A new journey begins.

Reading back my blogposts help me keep my life in check. So my previous post was about me looking forward to going into NIE, and now I'm graduating (again) in two weeks and starting my journey as a beginning teacher next week.

NIE was truly an amazing experience for me, going back to school, meeting a bunch of awesome friends and music-teachers-to-be. 26 years and I think that marked the end of my time as an official student, while I brave the storms in my new vocation. I'm anxious, I'm nervous, I don't know what to expect come next week, and the rest of the three years or longer. My disinterest for children really doesn't help sometimes and it drags me down. Will I be great, will I be average? At least it is heartening to know I haven't given up since my last post. So with that, I pen down that I will give it my best shot, and see where God leads me to, and hopefully next stage of life catches up soon enough from there.

Who am I?

Seems like the month of July and March are my blogging periods of the year, based on my previous posts hahahaha. But anyway.

I think it's time to pen down a new journey in my life, working full time, that is. I've been officially enrolled as an MOE teacher. For short, for long, I have no idea yet.

It's my third month in the job and I'm still having second thoughts about the contract. To be honest, I've done nothing musically enriching during this three months and I feel crappy about it. Everyone around me tells me that I'm in a great job, ending work before everyone else does (although I start earlier than everyone else too), that since I'm a music teacher I have no marking load unlike the other subject teachers, that I'm getting a stable income, etc. Well, I can say all the above are true for my case now as an untrained teacher, but it somehow doesn't make me happy since I'm constantly feeling empty inside. I have to consistently remind myself that I'm in a great job and trust me that ain't easy, since I'm not that positive to start with hmmmm.

Yet I know, that I'll probably have complaints about any other jobs, because that's how Life is, and we just have to deal with it. I guess the BIGGER question is, what do I want to do in life? What makes me happy? What am I made to do? I think we all face this quarter-life crisis, and just wished we were a kid again.

Now I am looking forward to being in NIE, for I truly miss being a student. Sigh. Let's see where the next blog post will take me.

So we went to Bangkok couple of weeks back for a 6D5N trip, and I decided to do up a vlog on the trip, consolidating everywhere we've been to in fifteen minutes!


Basically, the places of interest include:
1. Luxx Hotel - boutique hotel located in Silom
2. Terminal 21 - themed shopping mall
3. Central World - shopping mall
4. After You cafe - and their popular shibuya honey toast
5. Asiatique - shopping area away from the city
6. Dreamworld Bangkok - theme park
7. True Love Cafe - husky cafe that includes interaction with the dogs
8. JJ Green (Chatuchak Green) - Weekend Night Market
9. Seacon Square - shopping mall 
10. Rod Fai - Night Market

Jon and I spent a total of $1400 inclusive of accommodation, flight via scoot and all expenses! Pretty good deal for the six days.

Anyway, after this trip, I've decided to do more travel vlogs covering different parts of Asia, because editing the videos can be so fun and gives me a new reason to travel and explore more countries.

Till the next post!

Blogging because today is a day to be remembered:

1. Final class of my three years in Lasalle, though something I'm not graded for hahaha...

2. Made my first drive-in to JB tonight, four years after I got my license. Achievement Unlocked (:

3. The boyf stayed up all night just to help me complete my awesome website. I love it so much and once again you never failed to amaze me (:

And now, full-on for recital preparation!

PUMPED.

Just back from Bintan and already having withdrawal symptoms.

But because I'm so thankful for this man, so I've decided to journal all these down.

Day by day I'm starting to realize why I love you. Things have not been absolutely smooth sailing, what is anyway? We frequently argue (mostly because of my childish acts), we lose our temper, but we know for sure at the end of it all, we both want the same thing and have the same goal.

Thank you for always calming down and patiently asking me what's wrong whenever I throw a fuss because of my insecurities, spending all the time talking to me just to make sure I'm alright even though it's 12midnight and you have a test tomorrow (I'm incredibly sorry for that), and when I wake in the morning, you'd ask me if I feel better today.

You've also never fail to amaze me with your knowledge which you deem as general knowledge, for telling me stories and things that I've never heard of or knew about. Believe it or not, I'm really quite attracted by that (:

Thank You for entering my life seven years ago and for deciding to stay in it (:

Wow. Another five months it has been. Time flies.

Too much has happened over the past months, and I finally figured I should be noting this down, just in case my brain goes out of memory capacity.

I've probably had the craziest two months of my Life, everyday seems like a ride on a brand new roller coaster route. I could feel the most amazing, and the worst, possibly all in just a day.

But just let me believe that all these will be worth it. And one day we'll be free from it all. Just please, keep telling me to Hold On.

我鼓起勇氣吶喊
你要聽得見
我不許你在孤單
要你擁抱我
我給的溫暖 

我一直都在你身後等待
等你有一天回過頭看我
我的笑送給你希望你快樂
你的難過都給我
關於你的一切我都好好收藏著
