I had enough of feeling down and helpless. I actually felt that I wasn’t strong enough.
When I managed to take a step back and look at my problem, it’s really such a small issue compared to other bigger problems in life. Then again it’s really easy to say, but when you’re in that downward spiral and things just keep getting worse, tough times are difficult to handle. It took me a whole weekend of doing nothing to defeat the dementors.
Talking to friends always help. I have been really whiny these days lamenting about my trouble all day long. Thank you peeps for listening patiently to me, giving me hope, although I wish one of you could have slapped me in the face and asked me to wake up my idea. I am blessed to be surrounded by so many angels in my life. 
The next time I start my sentence with “I”… I should try to shut up.
Sometimes I feel like making the wrong decision and just be crazy and decide without considering carefully the consequences.
It’s like knowing there are two holes and still choosing to walk into either one.
There’s no real right or wrong, anyway. Only perceptions.
Everything will work out in the end. and as they always say, YOLO.
I’ve only watched two “Draw My Life” videos from my two favourite YouTubers so far, and both of them have shared their amazing stories. I shed a tear or two :’|
“A friend who knows your heart (intentions) will not judge you by your actions.”
Interesting takeaways:
Women do not negotiate for themselves in the workforce. 57% of men negotiate for salary whereas only 7% of women do.
Women underestimate themselves and tend to attribute success to other external factors. – someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard. Men say “I’m awesome”.
We have a choice to succeed and be liked for our accomplishments.
No one gets the promotion if they don’t feel they deserve or know or believe in themselves. Own your own success.
Keep your foot on the gas pedal.
Today is a great day for 4 reasons:
Yesterday, my friend scolded me because of the way I typed. Had I said it out loud in real life, it probably would’ve sounded less offensive. but because of the way I typed it, I sounded rude due to the lack of tone. Read More →
Love it.
Recently my friend introduced me OverDrive, an app to borrow library books.
I can’t believe nobody told me about it until only recently. As a frequent library user (I’m cheap like that) I always go home with a pile of books that end up on my desk. Sometimes they are bulky so I don’t get to bring them out, and end up untouched since I only usually read books during my commute and pre-bedtime.
OverDrive has changed my life. It’s totally a game-changer in my opinion.
No more heavy books in my bag, lesser backaches from now on 
What I really LOVE about it? You can download the book and assess it offline. Perfect.
You can use bookmarks. It even shows which page you stopped at.
There are tons to books to select from, the Search is so easy you can almost find whatever titles you want and actually get RELEVANT results. If the item you want is not available yet, add them to your reservation list so you can be notified when it’s avail! Yipee!
Try it – download OverDrive here. NLB has a tutorial on how to use the OverDrive app.
