who lyzzts is
in an effort to give some context to the person behind this blog: I'm Alyaa (pronounced: al-ya). I was born in Malaysia and have spent most of my life in the Klang Valley, with a few years in Indonesia, East Malaysia, and the United States.
some of my hobbies are rock climbing and reading. i also take care of my plants.
i love rock climbing. it's the only activity that i'd willingly do over any other activities, easy. although i would always wish that i'm 'better' at it.
i'm married to the most loving person i know, who has the biggest heart and who's made my life and myself a lot calmer. that's all i'll say here because i could get too emotional talking about it.
some of my fears include not living a full-life (read: dying or getting sick before i get to experience the things i want to experience), my parents getting old, and cicaks (you can look this up here).
epilogue
i do hope to build something out of this blog - an archive of some sort to look back when i'm old and dementia-prone and also in hopes that my stories, experiences, and musings would resonate with other people across the world.
welcome, to my softly neurotic digital diary 🌀
