Reason For Living

It certainly has been a while since I last blogged. After 27 months in Perth, we've fallen into a routine, especially during weekdays. During Masterchef season, I would rush home to catch airing episodes without fail. Now that the season is over, I'm back to the gym even if I finish work late. Speaking of that, I'm finally doing 6 km jogs on the treadmill which is a milestone for me. I hope to get to 10 km someday. My Saturdays are pretty packed too. I have yoga every Saturday & discussion meetings every other Saturday. I'll be planning where to go & which new restaurant to try on Sundays which is why I haven't found time to blog.

I've already planned our next camping trip seeing that we haven't really camped in a year. We stayed in chalets but I don't count that as camping. Itinerary has already been typed out, tickets for a few attractions already booked & paid for. 2 fine dining restaurants reservations in the region have already been made. So much so that hubs asked me, "Are we camping or fine dining?" Lol. Absolutely looking forward to it. I love travelling. Back in Sg, we'll go on holidays up to twice a year. Now all my annual leave is saved up for Christmas shutdown & trips back to Sg. I suppose I can skip going back a year & use the 2 weeks to go somewhere else. But my parents & my dogs (Puggy & Wang) are getting old. They're far more important than going on holidays. Perhaps I can plan to go somewhere next Christmas which still leaves me 2 weeks to go back to Sg. Some serious plannings need to take place.

Hubs sometimes say I spend too much. You know, we need to rid ourselves of the illusion that we have all the time in the world. Today is never guaranteed, much less tomorrow. Something can happen in a split second & your life can be over as you know it. If you feel like having an expensive meal, go eat it. If you feel like trying something new, by all means go try it. As long as you're not doing any harm or spending money you don't have, why not? I didn't come here to repeat my life in Sg. To work & work & work & die. It's about the experiences in between & the memories you create together.
