Happy Chinese Year Blog,
February is a short month, and I am glad I could finish the late posts from January and December. Most people will have no idea what I feel or why I feel compelled to complete it.
 |
| Because there is a time stamp, it is similar to doing a project or work from. When you receive and complete it, the more backlog you have, the more difficult it is to complete, especially if it stacks. Scary... |
Anyway, I finished my late posts about my Vietnam trip. It is time to focus on my February post. (Honestly, time flies)...

| 1st Feb 2025 - M wanted to meet up for a quick lunch before she flew again; thank you for accommodating my schedule, especially since the meal is not cheap. I hope your Vietnam and Russia business is resolved soon. |

| 1st Feb 2025 - Because it was still Chinese New Year, many badminton players did not attend today, leaving only my elder brother, a friend, and myself. The entire badminton court belonged to us! |
|
| 3rd Feb 2025 - Today, I returned a large box from my workplace to help with an event; what is inside? Yes, it was the God of Fortune or Cai Shen costume. Thank goodness, my school leader agreed to let me loan out the costume to be used in old folks' home volunteer work and events the same week, but due to miscommunication and confusion on my end, I will not be using it for the old folks home, so I will use it for other events, and the feeling of making others smile was such a good reward, even though it was hot wearing the costume. |
|
| 5th Feb 2025 - Speaking of hot, wearing a trisuit for any activity is so cool, especially when air flows through it while I am jogging. Nice sensation. Should I bring my drone out while jogging? 🤔 Perhaps I shouldn't; drones are best suited for hiking. |
|
| 6th Feb 2025 - Or, better yet, just wear a trunk? Haha 😂 Well, that attire is only for the Roman gods, and I am a nerd geek, so "hot" will never stick to me. Perhaps "warm" (warm guy) is the word I should embrace. Anyway, there were a lot of people swimming today... I can not take many photos today. |
|
| 8th Feb 2025 - Previously, I loaned out and dressed up as Cai Shen, which pleased most people, but today I would have to dress up twice: once for class and again at my brother's house, where my relatives had arrived for a visit. I am glad I bring joy to others than hatred. |
 |
| 11th Feb 2025 - Oh my... I thought I could avoid taking a power nap these days, but I can't... I still need a 10-minute power nap to recharge; I am just an old phone, and my battery will not last all day. |
|
| 12th Feb 2025 - Before my calendar became overloaded with duties and meetings, I used to go for a jog whenever I had the opportunity. It has been a while since I have worn this black trisuit; I was thinking about selling some of my trisuits, but... Seriously, no one will want to buy it... Unless I am a buff person to boost product sales. |
|
| 14th Feb 2025 - Today, I ran into a friend I hadn't seen in a long time while swimming. He and his partner were hanging out nearby, and seeing them together reminded me that Valentine's Day is approaching! Happy Valentine's Day to everyone (if anyone is reading this)! While many celebrate love in couples, I'm taking this opportunity to celebrate myself. Couples may share sweets and joyful moments, but relationships and being single come with unique stories and sweetness. For me, I just want to share my thoughts on my blog. So... happy swimming to me! 🙌 |

14th Feb 2025 - Happy Valentine's Day, M. Thank you for inviting me out for dinner right after you arrived in Singapore. I understand you have hope and faith in me, but you are also aware that things cannot be forced. I had thought the future and my level of commitment, as well as being true to myself; I should not rush into a relationship simply because I care. I do not wish for history to repeat itself. If I followed other people's advice or was concerned with breaking the curse of singlehood, I would not be truly like you and would instead be selfish. Perhaps I will write a focused post on this, so I will not go into detail here because many people do not understand. But I truly want to thank you; you hold a special place in my heart.

15th Feb 2025 - Thomson Nature Park Again
(Drafting) |

| 15th Feb 2025 - (Credit Elmo, M and other people) This is my first time cosplaying to watch a movie, and the best part is that I'm doing it with a group of other cosplayers. I wanted to cosplay in the past, but I felt awkward because I had to do it alone. I want to thank D, who was also going to the movies, for picking me up and helping me get ready in the parking lot before we made our way to the cinema together. I regret not wearing my helmet, as it would have helped conceal my stupid face and allowed me to focus more on the character I was portraying. However, we definitely made a statement in the cinema! |

| 16th Feb 2025 - My otter collection is growing, and I can not help but add more of these adorable creatures! Do you think they are as charming as I am? While I was carrying it in my arm and in the lift, one of the passengers mentioned how adorable the otter plush is, and I could not agree more! It makes perfect sense why they are so beloved. |

| 19th Feb 2025 - Today, I decided to sell my old Captain America costume at a low price, hoping that someone else could embrace it. After the sale, the buyer told me that the costume was too tight, and I felt bad. I know how disappointing it can be to buy something that doesn’t work out, and I didn’t want other people than me to feel that way. After some reflection, I decided to take back the costume and return his money. While knowing some people might see this as unnecessary, I knew I would feel worse if I had just walked away. Looking back, I have no regrets. Instead, I see this as a reminder to stay true to my values—choosing kindness even in small actions. Now, I plan to repurpose the costume for my voluntary work, embracing it myself with a new purpose. |
More to come.
Jeff
