Following The 10 Year Challenge

So there was this viral thing going on where people were posting the 10 year challenge where they would show pics of them ten years ago and now. I don't know how it started but it seemed interesting. Don't have to do any of those acrobatic or dangerous moves like the moving car dance thing. That was stupid. Anyway, in a blink of an eye, 10 years would have passed and the greatest shocker would be when we thought we looked the same as we did back then but reality is, we don't, haha. Sure some people may be luckier as in they look even better than they were 10 years ago. Age can be kind to many but can be cruel too, haha. Like my thinning hair. I've always had a love-hate relationship with my hair because it is constantly all over the place and messy. When I kept my hair longer most times, it would look voluminous but messy. Yet now, it is a different story. Looked flat and shapeless. So I figured that maybe it's better being kept shorter so less obvious that my ...

Rocky & Eventful Start to 2019

So about three weeks have passed since we did the countdown for the New Year. And how has things been going? Well, I should say that there was some joy, new discoveries, sickness and there were tears shed as well. It's quite a roller coaster ride of emotions but nevertheless, it's the life experiences that shape us. For me, I have this annoying sore eye thing going on and off since last week. And now it's back on. There's a little sore underneath the eye lid that is causing the irritation and even though it's a little uncomfortable and teary at times, my vision isn't that affected. Other than that, I am also trying to be a little cautious on spending though based on past experiences, this may be quite a futile effort. But I don't know, perhaps things will be slightly different this year? Since I am no longer the sole breadwinner of my family. My brother is now working full time but he is not paying the bills yet. I am. So maybe, I am technically still a br...

Happy New Year 2019! Hope & Faith As My Central Theme

Happy New Year, everyone! A new year means having the whole year again to face life's challenges, victories, learning new things, letting go and many other things in between. My 2018 was the same, nothing out of the ordinary. However, the people around me, especially those that were close to me, they experienced many happy or joyous occasions and I was thrilled that they let me join in with the celebrations. For example, a good friend's wedding, my brother's coming out of the army parade,  a friend's son's first birthday and an open house held by a ex colleague from my workplace from more than 10 years ago. On a personal note, I didn't manage to achieve what I wanted in life and basically all I tried to do was trying to survive each and every day from life's challenges. Financial difficulties, dealing with a manager who micro manages everything and don't trust my work and a mum who also micro manages my life. My social life is still as awkward as ev...
