feb updates: life's great (hahaha not really)

2018 really has been quite crazy so far, even though it's just two months in. Time is moving by really really quickly and I think I really need to start trying to grab hold of it before it starts to spiral out of control.

So yes, I guess it's a strong reminder to self that I needa be more selfish and really block off time to really just think about what I wanna do with life and etc. As much as I honestly enjoy the company with my family and friends, I really miss my alone down time that I had before I started work. And I think I really underestimate the energy I need to sustain at work as a HR person hahahah.

I do enjoy talking to my colleagues and all that. But at the end of the day, the social energy level really depletes and you really just wanna either go home or spend time with people who you are so comfortable with that you can completely be yourself and don't have to socialise.

And to have that, I am honestly very bloody thankful to have really great people in my life who I can be myself completely. Like hanging out with them doesn't take up my social energy and that yea, it's just so easy to talk to them and have fun with them without doing anything much. These are really the best kind of relationships to have. And for people who are truly present when they are there. And those who really listens to you and genuinely cares about what is happening in your life and wants the best for you. For this, I am really grateful to have them in my life.

With that said, the past month of Feb has been pretty interesting too. There were two specific days I remember where I think I really lost my steam and drive to continue. I guess I just felt really lost and frustrated with everything that was going on. And no sense of direction whatsoever. Also to know that after working for 3 months, things didn't exactly got better or easier. Or rather, it actually felt worse. So I guess to come to that realisation that yes, work is never gonna be easy anymore and it's only gonna get more intense and more tiring, it hit me real hard. But yea, so after talking it out with my colleagues, my family, my friends, I manage to find myself back again to start moving. And I think also there were some things that were moving along at work as well. So that's greatttt. It's really additional motivation and it worked.

So yes, and honestly, I know it sucks so badly that now my posts are turning into job stuffs (blah). But I guess it's really very much part of my life now and I honestly do love it to most extend LOL there are hits and misses always, good times and bad times. As with any other jobs. So I guess it's really just always constantly remind yourself why you are doing what you are doing. And how to find that drive and motivation for it.

ADULTING hahaha but it's true though. This word is meh but I can really feel myself growing and learning more along the way. Just that yea, I feel this effyness in that I'm not exactly noting/documenting my own growth HAHAHA or rather learning stuffs also. And achievements? LOL small achievements ah. Small gains still matter lar hor. But yea, I guess that proper reflection time is something that I feel that I'm lacking now.

So yess, it's really time to force myself to just sit down and properly reflection. Stop feeling frustrated about not reflecting; it's ridiculous. That's why yea, really just make time for yourself if you really just need time to hear yourself think and reflect. It's a hygiene check and to honestly keep your own sanity. If you keep just thinking and caring about others, you will honestly go crazy. As humans, we really need to satisfy our own needs also lar hor.

And yes, one of the most important things I have learnt over the past few years is to appreciate what you have presently, regardless of what may happen in the future. The thing about the future is you really have no idea what will happen along the way and how things will turn out. So sometimes, you really just have to stop worrying so much, stop thinking so much. And just enjoy what you have right now. If stars are aligned, if fate allows it, if it is part of God's plans, things will work out eventually.

Have faith that things will work out eventually. That yes, whatever thats gonna happen will happen, if it doesn't, you still have the current good memory to look back on. That yknow, at least you had these great moments before. These moments are some of those who can define who you are now and how you think and all. So just enjoy this and give yourself the chance to enjoy it as well.

And of course, if you see something that you really want to hold on to, please hold on to them. Make the freaking effort because you really won't know when people and things will slip past you without you even knowing.
