Things Can Only Get Better

I hope my luck didn't turn out for the worse...again...coz I just bought a quad eyeshadow online from Stila. I wanted it so badly for quite a long time and told myself when I get my pay, I'm gonna get it and even though I am on the way to financial recovery, I guess one little item won't hurt :S 


Sigh. It will be my last make up purchase, I promise! Damn those youtube videos!


Hey, speaking of luck, how many of you actually believe in things like astrology, palm reading and what not? While I think all of them are interesting as they somehow give a sneak peek of your fate and your personality, I don't believe in them totally. It's not that I don't, I just can't. Like now, under the Chinese astrology, people born in the year of the rooster, will face some sort of financial crisis and I just cannot start believing that what they say is true. Things happen for a reason in life and at times, it's an after effect of how you have been leading your life. 


But of course, since they're offering snippets of your future, curiosity can get the better off me but I just have to not take it too seriously. If we know what life has to offer for us in future, it just takes the fun out of it. Based on my palm reading, by my colleague, she said that I will get married in future. And all these years, I thought I was destined to be single all my life and I have already embraced  my singlehood..haha. Of course I know you heard me whine before like how I wish I get asked out on a date but no, I promise you won't hear of such stuffs again. Why? There's many more things that I have in mind which need more immediate attention than not being able to score a date.


Anyway, while the good news can be so heartening to hear, it's the bad news that can set some gloom and doom in our life and may even upset it. While there are things that we can change in our life, some of them we just can't and we have to just live with it. Whatever the circumstances, we must always be of the stand that we have to be truly happy in our life because we only got one. Even those who are seriously sick, they are encouraged to be strong mentally so that they can spend their remaining days not feeling dreadful. I guess you can say, we have to live our life to the fullest.


So if you are like me, currently facing difficulties, take heart that things can only get better. Meanwhile, don't just sit there and do nothing. Get help if necessary. Rise out of this poverty circle or the difficulty you are facing. Remember that God will help you in more ways than one and He doesn't just leave you in a lurch like that. Do remember, that if you think your life sucks at the moment, there are other people who are in far worse situation than you are. It's also one of the reasons why I try to not be so bothered about some stuffs like how my abs are not flat, how I'm not as pretty as some people, why I'm still single blah blah blah. I just want to be a happier person by doing the things I like and improving on my current life.


Currently I have started my own project to make accessories and make moolah out of them and hopefully, in more than a weeks' time when I get my performance bonus, it will be more than last year. Not that I'm greedy but I have a family to support and while I am more than glad to provide for them, I also have my own needs. Of course I won't go overboard and overspend but I am just going to use the money as an opportunity to start on a new clean slate and have lesser outstanding bill payments. While I thought I could applaud myself as a good saver, I guess you could say that some things in life are just not within my control. Even if I have to start all over again, it's okay. I just have to lean to slowly pick myself up and begin the journey to financial freedom again.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
