the only time where i get to really sit down and blog is probably over the weekend. i know my sporadic random blogging pattern is causing most of my regular readers to satisfy their bimbotic blog reads elsewhere. but, what to do. at least i got like 5 people still reading this, so i guess its okay. sad.
anyway,
i want to talk about fear.
fear of the unknown.
i'm not talking about ghost or werewolves, oh taylor lautner *drools*. i'm talking about smthing more relatable. like fear of uncertainty. like simple stuff can cause fear. like for example, if you're invited to a birthday party and the dress theme is Moulin Rouge. then you decide not to follow the dress theme because you fear that if you did and when you reach there seeing that only you were gungho enough to dress up like a 1940's prostitute, then it would cause you major embarrassment.
well, you know, simple fears like this. fear that deters you. another example would be like lets say you go to a buffet and there's all this awesome food but then you dont dare to pig out because you're afraid people might look at you and think you're a glutton.
these are the kinds of fear that prevents you from being yourself, achieving your absolute best.
call it worry, anxiety or just fear of uncertainty. it's all the same thing.
now, i shall let you in on a little secret. before i started work, i had this little fear that work would suck really bad. that everyone would be so darn political and hate me. that i'd spent lunch eating sandwiches alone at my desk. and that my boss would be like miranda preisley from Devil Wears Prada.
just random fears of uncertainty. not knowing what the future holds. sometimes the only way to overcome such fears is just by going through it. you've got to kill the cow to make the burger.
sometimes it turns out for the better and sometimes not. you learn and you move on. luckily for me, everything's been going great so far. my colleagues are all awesome and i've got a bunch of friends that i can hang out with and lunch with. people who i can joke with, laugh with and who make my hours at work fly by.
check out these awesome pic's i took over the week.
me with audrey leong, who constantly likes to make fun of me and then laugh at me for no apparent reason. lol!
it was our merchandising manager's birthday so the whole department decided to have a damn yummy lunch at Aroy Thai.
the food was damn good la! and their thai milk tea was just pure awesome!
when we got back to the office, we surprised her with a yummy birthday cake.
and she generously treated us all to ice cream and Spinelli's!!! wootS!!!
that night, a bunch of decided to hang out after work at Loof. it's nice to just unwind after work over drinks and random chit chat.
