Life Is All Sorts Of Funny

My to do list has about 20 pending items. And at the top of my head, I can think of about just another 6 things to add onto it, sans this blog post.

Readership has been really low. I was thinking of going on a hiatus. But that may just very well happen irregardless of whether or not I want to since I'll be traveling some - Singapore, Bali, Hong Kong, all pretty much back to back, and Korea at the end of the year; and occupying my downtime with activities that I hadn't managed to enjoy when I had a full time job.


This Is What It Feels Like - Armin van Buuren feat  Trevor Guthrie

So according to Wiki, Armin is born on the 25th of December. Christmas baby. And I kinda enjoy looking at his face. Hee.

Life teaches us lessons in many funny ways.

I tend to always preface my statements with "This is going to sound bad", "This is just my opinion", "This is just my thought", "This is just how I see it", "I may be wrong", "When I look at the situation".. For the most of it, I think it's because I don't want to be held responsible for the things I say or do. So best I remain neutral. It's not exactly a winning-at-life-strategy though I've realized.

All this Asian Games hype, is making me feel sad for not being a part of it. Sadness. Not that I was close to being a part of it, it was a long shot anyway.

I need to clean up my room. It's too dusty, and I own too much unnecessary things - for an example, I have 3 chairs in my room. And I only have one bum, or do people say a pair of bums?

I also need to start working out more before I turn into a fatty. Though it's really not my fault that the weather keeps getting in my way me thinks - I said I was going to run at 4pm, but it looks like it's gonna start pouring. Rather, I really secretly hope it pours big time. Such external locus of control.

Finally showed and gave the folks the lowdown of how I fell and the Mommy said, "What made you think you could jump over it?" My response, "My extremely high (but false) sense of confidence." Daddy said, "You forgot to factor in your weight".

For laughs.

P/s: Apparently, irregardless is not even a proper word.

1084 Days Later

Even the people whom we think are not capable of feeling any pain, they too, hurt in ways we do not understand.


Trap - 스윙스 & 유성은

On days like this, when I am not sure what the future holds, I find myself wondering if things may be different if past decisions were made differently. Or perhaps, if people were kinder to one another, would the lives of those who matter, be better? Or can we just say, everyone did their best, and no one could predict such an outcome. But there has to be a reason. Isn't it?

Life's big mystery aside..

It's finally time to bid farewell to the workplace I've come to love, despite the occasional "I hate my job" rants. I've learnt much, but I think the biggest takeaway would be in the friends I've made - they're the best you can ask for. I am now genuinely afraid that I won't be able to find friends of the same kind at my new place (wherever that may be). But for the better or worse, these guys have taught me to be a better person. So hopefully, wherever I end up next, I'll be able to bring out the best in them too. Just like how this bunch has done for me.

2 years, 11 months, 18 days later, it's time to say Sayonara! xx

In Theory


Don't Crack Under Pressure - Tag Heuer

Uniqlo is fast becoming my favourite go to attire. I know I am a bit late, only now am I jumping onto their bandwagon but whatever. However, I do believe that you should always wait till they put out your favourites on sale before purchasing them.

For instance, I particularly like their ankle length leggings pants. Simply because the length is just right for me. Ha. The first time I bought it, it was the original price. Couple of days ago, I saw that it was on sales, and it was RM20 cheaper than when I bought my first pair.

And I guess Uniqlo's designs are so basic that they'll go with just about anything.

Think I'll watch re-runs of the Reply series tonight and tomorrow.

Teehee. Adorbs. Much.

Top 10

1. I finally got down to changing the batteries of my digital weighing scale, and I am back to being enemies with the machine.

2. Is it me, or do lense solution not come in travel friendly sizes. Most of them come in 120ml, but hello, handcarry limit is only 100ml!

3. I reckon I could do with keeping a calmer attitude when skippering. If I get panicked, so will my crew. And when my crew panics, I panic more. Vicious cycle which needs to end.

4. Also, I seriously need to start learning to steer in reverse. (-_-)

5. That's a curve ball you've just thrown at me my friend. What do I do now. Do I still look forward to the Raja Muda, or should I just drop those plans altogether?

6. I have the bad habit of... digging my ears (Sorry this information may be a bit gross). And I recently learnt that digging ones ears can lead to very severe infections, especially if your hands are not clean. And these infections can very easily lead to a loss of hearing. I am keeping my hands away from my ears, and for the most part of my face.

7. I have started this little project where I keep a shoebox in the corner of my room, and when I find an item that I hardly use (but is relatively new or has some value), I will put it into that shoebox. And come the end of every month, whatever that has remained in the shoebox will be donated.

8. This coming Friday will be my last official day at work. I'm part happy, part sad. But I guess that's the normal reaction one would have when leaving a good place, but stepping into a more exciting future perhaps.

9. My brows are a real mess. But I am reluctant to thread them because it'll just end up becoming too thin. And I need to get my fringe trimmed because this whole side parting business is making the balding line a tad too obvious for my liking.

10. Constipation problem? Drink Yakult. Works like magic. Seriously. No tummy twirls and cartwheels involved, and free of all that pain in between numerous toilet visits. At the end of the day, just a cleaner and healthier bowel, with one yummy little drink each day. P/s: Not paid to write this, but trust me on this one.

Have a great week ahead, and happy birthday in advance Malaysia!

Something Needs To Change

I just am not sure what. And or how.

Anyways, have you noticed that I changed my font? It seems to have added aesthetic value, but I dunno, I am a little torn because I think it's not as reader-friendly as the previous font. What do you think? Drop me a comment if you will. =)

I felt like a real fatty today. Ugh. Them flabby tummy. And in the case you didn't know, though I think I've tried to inform all of you (plus [+] minus [-]), I had a bad fall 2 weekends ago and required 5 stitches on my right shin while my left shin was badly scraped. Hence, I've been living an absolutely sedentary life, which mostly explains the fatty build up. Ugh. Boo. Heh.

The stitches have since come off, and I am glad to announce that the wounds are healing fine. I'll live with the scars if they really are here to stay. Reminder of one's youthful days stupidity.

I probably should get back into my exercise regime soon because there is no way in heaven that I will be cutting out on icecream and (minimal) carbs - I'm gonna attempt to make avocado & cheese toasties tomorrow morning for breakfast! Wish me luck, think the recipe is simple enough, so the luck is more for waking up early enough to prep. Teehee.

And how cool are these Cool Kids! Best with earphones on.


Cool Kids - Echosmith

I'm shedding skin once more. Lotion lotion potion please work please pretty. Neck is achy too, get well soon Neck. Should probably work on my to do list, I spy with my no-so-little eyes plenty of things that needs to get done.

I hope the week has been kind to all of you, Friday tomorrow! TGIF in advance! xx

P/s: If I hadn't told you about my fall, it's not because you're not as important, it's really just that I haven't seen you in person for awhile and I don't want you to worry unnecessarily! /love

Discipline


With All I Am - Hillsongs

Many things in life, boils down to simple discipline. How we choose to spend our time, how we achieve success, how we treat others, how we behave.

Sunday is a day where I usually find myself reflecting on the past week, and thinking about what and how to welcome the next.

Have a great week ahead! xx

Booyah!

       

        You enjoy variety and new challenges. You're always looking to shake things up a bit.
You are deeply emotional. You are a very soulful person, and at times you're downright fiery.

When you want to get your way, you're assertive and gusty. You are a good actor, even when you're not feeling brave.
You are easily excited and inspired. You are engaged with the world in many different ways.
