I am now in my 40s! My last blog post was in 2019, just after a post-op appendicitis removal. This last few years has been a journey of growth and discovery. I took the opportunity to reevaluate my priorities. What truly matters to me? Family, health, career, and personal fulfilment have become central themes. …

14 Feb 2019. Valentine’s Day. At the stroke of midnight, I was in a cab heading to the hospital, getting myself checked for suspected appendicitis. By the time everything was checked and confirmed, it was close to 4am, and I was in the observation ward waiting to be wheeled to my room. …

Time flies. February 2019 sees us celebrating Chinese New Year, taking time off to visit relatives and friends. As we grow older, the significance and importance of such ties grow. Without family, we will not be who we are today. 2018 went by in a relatively short time. It was a good year. There were many things to be thankful for and I am hoping that 2019 would continue in the same vein. Arrival of Baby G late last year signified a new beginning. And whatever we thought we knew, or thought that we were experts when it comes to...…

Hello 2018! 20s are the exciting times - transiting from studies to work, “the world is your oyster”, travelling the world to experience life. 30s are really about facing reality - coming to terms with where you stand in your career, your personal life, and also, about death. And I am not even halfway through my 30s, but man, this is tough. In the span of one year, I said goodbye to my Grandma, my unborn children, and my father in law. But the 30s is about facing reality, and I think compared to my younger terms, there are many...…

2017-05-07 There’s another one on it’s way! 12 December 2017 - That’s the official pop date, but it’s going to be early, and things are going to change once again! Excited - Yeah! Happy - Somewhat… Worried - definitely! We were at the clinic - waiting - and it brings back memories. Scary ones, and also happy ones. But the scary ones are always the worse. The uncertainty, the fear, and yet, within there’s always hope for a new beginning. When I first saw the scan, I was overjoyed - seeing the little one, all curled up. Assuming all goes...…

Hello 2017. Goodbye 2016. I am looking forward to 2017. I will be starting a new career, and finally after trying out different options and career paths in the last few years, I am finally embarking on one more truer to heart - and for that I am thankful. In 2016, I experienced first hand the difficulties of the construction / M&E industry. Rarely have I been pushed to my limits, but there were many instances when I felt both lost and out of depth. But there’s always a silver lining. Through the job, I found a true friend. Moving...…
