Quick update

  Once again I failed my mission to deliver you guys with the new places but life changed quite a bit for me and I haven't recently been to any new places but luckily I did visit some before I took the ride on the roller coaster of life and I will soon update about those places for you guys but for now this is the best I can offer. After this post I will be gone for another month or so before I can balance out my schedule, right now it's just me, my books and past papers since I'm doing my IGCSEs. I know many of you are suffering the same issue as me, exams, and I just want to tell you guys that you must believe in yourself before you can actually accomplished it. Don't look back after you finish the exam and just continue to move forward because even if you feel like you really screwed up the paper but you can't go back in time and change it anyway so just focus on what's coming up and try your best to achieve top mark, as long as you know you tried then you have nothing to worry about. 

Revise tons and take good care of yourself, don't stay up too late as it can affect your memory and it will drain your energy which might lead to lack of concentration. Remember to eat and take often rests to help your brain to relax, this will allow your brain to absorb more. Listen to calming music, turn it down to small volume so you can concentrate on your work, music genre such as instrumental can really boost your memory. 

I don't personally listen to instrumental but I listen to chill remixes when I study and I love 'Majestic Casual' for this, search the account on youtube or 'The Sound You Need'! I'm currently in love with these songs:
"Open Up" by Gallant
"All I Need" by Astronomyy ft. Denai Moore
"Cavalier" by James Vincent McMorroe but MOORS remix
"Another love" by Zweete Edit originally by Tom Odell

I will, hopefully soon, make a revision playlist including all the songs I'm current putting on repeat. Well have a good night and good luck to you guys with finals and exams! Defeat the exams and don't let they taunt you. Top tip: Don't Procrastinate! 

Love you all x

Here's just a kawaii picture for you all.

Ep 3.

Whenever I feel down or I need to escape the reality this is the place I check-in to. Not so overwhelming yet very rustic this is the perfect place to settle down. As it's on the top floor of an apartment building there aren't many disturbances which allows you to find your inner peace. I don't recommend this on a weekend as it tempts to get a bit more crowded. This location is one of the first places that I visited when I just started my journey into the alternative Saigon, back then it was very underrated and unknown but now as more people have found out about this place it's not exactly the same as how it was anymore. Despite the fact that it's not as quiet it's still worth the shot and it's a must go place.



This place holds can contains many of my memories and that's why I cherish it so much. All the decorations here are very simple yet very beautiful, sitting here on a rainy day is the best thing ever. Even though they don't have a large variety of foods but the drinks here are very delicious and worth trying.



If you ever have the chance to visit this place, please do and take tons of photos. I do consider this place one of the many places I love so much.
