Ready, Get Set...
Go!
Yes, so I have resigned, not to my fate, but from my current job.
I am heading over to greener pastures, and I certainly hope I can learn and achieve more along the way.
Cheers!
Love and Romance?.
Janise posted something about love and romance lasting forever, if possible? I… am not one to like romantic gestures. Maybe I found them cheesy. Maybe I am unable to appreciate the typical notions of romance, but I can be pretty sure I feel it in everything a fulfilling relationship can provide.
I prefer to see romance in the places where romance isn’t usually found, so if he washes the dishes, I see it as an act of romantic love. SERIOUSLY!
Loving somebody is a privilege, not a right. So I treasure the privilege to be able to come home to him every night, and we will talk about how our day went, and then we watch some silly TV, play with the cats and then go to sleep. I guess it’s a privilege that can be seen as mundane, but there is goodness in that sort of mundaneness.
Flavour of The Month.
Heard this on the radio many moons back and loved the lyrics, but it didn’t occur to me to search for the Artiste. Came across this song again while editing something for Pretty Little Liars and found it to be the opening theme… which was utterly apt
Grey.
Feeling quite the emo. Not sure if it’s the weather or because it’s just Monday. Maybe it’s the upcoming time of the month.
Going to bury myself in work. That should work.
It’s Time to Move On.
Like what the gahmen says “it’s time to move on…”
I guess that applies to certain parts of my life.
Moving out of the comfort zone, moving towards a deeper learning curve… which I would have to climb slowly and steadily.
Got my bank loan for the studies, and aiming to get good grades, hopefully!
I can only hope I don’t fall over backwards and 跌个狗吃屎!
Glad to be moving on.
Granny.
Dear (maternal) Granny,
I have never been really close to you all these years…
but when I saw you in that casket the other day, I felt tears welling up in my eyes.
I remembered you as the tall, respect-commanding lady… and as the years wore on, you shrunk quite a little.
And then you left, so suddenly… but our only consolation is that you went peacefully and painlessly in your sleep.
Goodbye now… and I do believe you are off to a better place.
Striding Forward, One Step at a Time.
As you guys may know, I am finally starting on my part-time degree course next month. Have applied for the bank loan this afternoon, hence upping my debts up a notch or so… but investing in education is hardly a mistake, I believe?
It’s time to do just that – get the frigging paper, and move out of my comfort zone… out of what I have been doing for 10 years, and go out there and strike out in another area where I may just excel so much more.
I am seriously tightening my purse strings, for this would be a tough time for me financially… but to enrich my life to infinity and beyond, I’d just have to pay and pay and pay and pay and pay. And pay some more.
I’ll have to take it one step at a time.
Step 1: Getting the Distinctions.
Goodbye, MotorImage.
You were going to charge me a frigging $499 for the 40k servicing. That is bloody blue murder ok!!!
I am not going to give my business to you, not anymore.
Even though I drive a unique car, I don’t think it warrants such a hefty price-tag on the servicing packages. The engine is a regular Kei-car engine, the parts are regular parts…
So I say screw you and your 杀人放火 pricing scheme.
I am going over to Star J. OH YEAH OH YEAH OH YEAH!!!
Turning 7...
On this day… my blog turns 7.
7 bloody years since I’ve started blogging.
7 bloody years since I broke up with my 1st boyfriend.
7 bloody years since my life truly started to make sense.
I first started out on Blogger.
Blogger then became unreliable, and I shifted to a Dreamweaver-coded HTML-based website that I have to painstakingly FTP to a free webhost manually, page by page.
Then the free webhost went bust and I had to shift back to Blogger.
Then came the wonderful Liquidblade came along and once I knew the wonderful CMS that is Wordpress, I’ve never looked back since.
This blog chronicled the extreme ups and the extreme downs in the past 7 years, and it felt great reading back on some of the awfully emotional stuff.
I write better on a whim, and I write even better when I am in extreme pain, either emotionally or physically.
But ever since I turned happier after meeting him… I’ve blogged much less.
But still. It’s a great platform to keep myself reminded of certain events in my life, although I’ve always failed to update every now and then.
But still.
I’m still me. =)
