March 14 2006


Time really flies.
Its been 5 months since I packed my bags and left Singapore for Japan with my husband.

I never expect to marry a foreigner and I guess nobody thought that I would . I thought that I would end up a spinster or marry a Singaporean and lead a typical life. My whole life changed when I met my husband.

I had to make the tough decision to convince my family who were against it in the beginning. From young, I have never done a single thing that was against my parents` wishes. I was a good student, went to the university and got a job on my own straight after graduation. Choosing to marry my husband was the only rebellious thing that I have ever done in my whole life. Guess everyhing was predestined.

But I am glad we overcame the obstacles. We are very happy together even after 4 years. He is the perfect husband. We enjoy each other`s company and he is my soul mate. He also tolerates me for not being able to wake up in the cold winter to get his breakfast ready. I do try to wake up occasionally to fulfill duties as a wife, but its really too comfortable under the blankets.

We enjoyed ourselves in Singapore for 3 years before moving to Japan due to his work commitments.

In these 5 months living in Japan, we experienced autumn and winter together. We enjoy our weekends with long drives around Nagano prefecture. With this blog, I hope to introduce the beauty of the four seasons and our new life in Matsumoto.

Like you, my parents were a bit concerned about me moving to Japan. Parents are mostly like that, I think.

Seeing me very happy to be married and have an enjoyable life after all these years, they are fine now and are equally happy.

I hope you'll enjoy your life in Japan. Looks like you already are :-)
