4th Jan (Sat)

had a terrible night of sleep... had a terrible moody morning...it's a day where i shouldnt be left alone to 胡思乱想 胡思乱骂 so super thankful when joyce invited me over to gym together and thankful for kakis who suggested, sponsored and participated in our first ever mask-jong together too... 😂😂😂

I.II.MMXXV (Thur)

original plan was to title this year's monthly entry as "MicroJoy in..." as inspired by the book "MicroJoys" that i read in May last year... but I had used "Joy in..." just in 2024 and MicroJoy in 2025 does sound like a downgrade in retrospect... 😂😂😂

nopx, i'm not gonna jinx my 2025... my life can only get better and be better. Since i'm reading on how practicing gratitude is an amazing tool to help children (and me) build our happiness and well-being in "My Happy Mind", i decided to tweak it for this year's monthly headers... 

and for today, i am giving thanks to :

> wise & flexible leadership that allows me to sleep in a little more and to wfh today

> the efficiency and resourcefulness to finish all that i had to for Art & PAL... no math this year!!! HooWoo!!! 

> the determination to complete book #1 of the year "My Happy Mind"

> the anti-laziness to go out for lunch just so to have the much needed veg intake and for my 7km hamster walk walk which allowed me to bump into uncle wan!!!
