What I've been up to
Just realized that I haven't taken any meal at home since I came back a few days ago! Except for breakfasts that is. My Grandma is grumbling away about it. Hmmm... But it's been great catching up with frens before starting work :)
1st of all, my matchmaking plan for someone ( u know who u r hehe) failed, but guess at the end of the day we shd approach this sorta thing with the idea of helping others make frens and not expect too much. In the 1st place, think the chances of matchmaking working out requires that u know both parties and their expectations well. Chemistry between 2 ppl can be really subjective and not something outsiders can really understand at times. But nvm! On to my next "client"! Hiaks.
Woke up rather moody this morning for no rhyme or reason...has been quite chirpy for the past week. Then became even more moody after paying the bill for my thyroid blood test!!! I know one shd not skimp on health but these private clinics can be really exorbitant at times! My poor parents, supporting a kid like me. At least my starting work is putting one burden off them...can now contribute towards supporting my family. I could barely smile even though the clinic assistant was so sweet and chirpy, even telling me to rem to bring umbrella cos it looked like rain today. Hai... must get well soon. Health is precious.
As I whiled away some time by walking abt, I bumped into none other than Lorraine herself!! Woah gal we r really destined as frens yeah buahahahah :) Hope ur feet is fine now. I shd neva have encouraged u to get that pair of stilettoes. Sorry, sorry!
Then went over to meet Johan and Pearl for lunch. Had been terribly shocked when he messaged me upon my return that he had quit his contract teaching becos the last time I met him he was actually so happy and contented abt it. He is leaving S'pore on Mon. Felt rather sad when we thought abt how all our paths seem to be diverging now. Had a great time over lunch and chatting abt working life and catching up in general, though I have yet to do so. I always feel apprehensive before embarking onto a new phase in life and this time round it's no different, esp after hearing certain not so positive things abt the working place I am going to. But perhaps the lesser expectations I have the better. Plus I will enter with a positive attitude and try to face any challenges bravely. One thing I come to understand abt myself is that I never let pessimism get in the way of doing a good job of whatever I do. Meanwhile, I wish Johan all the best in his future undertakings. We will miss him so!
Tomorrow (actually today liao hahaha) will be spent on just relaxing...a welcome treat before working. ZZZZ...
