A Life in Black and White

am not your usual lady in the neighbourhood. i could be fun-loving and ambitions blazing, yet chilling with a good book in hand. loves audrey hepburn movies, lemon-lime-&-bitters, vintage anything and furniture. am not one effortlessly impressed. i see my goals, my dreams and the enjoyment would lie not merely in the success at the end of the road but in this journey of life. livin` it, lovin` it, keepin` it real. i travel alone, i travel light, in my 20`s - la vie est belle!

de integro

Work hasn't been easy. Well, not the work per se, but more of the uncontrollables that make it quite mentally exhausting. The firm's a good place to be. I have been reflecting for weeks now. A gentle reminder for me to count my blessings - really hasn't been easy getting to where I am. A whole year of search, coupled with the many rounds of trials I underwent, guess it made getting to the end bit and to where I am now a lot sweeter...and really, I am not about to give up.

Have given it a lot of thought, after a few rounds of online shopping and many diamonds later, R and I have decided to work towards what we want to achieve. At least there's comfort in knowing that our plans are more concrete now. It's a matter of strict discipline and focus for a couple of years.

Whoever did say that smart, independent women won't be able to balance it all, it is all a matter of never say never. And thanks to R for showing me the "why did i marry her?" article on Today newspaper this afternoon. It really put everything into perspective. Here's to those who think strong women should be frowned upon - it's your loss, not ours :)
