Introduction

I was sitting around reading other people's blog when I felt the urge to start my own. I'm going for the anonymous blogger concept coz well, I want to keep things private, but at the same time I'd like an avenue where I can write about my feelings and experiences. So, all names of people and places have been changed to protect the innocent.

A little background about said blogger might help. I'm past the age where other people start getting what is known as the quarter-life crisis. But I haven't reached the big three-oh yet. Lived most of my life in good ole Malaysia. Now I live abroad with my hubby. We've been together for more than 5 years but sometimes it seems like we're still the young naive couple that we were when we first met.

I think my life's been pretty interesting. Never had a serious boyfriend growing up. I was shy. Plus I have this thing about doing what I think my parents would want me to do. And I thought they didn't want me to have a boyfriend till I had finished school. (Little did I know that my mom was worried that I was a lesbien coz it didn't seem like I was interested in boys!). Anyway, my first realy boyfriend is now my hubby. What's interesting about our relationship is that we started off with a long distance relationship. I was studying in Britain and he in the US. We never really spent more than 2 months together throughout the courting stage of our relationship. When we got married I moved to live with him in the country he's always known and grown up in. It's been 2 years since I've uprooted myself from my home country to be with him. And this blog I think will be about my life in a foreign place. Nothing special. Just a journal. A journal of an undomestic diva.
