Poor blog, been abandoned for such a long time... :/
Well, it has been pretty hectic lately even though sometimes I seriously have no idea what I have been doing.. time goes by just like that.. Sighh...
Anyway, it is year 2017 now!!! And it is end of February already! How fast huh.. Felt like new year eve was just last night wtf!
Year after year, the worries I always have with me are my parents and another one better left untold. Well, my mum isn't young anymore, she's turning 68 this year! I guess I've said this many times but I will say it again... that I am really afraid of losing them T_T Feel like tearing just by typing this right now wtff...
What's even more sad was when this one day when I had a conversation with mum, and she said this "I never dreamt of visiting/ travelling to western countries ("European" countries as what she always refer to all western countries lol) because I know we cannot afford it". Ouch... Immediately I felt so sad... so so sad...because I put myself in their position, knowing that in the limited lifetime that you have right now, you can never travel to those places T_T Not only that, after I got back from the Europe trip, I told mum that I will bring them to Spain in year 2026 (when the Sangrada Familia would've been completed by then)... to which she jokingly replied "waa 9 more years, don't know if I can live that long or not". :'(
It is just depressing to know that you can never fulfill their dreams... but of course, I know very well that my parents are very simple people. They've never requested extraordinary things from me before. When I brought them to Taiwan last year, they were so satisfied and happier than I could ever imagine... to the extent that my dad loves it so much he said he wanted to migrate there lol. They are that simple and that's what make me so proud of them!
Nevertheless, I vow that in the near future, while they are still strong, I will do whatever possible to bring them on more trips! Be it just within Malaysia or other asian countries, I will do it... I guess this is the least I could do for them...

On my part, since none of my siblings can help me financially, I am gonna do whatever I can think of to earn extra income... so some of the things I could think of are:
> Doing Uber and GrabCar. Actually I've registered to be a driver since October last year (LOL) but so far, I've not submitted the documents which they requested from me over and over again -__- Procrastination punya pasal zzz...
> I am not a skillful person so there's actually really nothing much I can do in life and that is so sad hahaha! But one thing I'm good at is that I know that I am physically strong... so yours truly will train hard and join as many runs as possible to try to achieve the top spots to win the prize money! LOL! Heyyy I was almooostt there okay! Closest I got to was achieving the 11th position!! I will try harder! Ok don't laugh.
> The next one is not on earning extra income but rather on restricting myself on spending on unnecessary things.. well this is simple right, self-control on spending = excess income = higher savings!
> Work harder at work like duhh... I'm not sure if the equation for this works or not but if it does, work hard = seem to work hard = appreciated = higher bonus!
> Take up accounting work and do it at home to earn extra income.. so if you have friends or anyone you know looking for someone to do their accounts, please contact Ms. Trina via her email (trinataypf@gmail.com)
> Online business - been thinking about this for many years but no action has been taken before. So maybe I should really start taking this seriously!
Well, that's all I can think of for now. Time to be positive and work hard!
Ciao!
