Sometimes I should really learn to expect less from others, especially if I wouldn’t want others to expect a lot from me either. Like what S told me, “Sometimes we end up feeling disappointed because we are willing to do so much more.” So very true. Nobody likes the feeling of being unappreciated, and that feeling tend to surface when one puts in effort but the amount of effort reciprocated fails to match up. In short, one should learn to ‘give no fuck’ at times. “And not a single fuck was given.” Maybe this is the key to a less disappointed self.
Dinner date with my dearest Buddeh yesterday! She spent her last hour in the office rushing her spreadsheets just so she can meet me (and avoid me having to wait for her), how touching! :’) I was pretty hungry from the long day in school (2 back to back seminars from 12-530pm) & I went to grab my favorite raisin & walnut bun from Four Leaves as soon as I reached NEX! Being a typical ‘kiasu’ Singaporean, I went to Qiji to chop us seats & ordered popiahs for both of us! I think the people must be wondering why I ordered 2 separate plates when I appeared to be alone. Started eating first cuz the popiahs were TOO tempting. Like what buddeh told me, “it’s a torture to stare at food and not eat them!” Hahaha
Beginning to like the popiahs from Qiji more and more! They are much less oily than the one from nearby my place.

Stopped by for Sogurt! (Yami is still the best though!)
Glad to know that at the end of the day, I still have my pillars of support and they are the ones who matter the most to me And what they have in common is that they make me feel appreciated. Guess I do expect quite a bit, but I can safely say that I do put in quite a lot of effort in most of my friendships.
I’ve tried. Usually the one to initiate but don’t take the amount of attention and effort I devote for granted. From now on, I shall make a mental note to be less initiative & focus my attention on only the Best. Why should I let myself be affected by people who don’t know how to appreciate?
“Keeping room only for the Best.
And not a single fuck was given.”
