*insomnia*

listening to Bob Marley's "No Women No Cry"
this song never fails to make me feel better..
no men no cry by pam though

~

the past few days were pretty neutral...
my mom spoke to me that day...
my life should be taking a turn soon, i hope...
sometimes i felt like i'm forced to face adulthood...
my mom gave me a necklace...
wearing it reminded me - you're an adult now...
i'll treasure it...
i love my parents...
just not too sure how to express it...

i realized my general knowledge is really poor...
i got to read more...
i feel dumb...
i can't recall facts from my geography textbooks...
darn...

~

met up with someone i don't know but definitely need to...
felt like a blind date...
without flowers as the indicator though...
i don't know why and don't bother to ask...
the moment we sat down...
we chatted probably non-stop for 3 straight hours...
all i did was blabber about things that matter and many which did not...
it was so comfortable...
felt like an old friend...
an old pair of jeans i chose to wear...
and felt yes, a long lost feeling...

~

was on the way home from bukit timah...
saw a lady on a scooter...
cool...
maybe i should do that in the coming year...
but i guess pop and mom would strongly be against it...
so at the back of my head, "forget it."

insomnia for days already...
tell me why...
i don't even know what to do...
my mind is thinking yes but still...
i'm exhausted...
so why can't i sleep...
if there's a fairy tale godmother...
i only have a very simple wish...
just let me sleep...
better luck for me tonight...
i wish and i hope...

work has been irritatingly routine. day in and out. life is fading it's colour. can't break the chains. have nowhere to run to. stare at the PC screen, move inches on the mouse and hit the keyboard by hundreds each day, fighting hard to keep my eyes half open past lunch hour. life is ticking by fast. save me from this. it's nearing 2 months now. haven't encountered much challenging tasks. it's about a year now. not earning and saving much. it's getting harder to breathe. tell me what to do.

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
