Moment Of Truth
Many of my girlfriends & family often asked why i chose a man from a “ulu” town.. to settle down with, since i had many choices for I worked with a lot of ppl and meets tons too. Muahahah!! and every now and then.. with the ladies/moms here .. i get the same question. Well, moment of truth .. g/fs is .. yes.. i get to meet a lot of ppl, but most are either too full of themselves (i’m so full of myself, so how can i tolerate another like me right..?) or some are already married.. and only looking for a fling .. which i was not into ( after get AIDs how..??) .. and those “suitable ones” .. well .. lets just say .. they want someone submissive..?? and others.. they have their own expectations.. of the woman they want to settle down with.
As you all know.. i met PB online. He was funny and witty .. and had a dry sense of humor, obviously SMART .. but having said all these.. had i known what it was gonna be like here.. in small town, i would definitely had encouraged him to live in Asia. But now that we’ve Chloe, it makes it a lot harder to move.. because of all the benefit the Canadian government gives to these kids - the future generation. Surely there are lots of things that I don’t like here but I never have to work for someone else for the last 9 yrs. On top of everything else, PB shares half of everything i do for Chloe and the house.. i’m a 50/50 gal and in our household, there is no one thing that either of us wouldn’t do. And of course, most importantly, the heavy duty stuff is done and taken care of by PB. All in all, it’s great except for missing food and home, now if they had just 1 hawker center in Yarmouth, I’ll be good for life here. So for those thinking of migrating.. make sure you migrate where there are authentic food around eh. Love is important .. but food is equally as important.
Aww…how romantic…Who knows where one will find love. Stand by your man!

Some people asked me why I married someone from an eastern bloc European country. They don’t know him and yet they judge by where he came from. People like to ask questions. Even if their lives are a lot worse than ours ‘thinking’ theirs are better. LOL Sheez…

At the end of the day, you have a good, solid husband who is a loving father to your little miracle and life is happy in the grand scheme of things… don’t matter if it’s in Timbuktu, it’s all worth it! I just had to laugh out loud with your closing statement, how TRUE!!!! You don’t know how I hard I prayed that was true when I was preggers… so bad that I had to cook it myself and of course, after masak one big pot, have to eat the same thing for a week till jelak…. siiigh! My parents always complain that the food standard in KL has dropped and I just have to groan because even the worst version will taste heavenly to us here huh???
