Happy New Year and still single

Here I am, again. After such a long idle. Well, basically I have been very busy with my own stuff and things. Even during my ample time, I prefer to be getting lazy and wallowed.

Here's the thing. The thing I wanna talk about which is my life, "being single".

My life here in Kota Kinabalu is very simple. I live away from my family, initially my hometown, Sandakan. I do have friends here and most of them are married. Those who are still single do not really spend time mingle being single with me. They also have plans with their usual co-partner.

Me? Always alone on weekends. Doing my own stuff and getting things like housechores done as planned. Sometimes not done at all. Well, sometimes my bro would call me to hangout with my nephew and s-i-l but it's not like every week. My other friends do not really always ask me out either. On certain occassions, yes they would. But I'm talking about the regular weekends.

All I do is this and that. Watching Netflix like there's no other days. Currently I'm catching up my favourite series back when I was in form 1, initally 13. I remember watching it on TV3 every Sunday night. Well I was pretty lucky that time because I was on evening session for school. A lot of other series that I like to catch back like Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Clarissa, which both acted by Melissa Joan Hart; Dawson's Creek, Lizzie McGuire,  Popular and Roswell. I think I have a long list to list down, but these are the main ones.

Sometimes I think about until when will I stay like this? A lot of my friends have settled down and have kids of their own. Some have more than 3 kids now. Ha ha! I am fine with this. It's just a matter of fact that I also want to build my own family someday. I just don't know when will that be.

I go back to my hometown once in a month due to money saving and ticket prices are not that cheap though. So I got like at least 3 weekends that I need to always think of surviving the whole "being single" idea. I can't make plans, because sometimes it doesn't work. Unless there's impromptu plans by friends, I always say "yes" to them. Such a pathetic sound but it's the truth. I hardly decline any offers.

Luckily the workplace thing is a good thing. At least I have a very nice working environment and a bunch of good people to work along with. My colleagues are the best I could ever ask for. The fact that I am seeing them everyday makes me feel no pressure to work in KK. I know at times, I miss being with my whole family, but I gotta work my ass off to get money and settle my monthly commitments as well as to have my own things I wanna have.

I certainly love being where I am and what I'm doing. It's just being single is always said as sad by some people. Do they even know what these single people are doing and what they are going through? Especially when you're away from family. It's not easy but I gotta cope up with it.

Maybe I should just revamp my whole tuition opening plan like 4 years ago. Trust me, I got traumatized from that whole catastrophic plan I had been. I know I must make a move and restart. But all I know for now is I'm gonna stay where I am now. Maybe I will reopen when I get married? A lot easier I guess.

One more thing. It's good to be single. Apart from thinking about work, I know I need to unwind sometime. And now I feel the need to especially for my next birthday. I have worked a lot these years, I think it's better to make some kind of personal reward or treat. 2019, please be nice!

Happy New Year!

Desa Dairy Farm and The Magnificent Mount Kinabalu

I should have chosen the best photo, but the internet speed won't allow me at the moment. My friend, Jue The gelato ice cream I'm a nature lover. I love watching sunset, sunrise, mountains, oceans and beaches. Not to forget that I love greens. In short, anything to do with nature, I'm a full supporter. As a civilian who works from Mondays through Fridays, having a Public Holiday on Friday means the world to me. It is like having such a long weekend! Here's the story. It was an unplanned trip with my Sarawakian friend who currently works in Kota Kinabalu. She is Jue, who planned all this. At first, she just asked me if whether I'm free on that particular weekend. I said, I'm free and there you go. For any plans she planned, I simply said yes to her. It was on 31st March 2018 (Saturday) that Jue and her two other colleagues brought me for a road trip stretching from Kundasang to Kudat for the whole weekend. I can't recall for how ma...

Hello 2022

 Alhamdulillah for everything... Today is 28th of February 2022 and I just wanna say thank you Allah for all the blessings you have bestowed me. I know it's the last day of February and I think it's still not too late for me to wish everybody a Happy New Year 2022! haha Whoaa... it's amazing to know it's already 2022, guys. Can you believe it? A lot of things happened in 2021 that I just didn't have that much time to update my blog.  The worst part for last year was the passing of my beloved grandfather whom passed away on 15th January 2021. I know I should have written about him like how I wrote for my granny in 2019. But the memory was too much and I was truly in sorry for quite a few months after his passing. It took me a while to get back up and continue living. It was really the most sad day ever in my whole life. I witnessed his last breath and the moment he said the 'syahadah' was the most tear-jerking moment I ever saw. I just could not believe it ha...

Truth hurts

The truth never lies, though it always hurts.  I knew the fact that should have gotten rid of it since last year, but I don't know for some reasons, this year I can't handle it. It is something about my feeling that I rarely felt. This time around, I might have fallen for the wrong person. I didn’t want this to happen, but I couldn’t help it. Till next post, bye!
