dragon

yes this is an update of my life.

had a previously bad update couple days back as i was too caught up with other things on hand at that time to do a proper update. nonetheless, having an additional 2 days also help to recollect my thoughts and what not.

time is moving really fast.. it is nearly the halfway mark of the year 2019. yeah, just let that sink in for a moment. looking back at the past 5 months, indeed i have learned quite a lot of things.. more things than i would expect. many things changed or are changing.. some can be a little scary but i always hope that i can somehow adapt well.

speaking of adapting.. my physical self is taking a small toll from the need to adapt quick in the sudden change in pace the last few days. not 100% healthy.. just when i just started being serious about training for IPPT.. great. pace has been much quicker in recent days. not only from work side but also personal life.. so many things including an exciting day this weekend when one of my cousins will be hosting his wedding ceremony.

in terms of work, kind of disappointed one proposal did not really fall through. but hey i guess that is a learning point. such fallbacks bound to bring about sadness but in time i shall use this sadness as motivation. new employees joining the office add colours to the office days too. there is another one next week as well.

today was a much need rest day.. thankful for the public holiday exactly in the middle of the week. i am not sure if i mentioned this before.. but i think if we ever have a 3rd weekend day, i think Wednesday is the best day to have it on. did stock up my army supplies and enjoy my day out.. truly eventful and well-used holiday. now i am chilling with Two Steps From Hell's latest album "Dragon" to end a good Wednesday. until next time then, cheers.

half-week weekend

yes this is an update of my life.

long weekend but i am not done with my weekends. while most people would have a long 3-days weekend thanks to Good Friday, i will be having a 4-days weekend that extends until the end of tomorrow. that is literally slightly more than half a week of weekend. nice break.

so the past week has been rather eventful. colleagues visiting from the UK, new interns, new recruit, new project challenges. cannot explain much on the last thing other than the fact that one project have moved on to a different phase and another two new projects require proposal writing that i will be more involved for the first time. for the one moving on to a new phase, it is rather satisfying and thrilling to watch the project progress. at times, i tend to lose sight of the bigger picture but now seeing the bigger picture really does put some things in perspective. i'm excited. as for the proposals, the challenges are relatively new. i can feel myself really outside of my comfort zone but i guess this is part of the learning process.

weekend has been packed as always. of the many things i did so far, i would like to specially mention that i finally wash my bike again.. since Chinese New Year.. lol. should really make it a point to do so more often rather than waiting to a point where the filth starts to disturb me. will be heading out to Sentosa tomorrow as well for the Pokemon Go Safari Event. cannot wait.. to have fun and get myself burnt. until next time then, cheers.
