Ragey New Year everyone! By the way, all pictures here are taken with my Charmera for that 90s feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"point<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Apparently people have work have noticed me being angry and it’s the start of the year. But, why not? When every year I have observed and put in my own data (I actually put in a google sheets) of happenings (not weeks, it’s months and years<\/em>) and noticed that if people won’t change themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing I can change is myself isn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So no. I’m not going to wish a happy new year. It’s not a fits-all greeting. I’m wishing you all a ragey new year to those who get it and need it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tend to not talk behind people’s backs, I talk in front of themselves. Because why talk behind people’s backs when you can talk in front of them so they can take note and then improve themselves, hmm?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And because they do not<\/strong>, then it’s RAGEY NEW YEAR EVERYONE<\/mark><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"POSB<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I mean, what’s the point of wishing happy new year when you know it is going to suck or that the people who actually think to wish it happy new year do nothing<\/em> to make it happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rest of the year just ends up more depressing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shut it with toxic positivity and gas lighting.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wish you a ragey new year. Perhaps you’ll start it really angry and then it actually ends happy<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s ironic is even when I’m really seemingly angry to them all, they still approach me because they know things still get done. Which is ridiculous really since I tend to have to fix other people’s shortcomings so excuse me, why shouldn’t I be angry? It’s a right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, let’s start off things differently compared to other years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"orchard<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As I walked around Orchard road for some errands too, I just wondered if this point is where the Orchard Road Fashion<\/a> account usually takes videos or photos from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s just me being curious and nothing to do with being angry, or IS IT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"a<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, there was a cute crow who flew down and landed at the crossing bollards and I managed to take some close ups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"temasek<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What would you guys do. Will you continue the year with a fake happy start even if you know it isn’t going to be happy? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lunar New Year is going to be next month so you can have a Take 2 of a new year too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technically you can take any time, any month, any day to reset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your own life is your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just the start of the year is when everyone<\/em> else as a majority would like to “restart” but you can have a head start on restarting any time once you know where you would like to go or do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can you influence those around you when they will not<\/strong> change for the better no matter how many notices or warnings they get?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the only solution is to change yourself to go around them and shock them into action. And if they still won’t, at least you’ve tried it and you can put it in findings (I’m kinda data driven on my own in qualitative findings, not quantitative) and do an alternative way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"singapore<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Of course, you have to first identify are<\/em> you the problem? And if not, what other things to mitigate it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that, I leave you with a fun fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The payphones in Singapore by Singtel are free for you to call locally for up to 3 minutes if you can find them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also why is it free? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can’t officially buy Singtel phonecards for payphones any more. Any available cards are just collector’s items. And my<\/em> guess is that it’s difficult to tear up all the existing phone lines and phones that are built along the road or HDBs for decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s better to keep it there and be used for emergencies, isn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s one way of finding solutions and adapting to the times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ragey New Year everyone, feel free to comment the same to me.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
