THE WEIGHT OF THE SPOTLIGHT-Why public figures face more criticism than the rest of us
Public figures aren't always wrong—they're just the ones we see. In a world driven by media attention, the loudest criticisms often fall on the most visible shoulders. This piece explores why we target the spotlighted few, even when millions silently share the same views.

PLANNED, SCRAPPED, REPLANNED
used to think career plans were solid things—blueprints you just had to follow. But life doesn't read blueprints. It edits, erases, and sometimes sets the whole page on fire. What I’ve learned is that the ability to pivot, to start over without shame, is a kind of success too.

SPLINTERS POETRY NIGHT: MY HONEST EXPERIENCE AS A FIRST-TIME ATTENDEE
I never imagined my first live performance experience would come by way of a stranger’s Instagram message—and yet, there I was, heart pounding, seated at the edge of a dimly lit venue, unsure if I was more nervous about the poetry or the people. What unfolded next? A night I won't soon forget.

I GREET YOU, BOSS

NOT SUFFRAGED. INFORMALLY DISENFRANCHISED
Think Mufasa in The Lion King—that’s me in the crowd. So no, I stay away. Not because I don’t care about my civic duty, but because showing up feels like walking straight into punishment.

TRY EVERYTHING
What gives you direction in life? As soon as I saw this prompt, my mind instantly traveled to Shakira's 2016 hit, Try Everything because you can't know which direction to go until you have tried hence the expression "Never Say Die Until You Try". You cannot know that this is the way until you have tried other ways and failed woefully because I guarantee you there are only a handful of people who have ever gotten it on the very first attempt.
SKEPTICAL DRAWINGS & DRAW-INS-WHY I DON’T LIVE BY QUOTES ANYMORE.
I used to think quotes had all the answers—until life proved otherwise. After years of struggling through college and wrestling with self-doubt, I realized that not every sunshine-and-shadow line works in the real world. This isn’t your typical feel-good post. It’s a raw, honest reflection on why I stopped living by borrowed words—and started facing my truth instead.

CAMPED IN A FAR-AWAY LOCATION
Have you ever been camping? There are a number of things I have never done in this life so far, and camping is one of them. What is camping, anyway? Camping means staying overnight—or for several nights—outdoors in a tent or other temporary shelter. It’s a leisure thing for people who want nature, adventure, or a break from the usual. It comes in different forms: car camping, glamping, even wild camping in the middle of nowhere.

THE SMILE & ORS
I’ve always loved the smiling emoji — not just because it’s cheerful, but because it’s my little way of keeping conversations calm, lifting others’ spirits, and spreading positivity, no matter what I’m feeling inside.
TO BE HONEST-JUST ME OVERTHINKING AGAIN
Starting a conversation feels like solving a Rubik’s cube — except I’m holding the cube upside down and missing a few pieces. If you’ve ever overthought a simple hello or needed to Google what to talk about, trust me, you’re not alone. Here’s a peek into my world of awkward beginnings, honest realizations, and maybe... just maybe, some topics worth finally talking about.

IF I KNEW WHAT I KNOW NOW
Looking back, I wish I had started a business during university. The opportunities were there—I just didn’t see them. Now, five years later, the regret hits different.

MINIMAL STRESSING: A PERSONAL SHIFT
Ever found yourself stressing over every little thing—every comment, every plan, every misstep? I used to live in that space constantly. But lately, something’s shifted. In this post, I talk about learning to let go, choosing what deserves my energy, and finding a bit of calm in the chaos. It’s not a perfect fix, but it’s a start—and maybe you’ll relate.

TOWARDS UNTYING THE KNOTS
Some days, the weight of the world feels like a knot—tight, unyielding, and overwhelming. But in the midst of exhaustion, I’ve learned that even the smallest routines—like a shower, a meal, or a few moments of music—hold the power to untangle the stress. And when nothing else works, I let sleep be the release, the quiet pause that restores me.
