Bismillah.

Yo, what’s up! Hahaha! I’m actually really happy with my new blog layout or skin. It brings me back to those days when I was using Blogger and Angelfire! HAHAHA!

Not the most aesthetic but it just feels so raw and native.

I’m still struggling with work but I’m still feeling positive and happy. I think the biggest test was for me yesterday when I had to replace a teammate for a duty. I did feel the power struggle between my good and bad sides but professionally, I believe I did the best I could.

Interestingly, it was other teammates that questioned the legitimacy of the unavailability of the person I replaced yesterday as opposed to me expressing unhappiness about it. I did not even need to mention anything but they came to their own deductions. I also received help without having to really press on it. I actually came in to work extremely tired but after seeing the people I would be working with, I felt energised by their presence and I just felt really happy to have had the chance to deputise them.

Man, I really hope to keep up a really positive projection at work. I realise it does help to always imbue my teammates with a strong positive force as opposed to my sullenness.

I guess I’m resolved right now to be the first person anyone thinks of whenever the word “positive” comes up. I think that’ll be a brilliant achievement in my life!

Managed to catch up on a lot of sleep and I’m feeling much better. Also, stumbled across a very interesting video below.

Hearts can turn, I realise. And it is extremely important to have a sense of self. If you don’t recognise who you are, you may get swept up by emotions, ideas, and negativity easily.

Well, my plan today is to chill, finally run that 5K I have been meaning to, and prepare for work.

Tomorrow I go again!
