Well, the reason for this post is simple: To remind myself to rebuild my habit of writing and thinking about things that happened within me and around me.
I had lost the habit of writing regularly. It might be because I had been losing focus and sight of what I had planned out to do. It may be because I had chuck this in some hidden corner of my brain. I had not conscious awareness on writing a post for the blog until now. It is scary when I had told myself to write often just a couple of months ago.
It will be Monday tomorrow. Yes, the start of the work week. There is nothing I will complain about. However, there are things which I had to prepare to ensure my work goes smoothly for the upcoming events and meetings. I need to improve my organisational skills. There are a number of things on my lists of things to improve. I will probably do up that thing soon and post it here to remind myself. So, are you looking forward to your work week? (Probably not right) I had just finished reading an article about how 90% of the people do not like the work their do, and the environment they are in. There are many reasons stated by different groups of individuals. Some believe that passion can be build and develop over time, others believe that it is impossible for individuals to be happy with a job they do not enjoy doing. Well, for me, I think that a job which provide a learning environment where I can learn, experience, make mistakes and improve myself. It is definitely a place I will enjoy working. However, there are also other factors like location, pay, salary, working hours and other benefits. It all depends on one's preferences and balancing out the pros and cons. Isn't this sound so complicated that you wish you can just use your gut feeling and make the choice? (That was what I did, and I did not regret my choice.)
It seems like there are several political issues that are of concern in my neighbourhood. One is the upcoming election in my country. It will be the first time I cast my votes. As an economic graduate, I guess I should gain sufficient information for me to make an informed decision. However, I realise that gaining this information is not easy. I am not sure about the biases behind every article and I did not witness the full speech each candidates are giving. All in all, I do not feel that I have what it takes to make an informed decision. If I feel this way, what about others who are casting their votes? What is the deciding factor for them to come to a decision on the political party to support? How can they tell who is the better politician just based on rally and speeches? Well, I have no idea. There are a ton of questions in my head that I want to ask. However, there is no one for me to ask them. My mother probably vote the existing party as she still requires their help on certain issues she faced. Voting them and hoping that the issues will be resolved. She did the same in the past. I hope she gets her desired outcome. As for me, I pretty much do not have a clue. I have been going through the news and reading articles about the rallies, but I have no idea what is going on at all. Perhaps, I have no real connection to the issues that are being discussed. It does not relate to me closely. Well, we still have around 12 days to go. I will soon be able to find an answer...Right?
Swimming..It seems like people do not really like to swim these days. The swimming pools used to be a lot more crowded in the past (even though the population count was significantly lesser). I guess the interest of the majority had shifted. To? I have no idea but according to recent news article and some observations, I see increasing number of people who jogs and cycles. (Perhaps, there might be increasing number people who quits exercising due to the lack in time. This is something I can understand as I had been in such situation not long ago where the working hours I had just made it impossible for me to engage in exercising. I know it is just too tired to do so.) I feel pretty privileged now as my workplace is pretty close to a sport centre where I can go for some exercise after work. Swimming is the exercise I chose. It actively decrease your stress level and, of course, it helps to maintain your weight. It is beneficial for office worker like me who spend more than half a day sitting in the office. You should probably try it too.
Now, it is time to end this post as I should be prepared to go to bed. Hope you had enjoy this short weekend. Tomorrow will be a good day for of us. With a positive attitude, everyday can be a good day.
