We swam from albatross

hello!! finally back after a very long while. 

so circuit breaker ended, and now we are in phase 2. but fortunately the streets have still been pretty empty, public transport is surprisingly bearable to be on (i guess most people are still WFH) and life in general, has been pleasant. 

work has been better and more manageable, though of course, don't want to sound too optimistic in fears of jinxing myself. somehow that always happens to me - i tell my colleague i have nth to do, and next moment i have alot of things to do -___- 

today is polling day!! hope yall had a great one - i personally am super happy and thankful to finally have another long weekend after what feels like ages. 

oh yes and i also changed phone, so not sure when will be the next time i upload pictures, sobs sorry. still trying to get used to it plus i stopped taking pics of every single little thing, so i can save space hahaha. 

anyways, gonna do some more questions!! enjoy~ or BYE if you're not keen to read my answers. 

happy weekend + week ahead everybody :)
