1. I care, a lot in fact too much that it governs my life, about what others think of me.
2. I am a highly sensitive person.
3. I like it that I dont spend much during the mco. The savings looks like a big achievement to me.
4. I always want to protect or fix other people because :
- I don't know what I want
- I don't dare to pursue what I want
- I want to project a better image of myself to others
- but sometimes I do genuinely care about others, how they feel and how my words and action will impact them
5. My children bring out the best and worst in me and my husband.
6. Swimming 3x a week helps to improve my health. I want to continue this habit for as long as I can.
7. Writing helps to heal what hurt me in the past.
8. Books are still my trusted mentors.
9. I stopped piano lessons when I was 14. At 41, I started learning to play the cello. I gained much joy from practicing everyday. Something I would never have experienced with the piano back then. It's amazing that I can see my improvement day after day. Sometimes even after the nth time practising the same bars in single practice. I would never have imagined that one day the most-said phrase to myself during each practice would be : Let's try again.
10. I expect my life to be perfect. Or should I say I feel safer if my life is in certain condition eg. if my family members behaved that way, things at work were happening this way etc.. Life is shit sometimes. And happiness is not the most important thing.
11. Sleep is very important. When I sleep past 1am, I am close to a zombie tbe next day.
12. Growing old is a priviledge, denied to many. It's only when you realise you may not live long enough to celebrate your 50th or 60th birthday that you realise having the chance to grow old is a precious gift.
13. Park Hae Jin is the coolest korean man alive now. Man-to-Man is my favourite Korean drama to date.
14. Love Generation is my favourite Japanese drama to date. If I had watched it when it was first aired, I wont appreciate it so much.
