Trying to login once in awhile just so that I lose this space due to inactivity!
It is back to the peak season, and it's just sad that I never officially got a proper break this year. Haha I kept 'ranting' to people about the extra CCAs that I took on, like preparing materials for an external training for the partners, TPU and social event for the team.. but to think about it, all these could have been avoided if I was firm on rejecting it at the start. It was until at some point in time where everyone realised that I was really struggling and not delivering, not to mention the backlog I had.....
But anyway, it is over! Just that I am on a tax course in Sept (which is examinable in Oct) so essentially I am still as busy as ever. Please hope that I can survive this while I figure a way out myself!!!
That said, I am trying very hard to de-work over the weekends. There were nights for family mahjong, Sundays with Tessa... Sometimes it works because by Sunday evening I just get too tired to work. I just hope I don't stress myself out too much!
Had some good time hanging out with people since being fully vaccinated! Met one of my counselees and JX (her buddy) over KBBQ and ice-cream on one Sunday; and met more people last weekend that people started to guess if I was leaving oops!!
Gna post some pics here for keepsake; I don't think these publicly available (or at least I hope so with my privacy settings) 😄
Catchup with An & Mich (4 Sep)
Met An and Mich and we found a baby friendly place to dine at - NOM. Food was ok, but I guess someone was super happy to see N! Was a great catch up, can't wait for my batch to meet and see J as well!!
Not the glamest photos around haha. & finally visit my grandma with dad and bro, since I was home in time before heading out for hotpot with family!! Wanted to bring my maternal grandpa but we had some issues finding his vaccination cert. :(
Dinner with the A2s going S1s (5 Sep)
Met up for Clar's farewell on Sunday with her batch (JX, L and E)! Chir chir x bingsooo cause I don't think I want to eat KBBQ, and maybe not drink the day before work.
A pity we didn't get a group photo but hopefully we will all meet again! Thanks for the jiooooo :)
Cycling from Marina Bay to Changi Airport
Finally went cycling aft we tried to walk from ECP to Marina Bay previously!!
Gotta say it felt very weird cause it has been a long time... and the height of the handle cannot be adjusted. Usually for spin, the seat has to be high since my legs do not touch the floor, but for actually cycling I am actually super scared that I will fall so the seat height has to be low for me to feel safe. & was being a cycling hazard at the start cause I couldn't get used to it and I wasn't sure how to change the gears etc.
But thankfully nothing serious happened except for times when I had to force brake cause I felt insecure of my skills. But yay thanks to the ones who tried to keep a lookout for us by slowly down or cycling at the back; I don't think I could have done the same cause I was too busy trying not to get into any accidents 😬
And thankful for the good weather (though not so happy about bring sunburnt); was glad to be able to watch the waves! Me would love to just sit by the beach and just chill if i have time~~~
Also felt nostalgic, and realised that it was also 7 years ago when le exhousemates went cycling together in Cijin:
Haha ded I definitely looked much fitter then; not sure how I survived cycling almost everyday for more than 3 months there!!
Anyw we went Jewel for lunch and desserts (ok maybe only I had the icecream from BOP cause I never tried that before). Was a good day that I slept through most of my Sat :) Let's cycle again soon, before things get too busy!
And yes I contemplated cutting my hair short, but Michie's wedding is coming and I was hoping to keep the curls till then. But my hair has been falling though so I think I don't have a choice.. heh but still excited for Oct, though I am not sure how I will survive this month :')
