“Tell me more about yourself?”; “Who are you?”; “Describe yourself in three words?” Whenever someone asks me any of these questions, my palms get sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy… haha no, but on a serious note though my mind always goes blank and I never know what to say because I don’t think I…

Livin’ La Vida Vinci (Day 01)
Today marks the first day of trying to live like the awesome Leonardo Da Vinci for 1 week! I had made a previous post about his daily schedule linked here but it didn’t go according to plan. This is me trying again and on the fun side dabbling in creating an animation (a little bit…
Let’s get litty: You are a badass (Chapter 1)
Hey, it’s been a minute. The past few weeks have been quite intense. Either way, today will be an overview of the 1st chapter of Jen Sincero’s ” You are a badass: How to stop doubting your greatness and start living an awesome life “. I usually do a holistic review of a book once…
My case against soulmates: Part 1
Soul mates don’t exist. I haven’t always been this cynical, like most little girls, Disney movies had me believing that somewhere in the world there was one human being who was specially made for me. That fate would make sure our paths would eventually cross, we would emphatically fall in love and live happily ever…
The Art of feeling stupid
There’s this little inner voice in my head, lets call her Miss Fifi, yeah that sounds about right I think. Miss Fifi is independent, can’t be held down and is sure of her personal convictions. One of her favourite main beliefs is that I, Selma, am stupid. This belief of hers is especially true whenever…

Quarantine Update: The Importance of Rest
Hi there, it’s been a minute. As I’m sure you will realize I didn’t keep up with my vision of blogging every day of the quarantine, why? because of life! So much has happened in-between my last post and now that I just either didn’t have the time or I genuinely was was not in…
Day 3 of 21 in quarantine
I’m uploading this a day after the fact because Day 3 was my day of rest and detox from most social media platforms besides YouTube as that’s where I listen to music the most. In any-case this was just a lazy day for me, spent most of it napping and watching movies, the weather has…
A Quarter life crisis and a book about existentialism. (Day 2 of 21 days of quarantine)
I think I’m having a quarter life crisis. Or maybe just an existential one. Or is it the same thing? I don’t know! I’m at this weird impasse that humanity before, now and in the future has and will come too which is trying to figure out the meaning of life. For the longest time…
