Working, it's double pay but I knew that the pay check couldn't sustain.
Moving on without motivation.
But this first day of 2026, I had the best gift from heaven -

I am able to walk down the stairs almost painlessly! I only found out when the lift at the overhead bridge was out of order. I walked down the stairs to get to the bus stop, and then... NO PAIN!!! So I was walking down the stairs in tears of joy. For years, this was my first time walking down the stairs at ease.I didn't lose weight, I didn't change or take new medication, I did very little exercise and stretching. So I didn't know how and exactly when I recover.
Maybe god finally took pity on me, took off some pain away from me.
The future was very uncertain, the job was just get taxing and toxic.
This was a not very filling lonely dinner from Saizeriya.

Nothing much, just another work day, wearing FILA.
Threw up and LS the entire night.

Manage to turn up at work as if nothing had happened. But couldn't finish the cup porridge for dinner.
Would be grateful if I could lost some weight. Well, I doubt so.

On a run to JB alone, leaving all the shit behind, felt lighter and lighter.
Booked Fives Hotel in Trip, it was S$80/night (after that I saw the price went down to S$60+ urrggg...)
I reached around 11.30am but they had a room for me, so I was able to check in!
Contemporary interior was new and spotless clean.
If I had to nick pick, I almost couldn't reach the hangers. Also a place to put the luggage would be nice.
Washroom was decent.
The main purpose of this trip was to visit the dentist.
After a series of X-ray, the bad news was that the misalignment was caused by the jaw. It was very likely that the bad fall I had in Aug, I had knocked on my jaw without knowing. The jaw muscle got "confused", instead of moving to the original position, it started to pull in opposite direction. Now that I am having difficulties in biting, it may be worsen affecting my speech if I leave it alone.
Summary - I have to make a hospital appointment back in Singapore, haiz...
Walked to Thong Thai massage parlor which was just a few shops away.
After that had late lunch at Southkey MidValley. Stumpled upon Uncle Roger's fried rice while looking a place to eat.
For the fun of it not pinning high hopes.
The interior was very bright with cartoon version of Uncle Roger.
I ordered extra chicken which came black and dry.
Right opposite was this big and pretty looking nail parlor, I just popped in and try. Wrong move. No good, the lady doing my pedi forever kept adjusting my feet (that NEVER happen in other salons). My mood was just dampened and I felt that the mani wasn't too good either.
Food was generally good here and this was my 2nd visit.
黄酒鸡 (yellow wine chicken), warmed my weak stomach. Maybe a little too sweet but was still good.
That ended the day in the mall and went back to Fives Hotel to chill.

Fives Hotel's buffet breakfast, a bit disappointed. No egg station, no sausage/ham.
But to be on the fair side, I only paid S$2 extra for this buffet breakfast.
Ikan bilis and randang chicken were the only meat options.
The crew put me in this closed section and I had this whole area all by myself.
They gave me a private table, I tried to make things easier for them.
After breakfast, snugged back to bed for a while more.
Was very reluctant to check out. I will be back.
This was LUXE (City Square outlet), I bleached my hair again.
I wanted to do ash pink, but the hairstylist said the color wouldn't last for more than a week. Had ash brown, he called it milk tea brown. It faded very quickly too, I should had done the pink sia.
Anyway, this was really pretty, I seemed so many shades fairer.
The greyish gradient was due to the old bleach, super pretty looking, made me looked extremely outstanding in the crowd.
Had Arashi hotpot for dinner before heading back to Singapore.
I wouldn't say it's the best hot pot, I kept returning cos the place was quiet, could eat peacefully and the price was ok.
Fish slice + shabu pork set.
Heading back was a breeze with no jams.
Mentally re-charged but still dreaded to work the next day.
