It's been a while since my last post and that is a good thing in a way. It means I have been busy, and I love being busy. Since a young age I have filled my hours with activities - whilst I was at school and university I was also learning musical instruments, learning languages, reading and reading more, and as I grew older, part-time work and travel entered the mix. Even after graduating and entering the full-time workforce, I had a yearning to study again and enrolled in a part-time Masters degree. And of course one can't forget the socialising with friends and family that has been a constant in my life.
All in all, it's made me an inordinately organised person. I can find time for everything. But these past weeks, even as I thought that yes I must write another blog post, I somehow didn't get around to it. Is the relaxed Malaysian lifestyle finally having an effect on me? Perhaps. And seeing as how KL is our home for the foreseeable future, sensing that I am adjusting and 'settling in' is satisfying. I still crave my home comforts - the people and places in Sydney that I love and feel bound to - but I think I am at that stage now where I can say that I have 'a life' in KL too. And since most expat experiences are transient, I doubt that this chapter in our lives will last forever but I do hope that the lessons learned and experiences shared will stay with us in our lifetimes.
