If Somebody Doesn't Like You, Don't Take It Personally
Unfortunately, we live in an unfair world. There are "good apples" and "bad apples", and some of them we just can't pick out and throw away. On this planet, we work, go to school, attend recreational programs, shop, do errands and other activities that require continuous interaction. Although some of the what we call "bad apples" can't always be left out and discarded, some of them can be! In personal relationships, we choose who we want in our "jars of people" and we often keep and store the "good ones in our jars". In professional relationships, we don't always pick and choose who we want in our "jars of people". For example, we don't get to choose our teachers in school, no matter how we view them. We have to learn to tolerate them and accept them for who they are. Over time, we get better at dealing with them.

We Search For Our Own Light
We search for our light in such dark tunnels we enter and walk through. No matter the amount of darkness we notice, there's always light in each section of the tunnel. Each direction is different; some ways are bright and colorful as paradise, some ways are black and gory as unlit attics. We search for our light in such dark tunnels we enter and walk through. Even if we don't notice the light we have right away, we'll notice it at one point. Sometimes we find it now, sometimes we find it at the end. It doesn't matter when we've found our light. What matters is that we found the lit part of the tunnels we entered.

My Bubble Is Mine, Not Yours
My bubble is not yours, it's my private area. You're not permitted to enter my bubble without seeking permission first. Like knocking before you enter my bedroom, you ask before entering my personal bubble. Like asking before entering someones home, you ask before touching me. My bubble is not yours, it's my own place to hibernate in. If I say, "don't come in", you exit my bubble immediately.

It's Never Too Late To Download And Play This Fantastic Puzzle Game Based On America's Favourite Game Show
Since the pandemic started, I've been addicted to a variety of digital puzzle games. Puzzle games were not just pleasurable activities that I got back into doing, but also a great way for me to forget about all the negativity that occurred. Some days I didn't want to use my physical puzzle books, so I would download puzzle games that consisted of cute animations, colours, shapes and music in the background.

My Dream Destination: Scotland
I became a huge fan of the Scottish romantic-comedy movie Gregory's Girl (1981) when I was only 7 years old. Asides from Gregory’s Girl and my love for British culture being the main sources of travel inspiration, I have other reasons why I wish to visit Scotland one day; I have Scottish ancestry and my grandmother is Scottish. I enjoyed spending time in England so much that I eventually discovered other possible vacation destinations in the United Kingdom like Scotland.
