1111

yes this is an update of my life.

no, the title isn't commemorating the special time that some would associate with making a wish that you really want to be true. rather, it is to highlight that is the 1111th post on this blog. well, at least for those currently published ones.. did a little clean quite a few years back to have the current ones you see. no worries, doubt there will ever be another such clean up. so indeed the 1111th post.

the past week has been insane. moved to the new office, tackling new responsibilities, managing new expectations. these piled up and i found myself in quite a bit of hectic lifestyle, barely breathing.. but am glad when most of the stuff have been calming down by the end of yesterday. the weekends could not come at a better time. next week there will be quite a few changes in the offices as well. this will be interesting.

been preparing and organising my work-leisure trip to the UK as well. gosh, come tomorrow it will be the month where i will be flying over. time really flies. am very excited yet a little nervous.. mainly partly because how i think i am unprepared for the weather there. nonetheless, trying to fix this by the end of the next weekend. life's interesting like this, always on the edge.. the adrenaline, the shocks your brain sends. until next time then, cheers.

off the plane

yes this is an update of my life.

this update will focus more on the amazing holiday i had over the long weekend (with a few leave days applied) last week in Sydney, Australia. i shall ignore the hectic 2 days i had back at work.

so, the first new continent and also first never-been-to-before country of 2019 was explored. the main motivation/purpose for this trip when my friends and i had this trip idea in mind was to do skydive. this was nearly made impossible thanks to the insane and partially unpredictable weather. we expected the weather to be cold but never expect the strong winds that accompany the chill. winds were so strong that over the long weekend, there was a public notice advising everyone in the area to stay indoors. as tourists, of course we did not want to stay indoors.

managed to explore many tourist-sy places, trying tons of great food. did walk at least 10km each day but i guess those calories burnt were put back relatively easily thanks to our awesome meals. i will only share some photos taken during the trip in a couple of weeks' time. until then, i shall just share one picture from me jumping off the plane.


Sydney and Katoomba conquered. now back home, struggling to adjust back to the hot and humid weather. probably time to plan for my work-plus-leisure trip to the UK soon. until next time then, cheers.

adventure week

yes this is an update of my life.

pretty quick update though.. since i have a flight to catch soon. been so busy with work yesterday and then with travel arrangements and what not over the last few days. nonetheless, glad to be ready for the Sydney trip. been looking forward to this since December last year.

wonder if the things planned out are sufficient. i guess it will be a little fun to get lost a while during the trip anyway. so yeah.. new continent, new country, new experience. may this week of adventure be an awesome one. until next time then, cheers.
