Holiday?

Who does not want a holiday? We all work hard and of course we want to reward ourselves by taking a break, going away somewhere.

Do you know that not everyone take leave for their own pleasure? How many people out there actually need to sacrifice their leave for the family? Whether it is for taking care of a sick child or helping out with aged parents.

I have never gotten an offer from my own siblings to relieve our mother and myself from taking care of our dad and doing all the household chores. I only got offer to accompany someone to her holiday which I cannot go obviously.

It’s been a very tough time for me, now that we have to be without a maid. My bf gets to travel for work and I cannot go along even if I am able to pay for my own share. I am not asking him to pay but can he just try to find out more from the organizers.

I want to go away too you know? I am like the only child, don’t you think so? Since I am doing this alone most of the time. But I do not have all the privilege and love showered on the only child since young since I have 2 other siblings who are also grown adults and earning much more than me.

5 good things today

Can I list down 5 good things that happen in my life today? 5 is so little!

Well, if I can name 5 today, perhaps I can name more in the days to come. Just trying to look at the positive things instead of the negative ones. I have a long list of negative things in my life; things I cannot get rid of in my life due to responsibilities and survival.

The list is on-going. I hope to achieve what I set out to do by the end of the day.

Here’s the list for today:

1. The screen did not fail on me the moment I walk into the office lobby.

2. There was no nasty email when I switch on my computer at work.

3. Traffic was clear after work. No jam in the car park.

4. Finished 2 designs for the website I have dreaded to work on. The design turned out good.

5. Had a good time watching tv with bf. At least he did not fall asleep on the sofa. Sofa is too comfy according to him.

There you go, the 5 good things which happened to me today.
