3 things about today

1. On my wrist today.

Do you feel creeped out by the eye staring at you?! Hahaha. I took this picture at work during a brief moment when I was bored. The rest of the day was horrible. There was a cock up at work today and my manager was pretty busy trying to solve it. While he was busy, I asked him a question to affirm the decision I was about to make. He became very frustrated and ask me to just "reply and ask other people". Is it wrong for a newbie to ask just one question? I had only started handling such work three weeks ago!!!  I realized my manager is pretty impatient so I've got to tread carefully next time. Afterwards, I made another mistake and he got frustrated again. It wasn't entirely my fault, just a small miscommunication and he has to appear so FRUSTRATED? Feels like he is entitled to feel frustrated but I don't think he has the entitlement. Sighhh... When I learn everything and stop making mistakes, maybe it's time to leave.

2. Shoes I bought today at the Charles and Keith warehouse sale.

Nice?

After work, I headed to Taiseng, which is where the Charles and Keith warehouse is located. I met up with Fang and Debra and we managed to get in after queuing for awhile. I've always been picky with shoes but I guess I was more accommodating today as the prices were relatively cheaper! These two pairs set me back $47, which is pretty reasonable. Oli and Huijing joined us later and we headed to the nearby Breadtalk HQ for dinner. 

3. The birthday cake my parents bought

Tomorrow is my birthday! Nothing special, probably cause I am 23 this year. One of my impossible wishes is for me to wind back time. To go back to the time when I was perhaps 14, still a teenager. I still feel like the 14 year old girl I was, but my exterior has already changed so much. I became fatter, dyed my hair, changed my tastes... I really miss the world I had when I was 14. I only had to juggle between studies and CCA and wasted my time hanging out in school or at the mall. Back then, I felt like I had all the time in the world to waste. Nowadays, any free time I have feels so precious, maybe cause work takes up so much of my time. As I become older, the perception of "time" to me has changed from a commodity to a luxury good.

I am looking forward to the time when "time" will become a commodity again. But who knows when that will be?

Sighhh... Talking about all these makes me feel so emotional.
