LIFESTYLE

October has been a strange kind of limbo month for me, part reflection, part rebuild. The nights are darker, the air feels heavier, and apparently, my playlist followed suit. It’s that beautiful balance between melancholy and motion, songs that make you ache a little, but keep you moving anyway.

Here’s what they don’t put on the canva graphic with the motivational quote: MLMs aren’t built for your success. They’re built to make money from you, not for you. MLMs are not cute little side hustles. But let’s break it down properly.

I’ve worn glasses for 16 years, not by choice, but because genetics decided my eyes should be decorative rather than functional. Until now, my specs have been glorified face shackles. That is, until I met these seductive little tech goblins disguised as Ray Bans - fancy.

Aka how not to look like a clueless foreign goblin in the land of organised serenity.

Lets be clear, not in a spiritual Eat, Pray, Love kind of way, more in a need a break before I commit a crime kind of way.

If you don’t know, Stray Kids are an eight member K-pop group formed by JYP Entertainment in 2018 after a survival show of the same name. Since then, they’ve carved out a space as one of the most innovative groups in the industry, writing and producing the majority of their own songs, blending rap, EDM, and rock into something entirely their own.
