Read All About It

I dreamed of writing my own book one day. For a few good years, the idea has been bouncing about like a ball; from writing a reference book to fictions. Oh well, l guess I can say that God has his plans as to why it took me an ass-gnawing time to finally come up with this brilliant idea. I was toying with the idea of encapsulating funny (and not to mention embarrassing too!) moments that me and my family members have experienced over the years. So I whatsapp-ed my sibs and called my Queen to share my magnificent idea with them. They seem pretty okay with it. I guess I know have a lot to let out and I hope my piece of work can capture those memorable moments and that one day it will be a piece of work passed down to generations without risking some info being lost.

Bitch It All Out

While I was learning to build a bigger ship, others have set theirs out and have yielded something more than my far bigger ship. What am I aiming for in life? It's definitely not the situation that I've put myself into. If I had chosen another ship navigator, we would have gone somewhere else and probably would have caught some fishes in between. Should I continue navigating this ship that seems to sail nowhere? Or should I find another ship navigator and set a new destination? Sailing aimlessly for an unknown number of years is not how life should be spent.

Make Time for This Loveable Self

I always chide myself for not making enough time for myself and not pampering myself enough after having to fight and give more to others. To what extent can a person's self-worth be put aside just to prioritise others for the sake of so many reasons? I have to learn to stop in between time and make quality time for myself. Take my everyday routine for instance. Every night, I have my 'me time' when I can read and listen to songs, accompanied by a cup of hot green tea. It is kind of like a training I put myself through almost every night. I know that by reading, it is so much more entertaining and enriching than watching tv. Besides, I don't have a tv (not mine), so yeah! And with the little things that I have, I make the most out of it. Every now and then, I see people going on a budgeted vacay and some can afford more luxurious ones. I think I'll just stick to within the country as for now due to my constantly low savings. At times, I have to use a magnifying glass to look for 10 cents. Despite the things that I have lesser than other people, I cannot afford to make my life miserable because we cannot compare our lives to others all the time. So, to save for my next vacay, I'll have to sacrifice something in order to save more money. I've given myself a challenge for this week where I'll go vegetarian. Reason being, I ate too much meat last weak which resulted in tummy pain and stuff. Practise moderation, CHL! I am! It's just that with him, he's like a rubbish bin. He has the obligation to lick the plates clean so it's worth his money, I guess. So, in a way, that makes me the small rubbish bin as well. Yeah, so I haven't been eating meat except yesterday when the boy must have missed out on my 'Don't put meat in my watan hor'. So I had to swallow those few pieces of meat. For me, eating more vegetables simply means that I'm fuelling my body with plant-based stuff. I want a healthy and not-so-out-of-shape body. That's all. It has, to a certain degree, something to do with digesting food that comes from another living things. Animals! I'm not so noble in that sense. I still eat meat and stuff but not much, really. I think of myself more than I do for the animals actually hahaha. As no one will be loving this body and self more than I do, I'm in full responsibility of making it healthy and in good shape (I hope!). Start with the little things!

My Queen

Yesterday was Mothers' Day and as usual I wished I was with my Queen celebrating life and to pamper her as much as I possibly can. My Queen is still at our hometown with my Jiapo. I guess I'll encourage her to go back like at least twice a year. Spending time with our own parents is nothing like winning a Jackpot. I was telling my friends about spending Mothers' Day with my Queen from next year onwards. I mean, what's the point of staying in this already miserable place and being coerced to attend fake and pretentious so-called family functions? I see loopholes and resentment every time those freaks get together. Every thing is just so 'Petaling Street'. Next year, I have to go back. Daughters who are married are not like water that's thrown out and not being able to get it back. They are simply the bigger person who are willing to be part of both sides of the families and not to forsake any one of them. That's not my case, though. Never mind. I'll be buying my Queen some supplements. I want both my Queen and King to be healthy! =) Amitofo, Buddha blesses them.
