Happy New Year 2024

I know, it’s way way late for this. There had been some internal monologue happened offline. To post or not to post. My brain brought me to a rabbit hole of thinking why is this and why is that. It’s constant internal struggle. Sometimes I also wonder why. I didn’t have such a struggle last time. I can channel my thought without any issues. There was a period of time when you feel “alone”. Because you and your friends are […]

About feeling as failure

Last week I was about to write a post related to pain when you’re holding on things too long, which was resonates well with what happened to me last week. What really happened was I didn’t write it. I was having cramps and made me didn’t feel like want to do anything. Earlier this week I had situation with my foster cat. He started acting up (meowing at night) which hasn’t been done for months. I might have short fuse […]

Week 2 entry in 2023

I’m paying my panic in advance. I have a team event this week on Tue and Wed, and we need to arrive at the venue 9am sharp. It’s really stressful. I’m not used to 9am office time anymore after the last 3 years, having calls in the evening and all. Legit, I had been panicking since the weekend before the week started. Some said panic or worry about takes the joy in the present. But I just can’t help it. […]

Overthinking

In my line of work as project manager, I’m used to make worst case scenario because when running a project, we need to be prepared. So my brain usually will think few if-then-else scenarios and prepare some contingencies when certain events happened. However, it also makes my heart panic from low key panic to really panic. No matter how prepared I am. That makes me thinking, does it have any relation between as we grow older, we will have low […]

Hello March!

I haven’t been posting weekly like I used to do it in previous years. I feel jaded and posting for the sake of posting. Chased by the reminder that I need to tick this to move on. So, this year I tried something different. I’ll just post at least once a month and it’s more as reflection what had happened in previous month. So here are some of my lesson learnt in February On dealing with kid. I adopted a […]

A moment to appreciate

We often forget about things around us until we don’t have it. For example, when you’re away from home, you started to think about all the food or the items you can get easily on daily basis and then you don’t have access to them while you’re traveling. (Which happened to me as I’m currently traveling for work). Or, you may also miss someone (human or pets) whom you meet on daily basis, part of your routine, then you are […]

Memorable lesson from the past

If you’re asked by your friend, what was the most memorable lesson which you learned recently, what would that be? For me, it’s classic lesson, never judge a book by its cover. I made new friends from cat community and I find that there are very positive people which I like to speak to. They always able to see the bright side of some mishaps. Which I think not many people can do it. For me, I tend to go […]

Disconnect to connect

Now every weekend my iPhone gives me a report on how long my screen time is. And some days I have Instagram on top of the list or some days I have Whatsapp. But mostly, it’s either work app or social media app. Even at home, I still glued to my phone running errands, like online shopping for groceries and other items. I can do almost all of my work stuffs from phone too. With exception of creating document or […]
