Counter Offer

No, I didn't get an offer for me to counter. Why would I decline my 'dream' job? Haha...

I was asked to cover my office counter (a.k.a. reception desk) yesterday while the rest were busy about for CCA Awards Ceremony at TCC. Thanks to my foot condition which still allowed me to drive to school, I'm now actualizing this fantasy to do customer service.

Well, not that my real job does not involve customer service, and reception work is not exactly some brainless and stress-free duty either. Maybe I like it cos I know it's not my real job. It's doing something different. Hmmm... it's like getting to enjoy playing with somebody's kid and get to return to them when the crying or whining starts. Ahahahaha...

At least I could contribute to the event by releasing all non-disabled staff and I felt less guilty for having to absent myself. Nobody is indispensable, but it is vital that everyone plays their role well. So I'm quite grateful that I could still be a part of it.

So I've been indulging myself in Korean drama while I was stuck at home for the past few days. It has been moments of in-and-out-of-reality experience. Haha... It is amazing how we can be detached from one state of mind into another when our senses are captivated and our heart and mind engaged. Mood changes, and just for those moments, even what's depressing can be forgotten.

Maybe that's how most people would cope during tough times, when the one's spirit is down. Suicide would be the extreme to those who have no more courage to live through another day.

Aiyo, how come my post become so morbid??!!! Emo sey! Ok, detach, detach! Cut down Korean drama already!!! I know, watch the funny ones. They're usually very good. I think our local productions should seriously look into the speaking ability of the actors before casting them. Some of them, once they speak, you feel like switching channels. Having said that, I also don't know how good the actors in the Korean drama are speaking their own language. Sekali some also cannot make it. I read subtitle only. Lol!!!

I'm on leave today because of my foot again. Getting a bit worried of this prolonged state...

Dol-awass-eo • Back I think that’s what it means la. Act cool only. 😂  This picture's got nothing to do with this post, but I happy just want to put it here la...#tb27032023 Context: Today my bff reminded me that a while back she asked me to revive my blog and start writing again. So here I am, sitting in McD thumbing my comeback essay (eee…this word still brings the shivers) which could even be my last since I seriously don’t know where I’m heading with this. But one thing I can say though, the tagline of my blog still stands. Bandaged to be able to leave my heart. Not trying to be emo but it’s the truth. One type of bandage recommended by my bff is called “Manage Myself”. This includes not expecting to change others but managing my own expectation of how others can/should change. I haven’t read my previous posts since I last wrote (Dec 2016) but I vaguely remember one such emo post where I mentioned about less expectation = less pain. I can’t recall what caused me to write somet...

Friendship Inc.

Quite a lot has been running through my head for the past few days, in particularly, the issue of friendship - what it meant to me in the past and what it means to me now. People around me have asked me, "Cynthia, do you have a best friend?" or simply, "Who are you close(r) to?" I don't know what the kind of answers they are expecting out of me and why they would want to know, but everytime such a question is asked, I can't immediately give an answer. It probably sounds kind of strange. I mean, if it's my close or best friend, wouldn't the answer be really straightforward and requires little thought to it? But yet I find that I'm unable to respond. All around me, I find that people are often seeking to be someone's special someone. It doesn't necessarily mean boyfriend-girlfriend kind of relationship. I mean isn't it nice to know that you have a special place in someone's heart, especially if that someone is one whom you find that...
