 My first post in 2026!  6 months into my surgery. I can do very lightweight jogging. I can walk alittle smoother without much limping (I still limp when it gets fatigue). I can straighten the knee only when it gets "warm up" by doing the stretching. I can climb upwards but going downwards on an uneven surface or too much of a height (like getting out of van) can still be alittle difficult (still have to hold onto something). The surgery indeed makes the knee becoming more stable. Although it is no longer the same as before, but well, this right knee is better than pre-surgery after the bad fall in March 2025. I hope 2026 will be a good year. 1) Completing my masters in June 2026 and convocation is gonna be in Oct 2026. 2) Travelled to K.L via the new KTM train. Went Perth and drove a campervan. Unsure where should I go for my Jul trip given that the middle east is alittle messy now. Going to Beijing in September with my 2 besties to celebrate our 40th. 3) Better managed rela...

 Suffered a bad fall when playing Lava Grid. Snapped my ACL and then, went back to the hospital I was working in to get it check. At first I was hoping its just gonna be sprain on the knee, but then, real true shit is, ACL was fully torn. Was then told by the surgeon that people can live with ACL tear, however, I had this uneasiness on my right side of the right knee, which is causing me alot of buckling of knee. I thought, well ok, let's just give it a go and travel overseas. So, in Aug, I went Taiwan with Evonne and Penang for my first ever conference, with Evonne as well. Buckled my knee so so many times during the Taiwan trip and thats when I decided I must undergo the surgery. Oh, by the way, conference is truly a great way to learn things fast. At least for me, details will bore me to death, and so, when presenters present in a way that's short and sweet, I am able to grasp and understand what they are saying. I hope there will be more conferences in SG for social workers...

2024 has been a year that I started to challenge myself on things that I never thought I will do.  Drive solo during my Nov perth trip was a total new challenge, not because of the driving but the distance of driving solo for 1300km in 3 days. Totally love it and that driving trip made me thought through alot of things, about life, about religion, about what I want and hope to achieve. I went back to school in Aug 2024. Started my Masters in Social Work programme. I like that I am back to school because it's new and refreshing, it's good to see newbies and seeing them reminded myself at why did I choose social work. Exam results was a total surprise, with one A-, one B and a C+. I think i do well and it sort of given a boost in my confidence of studying. I am excited about 2025, other than the time passing so fast every year, but i like to try and think about the uncertainties at the front journey. I know I will be well because I have truly a great bunch of friends. Wishing you...

Have the sudden urge in wanting to write an entry with my new nuphy60 keyboard. It just makes you feel so damn clever when typing away. The tik tik tiak tiak sound from the keys truly makes you look more clever. Just looks... Well, I have completed one travel with my friend and went Sydney, drove up to Brisbane. We did stopovers at Port Stephen, Port Macquarie, Coff Harbour, Byron Bay, Gold Coast and then to fly out in Brisbane. The whole trip took us about 12 days. For those who chanced upon this blog, I would suggest to only  drive when you are travelling out  of Sydney. The parking and tolls are insanely expensive than our carparks (exclude MBS lah hor) and ERP. Got another upcoming trip and it would be my last trip. Why is it a last trip? Well, I have been accepted (verbally only, waiting for the black and white) to study Masters in Social Work with SUSS. School is gonna start in July 2024 and honestly, I doubt I will have the time to go for long distance travels. Its gonn...

 I have been trying to keep my blog alive, at least for myself and not for readers (not as though I got readers). The first half of 2023 was a hell ride. I think the only good thing that has happened during the first half of the year was my 3 weeks of Europe trip. I was asked to reflect the issues that has happened way back in 2022 during my 3 weeks trip. Of course, travelling alone, I had lots of time to myself in reflecting the matter. It took me till near end of this year to come to realisation. Well, better late than never! I was in a relationship for a brief period and I am glad that has ended. Though I did not wish to be in that situation, however, I cannot have any control and it is very unfortunate that it happened. Its probably quite clear to me that I would prefer to stay single and just be by myself. Second half of 2023 consist of more excitement, with my sprained ankle, I did not do the Mount Kinabalu climb however it was a good trip for me, to explore Sabah abit and I ...

 Time now is 1.48am. Just out of the blue, I recalled I have a blog. I thought I have done an entry in 2022 but .... Well, 2022 has been a horrible year. I don't need to pen it down to remember this 2022. My first HR inquiry done in my whole entire 10 years of work life. I had alot of anger at the beginning but with support from very close friends I deemed, I am trying to let it go. I do not think I will ever forgive nor forget. But honestly, whatever that has happened in 2022 was one of the greatest lesson given to me, although not the worst though but yes, it can be like my top 5 lessons learnt. 2022 has also given me plenty of opportunities not just at work, but building relationships with friends that I deemed worth the effort and time and in return, indeed, relationships turned better. I truly appreciate to these friends who has appeared in my life, making my life so interesting. Well, 2023, I have done my travelling. Finally get away for a 3 weeks long trip to Eastern Europe....
