It's been a long time coming....

Oh wow, it's literally been months since my last update. Life has just been so fast-paced that I've had to put the blog aside. So many things have happened since the last entry.

2 of the more significant events are:
1)We're married! (Legally speaking); and
2)We're houseowners!

To expand on those 2 pieces of news, it's been about 2 weeks since our ROM. It was an intimate affair at My Secret Garden and was attended by our families and close friends. I was looking forward to holding our ceremony at the courtyard area, but the skies decided to sprinkle their blessings on us that afternoon, so we had to hold it indoors. But it was a minor setback, for it was the company of our loved ones and the significance of the day that really mattered.

We went on a mini honeymoon after the ROM. Didn't go very far, thanks to a fellow blogger, we found out about this beautiful little island called Pulau Rawa, off Mersing town in Malaysia. It's a really nice place to lie back and relax for a couple of days. Don't expect any fancy facilities. It's pretty back-to-basics. Not totally rough-and-tumble style, but it's a laidback little resort. The water is wonderfully clear and the air of laidback charm is all that I need. I wish I was back there now :(

Then when we came back, it was time for another significant day. We were finally able to collect the keys to our new home. Since then, we've been going to our new place regularly to check on defects and stuff. Just submitted the defects list yesterday.

More developments to come.....
