I started this blog around a year ago to post my thoughts as I juggled the various aspects of life, including parenting, gaming and work. Then things really took a turn for the worse as I not only got COVID, I got made redundant and my little one was going through sleep regression that one typically goes through during the first 3-6 months of one’s life. All of that really required me to shuffle my priorities around, and invariably this blog and content creation in general just fell through the cracks.

Since then I went job-hunting, which took around four months. That was a rollercoaster in that it required me to reconcile what I ideally wanted with what was obtainable in the shortest amount of time. I had even tried to look for roles that would be considered a downgrade given my experience, as I thought the work would be less taxing, meaning more time and energy for family, but even that didn’t work because of all of the potential employers for those roles that I got interviews for had the preconception that I wouldn’t find the work interesting or fulfilling enough to stay long-term. I ultimately ended up in a role that would be normally seen as an upwards move career-wise, but as a contractor.

After constantly working for more than six months as a contractor though, I once again felt disillusioned with corporate life and needed something to give me more joy in life, and now I’ve found myself getting into online retail therapy, namely designer handbags and other accessories. Then I thought, why don’t I also share what I’ve come across from browsing a lot of the internet for quality items that don’t break the bank? Hence, I’m restarting this blog after so long, with a focus on what I love and aspire towards with regards to gaming, family and lifestyle, so stay tuned!
