What Is It Like To Be Alone


The society that we live in today viewed the idea of being alone as something we should avoid at all costs. 

 Women who are alone, who live alone after a certain age, who aren't partnered, are pathetic. A lot of people are scared of being alone. 

 Not me, I crave for it and I love my own company. 

 I'm good at being alone, it's one of the things I like about myself. Aloneness is not only something I'm not uncomfortable with, it's something that I crave and needed on daily basis. 

 As I get older, all the crowds, hustle and bustle tend to drain my energy. 

 Although I like socializing and be with people around me, having someone to talk to, at the end of the day, I needed my alone time. 

 A time to be in my own thoughts, a time for me to recharge. 
The other day my colleague was horrified when I told her I like to go for teatimes alone in the pastry or coffee shops. 

 I like to sit and read, people watch while accompanied by a cup of tea and a slice of cake. 

 I can eat alone in the shops, I go shopping alone. In fact I do most things alone. Alone is not lonely, it is empowering and rejuvenating. 

 It's important to know the difference between being alone and being lonely, and they're often confused.

 Being alone makes me feel alive, comfortable and peaceful. My thoughts and imagination is the loudest when I'm alone. 

 That is when I'm more in tune to my feelings and thoughts . When I'm alone, I'm developing the most important relationship anyone could have, the relationship with yourself. 

 If you don't like your own company, how can you expect someone to like it?




"The best part about being alone is that you really don't have to answer to anybody. You do what you want" - Justin Timberlake

Sikit Lagi Mau Jadi Hulk

I always consider myself to be a mild-mannered person. Sometimes people, especially those who doesn't really know me that well said they never saw me get angry. They described me as someone cool and calm. Most of the time, i don't get angry that easy but i'm human okay, i do get angry. When i'm annoyed, angry or plain moody, only those close to me knew, especially my dear friend, Anne  I don't have to say a word, she only need to look at my face. I used to think that i have a high patience-threshold but lately, i think something shifted and lowers the threshold. Last week i find myself super irritable, angry and snapped at those who annoys me. I don't know why of all the days, those friends all choose the same day to test my patience. I'm sorry i raised my voice at you guys :p Maybe i should do yoga or something to calm myself down . Or attend anger management courses. Or something like that... Ya, i look like that when i'm angry. All o...
