Yes, SHINee is back. Before you start wondering when and why I suddenly became a KPop fan, let me tell you it is a long story that developed in just a few weeks. Will definitely share more about that soon. Meanwhile, let's enjoy this SHINee comeback teaser "Marry You." Marry You Live Performance SHINee recently held a digital event entitled "The Ringtone" and at the end of the show, they performed one of the songs from their 7th album. Baby Cheese Taemin has been hinting about this song and some viewers even guessed the title during the broadcast. It has been weeks since I first watched this and yes, I do watch it at least once day. The song is not yet available on Spotify but will be online soon. Watch their performance and tell me you were as enthralled as I am. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GG9hPKwmeYo This is such a nice song. A bit slow but definitely a good showcase for the vocals of all four. And their styling in this performance is just impeccable. Key always be serving. (Do not miss his Allure feature on turning 30 and his views on femininity and masculinity. ) Marry You is the so-called "Side…

Dear Love 02/22
Dear Love, It has been a long time. I have been meaning to write for weeks now but I always forgot to do so. Not because I have no reason to share but, well, because I have been too preoccupied. And I have also started journaling. My entries are mostly short and not as profound as I would like them to be. I often write about an hour before I sleep. So I am usually sleepy or tired. I am still undecided about how I should proceed with journaling. Should I just do as I do now and write about whatever my thoughts are at the end of the day? Or should I try to be more creative? I do want to try to do creativity exercises but I am still unsure about that. My days have been long and productive since January 1. But the past week has been hard. Nothing bad happened. Nothing big really. I was just exhausted. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. I did not plan to rest or take a break but I slept late on Monday because of F1 and was happy to see that I had coincidentally scheduled Tuesday as rest day. And I…
Coffee and Tea Time Playlist
Good day! How has your week been? I have mentioned that Coffee Time is my favorite part of my Morning Routine. And one of the reasons I love this part of my day is my own Coffee Playlist. The playlist is entitled with the Coffee and Tea emojis on Spotify. I just like it that way. Anyway, I thought of sharing the playlist and how I created it. Creating a Coffee Playlist This playlist did not actually start as a "Coffee Playlist." Initially, I wanted to make a playlist of two of my favorite French songs, La View en Rose and La Mer. I included Lanca Perfume and added a few other French, Italian, and Spanish which had a mellow but upbeat vibe. It was mostly jazz and bossa nova songs. It was originally titled "Of Roses and the Sea." https://open.spotify.com/track/3lAun9V0YdTlCSIEXPvfsY?si=xPbRRxXnQPWA4ue6RWqSeg https://open.spotify.com/track/2ZeHwwyO4hRMKYk5L1uke6?si=gv0YZyNaS262VNiDkWwy5Q https://open.spotify.com/track/3cijWAljXxxJDco4N2aLQl?si=mVA1xxz3To-l-RfHhSNEPQ I listened to this playlist often and kept on adding songs as suggested by Spotify. Eventually, I realized it actually gave me cafe vibes. It was the perfect playlist while having coffee or tea, any time of the day. So I sought to add more songs that were not just French, Italian, or Spanish. Adding some Asian…
How I Start My Day [Morning Routine]
Good day! How has your January been so far? Mine has been interesting. It has been almost a month and I am now confident to share with you my morning routine. For the first time in a long time, I had nowhere to go on New Year's Eve. I was not feeling too well but I wanted to do something. A few hours before midnight, I decided to act as if it was just an ordinary day and do as I would like to do the rest of the year. 2021 started off with a hearty meal which I ate at around 12 midnight. After eating, I proceeded with the routine that I wanted to follow the rest of the year. I followed this routine for a few days and decided to consult a Physical Therapist / Trainer to make sure it is a healthy routine. More importantly, I wanted to know if it would help me in achieving my fitness goals. She suggested some adjustments and I have so far been enjoying my "mornings" better. Note the quotation marks on "mornings" since I do not always wake up in the morning. Simply put, this is how I start my…
