Goodbye 2017 Q1
Almost forgot it’s public holiday today. I went back to the studio as usual after my weekly calligraphy class.

Mourning… (end)

I’ve since started a week long mourning by avoiding any kind of social gatherings including Sunday worship, calligraphy class, and fellowship. The avoidance came natural as I have the habit of hiding myself when I’m down. I’ve also tried out an unorthodox therapy […]
