Blending in

Mandatory husband and wife shot in front of Eiffel Tower.

We miss London and Paris so much. Awww....we can never get enough of these two beautiful countries.

Be courageous

When I was little, I always wished to grow up, to be an adult sooner.

I realised that it is getting more difficult as I get older.

As I get older, more things need to be learnt.

Listen to the elders

Had small talk today with M over lunch. We were talking about listening to our parents/elders' advices.

People generally do not take in advice, sometimes, even good advice.

I start to examine myself. How often do I really take someone's advice and actually listen to their advice and not merely hearing? How often do I actually embrace it? Then, I realised, many times, I did listen but I did nothing about it. I would make up all sorts of excuses for not following the advice and worse, I debate about it. This had become a habit, a very bad habit.

Let go, let God

It's not easy to let go of what I used to be and what I used to have, especially on the worldly possession. This year, I have learnt so much through the process of letting go and trusting in God's provision.

Before started my own family middle this year in Malaysia, I was working as a scientist in Singapore. I loved my work, especially when it gave me so much opportunities to learn and to grow my scientific knowledge/techniques as well as career prospect. I loved the projects which gave me a lot of satisfaction every time I completed them. Boss and colleagues were nice to work with as well (although not all the time ;P ). I was nominated for promotion and would have been promoted this year if I did not leave the job. I was at my most comfortable state already.

Everything happens for a reason - Rejection

Thus far, no news of employment yet. Sigh, this can be demoralising, but......

Sharpie Therapy

Slowly settling in. 

Adjusting to new environment.

I have to believe that it is possible.
