Is this why no matter how much you eat during exam weeks (my case; instant noodles, PBJ sandwich, chips and that mouth watering traditional nasi goreng), you just cannot gain a pound?

Brainy Moments
Whoa! Who knew... Despite it accounts for only 2% of a person’s weight or about 1.4 kilograms, the brain consumes 20% of the body’s energy!

Beer in many languages
I am a gin and tonic girl, no doubt about it. Enough to make it as one of the 'must haves' in the fridge aside from soy milk and coffe and cream.
But the past weeks, I have been hanging a lot (if not too often) with some of my beer-gulper fellas! I think I can deal with the taste, and how it gives you that throat freshening effect on a sizzling 32 degrees day! I am telling you Bali's been on fire as if it's trying to grill your skin!
I just found this cute map below. Dedicated to all of my friends who cannot stand a day without holding a bottle in hand. Cheers!

Another hard sea
Here we are again, my siblings and I, at one of the hardest ordeals the five if us have to face. No details to serve here but I am telling you... I was only an inch away to actually...giving up.
Luckily, giving up is never my thing, and echoing in my mind, is this quote below. My brother was here last week, and we both try to see this problem from the most logical perspective ever, resulting in one realization that everything that us as family have been through, it does mold us to the people we are now; an old strong soul.
Sweethearts, each families have different hardships and problems, but hear me out, if you are holding on to one and another, not only that the raging sea will make you a skill-full sailor, it will also shape you as a decent and thankful one, that will never brag about its ship's magnificent power (like what the captain of the Titanic did).
I am putting my foot down. My first step is being logical... the next are depending on many others, but the last one is... giving one of the biggest forgiveness ever.

Die known as....
A perfect stranger just told me this one simple line, when I babble about how I do not want to die known as a communication practitioner in hotel industry; "Maybe, you can die as a writer."
Ah, I would really like that...

Serenity Prayer, not
Oh too funny!
This is my list for Coffee:
Fix that thing at work.
Energy to run every morning at 5:45 am.
Set an earlier date for my project and to actually wrapping it in time.
My Cab Sav:
That thing at work I cannot do anything about. My fault... meh.
The fact I will never look like a supermodel anyway no matter how often I run. So, yea...
Reality that the only thing that's going to make my project progressing is if I have a glass of red in hand. Every time.
