Just keep trying

This week I saw two similar posts in Instagram story one is by @no_eye_shadow and @twomanylegs which were sharing about two cats, Rosa and Ruru that both of them are feisty and don’t like to give up when it comes to try something new. They will keep trying and trying. For example when the resident cats didn’t welcome them initially. Ruru will sulk for awhile, then he will be back to his usual self. I hope I can be more […]

Catching up with old pals – books

Since last week I’ve been spending times in my hometown for Lunar New Year. And it also means that I have time to catch up with some books (and manga) I had in my room. “Don’t sweat small stuffs at work” is not a newly bought book but rather a book I bought more than 10 years ago. And it was the translated version. There was a few pages and points which resonates with me lately, and gave me some […]

How much time do you have for …

Have you asked yourself this question before? For example, how much time you have for reading? Or for exercising? And so on. In Twitter, one of my favorite writer always put a remark x mins reading in his tweet, followed by the blog link. This is not new. Just that it resonates with me recently. At work, I discovered how to use Tempo with JIRA, which is a tool to track your time working on something. And these two things […]

Challenge or chore

This month, I’m taking a challenge created by one of my friends, to log 50km in a month. I just agreed to it without thinking as a result, and find halfway that it’s very hard to accomplish. Then I find it more as a chore because I hate to not complete it, while it’s too much stretch for me to complete it. Later I do my math, that in average, I ran short 1-2km mid week and 5km on weekend, […]

Tidying up

This week I saw in my Facebook feed that my friends were sharing about KonMari. Perhaps because she made appearance in Netflix or it’s near Lunar New Year which generally associated with spring cleaning. I read her books around 2 years ago, it was so easy to read and enjoyable reading material. I’ve been trying to do my share bit by bit too since then. Then it came down to me that actually it’s not just about possession. But also […]

Do you know your main mission and sub mission?

This is my catch up post as last week I didn’t manage to post. I’ll post another one for this week. I’ve been following Fire Emblem series since I have my 3DS, Awakening and Conquest. And I really love it. They have Switch version and it is hack and slash game. It’s my first time to play this gameplay but I observed my brother play another hack and slash game before. I didn’t know that it’s actually quite fun to […]

A chore

Last week, I was reminded about few things that I have been trying to avoid to do but it’s getting out of hand. House cleaning. The meme below represents me regarding chore But one thing I also notice is, it’s actually feels good when you completed it. (Strangely I get the same feeling after completing a run too) The first few minutes, my heart will say that the conditions are not ideal, like need to have breakfast first, need to […]

How we see things

I think when you heard similar things from different sources, it’s a sign from the universe to our problem. Or could be just a gentle reminder too. There are few important events since last week at work and as the saying goes, when it rains, it pours. So it’s coming to me one by one at steady pace. One of my colleague has a term called project hoarder, which happened to another colleague because that person like to collect projects. […]
