Bachelor of Covidology


February is a month to remember, it taught me life is full of surprise. 

Expect less, give thanks more in what I have

Appreciate little things that I may take for granted

It's all began last sunday afternoon when I felt a mild sore throat and I knew something was not right with my body as I seldom get sick. I started to drink lots of water as that's what I always do when I am about to fall sick. I never come across that Mr. C will pick me.


The next day when I woke up, I still felt the same so I took ART. My first ART was negative and felt awkward I used another ART and voila it turned out POSITIVE.

Thanks God I was still okay in the morning only mild sore throat and I just drank lots of water literally and wore masks. I didn't really isolate myself in the room since I still need to do household chores, taking care the kids and cooking.

However, in the evening after sunset, fever started to climb up and reached 38.8 deg C. I was so lethargic and no strength. The only thing I could do was closing my eyes.

Hubby quickly bought ibuprofen to help my fever down and it worked and I could sleep well the whole night and felt so fresh in the morning.

On Tuesday morning, I was so energetic and did my usual household chores etc and didn't feel that I was sick except mild sore throat only.

Again, in the evening, the fever started to climb up again and its peak was 38.3 deg celcius. I drank ibuprofen and it came down and I can sleep well.

On Wednesday morning, I felt so good and again did my usual activity. The sore throat changed to mild cough and runny nose, I needed to use pillow to support my head up so the phlegm didn't choke me.

In the evening, I had mild fever around 37.8 deg C.

On Thursday morning, hubby was tested positive since he stayed together with me in the same room, it's expected that he will join the club. 

I was feeling great on Thursday however in the evening I started to lose my taste and smell eventhough it's mild and had blocked nose too and no more fever.

It happened around 2 days until Friday.

On Saturday, I was 95% fit and when I tested myself, the second line was light so I knew I will be having negative soon. 

And Sunday, finally I saw it only one line and graduated from Covid Experience.

Thanks God that I and hubby are doing well, eventhough his experience was a bit longer than me.


Thanks God our kids are well and negative all the way eventhough we didn't isolate ourselves properly.

We are super grateful for our friends and family who prayed and sent us a lot of food, medicine and goodies to cheer us up.

Happy Valentine's Day 2023

This year's valentine is special. It's not just any celebration but it's a celebration of victory and marks the beginning of "new adventure". By God's grace and mercy, we reconciled during ME retreat last weekend. We were able to go back to where we were before the incident. I am full of love and able to share everything to hubby again. He becomes my best friend again, and it seems that love conquers all. And another challenge is now about "time". This first quarter is very busy period for me, traveling back and forth to Jakarta for business. Leaving my hubby and the kids behind is not a nice feeling eventhough there's a good thing on the other side of the coin as we are not taking each other for granted. As my gift of love, I want to give my precious time whenever I am available in Singapore to my hubby and the kids, thus in this valentine's day, I curated love coupons that he can redeem. Hopefully, this is something that can help us to comm

New Year Eve 2022

I am planning to hibernate during New Year Eve, sit down and doing some reflections and thinking about New Year resolutions, alas things may not happen according to my plan. I am very tired physically from the Malaysia trip. What I really want to do just sleep in and do nothing but what make me tired mentally is we fight over trivial matters. It started well this morning, we brought the kids out to West Coast for breakfast and strolled in the park. Hubby asked me what will be the plan for today as he wanted to give some year end speeches to the kids. I told him, I had no plan at all as I was very tired. I just wanted to stay at home and rest. He was quiet but I didn't notice it as I was quiet too to reflect what I have done this year and what will be my new year resolutions. When we went home everything was normal, I asked our helper to clean our car and did grocery for next week meals. While waiting the car wash done, I wrote this blog about our Malaysia trip. After she's done

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon.  We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely.  We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral w
