Well, the last post has been seriously tooo long ago. Haven been lazing around but been going to gym and trying hard to shed some of those unwanted suppers i had consolidated during the past couple of years.

Work wise, i will say that i am feeling at the lowest point of my work life in my current company. Feel that the amount i am doing do not justify the payout especially when we talk about dollars and cents. And with my personality, i will compare and feel that why am i always not moving when i have been working so hard through my life?

Putting all aside, i think i am getting more and more low profile at work. Keeping myself quiet and talking to the minimal few closer ones that i feel a need to talk to. And i think alot of my colleagues noticed the change and yeap, a moment of awkwardness around. But think about it, who cares? People come, people go. :D

Just feeling empty and sad.

Don't know why.

BOO!



Well, Year 2013 attacked me in a flash and now, we are approaching the end of Jan'13. This month in particular has been a rather hectic month for me in particularly the first month where i start to smell freedom. No more schooling, rushing for assignment but to do what i want and relax my mind. Somehow completing my degree program seems like a sign of relief more than anything else.

And in the midst of thinking how to tackle boss to check with her regarding my progression in my current company, she took the lead and she speaks to me like as though she sense that i may be leaving the company. She informed me about what she has in mind for me and for the work that i am currently doing. In short, she wish that i can be the one anchoring the independent service and taking charge. *This is a form of mix feeling within me honestly.*

Looking at the past 2 years of life passed in a blink and definitely this is the company that i have been working for, so far for the LONGEST as compared. I guess it's the people around the annoying working environment that keeps me moving forward in the organization. Now it's to seriously think through what exactly i want in life as the next move that i am required to take will definitely requires some planning.

And also, I am quite happy that at least for the month, I have been fulfilling to my 2013 resolution of heading to exercise more frequently. Currently clocking about 2-3 times a week heading for cardio lessons and indeed, i feel more pro-active, less tired and stronger. This hard work for the past 7 weeks have resulted in a loss of 2 kg. I hope i can hold on this fire for the next couple of months so to achieve my targeted weight. :D

On a side note, Singtel has called me up regarding an APP called  "Loop & Meet" which i have recently downloaded. They have invited me down for discussion study with a group of 3 others consumer and provide our feedback with regards to the app. In general, our LIKEs and DISLIKEs will be in the media firm's report. This short 1.5 hours have rewarded me with a dinner take-away and a cash token of $100 for appreciation. Next's up is the 1-1 discussion, 1 hour for $150 on this Sat. Wish me Luck~

Lastly, tomorrow is my company's liner party. Hope i can win something as i think owning a Ipad Mini or a New TV seems relatively cool~ So, Ti Gong pls po pi me. :)

With loves,
Karine

Finally decided to take sit back and think about what i will want to achieve in the upcoming year 2013, i will say that it's always good to set a goal and look back to see if it has been fulfilled.

2013

1. Decide what i want to do for a living - I really feel that i need to re-look into the job prospect over at my current company. Somehow i feel it's very mundane with the routine work and in-cooperation with some of the fellow colleagues. Not to mention the lack of appreciation over at the existing firm so i guess it should be time to look into better offer around. At least one that offers me better peanuts for the same shit i am doing.

2. Travel more - Traveling has always been a love for me where it's never enough if let's say we do not have annual leaves restriction. I always want to try backpacking or even, traveling for at least a month or so to slowly look around the other side of the world.

3. Get back in shape - Have been having irregular sleep and meals for the past years and supper was a good friend of me to give me some sweet boost for the endless assignment. And since i have officially ended school, i need to dedicate my time to exercise to get back in shape.. or even, in that old pair of jeans that i used to love so much~

4. Put myself ahead of others - This is always something that i have a hard time trying to improve on. To put myself ahead of others, THINK more for myself instead. Try to live for myself, try to be brave to decide for myself.

5. Roll money - I noticed that currently with the peanut salary, i can barely save with all the expenditures i have on hand. I will need to learn to roll my current asset by multiply it to even more.

I guess these are the standard few that i am always looking forward for the year to fulfil upon.

So 2013, i am seeing you in about 45 minutes time. Let's hope things will turn out well for me and for you.

Bye 2012~~~ :D 


Well, 2012 is coming to an end in approximately 1.5 hours and i decided to turn on my Toshiba laptop to start looking into resolutions while watching Taiwan Drama Series. I will say that 2012 is a pretty drastic year for me where there isn't much constant in life, everything turn out to be a variance instead.

When i tried looking through my blog for Dec 11's resolution post, i noticed that i did not post so. Guess the year 2012 has been pretty much aimless, no goals and objectives in life other than slogging hard for my studies. And i went in further to dig for 2011's resolution... It may seems a little outdated and i seriously have no idea what i want to achieve for THAT year. So here it is for some self-reflection time:
2011
1. Study harder and complete another 2 semesters this year, tentatively another 10 subjects, hopefully i can score pretty decent grades for these.
(2012 - Well, i completed ALL my modules in 2012 and i am officially graduating with a 4.06/5 for my GPA so i guess i managed to fulfil to this.)

2. Probably find a job that i enjoy working and of which, i can excel in. Am looking around for some MNCs and hopefully, i can get in. (Even if it's initial lesser pay)
(2012 - I guess this is a little hard to justify. Afterall, i am still stuck in my current job, doing the same thing for the past 1 year 10 months. Maybe i should really look into it for my 2013~)

3. Hoping for some traveling around session
(2012 - Despite alot has changed but the love to travel around is still duperly lots. For the past year, i have managed to head to Malaysia, Taiwan, Bangkok and Japan, so i guess i managed to fulfil this as well~)

4. Better time management, where i can allocate better timing for my school, work, dating, friends and myself.
(2012 - I will say that i totally screwed my time management for the past one year as i have given up on my beauty sleep for work and school so i will need to improve on this aspect)

5. Work out more often, ever since i stopped my California fitness, i haven pretty much been exercising to keep myself strong, need to exercise and not be so lazy.
(2012 - Oh, i signed back California Fitness again and this time round, it's for 3 years. Muhaha, really need to be back in shape REAL soon~)

6. Speak up more often, many times where i don't usually express my inner thoughts to people and keep it within me. Sometimes i may be crude, but those are comments which i will say and forget type.
(2012 - i will say that i still sucks in this area. Yea, i am crude and straightforward. But when i am upset or angry, i just keep mute and choose not to mention a single word. I guess this is just ME ba~)

7. Save moolah, this always seems to be the hardest as im always broke. HAHAHAHA~ Really need to start some force-saving session going on.
(2012 - Still the same o' Karine, din't managed to save much. I guess majority of this issue because i get peanut, spend peanut and save peanut. LOL!)
