  • Upcoming Semi-Silent Retreat – at home

    Although I am due to post some full write-ups of my trip to Mongolia with my mother, I thought that I would post at least something just to get myself back into the swing of things. Time goes so quickly that I was shocked πŸ™€ and dramatically dismayed 😫 to see that my last post…

  • Another Year

    Tomorrow marks my 43rd birthday. In Korea, I guess I would be 44 as they count the nine months of gestation as the first year of life. I generally don’t enjoy celebrating or making a big fuss of my birthday (except for the big ones), but I never say no to a good party. πŸ˜‰…

  • The Neutral Zone

    I feel anxious. I feel happy. I feel old. I feel in love. I feel tired. I feel loved. I feel alone. I feel content. I feel stressed. I feel vibrant. I feel worried. I feel joyful. I feel bored. I feel peaceful. How can I feel all these things at once? The minimizing answer…

  • _Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide_ by Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark

    _Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide_ by Karen Kilgariff & Georgia Hardstark So about two years ago, I posted about the podcast My Favorite Murder with these two ladies. In the three years’ time that they have been entertaining me (and many others), they have enjoyed a successful growth with live…

  • Higher Vibrations

    Although there were many interesting points that I gleaned from listening to Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide, one of the most salient ones that has stayed with me is about low and high vibrations. Karen Kilgariff tells an anecdote about when she was catching up with her friend whom she…

  • Reheating My Tea

    Although I’m not a sharer of quotes nor do I like to speak in quotes as I’ve written before, I do have some favorite ones to give me perspective on life. One of my favorites is by Marcus Aurelius in his Meditations. Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. My modern interpretation of this is…

  • Developing Routines

    So, it’s been a few days since my last post. It was intentional to be honest. When someone posts all the time or when something becomes too available, the tendency is for complacency and over saturation to occur. Therefore, as I consider how to build readership, but also make sure I have enough content, I…

  • Skillz

    My current position in my job allows me to stay out of the classroom for the most part. I still teach a few regular private lessons for our clients, but most of the time I pass on classroom teaching gigs. One of the reasons is that teaching to our clients can require us/me to travel…

  • Graduations

    β€˜Tis the season of celebrations πŸŽ‰. Back in my day (yep, old people saying…), graduations were for major achievements like finishing high school or the amazing feat of university. These were not necessarily benchmarks that everyone would achieve; thus, warranting a celebration. Nowadays, I see posts for graduations from kindergarten and every minor achievement reached.…

  • Maintaining the habit…

    Work has been busy this week, and so the evenings, when I usually write something here from my phone, have been more about relaxing or doing things other than writing. However, I do not want to get out of the habit of posting, so today I shall ramble a bit rather than write with focus.…
