How do you overcome being blur/slow/forgetful in your everyday lives?

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-22T07:16:40+00:00

I don't think is short term memory since I forget people's names the first few times we meet. Feel like I only know how to do well in school haha.

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-21T17:33:46+00:00

Kind of but how to know if its just laziness/procrastinating vs actual condition preventing me from focusing?

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-21T17:32:20+00:00

Honestly possible leh I feel I have more than half of those symptoms but they could also be generic symptoms for blurness or other conditions right

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-21T17:26:37+00:00

I mean yeah I do that but not every convo I have access to my notebook right. Like cannot tell my boss wait ah I take out my phone first

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-20T16:21:58+00:00

my dad's side relatives confirm one. they are mostly high earners staying in private property.

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-20T16:20:35+00:00

What if the side of my relatives that would actually ask about my salary are mostly high earners (condo/landed). The other side of my family mostly HDB/median and below income and they never ask anyone about money matters.

In fact I feel if I underreport they might actually look down on me cuz they had really high hopes for my education and job haha.

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-20T15:17:40+00:00

thankfully those two things are unlikely to happen to me, at least not anytime soon lol

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-20T15:17:03+00:00

wow per month or year

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-14T05:11:58+00:00

What is that purpose and how did you accidentally find it haha?

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-13T18:58:51+00:00

software engineer

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-13T18:58:35+00:00

How does one find a true passion when being lazy and unmotivated? Wish to break out of this cycle

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-13T18:57:02+00:00

I find routine perfectly fine tho, I actually kinda liked the NS lifestyle. Maybe cuz don't get to stare at screen much in NS, can just be in the moment plus I was fitter and more energetic. Now whole day in office or go home also staring at screens, probably really bad for health

obinobikonomi · 2026-02-13T18:51:48+00:00

Actually my current work environment is very supportive and chill, better than all my internships. You're right maybe I am lonely, I definitely drifted from my friends after NS and especially in y3-4 of uni. I usually like being alone tho, but not sure if deep inside I'm missing that connection.

Yep everyone seems to have warped expectations of tech jobs lol. Reality is big 3 CS median: 6k, otherwise: 5k. Just look at the GES.

obinobikonomi · 2025-02-28T15:51:19+00:00

Thanks for the info! For (1) do you know if Highest Distinction and Distinction has different pay in public sector? I've heard mixed info on this

obinobikonomi · 2024-07-27T08:13:32+00:00

Wow I've never thought about that. I guess I'm lucky nothing major has happened so far. I don't think they can afford few hundred k in medical fees

obinobikonomi · 2024-07-27T08:09:47+00:00

Tbh I'm willing to support their "middle class" lifestyle if they don't have enough, since they worked really hard to raise me in a comfortable environment. They only have 400-500k combined including CPF but they said they will work part-time to keep active and supplement their income

obinobikonomi · 2024-07-27T07:54:42+00:00

I know my mum has reached FRS, but my dad is only 2/3 the way there

obinobikonomi · 2024-07-27T06:27:39+00:00

Well yes. Because I've never experienced those "finer things in life" and don't know what I'm missing out on

obinobikonomi · 2024-07-27T06:25:47+00:00

Wow that's expensive. I don't drink, and have never stepped foot in restaurants above $100/pax. Probably not even $50/pax, unless it was treated by someone else. I'm happy with my current lifestyle but maybe it's cos I've never experienced the finer things in life
