Weekly Update from 19 March to 25 March 2018

I haven't been quite in my element in the first few weeks of March but I'm getting there as in, as much as possible, I try to steer back my life in the direction that I want to go. To be honest, all of us go through ups and downs in life. There will be times when we read or listen of stories of people who go through far worse than us and then we think about how lucky we are that our problems are basically just in our mind, like how I just emotional for nothing.

However, I just need to pull it together and go through life in as much positivity as possible. And then be happy and grateful for what I have and to celebrate little moments because as I learnt recently, tomorrow is never promised. We often put things on hold because we think a lot of time and that tomorrow is another day. But what if that tomorrow never comes. Even if it comes, are we going to be in the right state of mind and body to do what we wanted to do all this time.

So basically, we do not know what will happen to us or any of our loved ones tomorrow. This tomorrow doesn't just mean the day after today but days after as well. I admire those people who keep their dreams alive, working hard each single day and not giving up even with the road blocks because what matters more is the journey and not the destination. For instance, I am currently watching this blog by a You tuber who started doing make up tutorials when she started her channel, now she's a make up creator and then she is also pursuing her passion in acting. Even for a famous youtuber, she still needs to go for auditions and gets rejected often but she didn't let that dampen her spirits, like thinking, oh..maybe I should just stick to doing makeup tutorials and producing make up after make up products.  

Then one time she got a role and then the acting offers kept coming in and she had to travel back and forth between US and UK in which the latter is where she is from. When I was watching the vlog, she was filming in Miami and doing a press conference before returning back to London the following day.

If you want something, you just need to put in the time and effort, and when things get you down, such as when clients are not quite happy with your work, you get rejected, or your boss was not happy with your performance, take stock of what you can improve, rather than just sink in to depression. I mean of course it is natural to be upset when things don't quite turn out the way we want. But we still have to move on because life goes on and hopefully things get better along the way.

In other happy news, I received my performance bonus this week and I am so happy about it. I actually had plans what I wanted to buy such as a bag from Charles & Keith but I still think it was not quite worth the money. I would either buy from sale or at least buy a bag design that I don't mind paying the price for. I bought some make up too because I love make up though I am not willing to spend so much money on it so I had to really pick and choose what I want that I know I will definitely use. 

I can't be like those people spend so much money on make up because well, they're self proclaimed make up addicts and then these products they bought are basically touch and go for them. Even if some of these products can be drugstore brands, and that they may not cost much, it's still money, you know..your hard earned money. But again, everyone has their own thinking of how they should spend their money. They can be ruthless in cutting down in other types of expenditures but choose to spend on make up so we can't really say that they're wasting their money or something. It depends.

Anyway, this week is also awesome because my favourite TV couple is back after what seemed like an eternity. Yes, Shadowhunters is back and I can watch full episodes starting next week because I'm subscribed to Netflix, yay! Of course I don't have to wait that long to watch snippets of Malec, which is the shipping of Alex the Shadowhunter and Magnus the Downworlder. Two people who are from different worlds, where most can't mix together, but they go so well together, awww.. To be honest, while I think they're so sweet together, I can't imagine real life couples saying those phrases to each other, haha. When Alec said I've always dreamed of meeting someone like you' and 'All I care about is how you feel'..i thought, really..couples actually say that? 

Of course, we fans will just wallop these moments they share between each other such as them loathing over the fact they may get separated if Alec chose to accept the position in the council, which means moving to Idris, the capital of the Shadowhunters' city where downworlders such as Magnus, are not allowed. Alec wisely chose not to make the decision in a hurry by also not telling others who will of course, be happy for him and would want him to accept the position straight away. To consider Magnus's feeling, which is top most important to him, is very sweet indeed. But he was taken a back a little when Magnus didn't seem to mind the move exclaiming, 'We will only be a portal away'. 

But Magnus was just hiding his true feelings. He didn't want him to go but at the same time, didn't want to seem selfish. Alec however was resistant against the move because they were inseparable and the move would keep them apart. Especially when in the last season, they went through several rough patches but these made their relationship stronger.

Where can I find a guy like Alec or Magnus? Haha..

So that's my weekly update. I hope to keep this up. I have more interesting posts coming up. Have a good week ahead!
