Comics: Endless Sales

Image
We are flooded by ads from e-commerce platforms on our TV and YouTube videos in Singapore everyday. They initially started out as just a 11.11 (singles day on 11 Nov) sale but soon became a monthly affair throughout the year. I hope they give us a break!

Comics: Humans are Scarier than Ghosts

Image
It’s the 👻hungry ghost month in Chinese culture when it is believed that souls of the departed will be released to roam around the living world. Offerings are often made to appease them so they will not create mischief. However I think you would agree with me that humans are scarier, so this is a reminder to be kinder in our words 🌼

Comics: The Chinese Five Arts

Image
You might have heard of some names but they are part of the Five Arts in Chinese culture that have been practiced since ancient times. How many do you know or practice? I personally have practiced Qigong and Taichi for a short period of time before I pick up yoga. I also visited TCM practitioners and have been poked with needles many times. I also learnt Bazi and Qimen (I only do readings for family and close friends at the moment😅).

Comics: Dealing with negative comments

Image
I used to be affected by negative comments but after many years of experience, I decided to just remove and block the offensive comments if I see them. I have to accept the fact that creators cannot please everyone and there are surely people who don’t like you and/or your work. A hater will always hate and even become happier with the attention, so never give them the opportunity.
