A journey.
My last post summarized my feelings about the many transitions I've had this year and just being really glad to have gotten to the end of the school year. But I've also had friends and family ask, What's it like living in Thailand? For starters, covid is still coviding and although many countries are opening… Continue reading The Living Part
When I moved to Myanmar, I brought with me a single pack of Poptarts. Ironically when I left to come to Thailand, I brought with me a single pack of Poptarts.I have no regrets about my emergency food stashes!I wanted to live in Thailand, or at the very least visit the country since probably 2016.… Continue reading Living In Thailand
Things you can do when worry has you in a hold.
Short version: nothing. No, but for real, I didn't. It's been a hot minute since I felt the mental freedom to write. The year feels like it's on velocity mode and yet the days felt twice as long when the events of Feb. 1 took place.

My friends and I would have an early morning breakfast gathering for around $2… Continue reading Eating Out VS Cooking at Home
...because what is the alternative? I'm trying to not let the weight of all that's going on lead to another year of not writing. This is just a hobby but getting my consistency back up in this area will lead (in theory) to building my consistency across other habits I need to get back into.… Continue reading Pushing Through Tough Times…
Short answer: Yes. Longer story... Last year I fell all the way off. My vision board goal was to read 40 books for the year. Pandemic. The previous year I started writing reviews which you can check out by looking at posts in that category. And then in my usual consistently inconsistent ways, I fell… Continue reading Books: Are We Reading This Year or Nah?
These old drafts really seemed to have some decent ideas of mine. Last year... The great Buddy Hield, a Bahamian basketball player in the NBA just recently won a 3-point shoot off competition. In many of his interviews he finds some way to shout-out The Bahamas and every time he does, it brings a smile… Continue reading Why Representation Matters
