Senile. Frustrated.

Friends. Uncertainty.

Career. Totes.

It happened again!

Skipped another month.. I don’t remember when blogging became this hard to do!

A GREAT September, couldn’t ask for anything else.. Draws my close to this amazing extended holiday, as a lady of leisure… It has been muchly needed!

Now hello October! What comes in store for you? Pretty epic times… R gets married in a week!!! This is going to be a great close to a grand getaway.

BRAP!
Oh and I turned 28. Good times…

Holy smokes! August?!

Oh why hello August! Crap, totes forget to update in July. Things were a whirlwind of activities! Well when I say activities mostly helping move people into their new cribs, watching their puppy while they go away on holiday (in their £2 million something residence – they have their own gym! Sauna! Hot tub!)

Make this up – I do not! Not much of a liar to be honest :) though ex boyfriend might think otherwise but what do you do when they have that lasting impression? No chance of correcting or trying to prove yourself right when you’ve never lied to begin with!

So on a happier note, finished my 10km run FASTER than I hoped for! Made me incredibly happy then after that run I was totally being slack and lazy, til yesterday managed to squeeze in a gym session with a sauna that followed.

It’s amazeballs.

Still job hunting.. Still no sound. But one should never give up right! I still have 3 months left! Shizzles! 3 months flown by just like that.. It’s just going to be that much harder to leave me thinks.

Here’s to August! May it bring interesting people into my life that creates lots of butterflies in my tummy.

Greetings world wide web!

It’s been a month since leaving home and what a month it has been! I’ve been very good with expenses, at the price of doing less things as I’d like. But nonetheless, job hunting is still ongoing I did however go to Prague for a few days and I was blown away by it’s beauty (and incredibly cheap beer).

We’re talking about beers that are Kuala Lurah cheap but tastes a whole lot better! My travel buddy advised me that if I were to travel to any European destinations.. Go to places that don’t use the euros!

As you’d totally end up saving money :) I managed to only spend a small amount. I think I’ve been injected with the dire need to travel even more!

Now… A matter to find someone to go with. Or perhaps, I should consider going myself?

But it’s always more the fun with an extra person to go with no?

I’ve been eyeing up some incredible festivals.. Just the ones where you go for a day! Not the ones you camp.. If it was to be camping, glastonbury would be the choice.

To think, I could’ve done my Glastonbury experience last year! But alas, no point crying over spilt milk.

I wonder if you still visit this site.. Yes, you. If you are, I’m always wanting to contact you.. But I keep thinking I shouldn’t. Sigh.. Hey. hi! x

Adventure Awaits!

So I failed at trying to update at least once a month.. Mostly because the those 2 months was gearing up to my getaway. Approximately 7,000 miles away from home.. I’m back! A year later that I had planned for but at least, I’m here. Not for a crappy 2 week holiday but a 6 month break from home.

Been planning for this day since I graduated!

On a different timezone! GMT to be precise.

The weather has been awesome! Crappy occurrence of events as my bag got left behind.. But I got it back a day later. Been to several places already since getting here…

  • London
  • Northampton
  • Oxfordshire
  • Nuneaton
  • Birmingham

What’s in store for me next? Who knows! I am however, keen to see the guys again.. Not entirely sure how awkward things might be – as someone once told me – it won’t be awkward as long as I don’t make it out that way.

Epic things in small doses

It doesn’t matter how fast you do things, it mostly a matter of how you do it. Just last week, I had made history in terms of running! Taking back any lame comments or jokes I’ve made about it (eg. Whatcha running from? Or just totally not understanding the idea of it)

After a month of an almost daily routine, I managed to push the limits and run 5km straight without the usual stop to walk for a bit! That was an incredibly feel good moment…

To top it off, I managed to achieve approximately 2km in swimming lengths within 45 minutes.

Keeping my mind pumped with adrenaline rather than thinking of silly unimportant things!

So as of today, it’s not very far until I fly back home. Exciting days x

On the last moment

I remember spending the last leap year in Liverpool celebrating a friend’s birthday as she told me she’ll always go all out for her birthday cos it only really happens 4 times a year!

And during that time, a close friend of mine proposed to her boyfriend. As they say anything can happen on a leap year so she got on one knee and proposed, he said yes!

Love how in this lifetime, the roles are reversed and when you think everything is at its greatest lows of lows, something comes along to help you forget those harsh times.

I managed to squeeze in a post before February comes to a close.. Well on GMT 8+.

In two days time, I was meant to see Foo Fighters live in Singapore but Dave Grohl was given orders by several doctors to rest up. Oh man! That means I have to wait! Gah. Sucks ass.

But on a happier note, in another 3 months – a giant adventure awaits me.

This is going to be the sex. Probably better than sex.

Mmmmm… Sex.

8 years old!

This domain turns 8 years old today! Hot damn! Just 8 years ago, being in Liverpool and making the epic decision on a domain name for my blog. Which I’ve kept even though I underutilize it!

It’s okay, I just can’t bare to let it go! Just too many memories and something I really hold dear to my heart when I re-read my old posts. The vagueness, the details – hee.

2012 has been quite the year for me, and as the Chinese lunar new year is closeby, I think and hope alot more positive changes are ahead of me. All negative aspects I encounter, I will always try to find a positive spin on it. For the better of me and my sanity.

Happy Birthday domain! :) 2012! May it be interesting x

I had a quick run through of the last 5 NYE I’ve had and how each time was spent with different people. The choices we make, decisions we pick out to do.. Would prompt the question.. “what if it was done differently?”

The beautiful thing is that we’d never know!

Instead each memory made is to be cherished, learnt and loved.

This little domain of mine, is almost 8 years old! Archives are hidden somewhere within MySQL server… What an insane 8 years it has been, buying that domain when I got to the UK for university.

But that post will have to wait for theactual anniversary.

To whoever is reading this – probably me in a year or two. Happy 2012! Here’s to bigger, brighter things x
