About Me




Hi, I'm Rahayu going under the name rahayupopz because well, I thought it's such a cute nickname. Life has always been a struggle but I try to think about all the good things that I have in life and always on the look out in making my life and my family's life better. 

Therefore, to cope with life, I often blog to clear my thoughts out. Most of the time, I don't go back and read my blog posts out of leisure, except to re-read and edit any obvious spelling mistakes. So I'm not your typical blogger who earn income from blog posts. I do however receive orders through my other blog.

Currently, I'm pursuing a diploma in business practice in a local poly under a part-time basis. It's a tiring affair and I know that it's not going to be easy. But it's always tough in the beginning for something better in the future, right? Speaking of which, I do one day also hope to earn a degree from Uni-Sim so yes people, let's make this a dream come true, baby!

I also hope that with me advancing in my career prospects with paper qualifications, I can finally get to achieve my other dream of seeing the world. I am keen in wanting to go Australia & London. They're such beautiful countries and once in awhile,  one needs to get out of the heat in Singapore and experience a cold & beautiful weather. 

Of course, life isn't just about chasing paper qualifications. Life is about making decisions that will ensure a better life for ourselves and for our loved ones, not just fret about things that we can't control. 


Thank you for visiting my humble blog!

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...
