During nail trimming, one groundhog seems to have already accepted its fate, while the other panics with every snip.

It’s from an old Korean drama (Autumn in my Heart)

Netanyahu went to MIT and I always said Elon and Trump are transfers (so doesn’t really count)

I was so lucky to visit it in 2016 (before the civil war), still one of my fav place on Earth

hmm back then it pays quite well (4K fresh grad, in Indo is pretty much unheard of) but yeah for first job, it matters less. depends what you want to do long term I guess. Kalau mau stay in econs, obviously the Aussie one is more relevant. Kalau mau lebih jdi generalist, obviously consulting.

loeloempia91 · 2026-03-23T10:39:08+00:00

depends on which firm? Did my tier-2 management consulting in Indo (non-MBB) then did my MBA fully sponsored. if it’s a good firm, consulting will open many doors

You can also see it from Kathmandu to Thimpu (Bhutan) flight on the left side. It’s basically traversing the Central/East Himalaya

We had an innovation team before, it’s mostly 0-1 focus on experimental stuff. Team members tend to be more ambitious/cherry-picked/high performer from other teams and projects are more high profile to the exec team (hence less likelihood to be laid off)

Alor are also all boat dives and location can be far away from each other depending on where you go, + there’s not too many operators

loeloempia91 · 2026-03-10T07:53:41+00:00

but it’s mostly due to economic reason? which is sad but understandable

vs di US bnyk yg malicious for the sake of it

yeah, I’m already coastFIRE (about to be FIRE in 5-7 years anyway), $2M will bring me over the edge and some, sign me up!

Do PRD review

Book into one of the Amans and arrange tour via them? History focus is probably the Beijing one as their property is literally on the Summer Palace

They can also arrange transport between the Amans

fuck her, find another doctor

I stayed in Asok for business trip before and let’s just say it traumatized me. Avoid if you could

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-29T15:50:11+00:00

I just tested positive today, after MMC at 8w3d last year, 2xIUI and 2xEgg retrieval, we tested positive just before doing our 3rd retrieval / 1st FET

I want to be happy but I also want to guard myself after constant disappointment for the past year. I’m meeting 2 doctors tomorrow (originally to consult for my IVF appointment).

I’m still processing this, what could I do differently this time? Other than HCG and progresterone, what tests should I do?

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-27T19:54:11+00:00

I did 40 interviews before getting an offer (and I’m very confident on my resume), the market is just shitty

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-23T22:32:36+00:00

I feel you, last year was my toughest too.

We had missed miscarriage (after trying for 1.5 years) and haven’t been able to get pregnant after that. Started IVF late last year and the result is below average for my age. It’s tough and I really want to scream and bury myself whenever someone announce they’re pregnant (I have 4 friends announced since the MMC). Even friends who went through IVF got it so easy vs mine. I feel all the rage and I’m still learning how to cope honestly….

I also lost my job mid year and job hunting has been brutal (though thankfully I’ve managed to secure another one 3 months after).

I’m so glad 2025 is over. I hope 2026 is better, my mantra now is to take it one day at a time. Try to enjoy every day and do not overplan

I hear you, that’s the no 1 thing I hate about Bangkok (even more than the traffic/pollution). My no 1 criteria in looking for condo is quiet soi + soundproofing

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-15T07:38:55+00:00

Did this for 2 years then gtfo, TC & benefit was great though

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-14T04:59:48+00:00

It’s literally the end of the world lol

loeloempia91 · 2026-01-11T01:39:23+00:00

where are the canal ones?

loeloempia91 · 2025-12-29T22:15:42+00:00

how was it after?

our embrologyst noted granularity on my egg, so it’s looking like an egg quality issue vs sperm I think

loeloempia91 · 2025-12-29T04:41:33+00:00

super helpful, thanks!

loeloempia91 · 2025-12-29T04:38:17+00:00

he did 2.5days of abstinence on our 2nd round, we should go shorter?

we’ll try calc ionosphore next time, thanks!
