Being Presentable & Confident

I've decided that while I'm trying to lose the extra kilos, which is a futile effort but I am still not giving up on it, I am not going to let my confidence level drop down low just because I'm not as slim and attractive as other girls. It's ok because what is important is being comfortable in my own skin by walking and presenting myself in confidence. It's also ok if I'm not a head turner because what is more important is being thankful that I am here right now and doing my best to ensure that everyday is a blessing and that I'm doing my best in everything that I choose to do.

Of course I've said this many times in my previous blog posts like why can't I attract any guy, even the gym guy whom I've been crushing on for pretty long. I believe that he'll make a good friend with his grit, determination and quiet personality. But yah, if I don't rock his boat, it's ok! It doesn't make me any lesser attractive. I still quietly hope he talks to me and I don't care if it doesn't lead to anywhere, even a friendship, but I just want to be able to hear him talk to me one day. A girl can wish, can't she?

So yah, before I turn this into an unrequited crush story, I would like to work hard on presenting myself to the world in the best that I can. Yes, even though I take a few extra minutes nowadays, dolling myself up if it's going to help me raise my confidence level a notch a bit. If your personality and confidence shines through, I realize that you can just be in slacker shirt, jeans and a pair of sandals but you will still have this air of confidence that is not bordering towards arrogance but simply telling the world that you are ready to tackle the day head on.

Whether you're single or you're with somebody, it doesn't matter. Never stop taking care of your mental and physical self. You are worth much more than how you perceive yourself to be, whether you turn heads or in my case, losing hope that he will one day to talk to me. If it's not meant to be, life still goes on. Who knows, there will be someone even better that comes along who thinks that you're worth making friends with because in his eyes, you are not just what you are on the outside, but more importantly on the inside.

Take heart that if you choose to focus on living life to the fullest, continue being presentable and confident, you will care less about frivolous things but care more about people who give a damn about you.

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...
