A lot more like "Love"

Have you ever noticed that since the pandemic, or maybe long before, you'd hear the word "Anxiety attack" and you'd be wondering "What the heck is that?!" or "Are you serious?" it sounds like a joke if someone told you that they have an anxiety attack because this is all so new to you. But believe me, I'm not kidding. Before I'd go any further, let's see what is anxiety... What is anxiety? (https://www.helpguide.org/articles/anxiety/anxiety-disorders-and-anxiety-attacks.htm) Anxiety is a normal reaction to danger, the body’s automatic fight-or-flight response that is triggered when you feel threatened, under pressure, or facing a challenging situation, such as a job interview, exam, or first date. In moderation, anxiety isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It can help you to stay alert and focused, spur you to action, and motivate you to solve problems. But when anxiety is constant or overwhelming—when worries and fears interfere with your re

  What I learn from my lecture today is what most of us probably know from somewhere else. "Self-fulfilling Prophecies", which I understood as positive vibe will attract positive vibe and negative vibe will only attract negative vibe. Sounds familiar? I've learn it long time ago that negativity would not serve me well so did being around negative people would just only drain my energy. Have you ever felt so drain every time when you're with some certain people? It's like every time when you tried to cheer them up and when you spent time longer time with them, nothing would help and they still kept going with all the complaining, drama, and so on. I was there in that position, I kept receiving all the bad vibe and it's absolutely completely mentally drained me. No matter how much I tried to help them, no matter how many time I changed the subject, they would come back to their own problem and focusing on the bad part. So, it's not just only that my emotion

It's been a long plan that I want to study Psychology, even before the Pandemic, but I didn't have time to consider taking class. Until now.. There's many supported factors to the decision. 1st, I had an emotional breakdown last year in September because it's the time I supposed to be back in Bangkok but I was stuck here. 2nd, I had a couple session with therapist but I didn't find it satisfied to my needed. 3nd, there's a couple online sessions which company provide to employee. I  didn't find it useful as well because, to me, as a instructor, professional speaker, you need to study your audience. You need to know who you are talking to and even learn how to pronounce the company's name or else you are just reading your presentation. So that's it? You're paid to talk but not paid to care? You'd definitely lost me after 15 mins into the session. So, I finally decided to take class, not to understand any broken one nor trying to fix them but t

I had my first tattoo 10 years ago and since then, I now have 8 of them.  The first one was Phoenix and it's quite a rush so I didn't have much time to choose through all designs. All I knew was I wanted Phoenix and I also didn't have enough time to do the bigger one. So there it was, my first tattoo as Phoenix. When I went home I didn't know how my mom would react because she always said that tattoo is only for those people who went to jail. Well, that's how Thais believe that people who has tattoo would probably come from prison. Anyway, I was surprised when she said why I didn't get a bigger if I already spent some times to have it done. So, I guess she didn't act overwhelming because I already had it so there's no point to argue about it.  Mom also warn me not to have any sacred tattoo done by those famous Ajarn who did it for Angelina Joli. What you need to know is that, those sacred tattoo has to be well maintain and I didn't mean by taking car

The love of food probably started when I was young, my mom always cooked something nice at home. I loved helping her preparing meals but she never let me cook. She said that I would just mess it up in the kitchen so I didn't mind as long as she cooked amazing meal then I let she did her work. And also I was lucky that mom and dad were always adventurous when it came to food. I tried lots of cuisine when I was just a kid. I tried Japanese, Chinese, Indian, European, etc. Also I wasn't really a fussy eater. I love bitter gourd soup which mom cooked but I found out later that actually she didn't like bitter gourd at all but she cooked it so that I'd eat all kind of vegetables. Thanks my mom for that, yes I love all vegetables except carrot. I don't like carrot a bit but I still eat it because it supposes to be good for you, that's what mom said. I also love trying local food when I travelled I miss Thai food from time to time but I don't have to eat everyday. T
