It's always my fault, isn't it?

Hello, I'm Jazel. I'm on most social media platforms as @JazelTWY. I have had this space since 2008, and I see it as a outlet for my thoughts, when short status updates or instagram captions won't cut it. It's a public private space, of sorts. Comments?

2020 - What a year. 

I read somewhere that said you are in a privileged position if you are wishing for Circuit Breaker to not end.

Honestly it was a very different phase for me (and for everybody too) but I really liked the idea of being forced to be home. I suppose I'm privileged in this aspect. 

January

Started the year off with a bang in London and Switzerland, and honestly I won't have it any other way. Being able to start the year off overseas... and to be stuck in Singapore because of a pandemic for the rest of the year... Am just thankful I took that trip.

11 Jan - Jay Chou's concert. First concert of the year - but who knew it would be the last too?

CNY begun with all the festivities.... but COVID-19 struck at the same time. Didn't travel out of home because we wanted to avoid crowds. 

February

2 Feb - Went for Shake Shack Family & Friends day @ Neil Road - cue the first of many, all thanks to Shihying.

3 Feb - CNY buffet @ Beach Road Kitchen, courtesy of Mastercard. Once again - who knew it's the last time I would had self-service buffet LOL.

5 Feb - beginning of office life @ Changi Business Park due to split site... This was one of the most memorable periods of my life in CIMB. 

21 Feb - Supposed to fly to Bangkok with Ping Kee but we postponed it to July. "By then COVID should be ok already la". Till now we still laughing @ our optimistic self. 

March

Still in CPB. Still chilling. 

18 March - Promoted. Was really, really, really happy. It was just the affirmation I needed.

20 March - last day at CBP. Was going to start WFH life for a couple of weeks (since it's rotational basis) but... turned out to be for the rest of the year.

21 March - sibei boliao went to SIM to collect grad cert but the office closed like what

December

Extremely memorable month. 

10 Dec - 2nd year in CIMB.

15 Dec - Virtual grad ceremony lol

Essentially went out every day from 15 Dec. Crazy intensive but it was good fun to meet up with all my friends...

31 Dec - Counted down with the friends important to me. 


Think the year treated me reasonably well. I mean, considering that there was a raging pandemic... I'm thankful that my family and friends are safe. Lost some weight too, which I thought would never happen. Thankful that the friends I hold dear are still here, and thankful for you.

Can't believe the year is done, really.
