I've been looking for some kind of new opportunity to come my way for quite a while now and with this advertisement that I saw recently about part time degree courses in singapore, I do believe I might have found just what I've been looking for all these years. It might seem silly to just leave home and go to to Singapore to pursue some degree that I haven't even chosen yet but I have always lived my life in the most impulsive kind of way and I want to be able to continue doing so. I've found that the more impulsive my decisions, the better they seem to work out for me. I feel like I am able to intuitively decide on the best course of action and if I spend too much time trying to think about a decision I need to make then I end up making the wrong one due to over thinking about the possible ramifications that might occur if I do make one.

I know, it sounds completely backwards but it's the best way for me to do things. It's like I actively listen to my gut feeling and over the years of doing so, I have refined my decision making capability. I can't recall a time where my gut lead me in the wrong direction. Sure, I don't know much about Singapore and I know even less about the languages spoken there or the culture but just like anything else in life you have to practice at the things you do in order to get better at them. I'll just spend some time working on my language skills while I learn about the people even as I go to school there; what better place to practice those skills if not a university or college of some kind?

I have a lot of trees on my property, and it is several more trees than I want to have. I am sick of having to pick up so many sticks, and acorns, and having to deal with the leaves that fall out of the trees in winter. I should have cut down some of these trees, when they were but saplings. However, I did not anticipate such issues, and let them live to maturity. That has came back to bite me, as now I need to find tree service in long island to hire for the job. I am thinking that I would like to have at least half of the trees in my yard cut down, but I doubt that I can afford that.

I need to work with a contractor that does tree work, to figure out a price for an acceptable amount of work. I am going to get the most problematic trees cut down first, and then I will worry about other ones, if I have more money to spend. I really have no idea how much money it is going to cost to get what I want done, but I kind of suspect that it is going to be out of my price range.

There are a few trees that are over 100 feet tall, and they are located close enough to my house, such that they could hit my house, if they were to fall. That troubles me quite a bit, and those are some of my highest priority trees to have cut down. I think that they are pretty old anyway, and likely close to the end of their life span. I actually worry about them falling quite a bit, and I would like to get rid of them to ease my mind.

I wanted to spend some time cooking in my new kitchen that was freshly designed. My husband was good enough to me to give me a new kitchen so I thought that I would cook him a new meal. I went to get xanax at the pharmacy and while I was there I saw that there was one of those set of knives that was going to be shown on TV only but now they were being sold in the stores. I was going to get a set of them as I thought that it would be nice to have a new set so that I could actually use them to cut my vegetables at home but then I thought that the knife set that I had at home was only a few years old and that they should still be sharp. I stopped to get some of the vegetables for the soup that I was cooking and on my way home is where I went.

I went to the kitchen and started to wash all of the vegetables. I dried them as I did not want them to get a slimy coating on them as I was cutting them so that they would make the knife slip and I knew that would be a good way to cut myself, as I had done that before. I could not believe how many people were talking to me about the dullness of my knives at Christmas a few weeks prior as they were trying to cut into their meat, I thought that the meat was just rough. Sure enough, I was using a dull knife and I went to go cut into one of my very hard pieces of food and the knife when flying to my thumb and I almost cut it off.

It has only been a few weeks since I moved into the duo residences, but I feel it is safe to say that I am absolutely loving my time here. I didn't expect to fall in love with a city but I have completely given my heart over to Singapore! It was just a few short weeks ago that I decided to do something completely different with my life. I sold my house. I quit my job. I bought a plane ticket and a condo in Singapore; drastic measures to change my life, but measures that had to be taken if I really wanted to create change. I have never been an individual who tries to do things simply. I knew that doing this was going to be challenging but the more difficult that I make things for myself, the more I will adapt and overcome these challenges. That is the only way to truly ensure that I am doing my best.

I have always been told that I make things difficult for myself but I have always managed to overcome these challenges. It might be an intuitive action; how else do we know our limitations if we are not challenged? How do we not learn new things if we're faced with challenges? Coming to Singapore was a true challenge; with no friends or family in the area, I had to make my own way into this place. Finding work, thankfully, was easy enough. Access to the Internet can provide for nearly anything you might want for, when it comes to financial need. As a writer, I can find work without even trying; it might not always pay the most but I can edit transcripts, e-books or even write articles for search engine optimization utilities. There are many options for a writer on the web.
