shhhhhhhhhhhh... if you just be quiet for a moment you can hear it ...."clap clap clap" big applause all the way from Singapore (AMK, Marine Parade or Senkang etc)... ha ha... finally the duchess has got her blog going ... the impetus? i believe there are a few. One - in no order of priority or importance - a beautiful photo of sunset that i took about a week back which makes me realised the zillion shots that i have taken since i arrived and would like to share and of course am just living up to my trigger friendly reputation! :) ...Bali - 'the land of gods", despite all the corruption is really quite beautiful and to me on most days when i actually stop to get out of the little office i am in, i see mother nature at work. i feel at home being so close to the greens and the blues. I find myself grinning silly sometimes with my bali kopi or bintang or gin tonic in hand :) ... some say to me "but it hasn't changed for the last 200 years!" ... i guess perhaps that IS the beauty of this place...
the second push factor to start the blog, hmmm... probably the upcoming wedding ... a sure way to keep your friends updated. i must say there is a handful who seems much more excited and kan cheong than i am ha ha... thank you for your enthusiasm, ideas, and advice! Especially to crankygirl and two of the mum-to-be. i look forward to our next the msn chats!
Now.. i was thinking the best way to back track to the past 6 months would be to swarm the blog with pictures and more pictures :). i mean i have been chatting and updating most of you (i think) of all the adjustments and nightmares and grief and days of doing nothing and just geting a tan ... blah blah... "so slack" would be what cranky girl would say :) ha ha.. i will promise from this day forth, you get to see a posting well at least once a week? ha ha...
i believe there was a third push factor as well... it's the big three O this year :)... and i think i am getting forgetful (with or without the occasional inebriation i must add!) ... time passes too quickly these days and i just can't seem to keep up with the memories anymore! ha ha... if you ask me what did i had for breakfast this morning i probably go "er...." for the next 5 minutes :)... i decided to start this blog to remind myself of the good times and bad, to remind myself not to take for granted a beautiful sunset, seeing dolphins bobbing up and down the sea, experiencing a wonderful dive, all the sunshine i get giving me my to-die-for tan (ha ha ha), having wonderful friends, supportive siblings and my adorable hubby-to-be who has this incredible power to take all my shit!
To old memories and new ones we be making ... :)
