Feeling the Chills in the Start of Feb

Before you know it, February is here. One month has gone since I last watched The Wanted performed for the New Year countdown. Financially, it  has been a good month. I *crosses fingers and toes* hope that NOTHING will suddenly come and attack my current savings and I'll be biting those same fingers that I crossed to see how am I going to survive this family, yet again. 

But always think positive and always work hard. This is my current motto of the year. I don't want to think about how much sleep I have to sacrifice and how much work I have to do. I just have to do the best I can. There are a lot of busy and successful people out there and they have the same amount of time as me. It's a matter of how strict I am in maintaining the many aspects of my life including time management and personal finances.

It's not exactly a good start to February for me though, because I came down with a fever yesterday and I had to heavily rely on painkillers to subside the fever so that I can continue with my work. It helps that I get plenty of rest although after the fever had subsided, I had to get up from bed and do some work.

So, lucky for me, I managed to complete the set of 8 Birthday Cards and they're not the type which I do quickly a few at the same time. I actually take time to sketch out the designs because I want to make each one a quality piece but of course, whether they turn out the same exact thing as I sketched out, is a completely different thing. It's called adapting ;p I have many orders on my plate surprisingly as many as *gulp* 3 orders which is good news of course as my target this year is to have at least one order per week. So that is more than enough. I have to just keep going and even if things don't go exactly as planned, like today I plan to this or do that, I just have to keep going, if you know what I mean. There's always the next day or another time that I can schedule for it.

Just keep going and try to catch up :)

Like in the wise words of Dory 'just keep swimming...just keep swimming'

If January hasn't been such a good month for you, chin up because that's not the end of the world. Don't rule your life based purely on emotions. Make wise decisions and quantify each day with gratefulness and by doing things that will add quality to your life. And if you have been under the weather, like me enduring the aftermath of fever which is flu, get well soon :)

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...
