End of the year~

How time flies! It's finally the end of the year already...well, technically though not nearly YET

We are already in the 4th quarter of the year; and well, it seems to me that it's as good as the end already and I just love this part of the year...
I don't know when it first started but I guess we have all been mechanically programmed to the thought of holidays since our school days.
Remember how the longest semester break always seems to linger around the end of the year? I guess that's where it all started and that's why I am part of the statistics who just love year end for the holidays.

When it comes to the thought of holidays, it is all about relaxation, isn't it?
Hahaha...I start to imagine about vacations...
Yeah, the reason why it's imagination is because I am too swamped up with work these days to even take a day's off.

I was supposed to take next Monday/Tuesday off...well, take a little trip home and join my best mates for a slumber party (Halloween-themed) and then celebrate All Saints Day and visit my grandparents's cemeteries on All Souls' Day...yeah, all in one weekend.
I have yet to utilize 70% of my annual leave, and frankly, even I did not realize that I have not been taking leave this year!
Have I been that into my work?

I really need a vacation soon...I am in a vacation mood but yet at the same time, I am still thinking about my work so much...
I do need to be cautious about overworking, otherwise, I will be burnt out soon

But...again, holiday seasons are here...Halloween, Hanukkah, Thanksgiving...birthdays and yeah, Christ's birthday is coming soon too....oh, for the love of the holidays~

Not so bad, after all...

Things have been going good at the moment; well which is good as I have braced myself for the worst times.

Anyway, I guess this is the high tide times which I should be happy with; enjoying it and riding on the tidal waves of happiness and success.
Well, being the worry-wart me, I am still skeptical sometimes on the prospect of the looming bad times as well.
Perhaps I have been traumatized by some of the bad experiences?

Well, whatever, it seems that things are not looking that bleak anymore and I just need to learn to gear myself with the necessary equipment if the low tide is here again; anytime soon.

I am happyyyy...and yeah, it's good to be happy all the time...I like that!
Everything's fine now; except for the occasional hiccups in my sensitive health...and if you're one of those who's asking whether I am getting married, well, bin that...because we are talking about something else here =)

BE HAPPYYYY....I shall be.....as long as I want =D
A HUGE SMILE on my face, every day!

Vacation please....

I really want to go on a vacation....well, it was kinda sudden...it's like a sudden impulse and a lightning which just struck!

Actually I've been wanting to go on a vacation this year; but I didn't have the time to as I was so busy working and I didn't put much thought to it.
At the same time, there does not seem to be much holidays for us for the last few months.
Some of the public holidays and their replacements were taken off by my company to be replaced during the festive seasons and as a result, we are working through all the replacement holidays as well.
I think I still have most of my annual leave days left and I am saving them...well, for some festive seasons and also for my own vacation.

Now, I really want to go for a vacation so badly...
I am checking up on the places to go to....I am dreaming of a vacation already....
It's towards the end of the year anyway, and for my company, the last fiscal year has ended and we have started the new fiscal year.

It's time for a vacation...I think I really need some time off to relax and just chill!!!!

***Dreams of the destinations for my vacations*** (I shall not reveal at the moment, to be updated in my travel blog)

My lil Ergo beanie

I call this my little ergo-jelly-beanie!

Remember that I was having some discomfort with my right wrist which arose due to ergonomic problems?
Well, there are lots of ergonomic-friendly products out there; for your information to promote the healthy way and reducing the stress and tension on hands, neck, feet, back, etc.

I have another jelly beanie mousepad and used to have a long velvety wrist rest when I type on my keyboard at work; something which I really missed =(

Now, I got this as a gift from my good friend...THANKS THANKS!!
It's really cute and fun to use...and I really loved it a lot.

It is not a 100% help to reduce the discomfort but it was not too bad to play with sometimes.
Initially, I wanted to save it as I found it too cute to be used =P

If only it is also pink...LOL, then I will be very happy!!
But, since this is a gift, it's really cool already...and I must really thank that kind thought from this friend =)

It's portable and now, I bring it everywhere with me....wherever I got! =D

When justice speaks...

I believe in justice; I do...really.
I always believed that justice will be done eventually....because good always triumphs over evil.

It may take some time, but the Judgment will always come and everyone will be meted their rightful punishment or if they have been good, only reward awaits them.

Some may tell me that this is wishful thinking, but I still hold on firm to this dear belief, despite being in a superficial and nasty world out there.

It is known that things can be unfair all the time, but I still believe that it is a matter of time before justice can truly triumph.

For those of you whom I have confided in over the past few months, you probably know a little here and there about my predicament at dealing with a certain individual who have posed certain threat to me.
Sometimes I feel like history has indeed repeated itself; I never wanted to harm or sabotage anyone at all at work or in anything I do...I don't even want to harm an ant or an insect sometimes.

However, it is inevitable that when you don't want to find trouble, trouble comes for you.
It's really sad sometimes, and I know some people do it out of insecurity, But, this is a BIG BUT, don't they think of how they could hurt others in the process as well?

I know that sometimes we need to be selfish, but not to the extent of posing threats and harm to others.
I feel revolted when I look at all the superficial and fake laughs and handshakes being passed around.
As if you could pretend that nothing had happened?

Last week, I felt that justice has spoken; not in a big way but rather, in just a small way but enough to make me leap back into the stronghold of my faith that Justice truly does exist.

I have wanted to be a lawyer at some point; well, something that just crossed my mind. It's probably due to how I've wanted to fight and help people who are being bullied by the ones in wealth and power who could buy justice.
Yeah, it sounded noble? Well, some say I may be stupid for not thinking of financial benefits before I do that...
It was the same with my initial ambition of being a doctor, I have always thought of helping people through the pain and their sufferings, and it does not matter who they are.
When they lie on the bed, they are just the same as everyone else and all you can see is how weak they are and it angers me sometimes when I read about how some doctors turn away their patients just because they are poor and have no money to pay for the downpayment before the hospital or the specialists agree to treat them.
The same goes for how some innocents could be convicted of a crime which they did not even lift a finger to do it...
I can't say much now, since I am neither a doctor or a lawyer right? I don't want to pass judgment on anyone or anything pertaining to the two fields...

I know, life is full of injustice...and it is just everywhere, whether we like it or not and I am constantly in this push and pull situation.
I felt that I am suffocating in a world of pretense and fictitious people; beings who can stab you in the back and yet put their arms around you to hug you a few seconds later.

It is just so disgusting sometimes!

Well, I was pleased with something which happened last week...and I felt that I was not alone in a warring battle, where I used to think I only have one comrade.
Turns out, unexpectedly, I actually have more than one comrades...some are generals and lieutenants even!
I am happy, but I can't share much here....well, it's just something personal...and I still want to contain that excitement and happiness because I do not want to jinx it..

You know what they say when you speak too soon, and never count your eggs before they are hatched..

I don't hope for a glorious victory; but it suffices that there is a tiny speck of justice after all...and I must thank those little gifts sent by God to comfort me...

Justice does exist...and it will prevail... =)
