Good riddance 2012

The year I was stretched in every way beyond what I thought was possible.

Am marvelling that I'm here today, alive and strong and bidding farewell to a year that had been so merciless and unkind. Too many times, I thought that there's no imaginable way I could cope. Too many losses, too much grief. Too overwhelmed. Then God jumps in for the rescue and I make it.

I hope this nasty chapter is truly concluded with the close if the year. I don't know where my ship is ducking next but I'm at peace knowing who is on board with me as we set sail again to unchartered waters. Never been more ready to see any year go.

Never embraced the dawn of the new era more than now.

Thank you Lord.

7 December

I woke up today from yet another nightmare.

Fresh out of my slumber, I thought I was getting out of bed to go across the street to Pret a manger. I expected to be greeted by fumes that smelled like fresh sewage water and I expected to have to jostle in the streets, squinting through neon lights and yah, thought I was in HK.

Imagine the disappointment when reality told me otherwise.

I cannot stand living in Singapore any longer and I have to have to go.
