Suddenly, I'm single

I've been single forever, and sadly this is no exaggeration. I was always happy to hold the arm of some other stag and dance away at a party. It was the perfect arrangement. You have fun, he has fun and you leave out all the serious stuff for later. I consciously didn't date anyone as I genuinely believed it was a waste of time.

As selfish as it may sound, I decided to invest my time in myself. I read, I learned, I studied, I took up posts like youth group President and School Rep, and other seemingly important things. I volunteered with social organisations, supported causes, and in my free time, which I hardly had any , I would trek and runs and swim. I'd third wheel on my BFF's dates. And off course, karaoke and FOOD took up the rest of my life.

So it seemed to me like I was having fun, and my life was complete. I had a good job a fancy enough degree and I was living a fun life. Then suddenly one day I woke up to the realisation that everyone around me was getting married, that my parents wanted that of me too. That eventually all my friends would be married and it will t be the same.

This is when my journey of finding prince Charming began. It's been all misses and no hits so far. And so I present, the Miss-adventures of the Frog Princess.

This is a true story of all the times I (and some of my friends ) swiped wrong and all the lessons to learn, the notes to remember and the numbers to block!

Things to do when you have a bad day

We've all had those. Sometimes is because something someone said or did and sometimes it's because the Universe decided to have some fun at your cost and everything just goes wrong. No matter what you did. If today was one of them here's what you should do; 1) Play a happy song on loop. If happy is annoying, play Daniel posters Bad day or Ed Sheeran's Thinking out Loud it's healing or relaxing at least. 2) Have some chocolate. And by some I don't mean a whole bar. but a little does help you feel better. 3) Talk about it. To anyone or at least write it down on a piece of paper. 4) Run. Go jogging or running or even a long walk will help relax and clear your thoughts. 5) Sleep. Know that tomorrow will take care of itself so just sleep. 6) Pray. God loves you let him know you need him. 7) Try and think of one positive thought and remember that it's okay tomorrow will be better.

Boss Management

Well, only a few know this but it's a fact. You manage your boss as much as he manages your work! Your interaction and approaches will take you a long way not only for appraisal , but even in the broader sense of your life goals. You must ensure that you tried on the path you choose and not merely wander aimlessly (while it's not a bad idea) be careful not to be pushed on to paths leading nowhere! Will share a few thoughts in a few hours!

The lying cheat who said he truly loved me

The deeper into your twenties you get the more you worry about how some dreams may never come true. Your metabolism decreases and you get fatter and with each kilo you pile on you begin to wonder if gravity is the only thing that's slowing you down? Everyone around you is getting married, having their second child and you're wading through the day. You begin to wonder where you're headed and figure d the first solution out. To me this meant online dating! Yea my life had come to this, what I hoped would never happen to me. I get introduced to Bachelor number 24, he doesn't look like my type but since my type isn't showing up I decide to lower expectations and give it a shot. It gets better, he seems nice. It's like he knows what I'm thinking and he know exactly what to say. After having ditched a rather clingy man, the space that long-distance provides seems refreshing. You doubt everything. You begin to wonder if he's the frog who will soon be the pr...
