Self-portrait by the beach. Behind me is Corniche, Ajman skyline.
Last week had been pretty amazing because my friend and I went out and walked a few kilometers which is absolutely my favorite thing aside from biking around. On Wednesday, we went to Starbucks because my friend was craving for their Matcha Green Tea latte. It was actually my 1st time going to Starbucks in my 2 years stay in UAE, and my 4th visit my whole life. I'm not a fan of SB, but that Matcha was really, really good. Although it cannot beat my most favorite which is Tim Horton's French Vanilla coffee!
2 days after, Friday, we went out again because there's supposed to be a meteor shower at late evening, but I was actually praying more for a little rain because I was positive we won't see the meteor shower because of the city lights. Well, both ended up not happening, but we still enjoyed our time by the beach and it was very fun to walk on small sand dunes.
Today is Sunday which means another #SundayCurrently entry, right? But what makes today extra special is that it's my 1st month here at Steemit! I admit I wasn't as active anymore, but I'm staying and striving to still deliver good content once in a while. My life is catching up on me that is why I'm all over the place for the past few days, and I actually feel sorry for myself, but c'est la vie.
@ablckbrd & her friend.
Anyway, let's start, shall we?
R E A D I N G my to-do list before I finally go home. I do not know why I'm getting all sentimental with a place I couldn't bare visiting again in the near future. Dubai has always been special yet distant to me, and I can only love it in secret.
W R I T I N G this Sunday Currently entry with all my remaining power. Writing my thoughts lately had been very overwhelming so I try to avoid as much as possible. I actually want to silence my mind by drawing, but even that doesn't help much these days. My demons are semi-active. No worries though, I am not yet fully consumed.
L I S T E N I N G to my clock ticking. I can finally say that it's already winter time in Ajman because I no longer turn on our loud AC in the morning. Now I am only listening to my clock and sounds outside my window.
T H I N K I N G about a particular video I saw early this morning by Jos Van Riswick. You can check out the video here and be ready to be fascinated!
S M E L L I N G Kaji Hazelnut chocolate and strawberry milk.
W I S H I N G for more late night walks with a yogurt drink in one hand. Who's obsessed with Yakult here?
H O P I N G for a productive week ahead. I really want to paint something for a change or probably draw something using soft pastel. A still life perhaps? Let's see.
W E A R I N G my favorite Caffeine shirt given to me by Katreena, and a black shorts.
L O V I N G The Package more and more! It is a South Korean drama about a group of Korean travelers led by tour guide Yoon So So. I believe 75% of the whole production was shot in France. The story is quite heavy if you base it solely with the travelers' personal stories, but the beauty of France balances everything out.
The Package Official Poster.
W A N T I N G to travel more if time and money permits. For now, I am just enjoying my time here because after all, UAE is still a foreign country and God knows when I'll be able to visit again. Not in 10 years time, I believe.
Let me share my top 5 dream destinations: South Korea, Japan, Iceland, Italy, and Switzerland.
N E E D I N G some energy-booster? I slept early around 11pm, and woke up at 9am. That's 10-hour sleep, but I am still sleepy. I do not like feeling this way because it's one of my sure symptoms that my devils are active again. Ottoke?
F E E L I N G tired AF. Again, another symptom. Pray for my weary soul, will you?

Our top five are very similar! :D
Let's go! :D Is your top 1 Japan?
Yeppers! ^__^
Yeah, life has a way of throwing all bad/good jokes at us, but it's a matter of perspective. We choose to feel bad, then we'll be. Try to keep positive and positivity will hopefully find us sooner! *wink!
Crossing fingers! Thank you, @arrliinn! :)
yeah, me too! :D
