Good News

Yesterday I received a good news in my email. I badly wanted to share the good news with those who are dear to me but somehow I couldn’t. I shared it with my family and they congratulated me. I was expecting a better response from my partner but I guess he is too busy and just gave a thumbs up reaction to my post in the family group. Each one of my family member congratulated me and dad even joke that whatever prize I’m getting I should share it with him. I think if I share it with my “twin”, he would have been more engaging and supportive. I have no doubts at all on how he would responded because I could predict his response since we are too similar. Anyway I really did not expect the good news and I read the email a few times as the only reason I had submitted an entry was to show support by participation and that was my only goal. 


I am exceptionally happy as I finally purchased the Valentine’s Day turtle skin on Gunbound mobile and also a Valentine’s Day pet which has the ability called “hug”. Basically “hug” is a skill whereby friendly tanks get their HP restored when they are within a distance of 200 (makes me wonder what is the unit of distance used in the game). I really enjoy the trace of pink hearts along my shooting trajectory and purposely played battle training just to see it a few times. It would be nicer if they could actually make my special weapon into heart shaped water droplets. I think it is lovely to have achieve a few things in 2024 and in the blink of an eye it is now February. 


February will be a very short month and I am quite excited yet a little nervous about the “good news” as I am required to do a presentation and that was never in my plans. I guess it’s for me to overcome stage fright. All my life I am often forced to overcome stage fright as I recalled participating in multiple story telling, debate and speech competitions. Sometimes I do wonder why am I always putting myself through those stressful situations. Anyway I know I cannot escape speaking to an audience because it is something required in my career and the only way to get better is to force myself to face my fear. Master did say fear is bad and therefore I shall meditate to overcome it and pray that I could remain composed and calm whenever I need to face a crowd of people. 


I still haven’t figured out what to get as a return gift for my thoughtful friend and driver who I often seek his service whenever I need to go to the airport or bus station. I was surprised that he prepared a red packet for me the other day thinking that I am away to celebrate Chinese New Year at home. He sees me like a daughter and despite knowing I’m married he still gave me a red packet. I am thinking of some edibles that are healthy and nourishing but with nice Chinese New Year packaging. I am really hoping to get the gift latest by next Wednesday before I head home on next Thursday. 


May February be filled with lots of blessing for everyone!

Singapore

Continuation from yesterday’s post.  I finally ate the ice cream which is sandwiched between two wafers that I saw before and it was yummy because there’s like a huge block of ice cream and the wafer was thin. I chose peppermint chocolate and raspberry swirl. It was really fun to eat that on the helical bridge that totally looks like a DNA strand. I really love this region and it was also the same place where the fun run was held. So I got to go across the helical bridge twice. I am also very happy to finally seen the Merlion and since it was early in the morning during the fun run, the place was rather quiet and there were not many crowds. I wanted to properly run the fun run but I end up walking most of the time just enjoying the scene and talking to people since it was supposed to be a networking event. Delegates from 142 countries were there but I only manage to make friends from Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Germany and New Zealand. It was quite hard to make ...

Out of the blue

 I remembered I used to cry a lot about Icy, and I was very confused with my own actions and emotions. During that period, I needed someone to talk to, and I did not want to talk to anyone who knew me in real life so I just spoke to someone random in-game. He joined the clan and I used to want people to be active and donate clan points and make a lot of reminders for members to play world boss. It was also during that time that I cleared out some members to make way for new ones. I may have recall bias as I had a lot of sadness in me back then and when I am sad I cannot recall things properly. I just remember the guy was from Brazil and when he heard of my story he was mad at me as he said I was unfaithful to my husband and he left the clan and deleted me as friend. I was rather shocked with his response and at that time I was also sad as I realize no one will ever be compassionate enough to understand my feelings.  Anyway that was more than 1 year plus ago. I think I stopped ...

忙或困是最好的解药

 我想人类是需要足够的睡眠， 过于操劳能让一个人所有的情绪给封闭起来，脑子里只想让自己“关机”。今天刚巧是个很忙的一天，忙得我真的没时间去思念任何人，也没时间胡思乱想。我记得我曾经说过为了避免自己难过，我若是隔天要离开情人/亲人，我刻意让自己睡眠不足。当我觉得我很困的时候，我就没机会伤心了，这个生活窍门我用了很多次也从未失败过。  我不能说我完全没有想他，因为今天工作所遇到的事我都很想和他分享。由于很忙这个想法只是瞬间经过我的大脑然后很快的又消失了。我可算是个认真的人，工作时我都不分心所以我真的想他了，要不然他是不会出现在我脑海里。其实我今天有和我老公说我想他了可是他没有回答我给他的简讯。1256，1637， 2327 这些是我发了简讯的时间可是一个答复都没有。想一想我真的是个孤单的人。虽然我很爱独处，但是我也喜欢有个和我三观一致的人和我分享生活。 我现在只希望今晚有机会睡觉因为昨晚我0200就醒来了。我没想他了，我只渴望睡觉。其实还有很多话想说但是我真的很困了。
