Posted on June 29, 2025August 29, 2025 by Betsey Horton

Sunday afternoon. Here I am at my new accommodation for the next few days. Not quite sure of my next move, but I’ve narrowed it down to a couple of options. Right now I’m leaning towards “find a little hut on the beach somewhere in a less expensive part of...Read More

Saturday night. Alone in the apartment on my last night here. So grateful I never have to climb up that stupid loft bed after this. I’m way too old for that shit. Hopefully the next person who lives here will appreciate it more than I do. How am I? GREAT!...Read More

BLOG: You Can’t Fire Me, I Quit

Posted on June 27, 2025August 29, 2025 by Betsey Horton

It’s official. I’m quitting this job. I can’t live like this for a year. It’s over. It’s done. And believe me when I tell you, I am a much better person for it. Last night, I came home from work and I was just… dead. I don’t mean tired. I...Read More

BLOG: Ugh

Posted on June 26, 2025August 29, 2025 by Betsey Horton

Today has definitely been a shitshow, so far. Didn’t get much sleep again last night, but I did a lot of writing and yoga Nidra. I got up early, got ready, and had everything ready to go. That was when I discovered I somehow lost my Octopus card that I...Read More

Thursday night. Feeling about a thousand times better than I did this morning. Turns out you can’t just fire people with no warning and leave them on the streets with nothing, so that’s great news for me! Yeah, they actually have a whole system of accountability that they are 100%...Read More

Morning after. Finally got about 8 straight hours of sleep. I went out to meet a new HK friend who is not from work last night to ask for advice about my situation. It came down to… you have the HKID, so you can stay. I met this person on...Read More

Ugh. Fucking Donald Trump. What a fucking shitshow. I hate everything he does. Everything. Every fucking thing. The doormen just asked me how I feel about Trump. I made this exact face at him: >:( He promptly responded by saying, “I don’t like him either. He’s a Troublemaker.” Seriously, bro....Read More

Currently sitting in a random park somewhere. I am very grateful I got to have a nice afternoon lunch on Monday because this week has been terrible. Did I ever get any sleep last night? No. Did I fuck up 2/3 of my presentations this morning? Yes. Oh my god,...Read More

Wednesday. 2:20am. Fell asleep at 9:45pm but woke up again around 1am. I tried to do some yoga Nidra to go back to sleep but it didn’t work so I made myself some tea instead. I’m glad I got to be happy on Monday afternoon during my bougie lunch break...Read More

Bonjour à tout le monde! Currently sitting at my new favourite grocery store/restaurant/butchery. It’s called Feather & Bone. Yes, I know what’s you’re thinking, and no, I don’t care that I sound like a pretentious douchebag, because that’s exactly what I am. It’s one of those places that only serves...Read More
