    “Elbows next,” my Muay Thai instructor said, “Wait, what? Already?” I responded, almost incredulous at how fast we were progressing “Why, you scared?” “Ya a little bit” “It’s okay. Me too!” “Wait, what?” His simple comment did make both of us chuckle and loosen up a bit. I mean, when your instructor, who started Muay Thai Continue reading

    You don’t always have to have something to say My acting teacher would always tell me to “speak only to improve on silence, and move only to improve on stillness” Sometimes the right course of action is to not speak or not to act… Awkward silences are not always bad Passive states are sometimes needed Continue reading

  • A Day in Bangkok

    I could immediately see the imbalanced income distribution. While going down one street, I saw a newly renovated jewelry store, yet a few shops over there were elderly beggars on the street. There were many blind musicians around the train station near our hotel as well playing for tips. And looking at the infrastructure, you Continue reading
