Oh Today!
Today, I mean Saturday was eventful. I had a quick nap with Ann in my cousin’s room. I have been pretty beat lately due to my mental exhaustion from thinking. Cracking this brief, trying to build this brand.
I took another nap just now after feeling so so down from the expected shit. Now my mind is boggling on how to solve it, I know I always pull through. But once in a while can’t I walk down an easier path?
I understand the fact that Allah challenges his toughest soldiers. Don’t I deserve a break once in a while? Cut me some slack too.
I’d be ok tomorrow. I know I will.
Two proposals done. One more proposal to be done. One marketing plan and I’m solid for the week ahead with some BD to develop.
I can and I shall do this.

In all the falling, flawing, failing,
there is the grace of learning,
of shedding an old life, for a new,
let a new life happen to you.

Not The Same
Different people, different stroke.
I strongly believe in this saying. It’s so simple yet explains how different individuals do things. I don’t think it is bad. I think there is strength in everyone. There is always good in the bad.
However, not everyone thinks so. Which is sad. Because if society saw this as a plus point, together we can achieve so much more. Leverage on each other’s strength.
I for one know that I am not build like you or you or even you. I am my own woman, with my own strengths and weaknesses. I am perfectly imperfect with room to improve and grow. But today, my positivity took the best of me.
It saddens me time and time of how this basic thing isn’t recognized. I have never expected anybody to be me or to be like me. I accept people the way they are without judging, if they don’t tickle my fancy, I will walk away and save myself from it.
This current situation that I am in has proven itself that it is set to doom on loop. I expected more thinking that experience would give it an upper-hand but I’ve been proven wrong multiple times.
Two of my greatest strength are :
- Play pretend
- Selling smoke
However, it is not noticed. My background and accomplishments carries no weight to it cause nothing can be seen beyond it. My award says a lot but nothing to who does not want to appreciate the strength of others.
Do I prevail or do I go back to my own strength and rely on myself.
I am pass the age and stage of life where I wanna be consumed by misery, happiness is key to me. My sanity too.
Ya Allah give me the right guidance and strength to push through a lil bit more.
Escape
I haven’t been getting adequate amount of sleep of late. It has made me pretty cranky and when I pushed myself pass my limits, I knew. I knew so well I was going to fall sick. But this stubborn soul, rarely listens to herself.
However I am really appreciative over the fact that I am constantly reminded of sleep and keeping myself hydrated. I don’t get enough of it. So I have been trying to up it.
I hate falling sick, because when I am sick I get bored. I am constantly sleeping and that is when I am off work. I don’t think being sick justifies as a break when I do nothing for myself or productive at all. I’m not fidgety but I do like being able to be productive and do things that I love.
It got me thinking, this is not the break I want to have. Not sick breaks. I want breaks where I’m out having fun, spending time with people that I love or doing things for myself and spoiling myself. Not this. I deserve real breaks right? Should I just wait for my next Euro trip or should I take lil trips in between.
Currently Baby and I are toying with the idea of Penang next month. I haven’t done Penang this year. I could do with good food, the beach, some cycling and lots of lazing around. I need it for my own sanity. I initially wanted to go for Winter Wonderland, but thanks to my first two quarters of 2017 that got so effed up. I can’t afford it. Sigh.
I’m gonna sleep on this idea of Penang. I kinda think it is a good idea.
Mondayitis Wise Words
We have expanded wisdom and self love. We know that behind every smile is probably a tear or two. Behind every tender stroke could have been a moment of compromise, and we hope that, in the strangely single land when we finally leave it, it is with calmness, maturity, bigness of heart and soul such that the love is all consuming and nothing is a compromise. We would have met the man or woman who is our true soulmate ,who may be different from us in every way but because what we love are the differences, maybe the smelly feet, not so funny jokes and quirkiness but it isn’t a compromise. We can truly embrace the saying, it is not how much you love the perfection but it is in loving the imperfection that spells true love.
