It's not too late to start again, is it?

For a long time, I've trapped myself in a cage with an open door. I thought that the cage felt comfortable so I decided not to get out from it. I told myself that it wasn't that bad. That changes today.

I'm writing again. 

It's not too late to start again, is it?



The author of this blog is plain and simple. She thinks mostly of the usual things - life, love, beauty. She enjoys the basic necessities like food, warmth, blankets, and music. She gets thrilled with the idea of an adventure but doesn't really like to go on one, unless her spontaneity kicks in. She's got a fire in her belly most days, but enjoys the leisure of being in bed at the same time. Odd. Weird. Plain. Simple. Mary Jedde. An old soul, a lifelong learner, and a flourishing human being.

Into the Blue at Adventure Cove Sentosa

It's so uncommon for me to get free tickets, but this time is different! Woohoo! (Thank you, sponsor!) 30 June 2018 - I cannot keep my excitement. It's finally tourist mode for Alex and me. We decided to meet up at Vivocity at around 10 in the morning. I arrived a little later than that. Nonetheless, we arrived at Sentosa just nicely - not a lot of people flocking the queues yet.  Here are some of our awesome fun at Adventure Cove! Our cute tickets. When we entered the gates, our bags were checked and we were asked if we brought outside food. Apparently, outside food is not allowed. We did bring, but the guy never asked us to leave it so yeah. Our first stop was a Maze. A cute concept with some simple ropes course on top of it! These "waterfalls" and random water splashing at your face when you go through this maze. A pirate ship-themed water display. We didn't go to this one just because it wasn't as interesting. (To be honest, I ...

One Last Candy and Then A Bunch

I never thought that a single candy can teach me an important life lesson. But it did, and I would like to share that story with you today. It happened one afternoon while I was in a cab. I was exhausted after a long day under the sun, working, facilitating, and running around the warm wide space of Sentosa in Singapore. I could recall feeling heavy and fatigued. It wasn't just because of the heat but also because of the challenges I had to solve that same day that drained me out. I was on my way back to the office, along with an assistant staff and the ride was not as comfortable as I would have wanted it to be. The exhaustion paired with feeling famished made my stomach growl. It was then that I remembered something that made me look forward to finding it. I had saved one last candy inside my bag! So, I searched for it sluggishly but as eagerly as I could until I found it, tucked inside one of the pockets. I took out the candy, ready to rip it open and enjoy the much-needed sugar...

The Story of the Wonky Clock

Image not mine. Source: Salvador Dali Melting Clock Digital Painting When you were born, people knew who they want you to become. Your life was set in stone. The cheers you hear were cries of the people who missed their chance in life. And you are their key to redemption. You are a fresh start for them. You are a ticket to secure their happiness.  The clock starts ticking and you begin growing up. Each time you celebrate your birthday, it is a yardstick - have you accomplished what you ought to accomplish? No? Oh, then that's bad. Suddenly, the cheers you hear turned to snickers. How come you are not as successful as that person? Why can't you do things right? You are starting to mold into a disappointment and woe to that.  What did you do wrong? All you did was live the way you want to live your life. Slowly, the sparkle in your eyes starts to dim. Waking up each day, putting on your uniform, studying, eating, laughing, going back home, sleeping - and this cycle repeats....
