I woke up today with a foreign arm staring at me and I got the shock of my life. Only later did I realise that that arm was my own, and I couldn’t feel it. It was too numb from me refusing to change position in bed because I was too scared of the cold.

Watch

I went to the Domkyrka last night, and at that moment when I entered the cathedral past the grand doors, I saw a procession of people in robes waiting in line, stoic. And when they started to sing in chorus, it was hair-raising. The robes the chorus the procession the candlelights the ambience they transported me to an interlude set in Diablo.

Watch

I almost didn’t step inside the Domkyrka that day, the doors were all closed — I’m so used to doors being open or automated glass doors welcoming you. If not for a man that looked like a tourist opening that entrance door, I wouldn’t have been awed by the magnificent organs. I then realised that at such sub-zero temperatures, it’s quite impossible to leave doors...

Winter Wear

When I landed in Sweden, I think I was too fascinated by the snow to feel any cold. Besides, I had 4 bags to carry — enough to keep me warm I guess. On the first night, I thought I could go outside with just a sweater on top of my t-shirt (and a scarf and a beanie) — I couldn’t last five minutes. My teeth was chattering. But on the second night I was prepared. I had thermal...

18h

My 20-hour transit begins now. I am utterly dazed from lack of sleep — I watched Julie & Julia in 2 parts during brunch (supper?) and breakfast, and fall right back to sleep in between. This is one of the smoothest flights I’ve been in. I love Qatar Airways. A bird just flew above me. Are birds even allowed in the airport building? I feel like I’m in a park. I want to sleep. I need to: ...

Flying off tonight and I’m almost done packing. All that is left is to go change some money, shower, pack toiletries. I’m nervous-excited. This will be my first time in life seeing feeling tasting snow. I don’t know what to expect. I’m scared I’ll just shrivel and die. And I’m dreading the 20h transit. I’ve equipped myself with episodes of Heroes and...

The world doesn't want me to ride a bike

I passed my second last bike lesson in 1 try and just when I thought I’m finally that much closer to scootering, I realised that I had to extend my expiry date because my membership ends 26 December and when I went to renew my membership, I found out that my Riding Theory Test expires 11 February so I was advised to finish up my last lesson within this few days so that I can book the...
