Car Song
My car just god damn nearly exploded (exaggeration) and I literally just got out of a conversation with my older brother about it because I know jack about cars.
This is how that conversation went:
Brother: So… it happened the moment you switched off the engine? Me: Yup. Brother: How was the temperature? Me: Moderate. If it overheated, I definitely didn’t see it. The air-conditioning...
Talk
This was a few weeks ago when I was happier still, walking and sauntering in and out of alleys between tiny shops inside a mall in Brunei. I was walking with a few friends searching for God-knows-what when sat on the floor next to an entrance of a shop were two little boys around the age of six wearing school uniforms.
They were kind of adorable. One had a bowl cut, which was kind of funny...

Pain
There are two ways to really feel pain:
By voluntarily or asking someone else (or not asking, perhaps, or just being a general dick to get someone else to do it by their own will) to punch you repeatedly where your bones can break, causing damage to your internal organ, and later throwing you down a cliff. This scenario is somewhat far-fetched, but you survive the fall—kind of like how you...

The Fault in our Stars
I just finished The Fault in Our Stars. After reading it, I just lied down in a fetal position and hugged the book thinking about death, and how I want death to keep away from my cancer-walking loved one but only realising that for two years now, I have been denying the idea that death has been walking amongst us always; erected from the ground and prepared to attack its next victim.
All death is...

What is my life
A couple of months ago, I went to a TEDx talk. A few months before that, I headed to Florida for LeakyCon. Two years previous to that, I went to San Diego for Comic-Con and a week before that, I was in San Francisco for Azkatraz, a Harry Potter symposium.
My older brother, knowing I’ve done all this, told me, “What is your life? All these things you’ve done. Who in Brunei does...

Cancer
I just watched 50/50, and I’m in enough pool of emotion to write this properly.
I don’t talk about my dad’s cancer because it was such a low point in my life when it all started in 2009. I don’t like when I have to explain about it for the first time because I choke and falter when I have to describe it. I’m almost crying just typing this (never mind, I’m...
