Birthday Yours truly...

Thirty Nine

Say what? How am I approaching my forties?! It’s crazy how time passes by so quickly. I am now a mum of a primary school going kid and I’m turning 40 soon?!

Where’s the pause button here? Not to be morbid but death is approaching quicker than we think. Aging is scary. Now I know why those emperors are so crazy in trying to find out how to live FOREVER.

As per our yearly tradition, it’s time to summarise my life in a post! How has turning 39 changed for me?

Work:

Boy did last year’s post did not age well. I joined Koobits and things did not work out well for this startup. So apparently their runway ran out of moolah (or was about to do so) so they had to make drastic cost reductions. For a math company, you would expect them to be able to make better sense of their budgeting no? But yeah, things did not work out and honestly the options given were not ideal and honestly does not seem right. But thankfully I found another opportunity so I did not try to play social justice warrior. Also, my role as a social media manager there became group buys manager. Cos we had to bring in $. Lots of red flags and luckily red is not my favourite colour.

I went back to the world of gaming after. To the land of Rito. It’s been years since Asiasoft and honestly I was excited to go back. The workload is insaneeeeee but we work hard and play hard there. Am enjoying the ride so far!

Family:

Relationship seems to be better. Funny how we get closer when we no longer live together. It’s at a constant good pace currently and we see them often. Still hoping to do a family shoot and trip!

Love:

Aidan started primary school and Davina is in K1! It’s challenging with Aidan currently but am trying our best to improve things.

Health:

Am at the biggest I have ever been. Have took a break from being active due to the new job and trying to adjust to it. So far still Covid free!

Friends:

No change here. Kept those who matter close and distanced myself from those who I felt were toxic.

Blogging: 

Haven’t been blogging much oops. Have moved to shortform content but I do hope to keep this blog alive once in a while!


Thanks to everyone and anyone who has wished me a very happy birthday. As mentioned every year: birthdays just symbolises another year closer to the grave (to me). So love like you have never loved before, eat like you have never eaten before, live life like every day is your last.
