Reliving the Past

Today is the start of the fasting month and I can tell you one thing...Im not quite handling it well....*groans*. But I know that this is just a start and being someone who makes noise whenever she's hungry, it's so not going to be easy. Then again, I can just pull this through like I always do. And then being stuck behind this table of mine may seem like a good thing because I will not tire myself so easily like my previous job where I had to travel all around. It would be just like that time I was on attachment in a certain room in a polyclinic where lunch time would be spent sleeping. Heck, even when I was not fasting during another attachment last year in a faraway poly (one of the things why I was glad that the department closed down..pfftt), I would also sleep. Too bad I dont have the luxury of sleeping here and fasting is a pretty lonely affair since Im the only Malay among my office colleagues.
 
Anyhoo, I received an earlier birthday present from Mariah in a form of a cd rom. No that cd rom was not a present but rather, what was inside the cd rom although my brother thought that it was a nifty idea to have an advertiser on it. Well, I would say that it was really well done coz I dont have as much patience when it comes to making a self made movie. I gave her twenty shots of myself through the years and went scanner happy. At 1am in the morning.
 
But I was surprised that there were many unseen photos of myself that were mostly taken during our gatherings. I try to figure out a way to grab those photos and keep it for memory sake...hee. Who knows in the future, I may start my scrapbooking collection again? I dont work in the office for nothing..haha. That loosely translates that I can try to use the colour photo. I mean I dont need big photos...just have several on an A4 sized paper and it's good to go.
 
About these photos, I looked younger (duh...) and looking so adorable with my bob hairstyle and a hairclip attached. Still the more I looked at these photos, I kinda sensed something that was not right with them. I seemed to look detached like there was this hint of sadness despite grinning in some photos. I mean i know I suffered from inferiority complex but from the looks of it, it looked pretty bad. But hey, no matter how embarassing that hairstyle was, it was still part of me and I treasure every single photo that I had taken, happy or otherwise.
 
Thank u mutton for the lovely present. Sure it made me revisit the past but it is in those years, that I have got to know a friend  like who is for keeps no matter how dodgy I looked and no matter how weird you think I was...or still is. Anyway, my dungeon is always open for company :D

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
