The one that got away.

Last working day of the year and here I am, sleeping on my annual leave. Life is good. :)

So much happened this year. It was turbulent for just about everyone to anguish over the loss of our grandparents. I still find the absence very, very bitter. It's unbearable and it is a sorrow that cuts to the core even until today. The other day when I was officially brought to a church service, tears immediately broke down. I felt Pastor when he speaks. I felt the pain weighing on my back. I felt that grief piercing through my heart. But it was all good then, and I especially love the Christmas production.

So a little more than a year ago, I began my journey in LB plainly because I was offered to do so. Never in my entire 21 years that I would imagine myself growing in an advertising agency. It has been a deeply fulfilling 12 months and a wonderful experience with the company. One year later, I'm thrilled with what I've come about and eager to do even more. In addition to being responsible for sports club, apparently my first VP position came as the result of people powered election. It seemed like a long, grinding path I couldn't see myself taking but with great players, I believe we're gonna rock on next year!

The longest period I have not touchdown in a healthy relationship now and I personally think that this year was a great year of being single despite all our chaotic drinking, trips, parties and after parties. While flings and hook ups have come and gone, it hasn't been too terribly awful except for that particular reason that brought my feelings, burning. A false jump indeed, but I think we are cool with what we are today and continue to be cool for the rest of the time.

With the old year gone, here's to a new beginning!

It will rain.

So, I'm back. For good.

Took some time off blogging due to the messed up, never ending timeline. It has been a long way of soul searching, but am glad to say that I am quite a happy person lately. And on this rainy afternoon, I grew up to this point of life where my career is playing a huge part in almost everything I do. Everything seems so fine except I failed to strike a balance between work and family. My parents never liked my job ever since the work hours became intolerance. But by far my biggest insight is plain and simple - I like what I do and I love who I work with. It's not that I didn't know that before, but I had more thoughtful time to break that down being with people who spread good cheer. And the best thought of all is that my 1 year working anniversary is only 3 days away!

While playing hard to get in a relationship, at times, can be really tiring. If played incorrectly, you might even lose that person in the game. I don't see how our relationship would grow at this moment, but it's definitely infusing a shot of mystery into the depths of a sultry romance. The game generally is deceptive, and often gets frustrating when the level of longing isn't there for me to endure. This has never been my usual approach, just so you know, oh boy, it's just another natural progression of life.




We all love Chung Wa Dae.

Been meaning to update this space since forever.

Life has taken it's toll this year. I really don't know how to begin to describe this sudden dive of heartbreak. It feels like a recurring nightmare from earlier this year, as if we are all fighting a losing battle. Not the greatest start of the year but little that we knew that the year was only going to get worse. Losing a pair of grandparents within the past 10 months felt as if everything had been ripped apart totally. In the long tenure of family relationship, for the first time, this status is at rock bottom. It's story like this that make you believe that anything can happen in life. The thought of it still makes me cry but gone are the days.

I've been thinking of many things, different things or maybe almost everything. We have all hoped, at least once in our lives, for things to be simple. But pathetically it just doesn't work that way. How much I think about love and the impulsive state of getting a downright partner is whipping through everyday.

Then again, it's the junction of hope that I'm at.



Some things, when lost, can never be retrieved.

Hear my thoughts in every note.

Life these days sickens me. Emotionally vulnerable but it's unavoidable considering everything that's going on. I think I'm losing sense of everything and I crave an escape from this mundane routine. Just when I thought I'd done the most I'd do, things just crumbled yet again. I'm exhausted. I'm tired of being not capable, not suitable, not achievable, not pleasing every other sides of the world. I'm in dire need of mending myself but sometimes I feel so broken I can't tell which piece belongs where anymore.

Straying away with some mobile uploads...

Strange addiction but I'm happy. :)


This will hurt more than anything has before...

Spoonful of sugar.

Now that the long slacking holidays are far behind, the return to office is going to be another dreaded anticipation for what seemed like a daunting journey. Post-holiday blues! Feeling all lethargic to get back to the swing of things tomorrow. But pretty par for the course that as we plunge headlong into September, the eventful year end is solely awaiting. *finger crossed*

It's nice to be back in the warmth of people that I adore and the temporary unemployed routine for a precious week - sleep, eat, play! Add a dash of joy, a pinch of friends, a spoon of family and a heap of love...

:) birthday countdown at OverTime.

Happy turning 22nd, Squirrel!

And the craziest Monopoly game ever!

Lately I have this severe eagerness of wanting to start a relationship with this person but I just want to know if I am clinging onto a false hope because apparently hanging onto something so indefinite weakens my faith.

Answer my heartache please. Sigh.
