Reminiscing 2012

Today is the second day of 2013. 2012 has officially become a history, as of yesterday.

Looking back, I think 2012 was a really BIG year for me.

In 2012:

I baked more cookies and cakes when I was pregnant (because I had the mood and chances!). And here's (cheers) to more baking in 2013!

I went back to my home country, Indonesia - only once! For the first time in so many years.

My husband caught dengue fever from our last visit to Indonesia and he had to stay in hospice for almost a week. I was pregnant at that time and it was quite a trying time for me, physically and emotionally.

I sort of lost my professional life, hence my fixed income. Due to various circumstances and personal choice, I decided to become a stay-at-home wife/Mom. *bye for now, my cum laude double-degree in International Business Management and career in Singapore*

I appeared in local magazines twice.

I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. 

Can't thank God enough for His marvellous gift to us, baby Naomi.

My husband and I finally moved to our very own dream home.

I lost my uncle in Indonesia.

I lost my dear parental Grandma in Indonesia. I only managed to see her once in 2012. I regret I didn't take more photos with her when I was in Indonesia, spend more time with her nor attend her funeral because I had to take care of my newborn in Malaysia.

Overall, 2012 was a bitter-sweet year to me.

I have a feeling 2013 is going to be another happening year for you and me. In a good way, I hope.
