Be Careful What You Wish For

I left my previous job because I felt stuck and yearned for growth and fresh challenges. Now, in my current role, I find myself swamped with work—sometimes to the point of being overwhelmed. It’s a classic case of ‘be careful what you wish for,’ right? Despite the long hours, including evenings, holidays, and weekends, I continue to supervise my staff diligently. My bosses keep me busy with an endless stream of tasks and to-do lists. Today, I’ve been up since 5 am, juggling calls from various departments, giving instructions, and planning. While it can be exhausting and stressful, I remain thankful for these blessings. Interestingly, most of what’s happening seems to work in my favor. I’m also appreciative of my bosses’ faith in this twenty-nine-year-old manager.

I've been reminding myself to rest and to take care of my over all well-being but the thing is, I have to make sure the lab would not commit errors because the lives of our patients rely on the accuracy of the results we release. Oh, the dillema!

Friday Music

If my life was a movie, this would be the soundtrack...

Icarus? - Serin Oh

I've been listening to this song for years and it still hits different. It's my go-to, whenever I needed to hype myself up. Aside from its title having my nickname in it, I've always been reminding myself not to be like Icarus. And my favorite part of the song is the chorus.

[Verse 1]
Hi there, hey
Doesn’t this love taste a little bit strange?
Plastic buffet
I think I’m missing something

Eat, full, hungry, repeat
Goin’ insane, it’s always the same
And I can’t last another day
어떡해?

[Pre-Chorus]
Vision set on something high
Out of sight
Where’s my mind?
Cos I think I need to find it

Just a little left of the right time
Never thought I’d see myself this blind
But if it’s jump or giving up
I hope I’m not an icarus

[Chorus]
Bye
I’m gonna go fly
Yeah I might fall but it’s better to try
See me slippin’ and slidin’
Imma keep smilin’
I found me when I lost my mind
Look at her go
Said that she couldn’t
What the hell do they know?
Ya might see sweat drippin’ down my eyes (but)
I found me when I lost my mind

[Verse 2]
Hold up, wait
Carry on bag full of things that you say
Can’t hold the weight
(It’s gettin’ heavy)
I think I might be crashing
Life vest under the seat
It’s never too late to drink the Kool-Aid
But I don’t wanna live that way
어떡해?

[Pre-Chorus]
Vision set on something high
Out of sight
Where’s my mind?
Cos I’m feelin’ kinda sideways

Just a little left of the right time
Never thought I’d see myself this blind
But dude if it’s jump or giving up
I hope I’m not an icarus
[Chorus]
Bye
I’m gonna go fly
Yeah I might fall but it’s better to try
See me slippin’ and slidin’
Imma keep smilin’
I found me when I lost my mind

(I said) Woah
Look at her go
Said that she couldn’t
What the hell do they know?
You might see sweat drippin’ down my eyes (but)
I found me when I lost my mind

God is an Awesome God

It's amazing how the little things and little moments God send my way lead to great things.

For example: I'm not a fan of commuting. When no one is available to fetch me and drive for me, another convenient mode of transportation magically appears at the exact moment I need it. 😂

Another example is when it rains when I've already gotten in the building or home.

And it's always the timing of things and events that I am grateful for.

Also grateful that God keeps sending good people, lovely animals and good vibes my way.

These things give me the assurance that I have nothing to worry about because He always got my back. 🥹🙏

So thank You, Lord... for these small things. They mean a lot to me.
