| Today, I feel angry, disappointed and terribly dissatisfied.
My life needs some shaking up.
| | |
| Things I never knew / paid attention to:
(1) Toilet bowls need to be scrubbed regularly. The brush has to be washed with clean water thereafter.
(2) Mold grows in damp places, sinks and bathrooms included!
(3) The choice of neighbourhood in which one stays is important. Even though Singapore is generally safe, some neighbourhoods can be really dodgy. Think: Drunkards, drug peddlers, homeless people etc.

| My pet peeve : People who walk and smoke.
Come on, if you want to smoke - Sit and smoke / Stand and smoke whatever. Just do not walk and smoke. It makes me really angry when I'm (very unfortunately) trailing behind them and all I get is second-hand smoke. Not very nice at all. At the very least, people should be considerate.

I caught my reflection in the mirror at work today when horror horror - I've got tan lines! Sure, they aren't obvious but I'm just surprised (though not in a good way). We went biking at Pulau Ubin over the weekend, it was wet and muddy, the air was generally cool and breezy. I just can't bear to imagine how bad my tan lines will be if we were to cycle under (normal) sunny conditions.
Nonetheless.. I'd like to do it more often. Just need a cool bike / helmet / gloves. :D

| I know now today, exactly what sorta business I'll venture into when I'm older and wiser. I mean hey, I've got to admit it - I can't quit my day job just yet because there's so much more to 'grow into'. And I'd like to do what I love doing leisurely (now) in time to come. When the money looks good in my bank balance, and work is stagnating or perhaps due to the changes in demands of life to come.. I'll do it. And I must be able to do it with a 'I've got nothing to lose' mentality, and not, 'This is all I have' worry at the back of my head.
Cool beans!
Anyhow, we spent today doing being busy with me running a personal errand for my boss. Groans. I hate that it's eaten up half of my weekend and I know that by tomorrow this time, I'll be wishing so much the weekend didn't pass this fast. :(
And so I've been semi-'needing' another holiday, when it hit me - We took 3 frigging holidays this year! How extravagant! There was Paris, Phuket and Tokyo! (And Bangkok with Tannie!) Why I always feel like I need a holiday is beyond me.. But I guess I have more reason to need a holiday now that I've quit my airline job. I'm just thinking with my current (pathetic) pay, I can safely say.. We won't be taking such great holidays ever-so-often anymore. Woe is me.

| Out of the blue, on yet another day at work, it hit me : I like being in love, thank you very much.
Loves give you reason to do the many things that you do, to live your life. It gives you something to look forward to. It's comforting, it makes you feel safe, and I guess it's just really nice to know that someone really cares about you in a way that's unique and different.
I love my guy because he's supportive of the decisions I make. He stands by me unfailingly. He takes extremely good care of me, and never allows me to get away with the negativity in my head. He rationalizes the situation(s) very patiently and goes to great length to explain his point of view. Sometimes, I'm just tired from being negative and would like better to shrug it off and go away feeling like crap (well not really but you get my drift). But he never ever lets me do that.
I've never been in love like this before. I've never felt like my partner can and has the ability to take care of the unpredictable / unforeseen circumstances, or basically I now trust that he will hold up the skies, come what may. Because he can, and he wants to. If there's something that I don't know of, or need a lobang to buy this and that, he either offers me the information I need or makes a call to his friends to find out. There's always a friend he can call for different things / expertise. I like knowing that my man is resourceful like that. He always has good advice to dish out, and doesn't just tell me to 'sleep on it'. He doesn't get mad at me often, unless he feels like I'm not standing up for myself.
There are so many things and more that I love about this man. So for here and now, I'm happy and feel like I'm in a safe place on this planet Gaia.
