Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day

SMALL FORWARD - BLOODHOUNDS

Have been busy with discussions over the new home, with my family, over the past few weekends. We would leave home in the morning and return home in the evenings. Tile shops, lighting/bathroom store, aquarium shops, and dropping by the new house. Haven't been going out much, meeting friends or people... though weiqi has invited me to join her and her colleague for dinner next week (always meeting new friends through my close friends)

26 February 2022
The day for my mom's and my staycation has come... again ;) Used my dad's rediscover voucher cause he didn't wanna use it. Booked a night at Conrad Centennial, and gtta say, the room was spacious and clean. Our view was of the Kallang river and Suntec City's fountain of wealth (which of course also means we're facing the office buildings). It was nice nonetheless, and the room service was great (seeing how the housekeeping staff was able to adhere to my mom's countless requests 'v')

We headed to meet my brother, sis-in-law and dad at Wagyu Yakiniku Wano Niku (near Tanjong Pagar area) for dinner. It was dee-li-cious! Budget wagyu meal at its best! Afterwich, they headed to our hotel room to chillax, and left late around 9pm. Had a short soak in the tub, bathed, drank a bottle of sparkling rose alcohol which my mom brought and watched moives before heading to bed. But... got woken up in the middle of the night by her snores, hence, I didn't have a proper sleep :) Followed by another whole day of shopping for the new home.









Been so tired despite the weekends, but worth it~ When I think about the new room I could decorate, and the queen size bed I could place in it ᵕᴗᵕ My parents also agreed to hang my uncle's punching bag (he didn't have any place to hang it after moving to his new home last year) at the backyard -ᴗ-

Whoever you are, and whatever helps, I hope today is a day you are finding the softest way through

JEREMY ZUCKER & CHELSEA CUTLER - THIS IS HOW YOU FALL IN LOVE

Found these on tumblr...
When Haruki Murakami said, “Sometimes I feel like a caretaker of a museum - a huge, empty museum where no one ever comes, and I’m watching over it for no one but myself.”

And when Audrey Hepburn said, “Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can’t take it in all at once.”

“I know this transformation is painful but you’re not falling apart; you’re just falling into something different, with a new capacity to be beautiful.”
(William C. Hannan)


Been through a crazy day at work yesterday, to the point of breakdown or malfunction by the end of the day -.- Felt so much lighter today, also with something to look forward at the end of the day -ᴗ-
