Are you superstitious?

Am I Superstitious? Let’s Just Say… It’s Complicated.

This morning, my son and his buddies threw out a dangerous question: “Are you superstitious?”

Now, logically, I want to say no. I don’t walk around tossing salt over my shoulder or fearing black cats. But if we’re being honest… I also refuse to say things like “Wow, nothing has gone wrong today!” because I know the universe is listening.

So, am I superstitious? Let’s just say I respect the possibility of unseen forces—but I’m also not afraid to test them.

Let’s break it down.

1. The ‘Don’t Jinx It’ Rule (AKA, I’m Not Stupid)

You ever confidently say something, only for life to immediately slap you in the face?

🔹 Example: “Ugh, I never get sick.” Boom—suddenly, I’m drowning in tissues and self-pity.
🔹 Pain Level: 9/10. Because why does the universe have to be so petty?

✅ How I Handle It: I knock on wood. Every time. Even if it’s fake. Even if people are watching. If I forget? You best believe I’m mentally whispering “no jinx, no jinx, no jinx” to undo the damage.

2. The ‘Something Feels Off’ Rule (My Sixth Sense is Real)

I don’t know if it’s energy, instinct, or just years of experience with people being sketchy, but if something feels wrong, I listen.

🔹 Example: Walking into a place and feeling an immediate, unexplainable sense of nope.
🔹 Pain Level: 10/10 if ignored. Because the ONE TIME I brushed it off, I ended up in a situation I never should have been in.

✅ How I Handle It: If my gut tells me to leave, I leave. No debating, no justifying. The last thing I need is to become the main character in a bad horror movie.

3. The ‘Ghosts? Prove Me Wrong’ Rule (I’m Ready for This Fight)

Unlike most people, I don’t fear ghosts, Ouija boards, or haunted places—I’m fascinated by them. Do I believe in spirits and the paranormal? Not really.

But am I willing to test it? Hell yes.

🔹 Example: While some people refuse to step foot in a haunted house, I’m the one saying, “Alright, if something’s here, show yourself.”
🔹 Pain Level: TBD. But honestly, if a ghost did prove me wrong, I’d be more excited than scared.

✅ How I Handle It: If the supernatural wants my attention, it better bring receipts. Until then, I’m keeping my skepticism and my curiosity wide open.

So, Am I Superstitious?

Let’s put it this way—I don’t live in fear of bad luck, but I also don’t poke the bear (except when it comes to ghosts, apparently).

If knocking on wood, trusting my instincts, and challenging the unknown keeps things interesting, then I’m all in.

Now, tell me—are you superstitious?

Or are you the type to laugh in the face of fate?

Drop your thoughts in the comments… but if your luck suddenly changes, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

NSFW Ink Dreams: Where Would You Put Yours?

What tattoo do you want, and where would you put it?

Some people want a discreet infinity symbol on their ankle.
Others want angel wings between their shoulder blades.
Me?

I want the Joker and Harley Quinn… tangled in sin… on my inner thigh.

Yes, you read that right. I already have six tattoos—each one a slice of my story—but this?
This one’s going to be my masterpiece.

Why settle for basic when your thighs are prime real estate for chaos, colour, and the promise of a little danger?

Why the Inner Thigh, though?

Well, darling, that’s easy.

It’s hidden… until it’s not.

It’s intimate. Naughty. A secret meant to be earned.

And every time I cross my legs or shift in bed, I’ll know there’s a beautiful madness resting just beneath my skin.

The Joker, smirking with toxic charm.
Harley, wide-eyed, wild, loyal in all the wrong ways.
The ultimate ride-or-die pair—etched into my flesh, just inches from all the fun.

Honestly? If you’re going to mark your body forever, make it interesting.
Make it tell a story… or whisper one between parted thighs.

More Tattoos. More Mischief. More Me.

My body is already a canvas of secrets and symbols.

Not just to look.
But to wonder.
To imagine what else might be hiding underneath the lace and leather.

So, yes—my Joker and Harley thigh piece is still in the works.
But the rest of my skin? Hungry. Ready. Waiting for the needle to tell another scandalous tale.

A Man Who Left Echoes

My Top 5 Grocery Store Items

Click here for more articles & daily dose.

Working as a House Officer, I do not go out to eat much. Mainly because our days are mainly occupied with work and after work, we would be drained. Well, most of the time.

Thus, if I were to really go out, it would be during my long breaks which is when I apply for leaves.

In terms of acquiring groceries, I rarely go to the grocery store myself as I do not have a car of my own in Sarawak. I am extremely dependent on Grab and overtime can be expensive as well.

Hence, I make do with the convenience store downstairs at my apartment which doesn’t really have much in terms of fresh foods or ordering online.

Here are my Top 5 must haves in my grocery list which is available in the convenience store if I were to just shop there.

1. Coffee

As I mentioned in some of my previous articles before. It is a must have drug in my system. Personally I think I have grown rather immune to the effects of caffeine over the years from overconsumption. Thus, if I’m unable to get my grounded coffee beans, usually I’ll make do with some freeze dried coffee or a regular black coffee powder.

2. Oats

I replace rice for rolled oats when I’m living alone. Back at home, my mother would always cook rice as my parents love rice. However, I noticed that I easily crash or get sleepy easily after consuming rice. Thus, I substitute it for rolled oats and usually I would cook soups or curries and pour the oats over it and consume it just like regular rice.

3. Eggs

It is easily available. When there is nothing else stored in my pantry and everything else is closed, eggs go about well with almost everything. 

4. Noodles

Well, I’m not exactly healthy per se all the time, and I do enjoy my occasional instant noodles. Especially after work and not having a meal the whole day, I’ll just whip up a quick dish of curry instant noodles with eggs.

5. Sausages

Personally, I prefer chicken over sausages and as mentioned before, I rarely go out for my groceries. Hence, I’d go for sausage since it is easily available at the convenience store downstairs. In addition to that, I can be versatile with cooking them.

Thus, if I had to list 5 of the hat, these are my top 5 that I would shop for in any grocery stores amidst working as a House Officer.

Again, sadly, it lacks nutrition. But, oh well.

Describe a family member.

Daily writing prompt

This one is difficult. My gut instinct is to respond that each member of my family is brilliant and kind and loving and amazing. It’s going to end up like that, but maybe not quiet so explicitly?

Let’s start with my wife, Jen. I have never met anyone so capable. Her brain is breathtaking. Her intelligence is staggering. Professionally speaking she can do anything. Managing people or architecting software systems or implementing code solutions. All of it. I can’t tell you how many of her co-workers have told me how she continuously amazes them. She is also kind and sweet and supportive and loving. I have had a few difficult situations in my life that I do not believe I could have handled without having her with me to help me through them. All of my life I imagined what the perfect life-partner would be like. Jen is it. She checks all of my life-partner boxes. Before I met her I was convinced that I would never get married and never have a family. Then she came along and changed my entire outlook on life. She is a shockwave to my system that changed every aspect of my life for the better. She is the single most amazing human being I have ever encountered and I love her with every fiber of my being. I cannot believe she found me worthy of sharing her life with. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky. I don’t think I will ever figure it out, but I will eternally be thankful I did whatever it was I did.

Next up is my step son, Harry. He’s a 20 year old junior at the University of Vermont. He is the single most generous person I have ever met. His selflessness borders on astounding. He has also had to deal with some serious health issues. Years ago, when he was still a little guy, he developed type one diabetes. His body stopped producing insulin for some reason and he got incredibly sick very quickly. We almost lost him. His response after recovering from the initial issues has been nothing short of incredible. He took up the challenge of managing his disease and has kept himself healthy ever since. I try to imagine myself in his shoes and I just can’t see myself handling my blood sugar as expertly as he has. We had that one horrible hospitalization before we knew what was wrong, but in the nearly 10 years since there has never been even another scare. Sure his blood sugar spikes and dips from time to time, but he reacts to it swiftly and accurately and always brings it into line in short order. Even the medical staff who oversee his diabetes management are a little in awe of how well he has done. He is an inspiration as well as being a kind and loving step son. He is amazing.

Finally there is my step daughter, Bellana. She is a 22 year old recent college graduate. She is working in medical research these days, but graduate school is in her future. She is working toward getting published in a medical journal and is hoping to achieve that before starting a Masters program. I expect there will be a PHD in her future at some point, but let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. To say that Bellana is brilliant is a massive understatement. She is also the most driven person I have ever known. She wanted to be first in her class in high school and she pulled it off. She wanted to graduate from college with honors and she pulled it off. She decides what she wants and she forces her will upon it and makes it happen. It’s amazing to watch. She is also just as kind and loving as can be. Just like her brother and her mother, she is amazing.

On top of all of these things about the three members of my family, they are also hysterically funny. The sense of humor these people have… we spend so much time together laughing. Again I have to ask, what did I do to deserve having these people in my life? What did I do to make them let me stay around? I will never know but I will forever be grateful.

So there you have it. Descriptions of my family members that cover maybe 0.01% of all of the things that I love about them. I have barely scratched the surface, but it’s still enough to give you an idea of why I love them so much.
