99 PROBLEMS


Okay, first off, I should not let my roots grow. It looks ugly. Let this blog post serve as a promise to NEVER grow my roots to more than 1 cm. Now that that's out of the way, I can go back to talking about normal, random, anything goes, overshare... which is pretty much what the first line was, but ANYWAY! 

I'm back in Singapore. We arrived Monday afternoon, but my body clock is still somewhere west - a minor setback - from an amazing opportunity! - during 2015's final hustle. The year went by so fast! I still have a ton of 2015 posts, so I'm debating on whether I should publish my London trip first or continue sifting through my backlog. Or if I should just F this blog altogether. Just kidding. We all know how *that* worked out (spoiler alert: It didn't. I couldn't stay away). 

Aside from jet lag and my blog schedule, I've been going through some more "happy problems" which are blessings or privileges that have some sort of strings - the minimal, minuscule kind! - attached. Kinda like first world problems coz they're not even considered problems in the grander scale of things. Okay, fine, some may even consider it as "humble brags". It's problems that require you to prioritize and even strategize between desirable options. It's where people like me who want EVERYTHING, NOW(!) struggle. Because like what I keep on relearning, I can have everything. But not all at the same time, with all portions equal. Sometimes you have to sacrifice sleep, being likeable, FUN for something greater. I don't know about you, but I'd take these "problems" any day. 

Coz like everything else, it's a matter of perspective. A way of framing situations and looking at things - and the good news is, this is entirely in your control. Use your focus wisely and sing with me: I've got 99 problems but a bitch it ain't. ;)
