The Tales of Carmensakura

A song popped up in my playlist today. It was a Japanese song and I just vibe with it.  I just felt the song and it just hits me deep.  When I look up the lyrics, it will hit me even harder because the lyrics is always something that will cement the feeling further. As if what I felt when I first heard it, I only got the shallow part of it. So the lyrics will be deeper part and it'll just let me sink into the feelings further. I know people listen to foreign music all the time. Maybe other people feel this way too.  I wouldn't say I vibe with all Japanese songs. But if it's a foreign song and I vibe with it without understanding it, most likely, it'll be a Japanese song. Other than that, every time I find out what the lyrics are and I'll listen to it with the lyrics in hand. For some reason, I find the way the Japanese expression through music quite poetic. I'll like how they say it. I'll also like how they paint a picture or a story with it. I wonder if I j

As you can tell from the previous post, I bought a MacBook Pro and it has arrived. I'm actually typing this from it, just to test the typing experience because everyone has mentioned the love for the keyboard. But this is not about that. Maybe I'll do a review once I got to use this laptop more. This is about me being an apple fan. I know that I love apple products but I always thought the love was just for the iPhone. Years ago, Steve Jobs put out the iPhone and I was one of the people who saw that and went wow, I love that. I want that. But of course, I never got an iPhone until quite late. That doesn't really matter though. To be honest, when I really think about it, I'm not quite sure what pushed me into getting the MacBook Pro either.  I was thinking about getting a new laptop anyway because the laptop that I was using was definitely just pissing me off. I mean, it was lagging a lot. The laptop wasn't even that old but because of it's pretty bad lag, I didn

To be honest, although I studied Economics as my major, I don't exactly have the best mentality when it comes to money sometimes. It's something that I really struggled with. I know for a fact that money is a tool. It won't give me happiness but at the same time, not having it, I know it will definitely make my life hard because I need to live.  Personally, I flip flop between saving as much as possible to #YOLO and hence spending a fair bit.  The saving as much as possible was good for my bank account. But I have to admit that I felt a little jealous at times when I see people spending and enjoying their life. Because I want that but to keep the saving that I wanted, I couldn't do that. So it did feel restrictive. To be honest, I spent one year, just spending on necessities which was food and rent. It was hard but I managed. But to be fair, my first job salary wasn't exactly the best so even after food and rent, the amount I managed to save was just meh. But it was
