    Billie Eilish and AM/FM memory

    When I first heard Billie Eilish, I thought her voice is unusual — and I was on the unsavory side. But as I listen to her songs, it brings certain memory. When I just started university, I had this small AM/FM radio from my dad. I usually listened to it before bedtime, with low volume,…

    2020: Halfway

    As we are skeptically looking at the end of August and the rest of 2020, I wanted to see how far we have gone — or didn’t go at all because travel restrictions and all that. Early 2020, when we were such sweet summer children — not realizing the horror descended upon us. Then… Everything…

    Image and website: Handling HEIC file format

    This post will sound pretty technical-ish, but I just realized something about it and I wanted to write it here and hopefully it can give some insights or info with you folks.

    On reporting and supporting

    18 months in Automattic and working as part of Support team, I learned on how to improve my bug reporting. However, I soon found that it’s applicable on general communication — to ensure our message/question/inquiry/insight properly and clearly delivered and received.

    9 years and counting…

    Earlier today, as I messing around with this blog’s theme for the gazillionth times, I checked my Facebook Memories and I found a picture from 9 years ago — my high school teacher with me, standing side by side, and with a caption of my teacher with me as her student. Something on my mind…

    Plants Updates

    I’m that kind of person with the ability of killing a plastic cactus. Once, a golden pothos perished on my hand. PERISHED. A gardener once went agape when I mentioned to them that I once killed a mint plant. Mint is a very invasive, strong plant — it even considered as garden weed. And I…
