Fate fell short this time, smile fades in the summer

Fate fell short this summer -

I wholeheartedly looked forward to my first 9-6 pre-adulthood quest, but the tables turned on me. I've officially faced my first adult woe of not being entirely agreeable with the most authoritative being in the office, which unfortunately also happened to be my direct head... I think it's also one of the rarer occasions in my life where painful static sparks would fly while rubbing shoulders with another being. I don't usually let it happen, and it's an awful feeling. Then again, this has taught me a whole deal on my patience threshold. (Nts: Should probably start some yoga lol)

And I've learnt a lot about walls this summer. I once knew someone who was always so open to trust anyone - something uncommon in this society. I thought that social walls were always there to start with, then it starts crumbling down as you get to know someone more. He said, "It's different for me. I don't have walls to start with. I let people come to me, then I start building them up over time if things don't go well." Curious, I thought. A few years down, I realised that I was the same. A lot of shit has happened over the past few months. Things are a tad more complicated now (not that it never was), and I'm sorry things had to happen this way.

Not my best summer, but Singapore will always have my best human beings :')



My babies, my popo, my fam.

My colleagues. To Kahina, my French daredevil. To Cyndi, my admirable young professional. To Ian, the one who knows everything. To Jiawei, the cock-talker. To auntie, the motherly janitor.



And a lot of girl fun :-)
