Ever since I’ve moved house earlier this year, I’ve had the opportunity to see another part of life I had never previously seen. I now live next to a military base that is also open to the public. Cars pass through in and out to get to the main road on the other side of…

The other day I read a very interesting article in the New York Times entitled “Go Easy on Yourself, a New Wave of Research Urges.” It talks about how those who have more self-compassion are often happier, more optimistic and have less anxiety. I think so too. People are often hard on themselves, wanting to…

If you are a member of my facebook page, you probably already saw some photos I’ve posted from this morning’s Cancer Care Charity Fun Run. This is my second time running the 5K and the first time I did it alone without Alex motivating me on. I have to say it wasn’t easy considering I…

Adjectives are a funny thing. We use it to describe things, objects and people that surround us. It is something we do almost unconsciously and so I have lately noticed how adjectives used to describe one changes. For a very long time, I was always described as “chubby” by those who know me.

I get to meet friends, catch up over lovely meals accompanied by weather that is nice and cool in winter. It doesn’t snow in Thailand, but the temperature drops to the mid-twenties (celsius). It’s lovely and cool. …

With the holiday season knocking at the door, it is always a challenge to keep fit and healthy. To maintain one’s weight during the year is not so easy for most of us, let alone maintaining one’s weight during the holiday season! All that turkey and holiday parties are extremely deterimental to one’s waistline. So today I…

It’s a day after the run, and although I only did 5K somehow my legs are still sore. It must have been the way I “tiptoe” run or perhaps I’m just not used to so much running. Funny though, even with sore legs, the exhiliration from the run still lingers on. I’m still very much stress…
