How Did Time Pass So Fast!

 Totally forgot about this blog until I received the email from Sample Store. My last post was about CNY in February... And whoa, it's already mid August now! Half year passed by just like that!

Just a quick recap...

Mar

Bought new phone... iPhone 11 Pro! Thank you iPhone 6S. You have served me well all these years.

Apr

The COVID-19 situation got so bad that the Circuit Breaker (CB) was activated and we had to work from home. The good thing about it was, I'm blessed with a good company who cares for our welfare... Took steps to ensure our good health and safety as well as not cutting our salaries. Phew! And it was nice to be able to work at home with Zai and Fluffy by my side.

May

Chanced upon Feng Jiu. She's a beautiful fox carved using red rutilated quartz. I named her after the character from "Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". She sparked my interest in Nine-Tail Fox. Spent a lot of money. *Cough cough* But I now have a cool collection which I love a lot! And my foxes did seem to bring some positive changes to my life. Even Gean commented that my vibes seem changed (in a better way).

Jun

Back to office! Partially. Was so excited to see my colleagues again! Miss them loads! But as we haven't come out with a vaccine for COVID-19 yet, we are still working from home most of the time.

Alfred started this 21 Days of  Abundance Program. It was fun! And it got me back onto the journey to discovering my spirituality as applying Laws of Attraction in my everyday life.

Jul

Happy birthday, Cookie! Always in my heart and never will be forgotten. Miss you, my darling angel baby!

GE 2020... No surprise for AMK. As usual, FB was full of nasty posts. (Every time. Buay sianz meh.) Not interested in politics, so ya. :)

Bought a new pair of spectacles! Like, finally. *Laughs!* Had a severe eye infection suddenly in the middle of the night and scared me half to death. Luckily my eye is okay now. Wearing spectacles and staying away from contact lenses for the time being. (Also partly because I'm lazy to doll up. LOL.)

Aug

Happy birthday, Singapore! Majulah Singapura! Was surprised to see the fireworks from my house. Later I read from the news that they actually arranged for fireworks at 10 different locations this year! Whoa!

It's also the birthday month for Zai! Right after his birthday, I brought him to Dr Gino for dental appointment. AT LAST. Costed me about $500 but everything went smoothly. Thank God! Zai is in great health and only need to extract 2 teeth. His teeth are not black anymore! Yay!

Feeling so blessed that my life is getting better and better! I have so much to be thankful for; everyday has been so joyful! Shall end this entry with the quote below... Blessed be!

大年初三

 

Oh my, time flies when I don't have to work! Didn't do anything much but it's 初三 already!!!

 

---

 

Today's meal~

 

 

---

 

Lazed around, watching show... 三生三世枕上书 is out!!!

 

Before I knew it, it was quite late at night already. Saw Zai sleeping on my bed. So cute!

 

 

Always feel blessed whenever I see him sleeping peacefully. ♥

Going back tomorrow... Argh!

 

大年初二

Mama came over to my house for CNY.

 

So funny that it's her coming to my house instead of the other way round...

 

(Okay lah, I think she wants to check if I'm been keeping my house tidy or not! Haha!)

 

---

 

Mama said she wants to watch Channel 8's CNY variety show~

 

 

Quite surprised to see Zai accompanying her like this.

 

---

 

Dinner!

 

 

Yumz~ (And I love my Bruno!)

 

---

 

Jumbo Prawn!

 

 

Unsurprisingly, Zai quickly came to ask for food... :D

 

 

 

Wah biang, no waist liao! Haha! (

 

 

 

 

大年初一

Supposed to go temple with my mum but I didn't feel too well and ended up sleeping until afternoon.

 

 

After some consideration, I decided to give it a miss this year. Feeling unwell + the Wuhan virus is circulating... Better not take any risk.

 

Didn't have to work yesterday. But oh my! Didn't do any CNY-ish things these 2 days! How did time pass by so fast? :O

 

But okay lah, at least I had a good rest. :)

Financial Goal for 2020!

Since I've started on my new job and gotten a higher salary (increase a bit only lah, heehee), it's time for me to start saving money again!

TARGET: Save at least $5,000 by Sep (my birthday)!

1st Day of Work... Again!

Reporting for work at SPTel today!

Had been so afraid of oversleeping as I only started work at 9.30am previously... So I decided not to sleep at all!

What a BAD decision...

But I think I still slept a bit. THANK GOD, I managed to wake up in time! But somehow I delayed leaving the house and to play safe, I decided to take a cab instead of waiting for bus 86. Moreover it was starting to drizzle!

And while I was contemplating, I spotted a cab! 

Okay lah, takeeeeee!

Farecab was only $6+. Woohoo!

---

Pleasantly surprised to see my desk! It's very nice, spacious and it's labelled with my name! There was also a welcome kit and a new yoga mat!

I love it!!!

---

Later the IT guy came and set up my laptop for me... Brand new laptop and optical mouse! (But I think I gonna bring my own wireless mouse to use at work, haha! Don't like wires.)

Realised that the pantry is very nice!

---

Jean brought me around and introduced me to everyone. They all seemed friendly and nice! But a bit worried because there are so many of them and I'll be the one bringing new hires to introduce to everyone next time... Hope I can remember the names and departments soon!

Dawn taught me how to do her tasks... So chim! Kinda worried if I can do them well! But I shall just try and see! Hope to stay long in this new company!

---

I guess it's a blessing in disguise! Left Shimizu but I got a better job now! :)

Goodbye KFC, Pizza Hut...

Time flies... It's my last day there.

So grateful for them for offering me job (even though it was just a temp) when I was jobless.

Also thankful for being kind to me and I really appreciate them making me feel like I'm part of the team and not just a temp staff.

On my first day of work, Carol added me to their HR WhatsApp group. We had lunch together. When I talked, they listened and responded. They made me feel like I belonged there even though I'm just a temp and will be leaving very soon.

Today is my last day. They told me to keep in touch and they will jio me out for makan. It's funny how I was there for barely a month and yet my relationship with them was much better than my relationship with those at my previous company. 

So blessed to meet kind colleagues after being in a toxic environment for so long!
