Defrost

Time off today!!! I asked my team leader to give me an extra rest day using a bunch of crappy reasons. But since he was a guy, I made sure I looked really nice so he wouldn't say no hahaha. Girl power! Ok, that sounded really lame.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I maximized this day. I woke up at 11:30 am-ish, ate, and cleaned up a bit around the house. Then I decided to clean the 2nd floor ref shared by Dax, me and Chay. Well, it's about time. The freezer part was occupied by mostly ice and some frozen leftover meat which were starting to look like fossils. It felt very rewarding after, I threw all the weird smelling, fungus culture that was spoiled food, and the stuff look organized and neat :P. And for some reason, all that cleaning made me want to de-clutter my life via blogging, so here I am, writing again after a few months of absence.



I've been thinking about my future lately (wow, is this really me???). Nothing too concrete though, just a rough timeline of wishful plans.

First off, I need to do some serious saving. I've accepted the fact that I'll be staying here for a while, since the pay is good, life is cheap, and I'm too lazy to look for a job anywhere else. I need at least 2 years to be able to save up enough and pay off the car at the same time.


Then maybe I'll stay for another 2-3 months. The moolah that I'll get from these extra months, I'll allot to travel and leisure, first stop is to my beloved sister in NZ of course. Then I'll retire from SAP!!! Hahaha!!! After resigning, I'll do a bit of soul (and soulmate) searching, finding work that's really in the line with my passion and skills. These are some of the things that come to mind:

1.) Advertising
2.) Environmental Engineering
3.) Fashion-related work
4.) Architecture
5.) Make up artist
6.) Photographer
7.) Event planner

Hopefully, while I'm thinking of these things, I've invested on some business so that I'll also have a passive income. And there won't come a time when I'll need to sell my soul once I've used up all my hard-earned(?) money.

These are the only things I can think of for now. Told ya it's rough hahaha. Nevertheless, I'll pray as hard as I can for this. Lord help me...
