Familiarity

I think after doing so many exam practice questions, I found that the key to success is repetition. Keep doing past years and single best questions; eventually, there is a pattern to it. The only frustrating part is that as an adult I could not concentrate for long. My mind is everywhere, particularly I think I am suffering from some game addiction. Gunbound mobile had been a huge portion of my life since I passed my primary exams and I sort of have to play it daily to feel complete. I do mute group chats related to the game but curiosity got the better of me and I still scroll those chats which is time-consuming.

I know I have a very strong willpower and once I set my mind to something, nothing can convince me to change my mind. The only thing that has been unsuccessful for the past few months was my weight management, I gained 4kgs! I think 4kgs is sufficient to trigger me to regular exercise and after just 1 week of consistent exercise, I dropped 1kg which is probably due to water weight and thus should not be counted. My game friend is also on a weight lost journey and the videos he shared with me are so helpful. I am extremely sore from the exercise with squats and going up and down the stairs is so painful now. However this sort of pain is a nice form of pain, I don't mind it at all. 

Just another 8 weeks (my name)! I can do it, hang in there! I sacrificed precious family time to stay put at Kelantan just to study so I should study and not be spending time scrolling on messages or playing too many games. Do I need to take the drastic measure of deleting my game app? Nah, that would cost me 120gems from advertisements if I watch them daily for 2 months, not to mention end-of-season rewards. I really wonder how people with children or those female colleagues who are pregnant manage their time and well-being on top of studying. 

I wish right now I have a helper to do my laundry, cook, and help me watch advertisements on Gunbound daily. Oh also to do all those silly adult things like paying the bills on time (I missed my house payment on two occasions due to being busy). Indeed a lot of extra stuff in adult life is just there to distract and does not bring enjoyment or fulfilment. Now I understand why the rich always have personal assistance - to take over all this meaningless time-consuming stuffs so that they can focus on actual living.  

Okay, back to the grindstone.

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 ...

Pieces of My Shatterd Heart

I miss you, when you laugh, the twinkle in your eye, the shape of your silhouette against the moonlight, the way you concentrate when you drive, and tease me intentionally to make me smile I really miss you~~~~~ I like the time when we went out and it was raining you treated me like an ice cream afraid of me melting shunning me away from the water droplets falling and when I look up to see you I caught you smiling... Drowning in a pool of misery wondering how to change history to diminish my growing worry to seal you in my deepest memory Not having you means not having anything cause you are the one whom i can share everything its you i seek when the rays of dawn comes shinning don't you know that my heart is now shattering? When night comes the missing is unbearable cause its was always the time you are more available yet now even when the curtains of dusk falls I'm l...
