AS swiftly as you entered my life, you also left and here I sit with notes on notes with all things I never got to say to you. I could let the notes die a slow death – resurrecting them when I want a good cry (like last night). But what is heartbreak if not…
And Now I…
And now I…. Wish for your joy when I see a pair of magpies; Bring up your name in every conversation I have; Save cheesy poetry to share with you some day; Want to be one of the reasons you smile every day; Read your horoscope and match it to mine; Long for you on…
Life Update – Happy Panda Is Back (Maybe?)
A recent flutter of notifications from WordPress (informing me that people are still reading what I wrote years ago) reminded me that I had (or have? Is this perpetual?) a blog. Once a pride point in my life, this space has been dormant for a while now. It is not that I haven’t wanted to…
I Got Inked – My Experience, Dos, Don’ts and More (Tattoo Newbie)
After over a decade of planning, I finally got inked! It is still new and healing and I keep freaking out over something or other other, so I thought about doing a post on tattoos to help other first-timers. I think getting a tattoo is a major personal decision. While you can get your tattoo…

Weird Things I’d Pay For
It’s been a while since I wrote a weird post (or even just a post, arghhh) so I’m hoping this brings me out of my writing slump. I should start off by saying that I am fairly broke at the moment but in many situations I have thought about how I’d pay to get out…
Mission 2024: Getting Healthy (Not Lose Weight)
The second month of 2024 is upon us and as per usual, I cannot believe how fast January ran away. Despite my many aspirations for 2024, I ended up literally wasting all of January. But I am motivated to do better this month and to keep myself going, I am going to post my progress…
Female Friendships Vs Male Friendships: From A Woman’s Perspective
I have a tiny close-knit group of friends as it probably is with most people in their thirties. I no longer find the need to have a big group of friends, which was something that I yearned for through my college years and early twenties. I now prefer talking and interacting with friends with whom…
