Love from Singapore

Just received email from Adalene. It felt so nice to hear from her. Somehow friends in Singapore are so busy that they have no time to email. She is doing fine and happy voluteering. For people who chose to uproot and stay elsewhere, won;t they miss the things they have back home? She advised me to stay put here as my house lease is till MAy 2010. If I go back earlier, where to accomodate the 5 of us? She asked me to send baby to playgroup/ day care and me to get a job. Definitely that's a good option but Joe has been complaining that our budget is tight. To cut down on children's after school activities to save money? I am really sian of being a housewife whereby I have no spending power. Joe is keen on budgetting but I do not like those stuff. Life is short and why think so much that u make life miserable? Maybe for his kind of personality, he feel stressed if no life plans and for my personaity I will die fast with too much control.

Called up mum and she said everything is still the same. I am tempted to come back as I am really like fish out of water here in sydney. No sense of belonging and no friends to mingle. Going to the shops and buying things are the very basic that I get to meet other people. i can't shop everyday so that is not a good option.

Somehow I am angry sometimes that things are being stagnant here. Life is boring to tears as I am just doing housework, minding Channery and shopping. No new things to spice up my life and i am going nuts!

Anyway, if I had stay put in singapore and with Joe not around to help, I would have done it in. The stress here of being too easy going and Ying2 still better than fighting the battle alone in Singapore.

Maybe those back home will be so pissed off with me as I am here wu2 bing4 shen1 yin2.
