The most important ‘loss’ was that all posts by Glitter85 are now attributed to ‘Admin’. I will bulk fix this eventually.

Today, my most exciting news is – I just adopted a second dog. She came with a name and little else, and we’ll likely change her name soon.

Here are a select few images from my latest trip to Montana. This trip included many hours working on a house as a framer, sheetrocker, electrician, plumber, master tile installer, carpenter, and of course, demolition and cleaning up professional – exhausting as that was to type, it was worse to do for 10 hours a day so I snuck out occasionally for horseback riding, floating the river and a wild west county fair. I’m the proud new owner of my first pontoon boat, which is like a private luxury ride down the Missouri River. It has room for a cooler on back and racks and bags for adding lots of equipment – though all I seemed to need is my camera, some sunscreen and a sandwich – having a cooler of icy beverage is sweet!

We drive to Napa Valley to meet up with Shawn & Paula on Saturday and I had really good fun although I don’t drink wine. I never fancy wine or beer right from the beginning. I just don’t like the taste and smell. Weird, right? I used to love whisky but since a couple of years ago, my body can no longer accept whisky. Hmm…..maybe I’m getting old

During their visit, we went to one of best french restaurant. The food is really yummy. This is what we order in Chez Pannise :

Chez Pannise located in Berkeley.

We also went to Bouchon Bistro in Yountville for dinner on our last meeting with Shawn & Paula. We don’t eat much that time because we are so tired.

This morning I received a message from a former school friend that I don’t wish to add in my facebook. I have my own reason and I don’t think I want to write here. Paul think my reason is understandable and he think I shouldn’t accept this girl request to be in my friends list. After so much thinking, I accepted her friend request in facebook and reply her message in the evening. I think I just want everything let bygone be bygone. I went through her profile and I read her facebook wall and I started feel like she is living in fantasy world and she keep saying she is fat although I sincerely believe she is not fat at all.

It’s funny hearing girls complaining their weight. I used to think I’m too skinny and I will eat loads of fattening food. The funny part is, my metabolism very high and it’s freaking hard for me to gain weight. I can lose weight easily by skipping lunch. I’m lucky because Paul love me for who I am and he actually love me being skinny. Weird,right? Now I don’t need to eat loads of food to gain weight. I have no one to please. I am married…happily married (Well, I actually eat healthy since I came here. I like to look healthy because I love dressing up and looking pretty). I think loads of girls feel insecure with their body no matter how beautiful they look. The only advice that I give to myself is just be yourself and someday you’ll meet someone who love you for who you are.

With Paula, Shawn & Me

With Paula….one of Paul good friend. Paul have been friend with her more than 25 years. She’s really cool person.

Meeting Paula & Shawn is really fun. They live in Washington D.C. (It is 6 hours flight duration to San Francisco). They stayed with us for 2 nights and we had really good fun. They are fun & very friendly. They kept saying how lucky I am for living in San Francisco and I should enjoy it. I love San Francisco but I miss Malaysia so bad especially the food & Aidil Fitri. Knowing this year and next year I will celebrate Aidil Fitri in US is very sad. I’m so use being surround by family to celebrate Aidil Fitri.

I think I need to relax a bit. My body seem so tense and it cause my emotion not that stable. I always dream of Malaysia a lot. I’m trying my best to hang in here because my husband is amazing husband. Paula & Shawn says we lucky to found each other and we are very cute couple. We look after each other a lot. I learned a lot from my previous relationships & having Paul as my husband make me very lucky. Eventhough my past not as beautiful as honeydew (I always describe honeydew as beautiful fruit ) but I never want to change my past if I could.

Paula & Shawn just heading to Napa Valley. We’ll join them on Saturday. Can’t wait to hang out with them again.

Never once I picture myself living outside of Malaysia and here I am….living and currently fasting in San Francisco. I just came back from my 3rd appointment with myofascial release therapy. My body actually almost recover but last weekend we did whole house cleaning and it cause the pain come again. The cost for myofascial release therapy per an hour is $165. It’s crazy expensive and my 4th appointment will be next week. I hope I recover faster. I’m lucky because Paul love me too much and willing to do anything to see me happy & healthy.

I did loads of cleaning last weekend with Paul. One thing I learn from the experience is Paul & I complement each other. I’m so grateful to have him as my husband.

I know I have to start planning wedding in Malaysia but it’s hard when I can’t be there. It’s not that I don’t trust my parents to handle but it is my wedding and I want everything to go the way I want it to be. One of the venue I’m thinking is Shangri-La Putrajaya but my parents prefer the wedding in Shah Alam. I did ask quotation a couple of hotel in Shah Alam but the minimum guest they required is 500 people. Where should I get 500 people? From Farmville?

What’s new with us? Hmm…..Paul’s friend just arrived from Washington D.C. Their name is Paula & Shawn. They are cool people & extremely friendly. I had good laugh with them. We are going to explore San Francisco with them tomorrow. I’m quite excited.

This year we going to celebrate Aidil Fitri in New York. Sound weird, right? But what to do….I can’t go back to Malaysia until I receive my green card and I need to renew my passport after that and Malaysia embassy in Los Angeles says it takes 4 months to process. I mean….WTF! Why so long? I miss good Malaysian food badly.

Next weekend we going to Santa Cruz and we’ll watch Shakespeare theater call “Love’s Labor’s Lost” with Paul niece and the bf. I’m very excited. The next following weekend we going to South Tahoe and the other following weekend we going to Eureka. Our schedule very pack until raya. I love holiday

We are officially married now

I have to admit that I’m very happy that I’m married to the most wonderful man that I have ever been with. It is amazing feelings. The Civil Ceremony is brilliant. Those pictures is actually from Martin’s camera. Our wedding photographer will give us the pictures next 2-3 weeks. I can’t wait to see

My life in San Francisco is good. It feel weird when I called my parents and my relatives and they asked me “Are you happy?”.

Of course I’m happy to be here despite my grandfather just disown me for migrate here but I have no choice. I love Paul and I know he is not a typical white guy whose going to take me for granted. Paul is not the first white guy I dated. I know white men who cheated and Paul is not one of them. I wish people can see how wonderful Paul is and honestly, he always make me happy.

Today is my anniversary. OMG, it feel like yesteday! Happy Anniversary, Sayang. I feel so grateful to have you as my boyfriend and fiance. Thanks for making me a better person and treated me well. I’m very lucky to have you in my life.

We drive to Salt Lake City, Utah on March 29, 2010. It took 13 hours driving from San Francisco. Paul wanted to drive instead of flying because he wanted to show me the countryside.

That’s the 1st time I see snow. The whole journey to Salt Lake City is like in the movie. We also went to Cowboy’s city.

This photos taken at Temple Square, Utah. It’s very interesting city because Salt lake City was founded in 1847 by a group of Mormon pioneers led by their prophet, Brigham Young. Temple Square is the biggest Mormon church in the world. There’s a lot young cute girl whose working as missionary walking around and offering to give information about their religion. They are extremely friendly and they even compliment me saying I’m beautiful

My meeting with Paul’s dad, Paul’s brother & Paul’s nephew was good. Everybody is nice.

This’s Paul’s dad.

This is State of Utah.

Paul make pasta on our 2nd last day in Salt Lake City. Me & Andy help him preparing ingredients to cook.

Some view from Salt Lake City to Nevada.

Heavy snow suddenly come when we was in Tahoe and Paul have to buy chain.

Paul pay the Shell guy USD25 to install the new chain since he never do it before.

I love looking at Paul while he is driving. It just remind me how lucky I am because Paul is the best guy that I ever been with and I can’t wait to marry him.

I took almost 2 weeks to recover from jet lag + I was sick that time too. My 1st 3 days is crazy. I woke up, go out for breakfast and then, my head spinning after a couple of hours. Force me to go home and sleep. I sleep until the next morning. It was crazy moments. Now I know how Paul feel when he came to visit me 4 times.

I’m so lucky to have Paul as my fiance. He’s really wonderful. Help me a lot with adjustment.We went to Golden Gate & City Hall, San Francisco. Beautiful place.

I miss Malaysian food a lot. Seriously, we went to 1 of Malaysian restaurant called “Lime Tree Southeast Asian Kitchen” and my beef rendang taste lousy. Seriously, lousy. I miss my mom cook

I’ll blog about Salt Lake City, Utah next time.
