Happy songs

Happy Taylor swift songs stuck in my head like a happy playlist 

I feel it’s rare to be generally quite happy and content so I thought I would note it down 

I was so happy I even wrote how happy I was in one of my WhatsApp group chats to share 


I’m on a holiday now with my family in law and it’s not like everything is perfect of course there are some challenges and thoughts and worries about life as usual. My husband already gave me multiple heart attacks and my nag meter is through the roof 

I concluded again that I miss and like my life in malaysia a lot despite its many problems, probably mostly because it’s what I know and am used to, but not wrong to be grateful for it


So yes I’m happy on a holiday of course because it’s a short commitment free pocket of life, I only need to get a drink and walk through the city with some sunshine, also cos my husband is helpful planner and I’ve been able to turn off my brain 


It’s also nice to get more opportunities to be closer with my family in law, as tiring as it can be sometimes to learn new things about different people


But overall it’s nice to not worry about work, cny is usually quite fun but also stressful so now we’re away so it’s an interesting experience


Why else am I happy? I’m a month away from changing my job which is crazy i definitely need a whole post on that but it’s the next phase in life for me to look forward to, and of course financially as well there’s gonna be a difference.

Although I still have some financial worries constantly as we all do, I always need to remind myself how blessed I am and remember to be thankful for the small things which is part of my attitude now anyway hence this post 


I’m also just planning for a Korea holiday with friends, the places I wanna go and the people I wanna go with


Maybe underlying tone is also that as much as I like this worry free life, I know I won’t go crazy going after it to fill any emptiness or discontentment. It will be the normal thing to aim for this lifestyle whether it be through more money and early retirement etc, but I know it’s back to the normal life after this.


Literally the only thing that would make me happier is that if my dress today had pockets serious
