Finally.... 1st post for 09 :P
It’s my first blog entry as Mrs Foo or some call me Madam Chong…argh, sound so old. Bleah… Anyway, we’re finally back after a super long break from blogging. Yes we are sooo lazy. So here are some main highlights over the past 6 months. (Though I wonder who still visit our blog????... anyway here goes)
Honeymoon at Club Med Bali – awesome! We took up the honeymoon package that includes free spa/body massage which we only used it on the last day when our body are aching all over from the sea and land sports. Club Med is the place to experience creative activities or for the simple pleasure of hanging out together. I wanna go again! Maybe Club Med Maldives?!
Married life – We’re getting settled in our new room and stuff. Getting to know each other even better. I do get concerned questions like ‘how’s married life?’ ‘How’s living with in-laws’ ‘how I’m coping with new environment’ etc, etc, etc.. Thanks everyone for your love and concerns. Married life is…Very Good =) and it will be good So long as God is in the centre of it all. We have been going back to my parents’ place every weekend for dinners too. It’s nice to be back to catch up with them, familiar home-cooked food/soup, sleep on MY FAVORITE BED, Hug my big cushions and also to disturb my brother. =) And because of my job training and Derek’s 2 weeks reservist, we were not able to apply leaves for youth camp, bleah. Nonetheless, I managed to make the most of this week sorting out and packing our messy room and spent some quality time with my family.
Work life – I’m filled with awe and thanksgiving when I talk about my job. It’s not a Christian organisation yet it makes me feel like serving in a Christ-centered ministry – serving people in need. I believe it is God’s divine intervention & His will to place me here. I’m growing, learning and defining my purpose throughout my 6 months here. Training has been beneficial and I’m already seeing patients. I enjoy meeting and working with children and their caregivers, though they come in weary; I aim to help them in whatever way possible to ease their anxiety and give them a glimpse of hope. My colleagues commented that my sessions are always filled with songs and laughter and it penetrates through the office walls. Some even requested to observe my session because it sounds fun. Hmm you must be thinking what is she working as? Doctor? Social worker? Counselor? Teacher? Nope… none of the above…. Though I have patients mistakenly addressed me as doctor.
Ok gtg now to see my next patient... Till next time...
