Moving.

For everyone in (and out of) Singapore, I thank you (online and in advance) for the 6 wonderful years I have had since my return from Tassie. Thank you for all the good times spent. Thank you for the wedding invitations. Thank you for the breakfast/lunch/coffee/dinner/movie outings. Thank you for dropping by my home and spending time with me. Thank you for the continued friendship, and of course, thank you for being my friend! Certainly I will take with me all the memories I have and think of you all from time to time. Take care of yourself as I take care of mine. Hope to see YOU ALL again someday. Keep in touch. xoxo

For the third time in three months last week, I made another trip to Jakarta, possibly the shortest of time ever I've flown in and out of a city repeatedly with the purpose of visit being 'holiday'. Well, truth is, I wasn't really on holiday in Jakarta. 'holiday' was just THE word I ticked on my Arrival Card to officially declare my activities in the country. I was there to check out some properties. Similar to my previous visits in the Indonesian capital, which were about a month and two back, I also did an 'inspection' of the place and some other stuff that could help me prepare for the move.

So I am moving to Jakarta (if all is good, that is) but I don't know when exactly it is going to be. However, work is definitely being done and I can say I am about 80% ready for the move! Despite Jakarta being only about 899km or 1.5 hours of flight away from Singapore (which means some things in Singapore and Jakarta have got to be similar given the distance and geographic location, AND THEREFORE familiar to me), moving to Jakarta means a whole new world, a whole new adventure, and a whole new life to me (and of course, it brings with it a whole new set of complications too)! I've got mixed feelings about leaving my homeland, Singapore, but at the same time, I am excited for Jakarta, I CAN'T WAIT!
