Ways to Combat Monday Blues

I have resumed my attempt to combat Monday blues since I went back to "normal" life.

According to an article in "My Paper", one of the ways to feel less blue is to stop indulging in "good food" over the weekends. Oops, this is really tough for a glutton like me. I would have to find some alternative solutions.

Some of my measures to combat Monday blues include:

1) Complete all the household chores (especially ironing) by Saturday
2) Exercise
3) Stay at home on Sunday night
4) ......

I'm still looking for more ways to help me feel less blue. Any other suggestions? :)

An Early Day

I reached home relatively early today and was quite happy to be able to catch the last bit of 《同心圓》. All thanks to my colleague who gave me a lift home. If not, I would have taken ages to reach home from the other part of the island.

I am still trying to adjust to my new life. Cooking dinner everyday is no longer quite possible but I'll try to work out something when I am more adjusted. It's really not easy. I wonder how people with kids actually manage.

Came home at 7.30 pm last night, dumped my things and went for a jog. I thought I would just run one round since the sky was getting dark. Ha, just when I was about to stop, I heard this song and decided to continue running. :)

那阳光碎裂在熟悉场景好安静
一个人能背多少的往事真不轻
谁的笑谁的温暖的手心我着迷
伤痕好像都变成了曾经

全剧终看见满场空座椅灯亮起
这故事好像真实又像虚幻的情景
只是那好不容易被说服的自己
借口又顶不住懊恼的侵袭

好后悔好伤心想重来行不行
再一次我就不会走向这样的结局
好后悔好伤心谁把我放回去
我愿意付出所有来换一个时光机

对不起独自回荡在空气没人听
最后又是孤单到天明

真的痛总是来得很轻盈没声音
从背后慢慢缓缓抱着我就像你
你和我还有很多的地方还没去
为何留我荒唐的坐在这里⋯⋯

好巧，昨天早上腦海中迴盪的正是這首《時光機》⋯⋯

Back to Reality

After nearly 6 months, my HDB tai-tai life came to a close on Wednesday, 18 June 2008.

Yup, I am now back to the workforce and I am trying very hard to get used to a relatively routine lifestyle. It's only been 3 days and I miss my life as a home maker so much. I can no longer watch so much TV, wake up (and sleep) as and when I like, go shopping during other people's office hours and laze at home......

After 6 long years, returning to the corporate world is a very frightening experience for a timid person like me. I guess I would have to learn to protect myself and work smart. Oh, must learn to combat Monday blues too ......

Honestly, I think home maker is the job that suits me the most (haha) but sad to say, I can't do this forever. The time has come for me to face reality and go back to the harsh REAL world. I still do not know what I really want. I guess I may never find the answer. Perhaps I shouldn't even dwell on this topic in the first place. I might be happier if I could just stop thinking so much.

My new boss told me on my first day that no one is happy every day but if one is happy on most days, it would be good enough.

I guess I need to change the way I perceive things. At the end of the day, it's all a matter of perception, isn't it?
