5 years, 3 months and 8 days

Hi (to the few faithful & silent) readers,

Apologies that my blog has been truly boring (not reflective of who I am... :p).

Thank you for reading my blog. I have been blogging since 25th June 2006. Therefore, my relationship with this blog has been 5 years, 3 months and 8 days long. It has been a while yeah?

A lot has changed since 2006. Let's look at some of the changes I identified.

Changes I Identified (what I can think of)...

1. Continuation of education (Honestly, I did not think I will return to school since I'm a generally lazy person).

2. Re-entered into a romantic relationship with a former boyfriend (It's ancient history now. Nonetheless it was inevitable, I'm glad I moved on and became better & stronger!).

3. Experiences from jobs of different nature (Totally worth my time!).

4. Be employed in the same job for more than a year (Yay! Considering that I'm easily bored once unmotivated and unentertained... I have done it twice now!).

5. Met people that changed my life (Turning points in my life to realise my goals).

6. Identified the goals I want to achieve for most part of my life (This includes my constant conscious effort).

7. Participated in more voluntary activities/events for causes I support.

8. Give to causes I believe in.

9. Have a different take on romantic relationships (I'm not sure is this good or bad but I've became a more skeptical person).

10. Now enjoys decorating my room.

11. Drinks much more coffee.

12. More aware of money I spent.

13. More positive and hopeful.

14. Much more politically aware.

15. More open to alternative ideas (To a certain extent, I would qualify who I was as a bias person. Not that now I'm not. It is just that I make more effort to listen).

Etc...

What Hasn't Changed (what I can think of)?

1. I still love God.

2. I still love my family and close ones deeply.

3. I still enjoy daydreaming (Yes, my lower primary school form teacher actually type-written in my reportcard that I seem to be constantly doing so).

4. I am still pretty much headstrong.

5. I still can't be sure who I am going to marry, whether I will have kids, how long will I be on this planet and the list goes on...

Hope you had fun reading... Have a nice day!

Love is Kind

So I went jogging and insisted on continuing even when the heavens gave me clue that it'll pour anytime soon.  It rained and I was drenched.  Since it was getting late, I had to walked on by to get home.  While I was at the traffic junction, a contruction worker sheltered me with his umbrella for a short distance.  I was really touched by his kindness.  Thank you, Lord for showing your love through the people around me. 

Honouring Mr Lee Kuan Yew

23 Mar 2015: While getting ready for work, Nat told me that Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on. I didn't expect the multitude of sadness that followed. Found out that Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong would be addressing Singaporeans on his father's death at 8am and my heart went out to him. As I was watching his address, I am reminded that no matter who he is, he is still his father's son. When I see the profile and cover pictures of many of my friends changed into mono colours, I see unity and appreciation. By human standards perhaps we may debate about whether he is a good leader, but I believe he was called to serve with the others when Singapore really needed one. RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

A Fall

Dear Blog, I just had a fall while running in my flat-heeled office shoes. I didn't feel embarrassed dropping flat on the floor. Instead, I felt a growing pain from both my knees. My brain signaled for my legs to walk and soon I reached my destination with blood-crying knees. Why was I so careless? Was browsing through my past entries, time has passed and well, a lot more to improve on in my life. Occasionally, I wish to say, be contented. However, I can't. Because it simply is not good enough. I guess, that's what a twenty something should be contemplating. After all, only about a quarter of our lives is gone. Had been playing RISK board game with my honey on 2 consecutive Sundays. This game taught me a couple of lessons:- (a) Nobody is declared the winner unless the game ceases, by either party surrendering or by conquering the lands of your opponent; (b) Even if you are losing huge armies, it doesn't mean you are the loser; (small can fight big) (c) Take it easy!
