I feel like I'm just waiting for the happy bubble I'm currently in to burst.

So far, the major occupational hazard I face is probably liver failure. Followed by bankruptcy. I think the amount I've drank (and spent) in the past month is more than what I've had this whole year.

So the difficulty is maintaining work-life balance, like more work and less life. As weird as that sounds. I guess that's a good bad-thing right? It's fun and a great way to socialize with colleagues, but after a while it's just tiring. And I really don't want it to be a habit; like a default activity to fall back on when I wanna relax.

Meanwhile, here's a really young and talented songstress, Lucy Rose, that I've recently fallen in love with. Delicate vocals and totally heartbreaking lyrics that display maturity way beyond her 18 years. Her songs give me a lot of feelings.

you said you would be waiting

yes, hi there, I'm still alive


The Drums - Money

My life in a sentence: I wanna buy you something but I don't have any money

Life got in the way, so haven't been able to update much.

Hmm, so work's been greaaat. Haven't really done any real work yet, but the people have been really nice and the environment is so much better - less uptight and formal. Even in terms of what I wear. Like I feel overdressed in my long-sleeved work blouses, which were the standard attire previously. I think my previous job set me up such that it really lowered my expectations so that I'm happy even with teeny improvements haha.

But above all, I guess God deserves the full glory :)

I'm still way tired though. But the company shuttle does help ALOT. At least I get to snooze during the journey, though I get the fresh-out-of-bed look when I reach the office. All I have to do is make sure I get my butt to the MRT station on time, which usually means doing the 100m sprint.

Also, Aussie in November! :)))

(I have this irrational fear that vocalising the good things in my life will make them untrue. I hope I didn't just do that.)
