Taking a Breather...

It has been an extremely overwhelming day today. That might even be an understatement.

So many changes happening recently. We've finally started renovating our rooms and that's causing me so much anxiety. I guess when there's so much change happening in one's life all at once everything becomes chaotic. Especially if that someone is like me who loves being in control over EVERYTHING. Gaaaah.

Work has been crazy. Fun…but crazy. I'm so proud of the team that we have now. We're slowly growing and that on it's own is pretty crazy. Add to that the fact that today my partner and I finally signed the lease on a new space. Eeeep. Here's to bigger and better things for us. Can't have done it without everyone in the team of course. Those guys are amazing. That is an understatement. Aaaaaand, of course we can't have done any of it without God getting us through it. Seriously, every time I feel overwhelmed, much like right now, I take a breather and pray about it.

Let me talk about my team a little. They're such characters and it's so much fun having them around because it makes everything easier. Not only because there are people to share the load but because they're such a happy bunch. There are random afternoons when we get surprised they suddenly burst into song, the most awkward of songs, which genuinely adds to their charm. I love them!

We started the year a bit slow which had me worried but once things got busy…as they say, When it rains, it pours. Just another testament to God's unlimited blessings.

But let's take a step back from all that stress and realise that although everything is all up in the air right now it's all a lead up to a whole lot of positive things.

I'm baaaack…!

So…I find it funny that every time I tell myself I'm going to start posting on my blog more frequently I always end up NOT posting on my blog. It's like I do things just to contradict myself. Like yoga, I keep telling myself tom is the day I am going to get my ass to the studio and I'm still here. Fat and sluggish and waaaaay inflexible. Oh yoga, how I miss you.

You might be wondering…Why'd I all of a sudden decide it was time for me to write a blog today…well, because I'm being honest here, I'm procrastinating. Don't tell my partner, although I don't think she'd mind since she's currently making her second cup of coffee after successfully butchering the first one she made. We're kissing productivity goodbye…I'm kidding.

How has life been? My life has been filled with work, work and a little bit of fun on the side. I'm not complaining. On the contrary I'm having the awesomest time. We're actually in the process of making our dreams come true and it may be a bit scary, ok, I lie it's REALLY scary but it's worth it. We just have to keep praying and of course working hard. Harder than we've ever worked in our lives.

In the more personal aspect of life. Been married a little more than a year now and it's been sooooo much fun, and that is why you should always marry your best friend who may or may not think he's funnier than he actually is. :/ hehe…

Last year was heartbreaking as well because I lost my car…well, not really lost. It decided it wanted to be a submarine and well, it's still partial car partial who knows what. :( And as we wait on the final verdict…I just have to live with driving my husbands car and he just has to live with the fact that it might not be in such safe hands. LOL. I KID!!! I'm a super safe driver, well except when backing up, but that's a story for another day.

And as the brand new year starts, Chinese New Year pa lang so pwede pa humabol! :D I guess I should put my resolutions in writing somewhere…and this year instead of making resolutions let me write down the things that I want to be able to do by this year.


  • I want to have a constant yoga practice. Be it in a studio, at home or at the gym. I need to get back into yoga. My husband told me recently, in a not so nice tone might I add, that I should get back to yoga because I complained less when I was still practicing. Soooo…yeah. 
  • Must make actual edible meals for the husband because all my married friends keep posting their kitchen masterpieces it kinda hurts already. Ahem Tin, ahem!
  • Invest more!
  • Spend more time with my family…because every year this should be a priority
  • Branch out and always challenge myself, work wise and personal life wise. 
I think 5 is enough…because let's face it…I'll probably not do the cooking thing and the exercise part is still a little iffy. LOL.
