Its a new month to reJULvenate

It's the start of a new month, a new life. Recently closed another chapter of life that occurred for the past 6 month! New friendships were forged, and definitely, so much more memories to look back to. Nevertheless, 6 months ended in a blink of an eye, and I'm really grateful for the people I met (and kept), and the experiences I went through. Now, it's the start of a new month, and the start of a new chapter of life (soon)!!! Can't wait to see what the next 6 months will unfold for me, and the new things that I will learn in my next internship! :) Something amazing that also happened was actually a burden that got off my shoulders, i.e. really not caring and not giving 2 shits about a person who doesn't care less about you. Honestly, I sort of felt free from all burden and anxiety when I decided to not care about a person who doesn't put me as a one of the priorities. Yet again, a lesson learnt from here is to never trust someone so easily and so wholehear...

Mid-June thoughts

6 months past really quickly... In a glance, so many things happened - be it good or bad. Forged new friendships; earning some recognition at work; a steep learning curve at work. Yet at the same time, some major family problems, insecurity and trust issues surfaced yet again.  Finally learnt how to start trusting new people I just met and slowly letting them into my fortress. Some have managed to completely break down my fortress, while others are probably still not there yet. Every time when I'm about to fully trust someone again, their actions and behavior forces me to reconsider whether I'm making the right choice or not. It is not easy to trust someone and then suddenly one day, having that trust broken.  Sometimes, I also wonder how I stand in importance to someone - how much of a priority I am, how much effort a person is willing to make for me no matter how tough the circumstance is... It's hard to be understanding when you put yourself first and yet, yo...

Korea Winter Trip Part 2

Image
The trip to Korea was really fun - the food, travelling between different cities and enjoying the winter season (even though we were too early for the snow). Day 1: Flight from Singapore to Korea (Overnight) This was a shot taken during our flight. Overall, it took us about 2 hours from SG to Vietnam, followed by a 3 hours transit before another flight to Korea for ~4.5hours.  It was really exciting to be on a free & easy trip in a non-English-friendly country to be independent and taking charge of the itinerary planning. The subway lines are little complicated so it will be good to have a map of the different lines. One thing to note is that the Koreans are very fast-paced in the subway and there are designated (unspoken) seats in each cabin specially reserved for the elderly. Day 2 - Arriving in Korea, Dongdaemun, Samcheongdong & Noryangjin Wet Market After arriving Korea, we took the AREX train followed by the subway to where we were staying - Ramada ...
