🫀008: To new places
Hello you!
Since my last email, we've moved from one side of the island all the way to the other. We're very near the beach now, just a 10-minute walk away. So I'm very thankful.
I'm not a sand-in-my-toes kind of person. In fact, I don't enjoy the feeling of sand in between my toes. For me, being near the beach is more about the sunrises and the sunsets.
Actually, scratch that.
It's all about the sunrises and the sunsets.
I absolutely love the movement of the sun. There's something otherworldly about it signifying the passing of days and time.
Maybe it has something to do with my love for astronomy as well. I mean.. the sun is a star, right?
Anyway, this week I came across a very interesting article.
It's short and really fun to read.
And if you're someone who enjoys taking short afternoon walks, you might wanna give it a read.
I hope this short email finds you well. With the borders between Singapore and Malaysia opening up, I might be able to go home for a short trip after all, before starting my new job as a cardiac technologist.
Either way, I'm excited for all things to come.
Are you looking forward to anything new in your life?
Sending love,
Mich

It was my first time outside of Asia, and the new environment allowed me the time and space to reflect and plan. getting to see wombats up close 😍 definitely my highlight of...
It’s hard being a modern human. We’re being bombarded left and right by conflicting ideas. Speak louder! Keep quiet! You should do more! Less is more! Your problem is you don’t speak up! Your tone of voice is causing you problems! It’s more crucial than ever to be able to find clarity in this increasingly confusing world. Our minds and beliefs are being pulled left and right by people with opposing points of view and way more influence than us. As an absolute introvert myself, I know how it...
We often overlook one very important aspect of communication. I would even argue it’s the most important aspect. Before I tell you what that is, let me first share with you with a lesson I learned this week. Trust me, it’ll all make sense. A few days ago, I was lamenting how I usually have this incredible zest when starting out at a new job or learning something new. I’m always gripped by this unexplainable obsession to do something well or get something right. Recently though, I’ve...
