I guess when life gets a little too comfortable, you’re being thrown some lemons to spice things up a little. But that’s how life never gets too boring because there are always challenges for you to navigate through. At my last check up last Wednesday, I received the most horrible of news. I had gained weight which was good, but…

life with GD (part 2)
I am slowly learning to accept my condition. While it is a quite a hassle to change my food intake schedule, I try to find and focus on the positive points in this whole exercise of monitoring my blood sugar. Although I’m told to only take and record down my blood sugar readings twice a week, I’m doing it for…
life with GD
I meant to blog earlier about the last baby seminar I attended, but things got a little busy for me. By the time I was ready to write, I got hit by some bad news. I had gone for the Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) and the results weren’t good. I am diagnosed with gestational diabetes. While I was half prepared…
nippon ga daisuki dayo
日本! *clap clap clap* 日本! *clap clap clap* Anyone who knows me, knows that I adore Japan and Japanese culture. There is something mysterious and moving about Japan that sweeps you off your feet, and pretty soon you find yourself being caught up in this dynamic culture. From the timeless beauty of olden traditions to the upbeat modern life, there’s just…
having faith
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders, let me walk upon the waters, wherever you will call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander, and my faith will be made stronger in the presence of my saviour. — Hillsong United “Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)” I just wrote an entry in my other blog about prayer and faith,…
SG50 funpack
The funpack is usually only given to National Day Parade spectators, but because this year is special — Singapore’s 50th birthday — and everything also SG50, every household gets a funpack. First, it’s good to note that this year’s bag is a canvas tote bag. Feels thick and of good quality. Even has a zip. Second, there are a couple of designs printed…
see you again someday, my friend
Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is to check my phone. The usual…Whatsapp, LINE, Facebook, etc. Social media has indeed made the world a little smaller; news reaches us a lot faster. Except, I really didn’t want to wake up to this piece of sad news. I wish it were some cruel joke or rumour…
mummy to baby
I haven’t been blogging here much recently, but that’s because I’m busy enjoying my pregnancy and blogging at my other blog — MUMMY TO BABY. XD This is my first time trying out writing with a theme. It’s pretty much a blog that shares information about pregnancy and parenting. A lot of baby-related stuff there. This will still be running…
finding the time to invest
I have been a full-time housewife for a while now. While most would assume that I’m living it up, I’m actually gaining knowledge on personal finance and investment. Of course, I still find the time to do a lot of leisure things that I wouldn’t be able to do previously. During the day, I read finance blog articles and one…
three’s not a crowd
Finally. I’ve been waiting to do this for a long time now. Having observed the first trimester wait, I proudly announce that hubby and I are expecting our first child. This was my little announcement via Instagram and Facebook: Unfortunately, some didn’t understand this picture. I think it would have been clearer with shoes, but we haven’t bought any baby…
