A Classmate Gathering cum Birthday Dinner at Satay By the Bay

I'm so happy I get to have another round of satay and grilled  prawns! Yums. But what I loved even more is the turn out of the class reunion. I don't know if it's technically called reunion because we haven't finish school yet, lol. Let's hang tight for yet another one year. Yes, you heard me right. ONE YEAR. It felt only yesterday that I studied like God knows how much I can squeeze into this small brain of mine.

Anyway, not only was it a gathering, it was a birthday celebration for a very very very dear classmate of ours. She has been very encouraging, and generous, not only in treating us on more than one occasion, but in sharing her notes that she took more than a day to prepare, just like that to us. Without her law notes, I don't know if I could even pass the second business law test because I seriously didn't have time to make notes because I was so busy at that time, making 300 cards. 

She had her own setbacks too last year and almost wanted to give up. But she pushed through and she encouraged us all to do the same too when we had our setbacks.

I simply love this class and I can't thank God enough for the wonderful company of people, knowing that I'm this really shy and introvert person who often struggle in making new friends.

There was some confusion over where to meet but in the end, despite having to walk quite a far bit and my classmate complaining over the heat, it was a worthwhile treat. I feel like going there again. The satay was alright but I really loved the roasted chicken and the yummeh satay prawn. I think I would defo go again this month IF my performance bonus this month is worth it, lol.

We only had one group photo but it was definitely a photo to be treasured in years to come. By the way, I didn't take these photos which explains why the photo taking is way better.

The food is from Satay By the Bay and you can take the shuttle bus from outside Marina Bay.

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...
