able to create that. Yumzzz

Other than that, I also like to live my life in full and try the different things in life. Won't know what you're missing until you try it right? ^^ Always up for a challenge!!!
