Life After Marriage

It has been a while since I last blogged and now it's past midnight and time for me to churn out a post. After all, my mood has been really affected after my supervision two days ago and I tell myself that this is the last day that I would still think about it. Tomorrow is a brand new day and I shall stop ruminating on what they said about me, because, truly, they do not know me as a person and I shall not let these strangers affect how I define myself.

That aside, focus on happy things of my life, such as how I managed to redeem 4 toys from Giant supermarket under the Goodness Gang. You need to spend $180 ($10 for 1 stamp, 18 stamps required to redeem one toy) But you think a cheapo like me would splurge just to get the toys? Of course not, owe it to my colleagues who do not want the stamps. And so the freebie is mine! Yay

Anyway, look at how time flies! Breadman and I have been officially married for 4 months! So what's life like after marriage? *Long pause* Erm, actually no difference because we are still staying apart while waiting for our BTO to be completed, and true enough, "no house, no spouse" especially in Singapore's context, so we are still akin to girlfriend/boyfriend stage. Haha, thus, merely just a status change and I gained his family name, so sometimes my colleagues would make fun of me by calling me Mrs Yeh, though I told them I still like my own surname very much and Mrs just sounds so old! Anyway the wedding banquet is up in 8 months' time, and so far I have not done much preparation for it as I am too busy with my school work and practicum. Thus, I havent transformed into a bridezilla yet, not just yet. Hahah... I have sorta asked around at my workplace to get the rough estimate of the number of guests and so far I think for my friends and colleagues, it would make up to 7 tables. So for I have settled the venue, the makeup artist, photographer, as well as signed a package with the bridal studio. Thus, I am still pretty chill and zen about it at this stage. The next big thing would be going to select The Dress and for me I guess I would either be going for a v-neck style or most likely off shoulder style because they are the more flattering cuts for curvy girls like me. UNLESS, I can shed off pounds and have a slender body. For the evening gown, likely shiny dress or lacy dress and very likely it would be darker shades, instead of lighter shades because my skin tone is yellowish and I will not look well in it. Also, my colleagues have been asking me if I wanted a theme and I have been thinking. A theme would be fun and guests can feel free to dress up, but of course no obligation to follow the theme, cuz it is just for fun. My nurses would also sing a couple of songs and Ed Sheeran's Perfect is one of them :) You know how boring weddings can be right? I remember yawning at a couple of marriages I attended, thus if there's some form of entertainment then that's better. If not, everyone's just waiting for time to pass and eyeing on the food.

Anyway, that's all for tonight. Happy 4 months of marriage, Breadman! Hope life can continue to be sweet with you even as we have our own mini-me versions :D

Yeah!

I topped the class for my class assignment! 90 marks! Second time so far, yet still feeling as good as ever, probably because such a thing never happened to me during my Psychology days in university and good grades and me weren’t such a good association anyway.. I was just that average student in class. Hence, this is such a self-esteem booster for me and perhaps, Social Work’s really my calling. Haha... keeping it up!

Positive Reinforcement

Today, I received a compliment from a family member, who initially asked me if I were a full-time permanent staff working at the nursing home. After I responded to her, she went on to add on this liner:
You are a very good worker you know?
Wow, this liner is simple yet powerful! This totally made my day as I was having a hard time having to juggle my practicum, work, and school assignments as well as not forgetting my new found husband. Haha.. what a way to put it! Words of praise like this, make me feel appreciated and reminds me again, why I am in the social sector right from the beginning.
