Join me in my life of a regular Singaporean. Where there is nothing to do but shop and eat.
I am a 25 year old fresh IT grad searching for a career in a highly competitive market. At the moment I spend most of my life in front of my laptop. The internet is my currency to the world while I have none to spare ($$$). Read my thoughts and opinion. My triumphs and my breakdowns. I do not seek to inspire or beg to be praised. Simply my honest takes and I am all there is. |

.::another hot hot day::.
.::another hot hot day::.
had a long 12-hr sleep from yesterday nite after my mysterious caller...haha old friend Simon...its been so long sinz he last called...after talking for two hours we hung up coz i badly needed to crash! hmm...i wonder if he'll keep calling me...even after poly? i dunno...haf to discuss this wif Farzi...hehehe...
ok yesterday i spoiled my mood till i cancelled outing plans wif my friends. was supposed to meet up wif my family for lunch at town. so i hurried after lecture ended at 12pm. 171 didnt appear so i took 174. definitely a longer journey. and i arrived abt one hr later. lembab peh bas! then when i reached there they're already standing outside the restaurant and dad was already leaving for his meeting. they already finished lunch. I CANT BELIEVE THEY DIDNT WAIT FOR ME! i feel so unappreciated. urgh. so instead of eating wif my family, end up they watch me eat. i was sulking so bad i didnt see the other patrons in the restaurant. lucky i always go there to eat when i go out wif my friends. at least i was spared from feeling unappreciated AND out of place. so i finished my delicious hotplate chicken rice and cool iced lemon tea while trying hard to not show my great disappointment. tho they all know i was daymn unhappy. but sometimes its bad to follow my emotions. especially in front of my food. so instead of going to meet my friends after my family lunch, i went home straight after that. i oredi smsed Dzul and Jihad. i even declined to go shopping wif my sisters. my mood was badly sored. going home was the best thing to do then. i jz went to the computer to jz be by myself and at the same time try to cool down.
well i was ok by evening. tnx to the fact that two hilarious friends were online all afternoon to cheer me up. well the saying 'laughter is the best medicine' stays true to its fact. i was completely cured by it.
last nite after dinner, when i was lepaking on the carpet watching tv, dad asked me when i finish school. i said..
me: end of march.
dad: so u have nothing on during april?
me: shd be la.
dad: u wana go umrah accompany nyai anot? i sponsor everything.
me: well sure. shdnt be a problem. im free by then...
dad: u sure anot? u say ok ok later u cannot.
me: sure la. i dont have anything on april.
dad: ok this saturday we go down to the office and register.
yea i sounded confident and convincing. what not! he asked me that question in front of my nyai! (grandma) but apart from that i do feel i can afford to go. but aint it kinda sudden? me? perform the umrah? i cant believe it myself. but dont i feel lucky. today im still synchronizing this event that happened so suddenly to me. mom was feeling proud. jz one mth plus ago dad and mom jz performed the haj. and now its my turn to go. at first i didnt wana disappoint my mom, dad and nyai. but when i sat down quietly thinking, i have to accept that it was my call.
i just hope my life gets better and less clueless after this...
