back to melbourne

while closing the fridge door just now, i caught sight of madder moon's name card and remembered the initial weeks of being back  here in singapore.

i remember telling the artist/owner of Maddermoon that it was refreshing hearing her call Singapore her new home, and speaking so fondly of this country. i remember that at that point in time i was still slightly apprehensive about being back here.  on top of that, i was trying to get through my relationship complications.

and now i'm more settled in singapore. in between the visit to maddermoon and now, i've gone back to melbourne once.  that trip felt a bit like i was intruding a little - because i kind of never left, yet i was not part of the life there, and all of a sudden i was back for easter. funny feeling. i dont remember too much of it save for easter camp, so i reckon this time back, i'll do a lot more writing.

just last night i logged on to facebook again (something which i've not done much of since starting work).  Seeing pictures of the melbourne happenings, like the kids church picnic, and birthday celebrations - that's making me pretty excited about going back to see what has happened over the past few months which have just flown right by.

scarlette has definitely grown! she's so cute in the pictures. i wonder what her personality is like in real life!  a baby's growth in her first year is evident. but asking myself how i've grown in the past year - now that's not as straightforward. hopefully this break will give me some time to gather my thoughts and my year.

apart from catching up with so many amazing people, and.. getting some overdue exercise, and living the melbourne life..i think it's going to be quite exciting paying a visit to the Page office in Melbourne. :) completely different market. wonder if that really means a completely different breed of consultants.  well we'll find out.
