Just a poorly drawn carrot writing about life and stuff she cares about
Today’s Monday. Like a tremendous number of other people (and Garfield), I don’t like Mondays. It’s not even a regular Monday, it’s actually a day off. A bank holiday, as the British would call it. But still, I feel tired. To be fair, I didn’t get as much sleep over the weekend as I’d have … Continue reading Monday Struggles
About a year ago, my main text rant buddy introduced me to the notion of attachment theory by recommending an audio book with the title “Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment and How it Can Help You Find – and Keep – Love” by Amir Levine and Rachel Heller. I was skeptical at first, … Continue reading The Attachment Pandemonium

It’s been about a year since I started writing down my thoughts and worries quite consistently. As a result, one of the many notebooks I’ve bought over the years (by the way, does anyone else love buying pretty notebooks even though their purpose is unknown at the moment of purchase..?!) is getting close to being … Continue reading Random Thoughts Collection
Communication is important. Without proper communication, everything is sh*t. Be it at work or outside of work, if you can’t communicate what you want / need to say, the result won’t be satisfactory and you might end up somewhere you never wanted to be in the first place. I’m much better at communicating in writing … Continue reading Lessons I’ve Learned / Notes to Self [Edited]
*wobble* It is I, the queen of Wobble City! Let me tell you a little bit about myself. Generally speaking, I know exactly what I want. I know what I believe in, I know where my boundaries are and I know why I live my life the way I do. UNLESS something makes me wobble. … Continue reading Welcome to Wobble City
Before I share my latest ramblings with you, I’d like to give you a little update on how I’m doing. I’m really happy that the number of people who read my posts is increasing (yaaaaay!), but some of my readers expressed their concerns about my well-being, given that the things I write about are usually … Continue reading Scrambled Thoughts
I’m tired. So darn tired..! I’ve been eating my veggies, drinking enough water, getting enough sleep and working out consistently, not overburdening myself with an excruciating number of social after-work activities and I still just want to go home and sleep for 48 uninterrupted hours. (Before any of my relatives and/or close friends jump to … Continue reading The Exhaustion Amplification (AKA Lack of Gratitude)
I stumbled upon the concept of emotional (un-)availability a few days ago and it really resonated with me. I’m always amazed when something I’ve been experiencing in some form or another can be put into words and even has its own name. (BTW*, I don’t know what all these sudden mind-blowing realisations of mine are … Continue reading The Emotion Fortress
I recently came across an eye-opening Instagram post which had the following headline: “Stop apologizing, start thanking”. At first, it didn’t impress me much, but then I kept on reading and I ended up being intrigued − there’s an actual way to rephrase my constant apologies such that I’m not required to constantly degrade myself … Continue reading Mind = blown
