It’s been… hmmm…
CNY was pretty much as expected I think. Wish we had reunion dinner at home this year, but it was not to be. So we had it in some restaurant that was mega packed. Every time we have reunion dinner outside, we end up being dissatisfied and complaining, I don’t even know why we continue to try. And it’s so damn expensive! My goodness, when I heard the amount my aunt paid for the dinner… Let’s just say that we could have reunion dinner three times if we had it at home instead.
But I was just thinking. Since I got back, I’ve pretty much been a busy bee. I really only had a week’s holiday before I started working, and then meeting up with people after work, attending LG, church and all… I would like to have a holiday. I haven’t been this packed since… The last time I was back home. HAHAHA! I’ve gotten used to the pace of life in Hawaii and Australia. Sleeping in on the weekends, chilling on the beach or just hanging with Reem in the kitchen, walking around the city or uni…
Life’s quite a bit slower there. Yeah I do go out of my mind with boredom sometimes, but I’m wondering if that’s better than just running around and around and around.
I hate the mornings here cause I wake up and just don’t wanna face the sun. My battery recharges by lunch time, but still… Getting out of bed is so hard because… I don’t wanna work! And yeah, just because my bed’s so comfy and warm and my bear’s there too.
So here I am, sitting in the office, after the CNY festivities and all, having so much trouble keeping my eyes open. Didn’t even bother with any make up today cause I just stood there staring at my stuff and didn’t feel like it. And I ask myself what am I doing here, working during my holiday back home?!
Ok ya, the money doesn’t hurt. Yes, I could possibly go crazy at home with nothing to do… But I should have gotten some part time job or sth where I work like 3 days a week.
Since this is just me being whiny and complaining… MOVING ON.
Coldplay’s Fix You came up on my iTunes playlist, and one line really caught me, “When you get what you want, but not what you need.” The song’s pretty bleak at the start, but hey we all go through times when we feel like that, no point hiding from it.
Been so busy the last few days that I haven’t really gotten around to reading more of my book, but I’m about halfway through I think and there’s a lot to chew on. It’s so easy to read, but it leaves so much for one to think on…
Today’s song: Fix You – Boyce Avenue (Coldplay Cover)
When you try your best, but you don’t succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can’t sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can’t replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
