2015: A brand new year

There goes 2014. To some of our friends, it was a fantastic year but for us, it was like a roller coaster ride.

In the beginning of the year, I lost my granny. It was devastating and we flew back to SG to see her off the last time. At that point of time, I wasn't having the best of time at work either. 

As time passed, things turned out better. Everything seems bright and we were living happily. We went to tour New York and Washington DC, had some fun times. Weeks later, good news came and we were moving to another level, being parents. However, our dream was short lived. The little one left. Our world seemed to collapse. We had never felt so hurt before and it hurt even more as I was helpless while Ju was suffering in pain. 

Fortunately, Ju was as brave as Xena and as strong as Wonderwoman. She recovered fast from this setback and moved on from there. Now coming to the new year, we have our new resolutions. 

1. Live healthy
Life is u predictable. It is important for us to continue living healthily. I have my own workout regime and definitely I'll drag Ju along if needed.

2. Work life balance
Work here might not be as tough but I will definitely take some break to enjoy our stay here in the states. Ju's parents will be here again in June and we are planning a trip to the East but this time will be Florida. 

3. The little one
The first one linked to this. To have a little one, we must stay healthy! I'm sure we are ready to be parents and we will be!

Merry Xmas

It snowed heavily on the late night of silent night. It was cold and windy. It felt like our house can no longer hold on as the wind slam into it. 

The wind last till Christmas and the cold remained. We had a mini gathering at our house. I said gathering instead of celebration because there was no gift exchange or any presence of Christmas. 
The only presence I had was Ju bought me a gift. A Zune device. I had never heard of the brand but was content to have it. 

We really enjoyed this simple gathering. Few more days to New Year, time for new resolution!

Wonderwoman

Despite what happened last week, Ju was very strong. She was in great pain after taking the medicine and I felt helpless. There's nothing much I can do except just staying beside her and look at her fighting the pain. I admire her strong mentality and I believe there are not many girls her age can be as strong as her. That's why she's my wonderwoman!



P.S. I'm not really good at editing. haha..

29

29, we lost him. It could have been earlier  and we did not want to know. It's hard to accept and it's bleeding profusely inside us. 

It hurts even more when I see Ju in pain. Why did such thing happen to us? I felt so helpless. 

It was out this morning. It looked totally fine. The hands and legs were formed but why your heart stopped? No reason... There's no reason. 

We have to be strong. Stronger than ever to overcome this pain. Time will heal that deep wound in our hearts.

Devastating

It could be God's blessing in disguise to recall him/her back to Heaven or it could be just fate that he/she just can't be ours. It's devastating. We had close to 2 months of joy and suddenly it's gone. Words can't describe how upset we are. We will move on and definitely, Ju must recover well.

Thanksgiving

Few more days to Thanksgiving, shopping list is increasing. But of course, the main priority is to get a good outerwear for Mummy-to-be. Loves from Dad to be.

Kyrie, Love, Lebron @ Utah

After checking the Jazz schedule in NBA, we spent no time and bought two tickets to watch the Cavaliers visit to Utah. 

Utah, the nearest place to watch NBA, is 5 hours away from Mountain Home. I have never looked forward to drive to Salt Lake City as much as this one. Never in my life I would imagine that I could watch Lebron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love live! 

The game began at 7pm but Ju and I were there early to take pictures around the arena. It is Ju's first NBA game but she wasn't as excited at first. She assumed it was the same as the D-League till the game enters the second half. 

The arena was packed and the crowd were awesome with most supporting the home team and only a handful supported the Cavaliers. We managed to catch some close glimpse of Kyrie Irving who was training hard way before the game. His hardworking paid off as he was the top performer for the Cavaliers. Lebron's performance was below par even though he got them back to the game late in last quarter and score last 6 crucial points. The game was thrilling as the Jazz and Cavaliers were tied at 100 with 3.9 seconds to go and Jazz had the possession. Gordon Hayward took a pass and score a buzzer beater to win the game for Jazz. 

The whole arena roared as if the Jazz had won the NBA finals! This game worth every penny we spent! Love it!
