merry christmas.

Hello guys.. Holiday is finally here! It's a week away from Christmas.. How is your Christmas preparation going?
Although I am not having a fancy family holiday, but I am all excited more than usual for this Christmas. I don't know exactly why, but this month makes me full of new spirit.. I am naturally being more hopeful this month.

It's a shame to admit that I've been being so skeptical for too long. In my defense, it's because life has been playing me all around last year and this year. Whenever there's something good happens, there will always be something bad following...always. I can say it's 50-50 this year, I couldn't enjoy anything fully because it could turn into something unfortunate, made me really cautious. Although to be fair, this year has a lot more awesomeness than last year, which I am very thankful about.

Maybe that's why I am full of hopes this Christmas. Our family has had enough of experiencing bad things during these past couple of years. I can't wait for this year to end. I am hoping a new year full of certainty of goodness. :)
It's a good start that I actually have been feeling a strong positive energy since last month that's still lingering a bit longer until now. And I hope it will go on much much longer, if not forever. I hope Santa hears me on this one. ;)
Have yourself a Merry Christmas everyone! Let's make a wish! :D

new chapter.

So, here I am. Being someone's wife now.
Unbelievable how a scattered mind like me managed to step into marriage life. I feel like (nearly) everything becomes neutral again.. Although there's still not many significant differences in the way we live our everyday life (yet), but I can feel like we were placed back to the starting point and given opportunity to see the journey ahead with a clearer view than before.
Perfect timing to sort out our goals & purpose in life as one, rearrange our plans, and readjust our sails. I do hope we will catch the wind that will take us through many interesting adventures and bring us to the places we've always dreamed of :)

About my wedding, I asked God to let my wedding day be a memorable one for everyone..and He answered it exactly.
The whole last week before D day was a mix of stress and fun. Stress because of some unexpected things happened, and fun because we reunited with our close friends from Melbourne...they were the ultimate stress reliever!
And on the wedding day itself, a mix of panicking dramas and a surprising happy ending. Everything was in fast-forward mode. We couldn't really remember what happened in each moment exactly. Those were the best memories I've had in my entire life but they passed in the blink of an eye. So I've been depending on the photos and videos that our friends and families took, enough to recall the highlights of that day. And ultimately (still waiting) the ones from photographers and videographer we hired. I will write a separate post when my wedding pictures are done.

I am not sure what my marriage is going to be like exactly, but judging from the wedding day itself, I am pretty sure that it won't be a boring one. Also thanks to my moody self that will definitely add more spices to the marriage. I hope my hubby is ready to rock and roll the hell out of it :D
