21/365 Grateful

I tweeted this on Tuesday...

Totally overestimated myself, as I thought I could complete my work within 1 day. I ended up with no Kate Spade bag and massage, but 3 full days of report! :(

And today, I'm finally done! :D Omg best feeling ever, Imma do the booty dance!!!

Since I disappointed myself, I "punished" myself with a new habit.

I want myself to keep track on my schedule regularly. I want to be able to submit work before deadlines and not to cram for it last minute. So I forced myself to start writing on a planner. That also means my Starbucks planner is finally in use! My goal next month is to finish work earlier than scheduled time, and to of course improve in my performance! As quoted from my boss, we should always under promised but over delivered.

OHHMYYGAWWWD BURGER! Burger has got to be my favourite unhealthy food! Since it's a bad food, so most of the time I refrain myself from eating burger. It sure was good having a burger after a LONG time! 

Burger in the picture is from Burgertory and is a self-customised pork burger. It's advisable to order their pork burgers instead of beef. :P

There's still work left to be done, so I stayed in the office till 8pm. Mum called asking whether am I coming home for dinner, I said yes and asked her to put the dishes on a plate for me, so she could clean the dining table.

And I came home to find this Hello Kitty on the dining table! LOL! My mum is too cute! <3

I thought I wouldn't get to gamble this year since I didn't do any visiting this CNY. Although CNY had over, but someone spontaneously suggested to gather at Piau's place to gamble! I had so much fun gambling with the gang despite losing money (as usual, never had lucks in gambling). And this is Piau (in the picture), our dealer who won ALL our money. Hahaha all good ;)

Day 17 of 365 Grateful

I LOVE karaoke! I am the type of person in the karaoke who would occupy the mic most of the time hahaha! My Saturday was well-spent with this bunch of awesome friends! ;) 

Day 16 of 365 Grateful

Both Chap Goh Mei & Valentine's Day fell on the same day, which also signifies both Chinese and Western Valentine's Day on the same day. 

Had dinner with my family to end the CNY. I love and appreciate special days, because that's when all of us come together for dinner, since all of us are always busy with our own schedules. 

Day 15 of 365 Grateful

It rained yesterday and today, like finally! 

The weather has been insanely hot for the past weeks. I've always been good with just the fan to sleep, but couldn't help but to switch on the air-cond since few nights back. Glad that it rained, the after-rain weather sure was good! :D

Day 14 of 365 Grateful

This makes you really, really happy. 

To share with you, this video of a little girl named Kayden experiencing her first time in the rain has gone viral for the past few days in social media. I watched it today and it warms my heart completely. I hope this video brightened your day, it definitely brightened mine! Her genuine and joyous reactions were just priceless. So if there is one thing you learnt from this precious little girl, is that even in a rainstorm you can always find happiness. People often only emphasise on the downs of their life, and are always lack of the appreciation in beautiful things that happened to them. To me, this quote has been an inspiration to me - Everyday may not be good, but there's always something good in everyday. It all depends on the way you view things. Somehow things are not as bad as it may seem if you look at it differently. :) 

Back to the title..

Dedicating today's gratitude to Bibimbap! I love bibimbap and had it for lunch today. I have been craving for it some time already since I didn't get to try any during my trip to Korea last week. Glad that the colleagues didn't mind going to the same place for lunch again since they went there two days back when I wasn't around. Happy tum makes a happy me! :)

Hi!

How bad I skipped 365grateful series for close to a month now, nothing to be proud of. =X Habits are like this, once you stopped, it really takes extra effort to be back on that routine again. Soooooo..keep up your good habits!

And, start eliminating the bad ones! At least TRY to, even simple bad habits, if you realised. For instance, not replying messages, especially the last seen and double-tick features on Whatsapp make it a lot worse. If you're not gonna reply someone's message, it wouldn't hurt to just tell them you're busy. That's why I always appreciate conversation that starts with hello and ends with bye. Which also means I dislike the fact that people would just hang up the phone without saying Bye! I'd call you again and make sure you said bye to me! It is jusssssttt a BYE. This bothers me too - not holding doors for the people after you. Simple courtesy, guys!

Okay stop looking at the negative side, the bright side is..I'm gonna resume 365grateful! ;) I still prefer 365grateful over 100happydays, simply because showing gratitude makes you happier. It is not happy people who are grateful, it is grateful people who are happy. :)

My haul from Korea! I didn't realise it was THIS much until I finally unpack today! I'm starting to love Korean cosmetics and so far those I've started using have been serving me well. 

Most of them are from Innisfree, which is my favourite Korean brand so far. Innisfree uses natural ingredients from Jeju Island and emphasises on eco-friendly packaging. When it comes to make-up, I'll usually pick the mineral lines because I have very sensitive skin. And, Innisfree has it covered for me! I'm a happy Innisfree customer. ;D

A Korean haul post perhaps? Hopefully. 

Goodnight my dears! :)
