Gonzo Got Me



I visited Gonzo, and it genuinely impressed me. The moment I walked in, the atmosphere stood out, warm lighting, thoughtfully designed spaces, and a crowd that looked polished. The place had a refined, artistic vibe that immediately set the tone.

The cheese dimsum was the first thing I tried, and it was a pleasant surprise. Since it was my first time having it, the soft, rich texture caught me off guard in the best way. It felt almost sushi-like in how delicately it melted, and it made me rethink what I expect from dimsum.

The sushi was decent, not extraordinary, but neatly presented and enjoyable enough.

The standout dish was the Pad Thai. The flavors were bold and well-balanced, and it had the kind of depth that makes you keep eating without thinking twice. It was easily the highlight of the meal.

Overall, the ambience and food together made the visit feel like a complete experience. I left feeling satisfied on more than just a physical level. I’d definitely return, especially for the Pad Thai, and the place itself is beautiful enough to want to take a few photos.

The Girl Who Finally Chose Herself

Image
There was a version of me who always put others first. The girl who thought twice before saying no was  afraid of disappointing someone. The one who stretched herself thin to be everything for everyone , even when it left her feeling empty. She believed in keeping people close;  the more, the better.  But somewhere along the way, she changed. Now, she prioritizes herself,  not in a selfish, ruthless way, but in a way that means she finally matters to herself . She no longer apologises for protecting her peace. She doesn’t overexplain why she’s setting boundaries. The girl who once believed in quantity over quality now knows that real connections don’t need constant validation. They just exist,  strong, unshaken, and true. She’s no longer scared to say no,  because she’s learned that saying yes to things that drain her is just another way of saying no to herself. And for the first time, she’s okay with that shift. She doesn’t need to be the fixer, the...

The Pressure to Be ‘Cool’ Online vs. Just Being Yourself

Image
  Let’s be honest, how many times have you taken a picture, looked at it, and thought, “ Will this look good on my feed?” instead of “Do I even like this?” Welcome to the internet, where posting for validation is a sport and looking effortlessly cool is the ultimate goal. But here’s the real question: Are we really posting for ourselves, or are we just curating a version of us that fits the ‘cool’ aesthetic? Social media has turned into a giant competition where people post what looks good, not necessarily what feels good. We see the perfectly posed candids, the ‘casual’ mirror selfies (that probably took 50 attempts), and the captions that scream “I’m effortlessly cool and mysterious”, when in reality, it’s just another attempt to keep up with the online version of ourselves. And let’s not even get started on trends. One day, you’re wearing something because you like it, and the next, you’re questioning your whole wardrobe because it’s not giving "Pinterest aesthetic." ...

Posting and Deleting: Why We Overthink Everything We Share

Image
Oh, the joys of social media. A place where we can truly be ourselves—after spending 20 minutes choosing the perfect filter, rewriting the caption five times, and analysing whether our post makes us look cool, funny, or just plain desperate for attention. Sounds exhausting? That’s because it is. We’ve all been there. Staring at a post as if it’s some kind of life-changing decision.   I s this selfie cute or cringy? Will people get my joke? What if no one likes it within the first 10 minutes? !   And if overthinking kicks in, boom! Deleted. Because obviously, the world was judging us so harshly in those five minutes our post was up. And the cycle continues. We want to share, but we also want to be effortlessly perfect (which, spoiler alert: no one is). We scroll through everyone else’s “casual” pics, aka perfectly posed, edited masterpieces, and wonder why we can’t just upload something without analyzing every pixel. We tell ourselves we’re just “curating our aesthetic,” but le...
