Introvert.. maybe not : Ambivert

Thought that I had a quiet birthday.. and just quietly start my work as usual today. But expect the unexpected..

 

 

Thank you for the time and effort despite the busyness 💝. It’s good to slow down and enjoy each other’s company.

Si Yin and Yang

panas ke hujan?

 

Interesting situation at my balcony - one side hot and sunny, one side gloomy. 

I come across few impactful keywords. Maybe i should start a list

1. No One Owes You Anything vice versa I don't owe anyone explanation
   
   
2. If It Is To Be, It's Up To Me = I'm the source of creation
   
   
3. Self-Full vs Self-Sufficient vs Self-Efficacy
   
   
4. Hold Space means Care
   
   
5. Add Value means Meaningful Contribution
   
   
6. Solitude not Loneliness 
   
   
7.  I'm a Fighter not a Victim
   
   
8.  Set Boundaries to protect my time, attention, energy and space
   
   

Quiet birthday this year. Not traveling and staying home. IC pun hilang.. belum buat baru. Waiting for miracle to happen. Kot ada insan budiman yang jumpa pulang kan 😅

Treat myself with a spa.. 

Semoga sentiasa menjadi yang lebih baik.

Meraikan Kelahiran @Maldives

I have been to Maldives few times in Oct but never on my birth date. This year, i decided to revisit Kandooma after 11 years (in 2011). 

It was my first time setting up my eyes in this beautiful country. Since then, i have been to Maldives yearly except 2015, 2020 and 2021. This is my first overseas trip after the border reopen due to covid-19. 

It was the resort effort to prepare all the surprises. No body plan it. I went for snorkeling trip in the morning, then kayak and snnorkle again in front of the room (i saw lion fish hiding between the rock).

Entered the room and wallaaa.. the bed was nicely prepared with birthday wishes. After resting, walk around the resort area twice and drop by the restaurant. 

As my friend contemplating what to eat, the staff said they actually already prepared nice table for us and to my surprise a birthday cake with the staff singing birthday song to celebrate.

 Hmmm nice kan. ❤

3Puluh Sepuluh 7belas

I decided to spent my birthday quietly and out from the radar.

Nothing special.

Like today is insignificant.

Like today is average.

Like today is just another day.

I got special made ecard from team. sweeeeet.

Another Birthday

           Being hopeful as much as I can 😀
              Happy Birthday Octoberian!

Happy Birthday Sue!

Hello

 

Nobody wish me Happy Birthday in person yesterday because nobody knew. I kept it to myself. I had a farewell lunch with the team and then dinner with my friend's parent and ended my birthday by sleeping on the couch.

 

Hello

 

I have new place to call home, new office to work, new friend to say hi and new food to taste. The bed still wakes me up everyday at 5am no matter how late I slept. I can see the beach from my window and the air just feel cleaner. Be kind to me Penang.

 

Hello

 

My post become lesser. Once a month now. I hope you don't just disappeared BlogSpot. I have been writing to you since 2006, we are almost reaching to year ten. How times flies kan.

 

Hello

 

Dear Work. Can you be easy on me please. Can we have our mutual understanding on this. You can have all of me five days a week and let me free on those two days :D Thank you for your kind understanding.

 

Hello...

You

Count my Blessings

not my wrinkles :)

Conversation with my doctor earlier today (I have been loyal to him more than 4 years, I think)

Me: I keep on getting the same cough, over and over again. Like before. Should I be worried? 

Doctor: No fever, no headache or body pain?

Me: No. Just cough and flu and my lungs hurt  since I cough very loud.

Doctor: (After checking my temperature and breathing). Your record is good actually. 

Me: Good?

Doctor: This year you only visit me four time. In Jan for food poisoning,  in May for umrah vaccination,  July for coughing and now for the same reason. So you only sick twice a year. U score A.

Me: Really? Hmmm.. Contemplating the input

Doctor: Last year, you see me twice for the same reason. So you are good. No worries. 

Me: Ok laaa.

Doctor: So i will prescribe you with antibiotics, high dose of cough syrup to be taken at night only and medication for your lungs.

Me: Ok laaa

There's goes my RM 56.00 :)

Thinking back, yeah right. Last year and this year I didn't take any mc. Alhamdulillah.  Syukur. Di beri kesihatan yang terbaik terutama ketika menunaikan umrah. (Despite me being lazy - no excesice, no restrictions on food, not enough sleep, not enough of plain water, stress, no supplement no multi vitamin).

So today, before my birthday end.. and before the cough syrup starts showing its drowsiness effect, I just want to be GRATEFUL for everything in my life, the good and the bad and the in between.

And my hope for all of you,

Me, Giving Back

Having my hot banana choc roll in Sunway Campus.

Berdebar-debar. Serious. I still can run away though. The medical assistant insisted me to have a bite before going through the process. Oh well. No turning back i guess.

Will update with the result :)

Update:

I did it.  Yeay! I guess my heart is brave enough to take it. I'm glad i did it. I do hope one pint of my O positive blood do make a difference to those who receive it. Its my birthday gift to you :-)

Out of nowhere, while driving back from office, i have been talking to myself. What significant thing i can do today on my birthday? Suddenly the thought of blood donation seems do-able. I stopped my car at the roadside and start google. Make a quick call to Pusat Darah Negara to confirmed their nearest campaign for today. I guess it has meant to be for me to make a donation. Without hesitation, make a u-turn and make my way to Sunway University. Its raining and almost near to their closing time. But i take the risk.

I do recommend all of you to at least donate once. You have nothing to loose. Please bring along your ic, make sure your body weight more than 45kg, eat some light food and for female, you must not on your off days ya :-)

You need to fill up and sign a form. (They asked you few questions related to your health history and others). They took few drops of your blood to identify blood type and to do some checking. Once you are registered, they gave you a small red log book. Then you are ready!

I did felt a bit of pain but i guess its nothing compared to my headache. You just need to lay down and relax. My blood fill up the plastic container quite fast. I don't feel any side effect after that, but a bit of pain dan rasa lenguh kat tangan - which i think is normal.

I wish i can go back home now and sleeeeeeeep. Hehehe
