If you’re looking for a master procrastinator, you’re at the right place. June 2020 was when I last blogged, and boy has it been a wild ride (which is still kinda going on). Also Happy New Year to everyone! Hope 2022 is full of hope, health and happiness for the world!
It’s not just the pandemic which has been a wild ride, I’ve been working, applying to grad school, dealing with the mental stress of COVID, planning to migrate, oh and I got married too!
Yes, my boyfriend and I decided to tie the knot towards the end of 2021. Travel logistics were a nightmare in-between it all, considering he lives in London and I in Singapore. However it all eventually worked out, and now I have a husband (still feels odd saying this)!
What prompted me to write again? A few things;
- Hearing my parents arguing about something petty, which started annoying me, so I just wanted a space to vent it out
- Having a writers-block when it comes to my grad school essays – I have no idea what to say, and yet everyone around me says I’ve accomplished a lot (have I really?)
- I’m in the middle of reading “the poppy war” by R.F. Kuang who is literally a few days younger than me (and who is actually accomplished – she published an award-winning series of books), and felt inspired to express my inner-author and improve my writing (not sure how blogging will help, let’s see)
- Somewhere I can be myself, say what I want, and let loose? I find it hard to write in my diary, I get bored, or my hand starts aching, so I just get uninspired and don’t write. Thought perhaps this is a good way to free my thoughts, and give my brain a kick again
- I’m awfully bored of my work, I need something invigorating to do
I don’t expect anyone to read this, lowkey hope nobody will although I’m publishing it.
Yeah, I hope my next post isn’t 2 years from now, will try to actually log more of what’s happening in life, especially with my move to London over the next few months.
Until then, ciao!
