i've just been trying to find more meaning in my life, and to my life.
now that i'm working full-time, it's just *so* mundane. it's worse than studying, because at least in uni i didn't have a fixed schedule per se. don't get me wrong - i love my job to bits. but the fact that i no longer really have autonomy in how i spend my days just kinda makes me feel a little bummed out.
that's why now that i'm, what, three months? in my job, i'm actively trying to ask people out to meet after work so that i can start having things to look forward to. it's great to go home immediately once in a while after work, but most of the time i just can't stand it lol.
recently, i've been getting really into watching vlogs by ondo. she's this korean vlogger who vlogs about her life - but it's really interesting because she loves staying at home and lounging around, and she also cooks and has a really aesthetically pleasing home. because of her, i've been getting more into cooking and have tried my hand at souffle pancakes and kinchi fried rice. i've got to say, my kimchi fried rice is really not bad and i honestly love it! still got to work a little harder on the souffle pancakes though.
i don't know, it's pretty weird. i've been trying to "convert" myself into a homebody - aka someone who is comfortable staying at home, instead of constantly going out. i mean, that's probably the best and most affordable option, no? food will be cooked at home, and i don't have to spend extra on dinner outside. but it just... doesn't bring me joy. being at home is just suffocating imo, and i have little to no human interaction which sucks. oh well.
anywhoooo, i'm still very very grateful for how my life has turned out in 2019! honestly believing that this is one of the best years so far. also, can't wait for my taiwan trip in august :-)

Situated in the sunny island of Singapore, Jolene recently (is 2 years considered recent?) graduated from university and is now working in a job she never expected herself to hold. Besides having frequent quarter-life crises, she also indulges in video games, anime, and aesthetic korean girls documenting their life in vlogs.
Although not as eloquent with words, she still aims to try her best to bring across her thoughts to the Internet.
