Repetition can be boring. Doing the same thing over and over again. Or can be scary too when you need to deal with some unpleasant experience again and again over short period of time. For example, cockroaches in your house keep showing up. =_=! (Ugh..) But one thing I realize too is depending on the gap between one and another, it can be a good thing. Because it’s like a training, like it or not, just get used to it. […]

Are you working on your goals or your cause?
Every new year, I plan my yearly goals, like what are the activities I’d like to do, what are the new things I’d like to learn and so on. Some are completed and became my new favorite past time. But some just became bucket list activities, been there done that, ticked and hardly do it again because of new activities or just pushed down naturally. There was a time when I was still trying my bestest to achieve it and […]
It’s new year again
Late late..! I’m late in writing this week blog post due to holiday mood is striking me. We just had a Lunar New Year celebration last week and it completely turned off my brain for many things. Interesting event happened to me was when I flew back to Singapore from my hometown. (Yes, holiday is over). I found out a movie which I haven’t watched and wanted to watch – Pokemon: Pikachu I choose you (ポケットモンスター キミにきめた). I missed out […]
The lessons from traveling alone
Have you ever travelled alone? Or often travel alone either for leisure or business. For me, I don’t usually travel alone for both cases. Well, flying alone to other place is normal to me, but usually I’ll meet someone at the destination and going travel together. When you’re traveling with your friends in those foreign land, it’s very comforting to always have someone to converse with in language you are comfortable to speak. In cases of the place of destination […]
The art of taking a break
My friend often told me that I tend to arrange things back to back. And as a result, quite often I was rushing from one place. I feel accomplished when I finished all my errands. And I think it’s somehow addictive to me. Until recently, I easily fell sick due to pack activities. Or rather, my mind was quite tense maintaining all the details for the errands. And when you fell sick, your physical strength drops so, it will make […]
Looking back and connecting the dots
Third weekend since new year just passed, I think I kind of used to the rhythm of this year plan. This week I had an interesting conversation with two people about what’s next for them. One of them is new to the workforce, while the other one is not. The young cub told us his dilemma about finding a permanent job. Both of us shared our journey back then, about moving forward and be selfish for our growth. I told […]

My 2018 missions
Happy New Year! First post of the year is always dedicated to the first week in that year. And this post is written while I’m having road trip over the weekend with group of friends. When I looked back (or flipped over my agenda), I thought of “did I really do that?” And when I saw the photos, the memories are starting to resurface. Yeah, I did. (Good job, give yourself a pat on the shoulder) There were few firsts […]
