Finding Love & Wedding Bells



Just last week, I went to two weddings on two separate weekends within the same week. This has never happened before, lol. I hardly go to weddings even though occasionally I get the invites. But being in one can be quite fun especially nowadays they cater a variety of food serving not just the usual wedding dishes, but they will hire vendors that will make traditional food on the spot or even creative food like fried banana fritters with cheese. Oh and for both of the weddings I attend, they served ice cream too....yum. 

Okay besides that, lol...the other thing I tend to notice is how the dais nowadays look so grand so big, enough to fit the whole extended family. They would be so creative with the set up compared to back in the days where most of the time, the dais would be pretty small and more traditional looking and basic colours. 

I must appreciate all these details like the colour scheme and the decorations and all because I know I will never experience any of these in my life, haha. Yes I know that sounds so negative but like I've explained in many of my earlier posts, some people aren't cut out for married life and I'm one of them. I don't feel like I'm alone because there are many single people out there too and they're living a fulfilling life too. I'm not saying when you're married, your life is over. If you get a partner that understands your needs and how despite the union, you are still your own unique individual who wishes to pursue your dreams and aspirations. 

I'm happy that I know of people who have gone through heartbreak found people to be their soulmates in times of their need where they feel lost thinking that they will never find love. My heartiest congratulations to them :)

I had to attend this wedding because I would get to see some of my former poly classmates. Although we did a few meet ups after we graduated, it's always fun to see them and hear them interact. I'm always in awe how people can talk to one another so fluently in a small group while I get stumped. But I like listening to them because it will give me a sneak peek on how people go about their lives and they also share interesting stories that I will laugh or feel sad about.

We also talked about how many of us are planning or are already pursuing degree. Knowing that some of them already did get started or coming soon, I feel like I want to start sooner. But now isn't quite a good time too because my brother is not home most of the time so if I were to come home late from evening classes, there is no one at home with my mum. Also, I need to concentrate first on saving some money and earning more as well. Whether or not I need a degree is another matter unless I want to get a new job. So I'm still thinking about this too. I mean it's going to be costly and it has to put to good use some how right. To me, it will be more like a sense of accomplishment rather than to just get a job with a higher pay but of course, other people will think otherwise.

So anyway, here are the pics where you can tell I didn't take them, haha. But still, worth sharing. Enjoy!

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

A Trip Down to Light to Night Festival 2018 : Civic District

Last week, my brother and I went to an outdoor event called the Light to Night Festival 2018 at the Civic District area. So it turned into a host of colours in various parts of the Civic District attracting crowds, both local and foreign. Nearby, there was a line up of stalls selling various food and trinkets and even though the entrance was quite muddy due to a slight rain and foot traffic.  The National Gallery transformed into a kaleidoscope of colours and it was also an interactive event as visitors could stomp on these special platforms that would supposedly light up the colours. I liked watching the colours change on the building facade but I liked it more when you could see the light in different depth creating 3D effects which I didn't see in these light exhibitions. But I guess the emphasis was more on colours so I can't complain much, haha. Further down, there were several other buildings as well and they too transformed into these colourful blocks such as

How to Be Motivated? Start Now.

The first step is always the hardest. But to me, the best way to get around and be motivated is to just...get up and do it. Then you'll be in the way of things and realize what was the hype all about..haha. Honestly, I'm not always motivated. I'm on of those who would rather laze on the couch and just sleep through. But I don't want to do that all the time. It's difficult for me to have a quality life if that is what I just want to do. I can't be able to have a sustainable second income from my online shop. I can't get promoted if I keep making mistakes at work. I can't get good grades to get my modular certificate from my studies. What do I do if I am not motivated the day before? I just do MORE the next day to make up for the so-not-motivated me. But I don't want to always be stuck in a rut like that. I want to be able to keep moving and just do it instead of doing rushed work at the last minute and not being happy with the results. No point wa
