House of Love


It's almost time to say goodbye to our beloved home in Clementi. We’ve spent 12 wonderful years here, and this house has quietly witnessed our joys, sorrows, love, and frustrations. We fondly call it the House of Love because it’s where we welcomed our two boys.

On May 9, we’ll receive the key to our new home, which we’ve named the House of Transfiguration. Here's on why we chose this name.

After receiving the news, we contacted three real estate agents. One responded promptly, meeting us on April 28 to take photos and list the property on Property Guru and her network.

Incredibly, by May 1, we closed the deal. She brought five buyers on the same day, and one made an offer with a SGD 1,000 deposit.

The process was so swift that it was almost unbelievable.

Reflecting on our journey—from borrowing money from our parents for the deposit on our first house, to painting and renovating on a tight budget, to now selling and paying off our third house without a mortgage—it feels like nothing short of a miracle.

If this isn’t a testament to God’s timing and work, I don’t know what is. Everything has fallen into place perfectly.

I hope the new couple who bought our home will be blessed and find as much love and happiness here as we did.

Jubilee Year - Year of Hope (2025)

Year of Hope: A Personal Reflection on 2025 The year 2025 has been declared a Jubilee Year, a  Year of Hope  by the Pope—a time for peace, joy, and prosperity. For many, entering a new year brings feelings of happiness and optimism. However, I find myself on a different path, starting the year with anxiety and uncertainty rather than joy and hope. For me, 2025 is a year of the unknown. It marks the first time in four years that I will not hold the title of a working mom. Transitioning from this identity feels daunting and unfamiliar. It is also the year I plan to embark on a new venture: starting a winter rental business. This endeavor excites me but is fraught with challenges. There are countless pieces of the puzzle yet to be solved, and I pray for wisdom and the support of "ordinary angels" to guide me through. This is also a pivotal year for our family. Two of our children will face major exams. While I know the journey matters more than the results, I hope they develop s...

A Burger Date

It feels like it's been ages to have a date night with hubby, thus before my parents going back to Indo we decided to have a couple date over burger as I have been craving with Hans I'm Gluck burger. We went there, enjoying the burger and companion of each other and talking about anything, something that we are used to have but no longer anymore after I took a new role in the company. Then, I accompanied him to shop at H&M before heading back home. It's one of the best burgers I ever had since I am in fasting the whole day for a week. The perk of fasting is I could appreciate the food and enjoy it.

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...
