Way #120 How I Destress: Walk around aimlessly (Well, not really...)
Have been really busy like almost every single day. I think I am practically working everyday from Monday to Sunday, though Saturday's just the morning part that I'm usually occupied for tuition.
However busy I seem, I like the flexibility of my job. At least I'm doing work mostly at home, and meeting clients on other times. I don't really like the travelling part though, having to go to different remote areas or industrial parks of Singapore to meet my clients in their offices. Then again, I guess it is good training for me, and I get to know more new routes around Singapore!
Just today, I was supposed to have two appointments. However, one of the clients postponed the appointment. So guess what? I end up doing some eating and shopping at IMM and Jurong Point. Hahaha. Well, not really shopping. But just going to the usual places I always go - Gramophone and Harris. Lunch - what else? Subway of course! Convenient and healthy. Ha!
Oh ya, by the way, I am not a fan of junk food. In case you need to know about me. Occasional Mac or Long John's definitely ok. (Ok, I kinda like Long John's.. Oops!)
Yeah, I guess I am really an advocate of eating healthily, though I am not a fervent health-food eater. But as much as possible, I go for food less oily, less spicy, yet more nutritious! Haha. For example, I like eating at Soup Spoon's. Love the soups there. So yummy. And no, I am not a fan of potato chips and junk snacks, although I might just grab some when I see my sisters eating. The thing is, I almost never buy potato chips.
So just yesterday, I was shopping at NTUC extra. Haha. Shopping! OKIE~~~! Yep. I love shopping for food. I bought wholemeal bread, peanut butter, plain yoghurt, some multi-grain cereal with raisins, Meiji strawberry and chocolate milk, mayo tuna snack with crackers, etc.
Do you notice something common in the food items I bought? They are definitely healthier food choices. HAHAHA. =D
So yeah, back to what I did today. Went looking around some laptops at Best Denki @ IMM and Harvey Norman @ Jurong Point. Argh. A HP laptop I wanted to buy at Harvey Norman got sold out already. Well, but never mind, I saw another ASUS laptop at half the price. And I think it is a reasonably good and well-designed laptop. Definitely portable, lighter, and almost half the price of the previous one I eyed for! $798!
Think I should seriously get a laptop soon. Really need it quite desperately for my work. And I kinda like the idea of carrying my laptop around when I am out, chilling out at some cafe, checking out some work stuff and whatever, sipping on that lovely tea latte or something. Haha. My sister commented that I could possibly be the only one around who has not got a laptop at my age. Lol. But honestly, I did not see any use for it previously what. I was pretty contented having a decent 22 inch desktop. Heh. But now, boh bian la. Have to buy! ><
So after browsing around, I went to Harris and think I spent a good one hour or so looking at books. And it was having a 20% discount for minimum 2 books' purchase. I ended up buying a Men's Health magazine and two other novels. Both by authors that I like. Chuck Palahniuk's - Pygmy and Christopher Moore - Fool.
Did I mention that I have been in the reading mood lately? Haha. Been actively checking on book reviews on http://www.goodreads.com
So yeah, no matter how busy I am, I would definitely want to find some time to do what I want, be it just walking around aimlessly. Sometimes, it can be some sort of relaxation!
After that, headed to school.
Ok. More appointments await tomorrow.
