If you're out there, come back.
Sometimes when I'm bored I tend to look back at my blog archives and re-read my old journal entries.. I don't know, it just gives me something to do and in a way reminds me how I used to be or still am.. Also, that's why I sometimes like to link back my current entries to previous ones if they are somehow related :-)
Anyways, I decided to go back to this time two years ago, when I was on my longgg semester break after completing my first year in Uni.
Back then, I decided not to take on a part time job and was free to do the things I enjoyed.. We didn't have a helper during that time, so I helped out in the kitchen a lot, cooking and doing the dishes.. We had just moved into the new house and the kitchen was equipped with new appliances and stuff.. We had a nice, new shiny oven and that was when I discovered my interest for baking cupcakes! Hahah :-P
Besides cooking, I kept myself busy creating new jewellery pieces and also greeting cards..
"Me and Sha can't wait to start running our own business! And doing this lil project together is already giving us lotsa ideas for designing the menu, signage and everything!
I havent really narrowed down what kinda business i want to run, coz everything sounds like so much fun!
A boutique, cafe, greeting card shop and jewellery shop all in one? Is that too much too handle? Is it even possible?? heheh with all this free time on my hands, i just cant stop thinking bout my future plans!
And it sucks that i havta wait two more years to finish my degree, and probably another year to do my masters in retail design.. Fast forward pleeease! ;-P"

Back then, I couldn't wait to graduate, not coz I was tired with the amount of workload and stress but coz I had sooo many future plans for myself! Running my own business and all that jazz.. I was so pumped up about it, I think that's all me and Sha talked about at that point of time..
Fast forward to two years later, and here I am all done with my degree but nowhere near doing what I dream of doing. I'm hardly even doing all the things I enjoyed so much, like experimenting new recipes, designing jewellery, making cards, scrapbooking... *sigh*
Talks about running our own business have quieted down too.
It's been two months since I ended Uni, but I still feel pretty exhausted and haven't fully recovered from it.. Now my days are spent in bed or out and about eating, eating, and doing a bit of shopping. The passion is somewhere in me I think, but it's not as strong as how it used to be. I don't know what happened to the Zizi two years ago who was so enthusiastic about her future plans.....
Help me find her pls?
