Letter from self:

Dear self

That was awesome. Right after you said that you wouldn’t take Chinese tea for dinner anymore you go ahead and do so. Then you end up not sleeping the entire night. 3 hours’ sleep does not a night make. If you manage to land that job I’ll be quite surprised. You also decided to go and drink NESCAFE to help you sleep. ( Read more... )

I have learnt:

• My own worst enemy is myself.
  There is really nothing else to be said but that. All the mistakes that I’ve made over the past few days were my own, and I know I can do better. Giving up is not in my nature. It’s seeped in, yes, but I’ll be damned if I allow myself to give up. The whining stops now. It’s time to KATN!

April is…

Shaping up to be a good month.

The month I started writing for fun. Again.

The month a certain pairing/fandom has taken over my life. Believe it or not, this is mentally healthy for me.

Car repairs month, hence another broke month.

The month I take a breather and get back into shape. In every possible way.

Where my Script Frenzy has ( Read more... )

Tech update this week:

Office 2010 on Windows 7
Seriously beautiful piece of work. It’s not nearly enough to get me to buy Office 2010 when it comes out, but for now the free beta is awesome enough that I want to keep using it.

Now, to figure out how to set all my Buzzes to private by default.

Sansa is now Mort

Dear self

Admit to yourself that your writing sucks. I don’t know how we went down this road, but stop trying to be lofty. Your words are beginning to confuse even me. We have a goal. We have a destination. We know we’re going to take detours. There’s no need for the kitchen sink. Your thoughts can be distilled. Let’s do that.

If it makes you feel ( Read more... )

Random observations about life:

1. Current eyeshadow that Mom gave me will set better after wiping them with wet tissues. Odd but true. Ok, it turns out that most makeup will set with water.

2. Got my certs yesterday. Now wondering what to do.

3. Clients will always try to make you cry. And stay overnight. And work you like dogs. But there are ( Read more... )

The best friends:

1. Are those who enjoy your company for the sake of your company, and who accept you for being who you are.

2. Are those you can call up at 3am in the morning on the other side of the world to listen to them/you rant about what’s happening in your life.

3. Are not afraid to tell you when you’re being silly.

4. Are ones who ( Read more... )

You know the company you’re in loves games when even those who don’t own a DS and isn’t quite into the gaming scene can identify a Cooking Mama game based on just the description and without any of the words usually associated with it.

Am testing out the new Nuffnang XChange widget, which isn’t really a widget per say but more like a floating ( Read more... )

A few drops of hydrogen peroxide on dried blood creates foam on fabric. Completely harmless.

Blood serum is yellow and floats to the top. Huh.

Different folds, different results.

I never knew a Ladycup could bounce!

Also, must be careful when doing situps next time.

Menstruation is a pretty normal part of life. Why does everyone treat it as ( Read more... )
