Life Is Wild

It’s Friday! So I’m not gonna talk about how my manager almost made me cry today (yes… again).

Anyway! I randomly opened Netflix and BAM — discovered that a Detective Conan movie is on there! Naturally, I dropped everything and watched Detective Conan: The Last Wizard of the Century. A cinematic masterpiece, thank you very much.

Conan from the 90s to the early 2000s? Chef’s kiss. That anime style? Art. But I don’t even need to explain it — real Conan fans know.

The current anime style though… ehhh. Let’s just say: “no comment.”

Actually, scratch that — y’all can look at the image below and see the downgrade with your own eyes. I’m not even gonna say anything else.

Now, onto today’s plot twist of LinkedIn: The Workplace Chronicles.

So, this colleague — let’s call him TK — sent me a connection request on LinkedIn. I accepted (as one does), and casually scrolled through his profile. Turns out he’s been working here for over 2 years.

I showed his profile to my supervisor, and he jokingly said, “Judging from this guy’s timeline, he’ll probably tender soon.”

We laughed. Haha. Funny.

But GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TODAY.

Yup. My supervisor told me, “TK just tendered. Next Friday’s his last day.”

HELLO? EXCUSE ME? I need this man to predict my 4D numbers next.

So yes — today I came to the only logical conclusion:

Life is wild.

Don’t even try to figure out other people’s lives — just trying to navigate our own is already a full-time job.

Moral of the story: mind your own biz and live your best chaotic life.

Speaking of mine, I’m just counting down to April 21st so I can hand in my resignation letter and witness my manager’s face go full drama mode.

He probably thinks I won’t resign ‘cause of my Employment Pass situation and the fact I’m not a PR yet. I mean, most people wait till they get PR for “stability.”

But me?

I am not “most people.”

I am chaos in a human form, thank you.

Also, the idea of growing old in Singapore? Nah. Never crossed my mind.

Can’t even picture my life after 40 — honestly, who knows if I’ll even make it to 40?

Life’s unpredictable like that. You never know what’s gonna happen tomorrow, so appreciate today. Stop worrying about the future so much that you forget to actually live.

(Easier said than done, I know. I’m still learning not to cling to the past or spiral over the future too.)

Anyway — peace out ✌️

It’s Saturday tomorrow and Imma sleep until my body decides it’s time.
