Hello,
I’m still here, alive and kicking. Five years older but not a lot has changed. A quick catch up from where I left off last:
- Got married (highlight: the foood! and gold plates (not real gold ofc))
- Moved to California. Our first apartment was in a hilly neighborhood. I moved on Friday night and hadn’t seen much of the landscape. Next morning I was breath taken seeing the green hills around us. The thought of a new life together with my partner in a new city etc was wonderful. I might write a separate post on just that weekend. It was magical!
- Started to love hiking. Our first year of marriage was pretty much just hiking and cooking good food.
- Survived a pandemic
- Dessert obsession. I made a new dessert pretty much every week during the pandemic.
- Changed jobs.
- Started developing an interest in birding (one more item checked off on the ‘signs you’re an introvert’ checklist)
- Visited Alaska (twice!)
- Dyed my hair - ombre Pink to Orange
- Bought a house. Year 2 of marriage was all about interviews and open houses *facepalm* how quickly responsibilities add on
- Year 3 was my DIY era. Became a painter, carpenter, plumber and artist. Fell through the ceiling once, fortunately didn’t break any bones but learnt some lessons
- Tee passed away. RIP. You’ll forever be in our hearts.
- Saw lions, cheetahs, giraffes and zebras in Africa. Tigers in Kabini and bears in Montana. Montana became my new favorite state in USA. Seeing the green landscape the first morning we drove into Yellowstone, knowing how much wildlife lived there was a core memory.
- Started taking Piano lessons. Waltz in A minor is my personal favorite now.
- Had some other losses which I may (or may not) talk about someday
- Paddle boarded in the turquoise blue waters of Maldives
- Kitty came into our lives.
I’ve been too lazy to post here. But seeing how fun it is for me to read old posts, I want to continue posting whenever I feel like it.
Bye!
