New change doesn’t necessarily means a better change.That’s what I feel lately.I miss the old wordpress where it doesn’t have blocks, where it’s just paragraph. Maybe it’s just me feeling sentimental about oldies as currently Tiktok FYP is full of 90s boybands making comeback. Did you know that Spice Girls was 25 years ago? Gosh~ Had a catch up this weekend with friends who is going to go back to US as company is pulling expats to go back to […]

Which team are you at?
“I’m team Canon”, “I’m team Nikon” or “I’m team android”, “I’m team iOS” and so on. This is quite common bickering back then among me and my friends. To the extent we call this “our religion”, depending on the community, ie, photography, mobile phone, etc. Come to think of it now, I feel silly yet I had good times debating those with my friends. But, out there this can be quite nasty. Some keyboard warriors just bashed others and look […]
To give yourself a pat on your back
There was one event I joined for the first time last week, Cat Adoption Drive. I usually come as visitor than as participant. In June I rescued a cat from my block because she was new to the territory and has been chased by resident cat. Here is June’s story. It was first time for both of us to join this event. And both of us were nervous. The crowd was overwhelming. I feel lucky that we have friends helping […]
One step at a time
What happened to me last week reminds me of my mantra during running that always one step at a time. And repeat till you reach your goal. I recently rescued a kitty under my apartment. I’m not a rescuer. I just felt heart pain of the chase and war cry almost every morning. And now I’m looking her a home where she can feel relax and enjoy life. I watched other rescuers’ work through Instagram and it’s not easy. Sometimes […]
Why I don’t have/be like … ?
Sounds familiar? When I look at others, that question pops up. Also often followed by “how to be …?” or “how to get it?” But it takes away our happiness on appreciating what we have currently. And less grateful too. Don’t you think? Sometimes it’s not just about us, maybe also about our kiddos too. Like we have expectation on them, comparing them to others. While actually they are fine as they are. So, that’s this week quick thought. Let’s […]
To detach from our routine has its own good
There is old saying that practice makes perfect and build a routine to be better at something. But have you ever feel that you feel hopeless or trapped within the routine? What happened to recently is I trapped in routine of working. I was determined to get things done, and as a result, I was working morning full time and still have some night calls. And the amount of night calls are becoming more and more. I suddenly felt helpless […]
Beating your personal best
That’s it, yesterday event was my last sport goal for this year. To join a series of TriFactor event. Initially my motivation was to get the puzzle like medal, which you can connect with each other when you completed the all the event by them in a year. However, this year doesn’t seem to have it although this year is their 10th anniversary. Anyway.. again this will be focused on the swimming leg, my weakest among all three sports. I […]
The essence for our growth
I: Isn’t it fun getting better at the job? C: it is I: isn’t that the main strand of your career that you’re getting better at the job C: well, it could only get better, it couldn’t get worse Inspiration of the week is a chat by Cate (C) Blanchett and Sir Ian (I) McKellen in Actors on Actors show (link) They were discussing about things they are not so good at (geez, they are so humble, o’rite). Cate replied […]
