Starting a Blog

March 25, 2010

I don’t really know why I’m doing this. Perhaps it was because of my shrink. Or maybe it was Julie & Julia. Most probably because I am tired of flooding my Facebook with pics of my cooking and subjecting my poor friends to every minute detail of my boring life as a housewife in a new country.

These moments will never come back. And in 3 years or so, it will be a new country and a whole new experience. I want to remember every moment of wonder, every triumph in learning to be a “proper” housewife, and all the realizations/embarrassments in between.
