September 2012

September is probably the stretchiest month for me. It was an eventful month filled with emotions. The first weekend had us Tan siblings commemorating mom's birthday for the first time without her physically being there.She had left us two months earlier to return to the Lord. September 8th was to be her birthday but i guess the Lord wanted to celebrate it with her by his side. We miss her. I miss her.

2nd week was The Urban Jungle Race flag off which i was apart off. We had 17 teams participating this year. The creation team consisted of Pat, Elaine, Eddie, Dani and me. The organisation of this event was quite a stretch and it took our rusty organising skills 3months and more to complete. Everyone on the committee had a lil too much on their plate i guess. What a relief it was when we blew the final whistle. It left me to focus on my next project...my wedding!

Sept 22 was my wedding at The Mines. It had been a year in the making and frankly we only took effective action at the very last month. Definately not recommended! What a stretch it was. Confirming this and that and the list is endless. You would think a year is 365 days long. Well it was 365days short. Crazy and suicidal to do last minutes. Had some wonderful people helping us and in the end it was a pretty wonderful beach wedding.

Right after that on the 24th we were, all 3 of us, Joey, Gaea and i left for Nexus Karambunai for our mini honeymoon. Gave us an opportunity to show the Komatsu family a piece of Sabah. Came back to work on friday and saturday we were off again to the island of Singapore for the weekend.

Crazy month filled with all sorts of emotions. Exhausting but WOW! What a month! It was also Gaea first plane ride and first overseas trip.
