‪I’m going back to my office tomorrow, marking the end of this quarantine time, it’s been 3 months ! So I just want to write down some of the new habits I picked up during this quarantine time, not much, most of them are silly stuffs but still !

1. Pull some tarot or oracles cards every morning, I don’t ask anything in particular, message for the day for example, just want to look at the imagery and try to figure out the meaning of the card, or what I think it would be, to work on my intuition and imagination !

2. I also find myself watching so many more stuffs on Youtube now. Before it was just for music videos, acoustic covers or cooking lessons. Since I had more time at home now, I watched everything, history lesson, poetry, psychology stuffs, Ted talk ... I also watch tarot videos on Youtube before sleep, their reading does not always reasonate with me to be honest, but the way they interprete tarot cards and their interactions with those cards made their video interesting, and their voices, accents, of course ! To name some of my favorite tarot readers on Youtube: Ali’s Tarot (US), Lumiere (UK) and The Hermit Tarot (AUS). I particularly find Claire Summer’s (Lumiere) voice so soothing, sometimes when I had trouble sleeping, I tuned her in and then, well I slept !

3. Listen to jazz music or classical music, relaxing piano/guitar covers, depends on the day, but literally I listen to them all the time, while siping my coffee before turning on my computer, during lunch time, while working, reading ... I found myself listen to so much less mainstream music now, mainstream music is not always my cup of tea but I tried to be up to date with the music industry somehow, now I just don’t bother, I just listen to whatever suits my mood !

4. Playing the piano in the morning, during lunch break and after work. Actually I picked up ukelele lesson last November, but my wrists are still hurting (reason why I gave up on guitar), even though the uke is so much smaller than the guitar themselves. Then I tried Kalimba, it was fun, I learned to play some songs quite fast, it was easy. But I have problems keeping my nails long, well in order to play Kalimba you need to have nails on both thumbs unfortunately. I also tried guzheng, but well, long story short, I seriously think I picked the wrong instrument again. So I started to think of learning piano, the problem is that my apartment is so small, so I couldn’t fit big piano in it, and I’m afraid that it might not be the one for me again, well, after so many tries, I wondered and hesitated a lot, since purchasing a new piano is also an investment, it’s not as cheap as the other instrumens I have tried! But this quarantine time made me change my mind, I bought a new piano keyboard and started to learn piano on 2nd of April, 2 weeks in the quarantine and I am setting a routine of at least 2 hours of practice everyday and it’s almost 3 months now, I’m still happily keeping with it. I’m using SimplyPiano, currently on Intermediate III lesson. I tried to score 3 stars on every songs they had. So far I did, but I haven’t recorded to have 100% timing for any song, well still a long way to go on my journey with this instrument ! Just saying, I know a lot of people hated this app, I saw quite a number of negative reviews but whatsoever, it worked for me, and I enjoyed learning piano with them, so what ! I really think piano is the one for me. I kinda regret that I didn’t pick it up sooner ...

5. Read at least 1 chapter or 30 mins per day, morning or night before going to sleep, depends on the day and my mood.‬ This is actually not a new hobby to me, but staying at home with so many temptations on the internet, you could easily find yourself surfing for hours before even realizing it, it was a challenge for me to read, especially for some long and brain hacking psychology books !

6. Skincare, haircare, healthcare, homecare ! Well, when you tell yourself you’re not going out, not going to meet other people anytime soon, it’s easy to loosen up and say, oh it doesn’t matter if my skin is not glowing, well you know what, it does !!! So skincare everyday, mask twice per week, for face and hair, peeling once per week. And staying fit ! Not so sure about it but at least I didn’t gain any weights (I even lost some but well).

7. What else ?!? I guess that’s it. It’s just I love number 7 😂 I don’t know about anyone else but apparently I managed to stay sane during my quarantine time, at least I think I do ! So it counts, huh 🤔 😂

Just hope it’s not gonna be too late

[minhmeo277]

I’m not ready for not being in touch with you

[minhmeo277]

I can’t fall, at least before next Wednesday, just can’t

[minhmeo277]

Feeling like the old times !

[minhmeo277]

We both had places we need to be !

[minhmeo277]

So if you get lost, then I’m gonna find you...

Then who is gonna find me then ?!?

[minhmeo277]

Sometimes song is just song and sometimes it’s not

Rewatching A Cinderella Story again tonight !

Don’t really know what I feel anymore

[minhmeo277]

I don’t need any validation, I’m enough as I am

[minhmeo277]

Let me fake it until I make it then.

Picking up my pieces, little by little,

Goodbye to you

[minhmeo277]

I dread for you

Tried to see through all the smoke and dirt

It wouldn't move

What could I do?

I touch your head

To pull your thoughts

Into my hand

But now I can't

Say isn't it strange?

Isn't it strange?

I am still me

You are still you

In the same place

Isn't it strange?

How people can change

From strangers to friends

Friends into lovers

And strangers again

Jetlagg-ing ....

It’ll be alright

[minhmeo277]

Happy New Year, Happy New Decade, just be HAPPY

Normally I don’t listen that much to Viet music but this melody stucks in my head after watching the movie. The original soundtrack really really impressed me, and I am just freaking in love with an ins. version of this song played by the Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra but unfortunately it’s just nowhere to be found on the internet :( the feeling of wanting something desperately but can’t have it, is just terrible

Time can heal nothing and noone, only you can heal yourself
