When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it. (Paolo Coelho, “The Alchemist”) The last time my friend Justin and I hung out, he said something similar.

Mom and I both woke up late — and to set the record straight, I was even the one who woke her up. With Tuesday as coding day, there was no way we’d make it in time for the carpool so I had no choice but to commute. Everyone close to me at work knows [...]

The signs are there, but I still refuse to heed it. I keep telling everyone that I’m okay with how things are, that this beautiful dream is over and I’m not really that sad because I think I’ve collected enough memories to last me a lifetime, but even though I am vocally pessimistic, in my [...]

If there’s one valuable lesson I’ve learned from all my years of watching Korean dramas, it’s doing my best to hide my unrequited for love for someone all the way to the end.
