Highlights
I got a new job in a company where I want to work. Hence I have been busy with the whole new job-what-this saga. If you follow my Instagram, you might have known about it already since I have been posting pictures of new coffee shops I have been trying on my morning commute.
I started cooking! One of my 2020 goals is to master 20 dishes. So far, I have made 13 dishes and only failed twice. I am pretty proud of this “achievement” and recently realized that cooking relaxes me even when I have to do it in my almost non-existence kitchen. Only seven more dishes to go to tick off this goal. Any suggestions on what should I cook next?
Another of my 2020 goals is to use the second-hand film camera I scored on eBay more. Not only more but better because I am happy with how some pictures turned out; I agree with Fafa, who said that it’s an expensive hobby to adopt if I don’t know how to work with it.
Loving and Currently
Premium Youtube is one of the best investments I made last year. Before, when a Youtuber addressed me as a “friend” on the screen, I would smirk and close the tab so fast before they said, “Please subscribe”. But not working for a couple of months turned some of them into my friends.
I watched You and Ghost Stories on Netflix. LOVED both! I am reading Chinglish and Kenduri; both are boring so I might abandon them.
Kulture Kween and Other Internet Findings
I wrote about my 6th Japan trip, finding a similar souvenir cup in Takasaki and Bergen, eating delicious Soba, the significance of the Lion Dance in Chinese Culture and my latest obsession: Eki Stamp (Japanese train stamp).
Meanwhile, on the internet: Tokyo’s poorest neighbourhood in pictures ♥
Thank You Next!
I am celebrating my friend’s 30th birthday with seven of her other friends in a winery in Yarra Valley next week and feeling uber excited about that.
This Time Last Year
My best friend and I visited Cabramatta, the Vietnamese culture hub in Sydney, Australia. Check out last year’s blog posts if you want to read more.
