Hi, I'm Back!

I have not been updating this religiously. So I do not know where and how to start. I was reminded by a friend that there weren't any updates for quite sometimes already and when I logged in, it was indeed long. There is this inertia and it's really hard to continue. I dunno what I should blog on or where I should start now. The last post was when I was still in Beacon, when I was still on a 'Single' status, when I was still living back home in Bukit Panjang, when I have not gotten my Post Graduate Diploma...

Today, I'm no longer in Beacon. In fact, I'm being attached to a new school soon. I completed my Post Graduate Diploma and I'm married happily. But I'm living in Seng Kang which I am still adapting to...

Many kinds of mixed feelings within me because logically, many things happened within these many months when everything became new. I'm still learning how to be tolerant and patient to my husband and in-laws. I would say they are really nice peeps but different habits and cultures may cause some queasy moments. I still miss my family and my dog which Ben may not understand. Nothing changes for him but everything changes for me. He's still living in his neighbourhood, living with his parents, same kind of pampered treatments and even gained a wife. But to me, I felt alone at times because I miss my dog, my family, my old school and even my neighbourhood. The times when I have to clean my room, change the bedsheets, wash my clothes and iron my clothes (which I absolutely detest!) reminds me of my wonderful mum the most. I did not have to do all these when I'm home. Guess I am quite affected by all these when emo period hits.

Over here, I learnt to adapt and adhere to a new lifestyle. I need to eat breakfast, I need to drink Ginseng and chicken essence, all of these which I do not usually do it. Not that I'm complaining that it is no good but it seems that I do not have any choices at times. I know some things are good for me but it's not within my routine YET. I miss my mum's food. My MIL cooks well but it's just not my kind taste because I am a choosy eater. It's my fault, not anyone's... Not that I want to make my husband feel bad because I know there's nothing much he can do but I just hope he can empathized with me, which he has been doing well so far. I really hope that my home will be here soon so hopefully, I will feel more comfortable? Hopefully by next year 1st quarter! =)

Anyway, as for career, I have graduated from my intense course in NIE. I tot I would die there since I was also preparing for my wedding then. But it seems that I can handle stress much more than I tot. I am pretty happy with my results with the efforts that I had put into. I am now posted to Fernvale Primary School and I no longer enjoy morning strolls to my work place unlike the past. Despite being in Seng Kang too, it still takes me about 30 minutes to come home as I need to change the LRT lines. LRT within LRT... How sad is this man! But seems that the school is fine, still trying to know the colleagues but they seemed to have their own bunch of cliques already so might be quite tough. I miss the interactive board and laptops in Beacon though. I'm trying to adapt using markers to teach.

Marriage life is going on well. Ben and me are still very much like before, acting childish and behaving like boy-girl friend. So far, he really has been a very good bf and husband, just need to be more sensitive haha! (if he is reading) We do not really argue so everything is quite peaceful between us. Life is simple and good. Things fall into place nicely so far.

Ok, I'll continue again soon cos my eyes are really closing soon. I'll gather and organise my tots to pen down systematically again. Till then, cheers! =D
