2011

As 2012 draws near, I would like to continue the tradition of highlighting the special events which happened in the year 2011! This is the most exciting year yet, and I am so looking forward to what 2012 brings me! It is probably hard to beat 2011 looking at these events!

January: I probably didn’t blog about this, but in January the Frontline opened with a blast during the CNY period and it was the busiest time of my life!

February: I join the Best Kiss Photo Contest organized by PETS magazine and won a photography session with Barley! But sadly, I didn’t manage to claim the prize! Boo! In February, SQ got engaged! We also celebrated our proposal anniversary at Sentosa and USS in this month!

March: Other than wedding planning, March was pretty uneventful. In March we popped by Malacca for a short break and got our Submission of Marriage Certificate to HDB deferred after several hassles and tussles with the customer service manager with poor service!

April: CW got engaged in April and we got our house key on 18 April! It is also the month where a series of unfortunate events happened during our pre-wedding photoshoot!

May: In May, I signed up for an 8 lessons Acrylic painting course at NAFA and totally enjoyed it! I was also picked to attend a conference in Jakarta for work! May is a painful month where I had my first wisdom tooth removed! Our home renovation also kicked in full force in May!

June: Our company brought us on a retreat to Shanghai – Hangzhou and it was a crazy shopping trip with all the girls! Next year, if we do get to go for a retreat, we must drag along the boys to be our porter! Haha. In June, Sue Ann got engaged! Finally all of us SSSS girls are officially off the shelves! Haha

July: I finally completed my painting class and my final painting is something I will always be proud off! Heh.

August: The highlight of my career! I won the “Young Executive of the Year” award which is an industry wide award and appeared on a news article looking all fat and frumpy. Bad picture! In August, I was also “promoted” to a new role and given greater responsibilities! August is also my favourite month, because it’s my birthday!

September: I was selected to visit Melbourne / Sydney on a study trip and to attend another conference! It is also my first time on a helicopter ride! We had our first Chinese wedding custom, Gou Da Li in September!

October: Our wedding on the 15th October 2011! A day we will never forget! I totally enjoyed myself at our church wedding! We also packed our bags and head to Italy for our honeymoon!

November: We set up our first Christmas tree and Barley turned three in November! Thank you for all the love and joy you brought us Barley! November month is Jason’s birthday too! Love you dear!

December: It’s a month of caroling, feasting and partying! It is also a month of hard work with the festive approaching!

I will miss the challenges and opportunities, the grace and mercy, the pain and joy, and all the love received in 2011! Thank you Mum(s), Dad(s), Sister, Brother, Grandma, Jason, friends, colleagues, bosses and everyone who made my 2011 so eventful!

2012, here I come!

I am back from Italy! There are so many things to blog about and I have no idea where and how to start! I am just going to go random with my blogging! Hang in there if you want to look at the most beautiful church wedding I have ever attended (HAHA), random DIY projects I did for the weddings and our Italy honeymoon!

Hello lovelies! It has been a while! I know I know! I am so blessed recently and there is a huge huge news to share which I kept for the past week! Will be updating here soon! See ya!

Taking a break from the countless posts about Hangzhou, to share a great piece of news! I got 3rd for the Marimo contest and won myself two Marimos in a beautiful apple bottle!

As promised I wanted to share this Marimos with my reader and I have picked Joieil as the winner of this Marimo! It wasn’t a difficult decision because it seems like most people don’t fancy Marimos! What a pity!

So Joieil! Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a pair of beautiful Marimos! I hope it brings you great joy everyday while looking at it!

It has been a long long while since I last blogged. I know. I failed as a blogger. Work life is getting hectic with the new role expansion. My home does not have a computer yet (will be moving this very PC over and I can’t wait to get my own Mac). We have added a few additions to my new place and I will share more in the next few posts! Will also continue with my Shanghai – Hangzhou posts and other random posts! See ya!

Sorry for being out of action! It was a crazy week with all the moving and what not and I’ll quickly post up some entries to keep you entertained!

SSS told me that I’ve been blogging too much about my home renovation! Sorry if I seem to ignore my other loyal readers who love my other more interesting posts! I just need to document my renovation journey somewhere! I’ll try to keep to one reno post a week! Good reminder from SSS though! Haha.

I am having blog diarrhea and I can’t stop it! Hee! Enjoy friend!

I have a million things to share, USS pictures, our trip to Melaka, our wedding updates and home updates among all the random thoughts ! But I just can’t get my butt seated to blog! Grrrr. I want my life back. My blogging life back.

Blogging keeps me sane and reader’s comment makes my day! Sigh, how I wish I can spend more time for you!
