Work versus life

Feb hasn't been a good month for me especially at work. Recently, I have been tied up and frustrated over things at work.. things just go wrong as it please. I'm am now given an opportunity to shine , to show my potential. On other hand, the demands from the top is way too much for me to bear. Having 3 bosses asking you to do deliver different projects within the same time period is no joke. With all the meetings I am expecting for this month cum expectations, I'm unsure if this is really what I want.

I haven't been courageous enough for my past 25 years... will this year be exceptional? I'm very thankful to always have Raymond around me to show me utmost support in what I do , so long as I'm happy. Can't be more blessed having to hear him say that... sadly, the issue doesn't lies with him.
Sometimes, I really wish I have my own house right now. Only then, I can choose to do the things I want in peace.

Right now, I only pray for miracles and good luck in the days to come. I can't take it any more blow from work right now.. and how I wish I can shut my ears off from everyone. I ain't no superwoman. All I ask is to go to work from 8- 5.30, come home and eat dinner with my family or spend some time with dear. I do not need to climb the corporate ladder. I may used to be ambitious, but now... I rather have a happy life because I only live once.

My trip to New Zealand

2013 beings with an exciting trip for me.. heading to New Zealand for our long awaited holiday and pre-wedding shoots makes me so happy!!
Now that i'm back, I still miss New Zealand so much.

I'm not a very adventurous person given the fact that if you go to the theme park with me, I will only take rides which are safe and slow. New Zealand brings out the courageous side of me.. especially the guts to do sky diving was something I never thought of.

 Waiting at Changi Airport to board the plance

 Our first night accommodation in Auckland

 Waiting for black water rafting so we decided to cam-whore

 Lady Gnox is erupting behind the scene

 Fox Glacier 

 Farm visit and see the bundle of sheep skin!

 Look at how the wind has transformed my hair hahahah

One of my favourite spot in NZ, so calm and tranquil.

 The 7m waterfall...

 Black water rafting...

 Clearwater Pepper house.. one of the best hotel I stay in NZ!

Beautiful sunset with nice melody.. this must be the best sunset I have seen

The most memorable activity of the trip - 15,000 ft sky diving!

I can't share how wonderful New Zealand is... it's a country with high standard of living yet not as stressful as Singapore city. No wonder everyone plans to retire there...

We met a young couple from Hong Kong who have been staying there for 3 years.. working as a retail sales, he is very happy.. there is no overtime, extra day of leave for every working day on a public holiday. Having to accumulate up to 2 months of leave in a year.. makes me wonder why am I working so hard in Singapore?

I could have move there, lead a simpler life... and be happier. But when am I still stuck in Singapore?

Is it worth to stay long term in Singapore given that we are leading such a stressful life to seek for fortune so that we can live better, be able to meet expectations of parents and to ensure an above average life in future.

The salary we earn will ultimately goes back to wedding, housing, car, daily needs.. is there any more extra $ to have kids and to give them a decent life? We are fighting for a living as each day passes..  Is this worth it?

This is a calling for the government to do something for the people here.. imagine having 50% of the population is made of foreigners? What is the meaning of staying here?
