What Joy it is to be an Imperfect Human


It has been a while since I last wrote. Haven’t been myself lately. This pregnancy had been a topsy-turvy experience for me. Yes, this is my third time, but it’s different indeed. Seriously ~ lack of appetite, lots of throwing up, frequent bad headaches (more to migraines, I’d say!), major body aches, heavy eyes that I end up spending most of my 24/7 in bed and the worst, I could not stand any screens, may it be TV or laptop. My best friends were pickles, pickles and pickles. As I am at the end of the first trimester, I am feeling better and I think I can start writing again. (Yeay!!!)

Do I have lots of things to update. First, hubby’s to go for his new assignment next month. Guess where?....... Lagos, Nigeria. How long?...... Hmmmm….. Fifteen months top. So, since I am a “kenderaan berat” (that’s what my hubby calls me!), he insists that I am to stay back in Malaysia and join him next year, although I don’t mind tagging along. So, we are basically busy packing and preparing for his trip.

Next, our excitement to window shop for baby’s stuff. Gosh… We really are far behind with the latest gadgets and necessities for babies. It was really embarrassing when the salesgirls were smiling away when we were asking so many questions about each gadget. I felt so old! Ha..ha..

Anyway, I guess, these are parts of the joy of being a parent.

Perfection is boredom. Imperfection is exciting. :)
