Finding things to look forward to in life.

Wow it's been exactly 5 months since my last post. Life has been... tiring. 

2024 was eventful for me, albeit some depressing moments at work. I travelled to 5 different countries in 2024 -- Hong Kong, Thailand, Vietnam, Korea and Finland (where we also flew to Norway and took a cruise to Estonia).

I also went to so many concerts: Taylor Swift, ITZY, Stray Kids, Super Junior, G-idle, LANY, 2NE1.

Perhaps because I was so down at work that I spent my money on entertainment so heal my soul. I made sure to have something to look forward to.

But... 2025 has slowed down a lot for me.

I entered the year with nothing to look forward to. No travel plans, no concert plans. 

Work has also utterly drained me. I am now back in my old team, but my new assignment has been real tough. I didn't ask for a promotion but surprisingly a promotion was given to me. Not complaining, but I just felt like it was not the right time, because I had just returned to my team for 2 months and the boss decided to promote me. I felt like I didn't get to prove myself to show that I was deserving of this promotion. I also felt like I hadn't really gotten used to the things in the old team. 

My new assignment is very challenging. I am too exhausted to delve deeper into it but basically, this whole journey made me doubt myself a lot at work and I am now reduced to someone who is very unconfident, and that sucks, because I used to be so good at my job and now I just don't feel proud and confident of myself anymore. Each day I come home from work feeling tired and worst of all, little. 

I will write more about this when I am feeling better. Soon, I hope. 

That being said, I just want to update that I have gotten myself a Kobo. The Kindle experience was getting a little too meh, after they tried to take away our ownership of the books that we have paid for, which is pretty darn ridiculous.

Till the next post, when I am in better spirits.
