Here are five secrets that make me who I am today. Though I am not a perfect human beings I happy with what I am good at:
1. Listening and Sympathizing: I am skilled at listening and understanding people’s emotions and feelings, offering sympathy and support.
2. Storytelling: I excel in storytelling, engaging others with narratives that captivate their interest.
3. Smiling and Laughing: People often mention that I have an infectious laughing style, and I am adept at smiling and bringing positivity to situations.
4. Dealing with Children and Young People: I am effective in dealing with children and young people, easily capturing their attention without much struggle.
5. Sleeping: I humorously refer to myself as a “sleep monster.” I am exceptionally good at sleeping, and can do so without much difficulty. But I can’t do my day without good proper sleep unlike others I requires sleep for at least 7 hours in a day.
And that’s about it! Shall I continue with the list? If so, I fear I may float up to cloud nine, so I’ll remain ever grateful to Earth. Haha!

Greedy little heart!

What is one thing you would change about yourself?
View all responses

The one thing I would like to change about myself is to be more outgoing and smarter. Even though I am aware that I should be more people-oriented, most of the time I prefer staying inside the room rather than being among the crowd. This is mainly because I am least interested in unfamiliar talk or mere gossip. I don’t enjoy hearing others’ stories and socializing with them.

I feel that I should be smarter in life in many ways; I sometimes feel like I lack intelligence. To achieve this, I know I need to be more outgoing and learn about what’s going on in society beyond just depending on news and social media updates. Yeah, that’s one aspect I wish I could change in life. Though I know there’s a lot to change and a lot more I long for in life. Haha, human wants are unlimited; forgive me for that. Can I add one more thing? I wish I were more of a risk-taker, and I wish I knew more about financial knowledge. Hmmmmm, the list seems to be going on and on without stopping, so let me end it here for today. Forgive my greedy heart. Haha!

Nocturnal

Daily writing prompt
Are you more of a night or morning person?
View all responses

Hmm, I am definitely a night person. I can stay up all night and remain active, but when morning comes, I feel like a zombie. My energy gets a boost once the sun sets, and when it’s time for rest, I become more active. My thought process also seems to work better during the night than in the morning. They say, “early birds catch the worm,” and it is true. However, I cannot seem to cultivate this habit; it has long disappeared since my Bachelor’s studies. Hence, I am more of a nocturnal person rather than an early riser. :))

Best food

If you are uncomfortable with discussions about eating meat or the process of obtaining it, feel free to skip this part. I’ll be sharing some insights into my food habits today.

As a non-vegetarian, I enjoy eating meat at least once or twice a week. My preference leans towards chicken and fish, as I find them more appealing than other types of meat. While I occasionally consume meat from the jungle, chicken and fish remain my top choices.

Duck or turkey meat is considered a luxury for me, and I don’t have the opportunity to indulge in them frequently. Additionally, I personally find their taste not comparable to that of chicken or fish.

However, I do experience a sense of guilt when animals, particularly those familiar to me or considered as pets, are involved. If an animal were my pet, I would hesitate to consume it. This sentiment is one reason why I avoid keeping pets, as I find it emotionally challenging to let them go.

This sensitivity extends to my friendships as well. I am selective about who I accept as a friend, as I struggle with the idea of letting people go from my life, much like my sentiments towards pets.

While I enjoy eating meat and exploring different cooking styles, I prefer sticking to familiar options and may be hesitant to try unfamiliar dishes.

Space for my cultural attire

I am the kind of person who loves to wear the same dress repeatedly. I have this peculiar obsession with getting the most wear out of my favorite dress, even though I have other outfits in my wardrobe. Due to this preference, I’ve cut down my expenses on dresses, as I find myself rarely wearing the ones I own.

While I don’t own any limited edition, branded, or expensive clothing, I take great joy in wearing my traditional dresses whenever the opportunity arises. I love flaunting them and taking pride in showcasing my cultural attire. Even though I don’t get many chances to wear them, I still make a point to carry them with me wherever I go. I’m more than willing to allocate space for them in my packed luggage bag. Hehe!
