  • My coffee mug. I have it for more than 30 years and still use it regularly, even if not on a daily basis. I have obtained others through various means over the years but still hung onto it all this while. It doesn’t even have a chip or flaked off bits of it’s design.

    I also have a hole puncher that my dad used as a young man. It’s probably close to 50 years or even more. It’s all rusted up now and doesn’t really see much use to be fair, but it still works for what it does.



  • From Australia, there’s Rake, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, and The Nowhere Boys, although for that last one only the first 2 seasons.

    My current Australian obsession is Bluey.

    Doc Martin, Merlin from the UK.

    Murdoch Mysteries earlier seasons from Canada.

    I also enjoyed a few Korean drama series like Misaeng.

    And this is really old from Japan, but Bayside Shakedown drama was really fun.

    Other Japanese dramas I liked include Proof of the Man, Aibou, and Shinzanmono. I love Japanese police dramas and mysteries.









  • I am living with chronic vertigo. I don’t know if it counts as an illness, but having this condition has made day to day living rather difficult. I feel strange all the time, there’s this constant swaying sensation, my head feels like it is wrapped in layers of gauze and on really bad days even my vision appears clouded. I can’t stand for prolonged periods when even sitting down doing nothing much feels like a drag.

    I appear outwardly fine though, and even my family members forget that some basic actions that they think nothing of no longer come with ease for me. Everything I do, even holding onto, say, a plate, when I am doing the dishes, I am doing it with utmost deliberate effort because the internal swaying sensations I feel have me thinking I am going to tip over any moment and I will end up dropping whatever I am holding.
