It's The End Of Raya

Today's 27 September & it's the last day of Eid... 29 Syawal. Fasting lasted for 29 days & so do Eid. Like the saying goes; every beginning will come to an end. It's always hard to say goodbye but life must go on.

With Syawal ending, it means that September will come to an end in a few days time. Times flies real quick. Sometimes I feels that I couldn't keep up with life. The more I try to chase time, the more further time will run... I'm mentally tired...

Back to the topic. What I did last weekend?

It's the final week of Syawal... So I was invited to an open house on Saturday conducted by my relative(aunt side). Last year, I did not make it to their open house due to "time clash".. So this year I managed to turn up. Throughout the day, I stood at the kitchen. In between when I felt tired, I sat for a while & observe whoever guests that came by. I felt lethargic, tired despite me not helping out much. Physically, I'm exhausted! I'm quite surprised that I still received an "hangbao" this year despite my current age right now. It's embarrassing to accept but I just accept. Like the malay saying, (rezeki jangan ditolak)...

It's quite an exhausting weekend for me. I reached home past midnight upon returning from the open house. This is what I call "Girl Power!" Terror right? Ahaha...  Bcos we are the "Charlie's Angel" . We can be independent even without a man beside us...

The next day which is Sunday, I have my agenda for the day. I finally meet up with my dear old friend of a decade(This is the 10th year in our friendship) after postponing our meet up for nearly a year. It's over 10 months since our last meet up. Honestly it's such an enjoying moment whenever I spent time hanging out with her. Every seconds past felt so quick. Without us realising, we have to end the meeting for the day. Due to time constraint, we have to called it a day. The saddest part is when I have to say goodbye & leave the place. It felt as if we just met. I don't want time to end that soon. I always felt that I still have a lot of thing to discuss & talk it out with her.

 Meileng knows how to get me talking since I'm the quiet type you see. With others, I can't be like what I am when I'm with Meileng. My true self, character comes out when I'm with her. I don't need to pretend to be like what I'm not used to be. With her, I can simply say out whatever's bothering me spontaneously. I don't have to plan out what I have to say. It just happens spontaneously. But my biggest fear is that along the way, I might say something that might get her offended. Due to my spontaneous speech, I'm very worried. But I hope I won't say something that might offend her.

We explore Orchard Road despite not being familiar with that area. Shall call it "Orchard Exploration" but didn't manage to explore much due to l ack of stamina & time constraint. We are scheduled to meet up during lunch time. When reaching Orchard, it's almost 2pm. Walk around to explore. We planned to visit H&M but ended up going somewhere else. Went to Neon Orchard, New Look(Did i spelt it correctly?) & Plaza Singapura & much ore which I can't recalled. She showed me the way to Daiso. It's quite embarrasing that I just came to know there's such shop available. Everything sells for $2.00... Ooooooohhh.... I'm always at home & didn't get the opportunity to explore the places around. But I'll seized every opportunity that's given to me...

Time check it's already 11:03pm. My eyes are getting heavier. I'll update more when I had the time to do so. I'm physically & mentally tired right now. I'd better get my sleep right away & shall not forced myself to stay awake when my eyes are telling me to rest.

Till the next time. Cherio peeps!

Hari Raya Coming To An End

Today is the 26 September, which means it marks the 28 days of Syawal. That means one more day to go before Syawal makes it exit. Goodbye Syawal, Goodbye Raya. It seems so fast that this special month is leaving us. I'm goina miss it for sure. Times flies real quick.

I'm writing in the comfort of my living room. It's been a while since I last blog. I admit that I don't have the privilege to blog daily. I won't write if I'm lacking of idea. Plus I'm not a daily blogger although I wish I could be one. Nevertheless, I'll try to blog as frequent as I could. I'll try to squeeze in some time to blog. I can only do so during my free time.

I'm not goina write much for today as it's already late. My eyes are getting heavier as I try to type out every alphabet & words. I'm better get my beauty sleep soon or I'll be having panda eyes & even eye bags that might scare aware others who bump into me. Ahaha....

Till the next time peeps! I'll try to blog regarding my agenda for the weekend(24-25 Sep), as soon as I get the chance to do so. Until then, take care & cherio readers!

Remember a smile is all it takes to cheer up the day. So remember, keep smiling :-)

Half September Gone

Today marks the 20th day of Raya, Eid-ul-fitri... 9 more days left for raya before it make it exit.. Time passes real quick... I can never chase the time but I can only try my best to walk with it. Go with the flow with life. Do I make sense here? What crap am I talking about down here? Sigh..

18 days already past in this month of September. What are the things that happened throughout this period of time? Happy, sad, dissappointment, frustration, any more? 

Those are the things that we're likely to encounter in our daily life. Life is like a spinning wheel. No doubt, we'll be encountering to any of those situations in life. 

What are the things that's happening throughout this month?

It's quite a hectic month for me. Busy running some errands.There's quite a few things to settle throughout the day. My biggest wish for September is to be granted a permanent placement in the job industry. It's hard for me to get employ by employees. Perhaps my resume wasn't good enough or maybe it doesn't stand up among the rest of applicants. One of the other reasons which I can think of is my lack of ability to speak well during the interview sessions. 

I still do feel awkward to start a conversation with people around. Being away from the working industry for quite a long time had prevent me to have a smooth conversation with others. I'm trying my best to be more presentable in public especially when it come to public speaking. But it's hard for me. I seriously thinks that I need a proper session to guide me in the way to speak in public, during interview session. Personal grooming class perhaps? 

Honestly thinking of all these is making me tired. Physically & mentally tired. Anyway in early September I gained weight. When I noticed that, I obviously freak out. Like usual. But halfway in September which is now, I lost back the weight that I just gained. Within 6 days after I had a drastic lost of appetite, I lost the extra pounds that I gained. Am I happy? Of course I am! Wee... But I know I lost weight the unhealthy way by skipping several meals for the day & by eating lesser than usual. 

Sometimes, I wonder what causes the drastic weight loss? Stress or feeling pressurised? I'm unsure which causes it? But one thing for sure, whenever I feels stress out, I'll quickly tell myself repeatedly that I must cheer up. Either by listening to soothing, calming music, killing time with games or watching movies online, etc... Thinking of happy thoughts will instantly put a smile on my face. I am a happy-go-lucky girl despite being quiet & shy. That shall be the way :)

I'm ending my final post for this week. Till the next time peeps! Cherio! Remember a smile is all it takes to cheer up the day! So keep smiling :)

P.S: I know I'm quite slow. Just discover this song from youtube. I could say I kinda love the melody the first time I heard it.It could be my latest favourite on my playlist.

Comparison In Reality

Hi everyone... I'm back after a week of absence. Sorry for the lack of updates. I try to blog as frequent as possible but due to time constraint, I have to slow down a bit.

Let me try to pick out a topic for discussion. Let me think.... Ermmm.. Alright this shall be my spontaneous discussion on the chosen topic. Totally unplanned! Let's talk about status this time. That kind of status or rather rank in the industry, be it working life, schooling or daily life. According to my own research, there's a few type or behaviour that people especially those in the higher rank behave.

It's common from what I observe, those with a higher rank like executive, managerial position will behave in a somehow "different" from us the non-executive level. Perhaps with their higher position, they normally think highly of themselves. In some cases, they don't go about mixing with those from the non-executive level. They don't even bother to care about their staff welfare matters, etc...

Managerial & executive level can get along pretty well maybe due to their level rank. Having a pleasant discussion together while those in the non-executive rank were left out from the group. This things is common everywhere. In some cases where a new staff just join the company, not confirm yet as a perm staff, they are the ones who will feels totally left out. Perhaps the nature of work, environment is different. In some places, the colleagues are totally friendly while some may not be the same. Perhaps it's the way how we view things.

Of course not everyone from the executive level behaves that way. It only applies to some. I think there is an invisible line that cut through between managerial, executive & non-executive level.

In reality, this is it. Like it or not, we have to face it willingly. Let's learn to accept things positively instead of viewing things the negative way. It's easier said that done but if we try our best, we definitely will be able to achieve it.

I'm running out of ideas to elaborate more on this topic. Perhaps some other time, I may or may not continue writing with this topic. Only time can answer.

I shall end my post for this topic. Till the next time. Cherio readers! Have a great day everyone :)

When September Came

This shall be my first update for this month. Hello September.

Last weekend I went for my first Raya visiting. But it's kinda embarrassing when I still receive "green packets" a.k.a. hangbao or whatever it's called. For the benefit of those who have not heard of this word I'll include images of it below. It simply means an envelope, a small one, containing money. I'm sure everyone understand what I'm saying. What am I talking about. Like duh!





I'm lucky to get this packets from every house that I visited. Like oopsss... I shouldn't be getting them at this age. Being in the adult stage makes me feels embarrass & somewhat awkward to receive it ... Maybe they still think I'm a student. But perhaps they knew I'm still unemployed.. Alrite... Will take that as the reason. Ahaha...

 Not goina update much for today. Till the next time peeps. Cherio :)

 P.S.: I'm quite sad that my breakout is yet to recover. Hoping that it shall recover totally soon. Yesterday, one acne just pop up & I freaked out again! Scary feelings thinking of the scars...
