Have officially completed 1 year of summer! Assuming NZ summer starts in November... and there is no seasons but summer, wetter summer, and drier summer in Singapore. Still no tan though. 🏖️😎☀️

Who sets an email out of office with no return date?! Argh. How do I know if it’s “urgent” and to contact someone else if I don’t know when you’re back? In two days... sweet as. In two weeks... prob need to find someone else. Grrr rant over.

Can see viaduct from office, it’s a beautiful day... need someone to have a wine with. When did all my mates stop working in town?! 😅

Kia Kaha NZ, the news from home today is devastating. So many people who chose NZ as home to be safe and they weren’t 😥

AirPods cases have such a strong resemblance to the tampon holders given out to teenage girls at school puberty classes. Either designed by a man, or a woman taking the piss. Either way I giggle every time.

Was hoping to avoid lockdown in Singapore. Just over 48h until we start. 4 weeks of me, myself and Inhope my flatmates don’t kill me.

#CIRCUITBREAKER Day 1 in Singapore. So far seems like a normal Tuesday WFH. Will see how this goes. The break is on from Today until the 4th of May. Biggest disappointment so far condo pools are all closed 😅

#circuitbreaker Day 2. More rules, I think? Less clarity. But yeah just stay home. Ordered baking supplies, have made scones so far... discovered oven in new flat runs very hot 🥵

#circuitbreakersg Day 8 today I watched Picard, did a yoga class (I also did some work 😅) no baking. Is this what they call balance? Tan is fading at a rapid pace. Might need to take up running to spend time outside. This will definitely go well...

We’ve been told we’re WFH until the end of June 2021 at Google. My “life” home, friends, day to day for 2+ years is in Singapore. Do I go back to NZ? More friends + family and minimal COVID. Or stay. I flip flop in this daily.

It’s weird being home, but not quite home yet. MIQ is a strange place. Not bad, and far more freedom than the SG version. But quirks 😅

Day 7 in NZ, halfway! Honestly hasn’t been too bad. Staff are awesome. It would definitely drag more if you weren’t working remote.

Does anyone else hate receiving voice notes? No one monologues for 4 minutes in a conversation, why would I want to hear that... get to the point and text it. Rant over.

One perk of month long mini lockdown has been a very easy month away from alcohol. I will very likely fall off the wagon spectacularly as soon as 🥂 brunch happens. But god do I love the hangover free weekend mornings. Must figure out how to do both…
