By a heartbreaking coincidence, that very same week, I lost my beloved baby of 26 years . Just a week later, while still deep in grief, I decided to make the trip. Being just a short bus ride from my house in Yishun, it felt close enough to reach out and a touch of familiar comfort. But stepping inside brought a flood of conflicting emotions.

New Beginning

27 February 2020

More than a month ago when I got down to write out my feelings about job interviews.

Either way, I'm happy.
At least they never really ask in details about that annoying question.

3rd week on the job. Still surviving. Just need time to adapt.

Till then...
