the other long weekend, we drove up to Kajang 2 and visited z’s 1st completed project!! and yup, i was being the embarrassing proud wife - oooo what’s that, take photo, stand there, smile properly 📷📷📷 but of course he was being super humble, camera shy and just don’t like being in the lime light (introvert). haha! he had spent 5 years investing into this project - from drawing, consulting, chairing meeting and project managing and warlah! it’s now almost ready for people to call it their home 🏡 it feels significant because we don’t get to share a lot of our work on a regular basis. being in occ health doesn’t give you the juicy greys anatomy stories and his work will take at least 5 years to complete, so when they’re finally done, seeing all the hard work materialize, and being able to share that, is priceless. #proudwifemoment #architectswife #makesmunssohappy

BIG shoutout to this amazing lady @serenalim !!! i am extremely blown away by her love and her willingness to go the extra mile for others. i arrived Kuching with a mild headache and without any second thoughts, she offered to bring me paracetamol (🤗). then, as it came closer to dinner time, i felt worse and had a big puke 🤢 🤮🤮 just before heading out the door. i didn’t even get to finish my sentence of perhaps having room service instead of going out, she just said - “I’ll do what is needed. you just rest” 😍😍 i almost cried hearing that. 30 mins later, she rocked up with 2 packets of porridge (that she told the aunty to go without oil) and 2 brand new bowls (because take away porridge doesn’t come in an easy-to-consume-takeaway-container) and some medicines! how detailed and thorough can she get!!! super blessed by this wonder woman and her beautiful heart. still scratching my head thinking how or why or what, that i ended up in such good hands and that i was so well looked after! i look extra terrible but who cares, gonna give honour where honour is due! @serenalim, i’m believing for an incredible season for you! come to KL, it’s an ocean, i promise you! #makesmunssohappy #noimnotpreggo #airasianasilemakgaveittome #oceaniscalling

couple portraits that we caught on my phone on day 2 of heading back to our ancestral village in Chao San, Guang Zhou, China. #makesmunssohappy #satufamilybalikkampung #ihavegoodlookingfamily

they are my everything 💗 📷: last weekend over my cousin @marcochua_production ‘s wedding! as i grow older, @sookyee_see noticed that my eye bags are sagging, and i couldn’t help but also to notice the unforgiving signs of aging on my parents, my relos and how quickly the little ones in the family have grown up. we dont (and we can’t) have everything as per our wants, but God knows the desires of our hearts and He gives us the best to walk through life’s ups and downs with. For that, i am incredibly thankful and beyond blessed. #satufamily #makesmunssohappy #whoneedsweddingentertainers #noneckdoublechin

last month, i had the privilege of heading down to a medical conference (as a part of work) in SG and i was so blessed to somehow manage to meet @sanneski ,@bibimbap and jun kit despite our crazy schedules. i also got to meet my other colleagues from around APAC. i think if there were couple of things i took out of this 4-day-trip would be - 1) we live in a day where technology rapidly and radically changes our lifestyle. make it work for your benefit. 2) build your resilience. you’re in it to win it, so you’ll definitely need more than IQ and EQ. 3) you know it’s a special kind of friendship when you can pick it up from where you left it, even though it was only for a 30minutes dinner. 4) singapore - you’re not too bad 5) make friends, create memories and live that story #makesmunssohappy #sghasubershare #soclean #soefficient #somuchfood

z and i were talking about dreams and what our future may look like - if we were stay in kl vs moving overseas. how our kids would grow up. what is the call of God upon our lives. what our jobs would look like. what are the potential challenges. what would our home look like. . . . and then we paused. . . we both agreed that for what it's worth, in this foreseeable season / near future, despite the low pays, the long working hours, and the occasional struggle in fitting in, our families are definitely worth staying in kl for. "it's nice to get to take chong foo to church" "and the dinner movie hang outs" "and like now that you're sick, it's nice that your mum can just call and check on you." . . . 📷: @seechongfoo21 's 25th birthday #makesmunssohappy

rainy gloomy afternoon #makesmunssohappy!! . . . couple of days ago, something traumatic happened at work that i couldn't help but to keep thinking about the "should have" and "what ifs". i was stressed to the core, almost wanted to quit and i knew i had to have a little debrief with someone. thanks to some wise counsel and prayers from 2 of my closest medical friends, i'm much MUCH better. thank you @hotato and @janetleungtingting !! . . . Janet reminded me of one really important thing that i haven't done in the longest time - to do something that "makesmunssohappy". in melbourne it was easy and cheap to find those things - walk in the park, go for coffee dates, watch and fall asleep over a movie at home, chats over desserts, babysit close friends' bub and the list goes on. and immediately after janet pointed out that, i realized i haven't taken time out to do something that i love in a long while. and so literally just then, as it rained, z and i made a little blanket fort in our living room and we (i) listened to rain. he fell asleep in split seconds whilst i wiggled my toes, breathing in the humidity and allowed the melodies of the rain to serenade me. all was still. all was peaceful. and all is good. . . . it is well with my soul. #quietmomentswithdaddyGod #happilimathome
