FOODGAWKER!!


Such a foodspiration!


Who the hell would give up food? The whole experience of buying ingredients, making them with your own hands and effort makes eating food a glorious event everyday. I dont understand how some girls stay away from really good looking food just to stay in their skinny jeans.


note to self: I, Sarah Salim, will never ever give up food. enjoy every bit, every taste and every crumb that comes along every meal. I will of course, eat in moderation while indulging.

OOOOOOMY GOD!

It's been more than a month since my last post. I was enjoying work I guess. Then I had my Europe trip to plan and prepare. And now that I'm back from that long awaited trip(2 weeks past really fast I tell ya!), reality hits hard and I question myself again.....

I keep asking myself, is it worth taking a quite high paying job but the environment is potential boring assholicly and DRY or an average paying job that give you more self satisfaction and drive to be a thriving designer in a more lively environment than the former option? I feel like my mind is split into 3 now. First path, to take masters, second is to concentrate on becoming a successful designer and lastly, I need to save up and get ready for marriage. I want to combine everything together but one of the path needs sacrifice.

I know I can still take masters after I'm married. At least that way I can travel overseas with Khai with ease. However, to save for that marriage which is suppose to happen in 2 years' time, I need a good paying job that foots the bills plus marriage funds. If I take the average paying job, I'd be more happy but I need to work extra hard, perhaps have some sideline jobs in order to save enough.

All in all, I keep Astrid's words close to my heart. That, money is always isnt enough. It will never be. But self satisfaction and drive to be a great designer or visual communicator is what money can't buy. I realise that now. I should opt for the average pay and be totally happy rather than taking a fat cheque home and feeling miserable.

I should live in the moment. Money is a factor in life. But I suggest don't make it priority in life. If it is, one can never be satisfied. I want to be happy in life cause I love my job, designing great things in my job. I don't want to be designing rubbish even tho I'm paid a lot for it.

More happy thoughts. I must stay positive.
;) Yippeee! On a lighter note, I will go back to the Eiffel with my Ayul. Definitely.
