I have been horribly sick all of a sudden and a few good friends have been calling and txting and checking up which is a lovely feeling. It’s the effort and caring that really count. I had to attend a family friend’s dinner party two nights ago. The party started with everyone talking about my dad for over an hour. ...
I haven’t been fond of birthdays for a while now. But this year was different. Many people made an effort to do something different, to show that they cared and this was very touching. I have had a few cakes and candles to blow. I made sure I had the same wish in mind at all times. I got gifts ...
There is a new cleaning lady in our section of the office. A small-made lady, probably close to 40 or more, crooked teeth jutting out, dark, a fringe that looks like it’s been blown upwards and with a lovely smile and pleasing personality. She’s very down to earth and minds her own business and does her job. Last week, when ...
It’s always the people that we care about that disappoint us the most. Maybe whatever that doesn’t happen disappoints us coz we expect the most from them. So it is ourselves that we have to blame…for being attached… for wanting… for expecting… I can’t think of another way to look at it. Simple things become big things… Irrelevant things become ...
It’s one of those rare days where everything seemed good. One of those days, you wish would never end. One of those days, you want to have everyday. One of those days, you would do anything to have and make it work… for always. I sincerely hope…

If I’m upset or stressed about something, there are two things I do to distract myself.. I count things that are similar like lights or chairs or something.. Or I spell words continuously in my mind.. Nothing is helping right now… Sigh..
When we were too young, we wanted to be older. Now that we’re older, we want to be young again. At least I do. Gone are the days where we danced away at parties and weddings to Baila music and were surrounded by people allowing me and crony to dance coz they were entertained and old drunk wobbly uncles used ...
I still get excited by McDonalds kids meal toys. I have a massive shoe collection, which I don’t seem to use. If I get upset about something, I simply cannot sleep that night. The first thing I have started to do after I get paid, is donate to people helping dogs that are in need of help and care. There’s a ...
Nothing ever came easy. Nothing. Sometimes I wonder if my hopes would ever come true… I call it hope coz I think about how much I want it every single day. I like what my parents had. The love that grew between them. Sometimes one would oblige and suffer to make something work for the other. They didn’t have much, ...
The week has been a rather horrible one. It’s been a mix of difficult colleagues creating chaos to irresponsible juniors running away from work and I have always been the one to pull through and suffer in the process . The worst part was being unbelievably sick in the process and not putting myself first . A few colleagues have ...
I never thought leaving my current workplace would be this painful. The sweet memories it has given me, amazing new friendships I’ve built, great client relationships I’ve formed, the good praises I’ve received from the bosses for the work done and so much more. I’ll definitely miss the people the most. There was an amazing workplace culture instilled in the ...
Trying to finish a pitch document and presentation…. Sipping Samahan… With a blocked nose, breathing difficulty, a bad cough and fever.. Covered with a shawl… Wondering if I can meet a doctor… Craving for some good food… wait, did I have lunch…:-O Hoping someone would magically drop off some hot chocolate…. And wondering, is this what we call life…? I ...
