Alright, this week’s blog post is gonna be short and sweet. Yes, it’s about something that I seldom share on my blog but I feel that I MUST share this love lesson to save women, especially those in their early twenties and who are single. One day, I had a great conversation with a highly intelligent man. We talked about many things and at one point we discussed relationships. Since I’m single, I playfully asked if he could introduce me to his friends who are single (or divorced). Alas, all of his friends are married. I guess once women reach their late twenties, some people will ask when they would…

Why You Should Fear Regret More Than Rejection
Let me ask you a question: which one is scarier – being rejected or wasting months/years feeling regret? On paper, some of you may say, “of course wasting my time regretting something I didn’t do!”, but when it comes to reality, are you sure? Last week, I got the oomph, signs, feeling – whatever you call it – to finally ask my crush out for a drink. Like, just to get to know each other.

It just happens… You can deny or mask the truth, but you can’t lie to yourself. And then, out of a sudden, this friend of mine makes a shocking confession. “Clara… I’m a crossdresser.” The Heartbreaking, Beautiful…

Cuando Me Enamoro
I love reading but when it comes to the Bible, it’s difficult for me to keep a routine reading the word of God daily. Oh, let me correct the sentence. It’s difficult for me to keep a routine reading the Bible from the beginning ’till the end. Honestly, I get lazy after a few days esp when I can’t relate the message to the modern world problem. Therefore, I feel so grateful to Nicky and Pippa Gumbel who created the Bible in One Year app! Now, I’m not a very religious person but I do believe in Him, pray and go to the church. Peace be with me when I…

What used to be a self-pampering day by single university students in Nanjing, China, has become the biggest shopping spree around the world.
