Finding back my loves

Discovered the tumblr of this girl called nana at http://ohmytokyo.net/ (must see! she blogs in English & pictures) and the photos she takes from her time in Tokyo are simply gorgeous. It kind of feels like every picture paints a story and is so full of colour and life. Makes me wonder how life can look so beautiful from the viewpoint of others..

so long, farewell;

Friday was the last day of work for my colleague & department-mate Elincia (unique name, right?). Had only known and worked with her for merely two months but I'm rather sad that she's leaving cause she's considered of the the first people I really managed to get friendly with in the office, and I loved going for lunch with her. Will always rmb the trips to LJS & Sakae trips! Best wishes to you.. hope to meet up again soon. :}

the perfect hunt

Have been looking for this pair of shoes or similar for more than a year on gmarket, and I FINALLY managed to find them again today! And they were cost about SGD8.75 before shipping. But.. (yes, there's always the big but) they're not in my size. :( Meh, why so unlucky. If anyone knows where I can find such shoes please tell me k!

how's life?

Since I'm staying up a little later than usual doing my emails, I figured it wouldn't hurt to hop over to my blog and post something here too.

With most of my friends on my social media networks, there's no lack of updates about the start of their lives continuing their studies in university. Honestly, having already starting on a full-time job now simply makes me feel like I've come to a bit of a stand-still in life. I feel like I need to be in school now.. and it's still something I can't wrap my mind around. Maybe it's just something I'm already so used to- long school holidays with job stints but always returning back to school after that. Anyway, don't mind me. I'm just sharing this odd niggling feeling that has been at the back of my mind lately.

On a completely different note: I reallyyy want to shop. Like the times in Bangkok, shop till I drop. So looking forward to making the travel plans concrete!

These dark skies characterize what I call an impending storm.

perspectives;

Sometimes, things are so much more colourful than we make it seem. I feel like I've been painting my life in monotones and it's become such a bore. There's got to be more to life than just chasing after ideals and making others happy.

Bedtime story;

Hello, hello. I'm just here to write a quick post before I drift off to sleep. (:

You know how we all have this perception of who we ourselves are, as well as the ideal 'type' of person we'd like others to view us as? For me, I'd wish for people to view me as a person who is quirky and somewhat whimsical but with a creative mind. I know how this definitely doesn't sound like who I actually am now but it does sound nice, doesn't it? To live vicariously through others is something that I do at times as well. This is especially so when watching television programmer or reading up on other's lives online (sorry, makes me sound like a stalker?).. I can never fully express my love for the adayinmylife community on livejournal. It really does allow you to view the life of a person as they had lived it. And even if it's just for a single day, it's already fascinating and pretty much amazing.

Thanks for bearing with me through this post- simply felt like penning my thoughts down & having the free reign to write whatever rubbish I wanted. Mhmmm, feels really good.

On a completely random note, i have been thinking about this & if I were to start up my own business it'll prolly be a gourmet popcorn store. ♥
