i've been slackin away at work.. something that is UNUSUAL. i just hope that this feeling will soon go away with the turn of the month. if there's one thing i've learned in recent months from someone important to me, it's to just ensure that work is work and we shouldn't get affected by it. how many times i told myself this, i've lost count!
i took a day leave from work and it felt good to be out with the boy while others are slogging hard at work.. going to sentosa was fabs, especially when it's free sunny! so relaxed, so high (went to sky tower & merlion!) my worries and thoughts were diminished on that day. hmm.. were they? yes, i hope... it's been quite an emo month for me due to a lot of things that have been coming my way. my family, friends, future... she told me once that people are most afraid of the things that they can see in the future.. more than fearing the unknown. it's so true, at least for me. i've been worryin too much about things that it came to a point of being sick of whatever situation that i am in. but things have been changing quite a bit after THAT incident. i hope it continues to be so..
i had an interesting time with a journo from JB last week. i learned about how to handle the press better.. how to taichi difficult questions. and been putting some of these new found knowledge into practise with some of the things am doin at work. i guess, all's not bad if you find something for yourself in that pile of shit. hmm...
went to the gym yesterday with the boy and thought of gettin myself a new pair of shoes to look good & chic give my feet better support. the old shoes i bought 7 years ago has been trying to detach itself from its sole. 7 years ago means that i bought the shoes when i was in sec 2. i remember those shoes cos it was a pair i bought after a useless pair of nike. nike was all the craze back then when i was in school. i spent quite a bomb on that! but that one nike pair didn't last me for long and i decided to get a reebok. and it lasted me for 7 years.. am quite reluctant to get rid of it, though. and anyway, it's quite difficult to get a pair of decent shoes for a good price these days. AND! they don't usually have my size! phoof! it ALWAYS end up this way. i guess it's a sign... not to spend money.
