Another holiday season is just around the corner. Sometimes I just can’t fathom how fast the summer flew by. Our baby girl was sick pretty much most of the summer, so Mr. FAF and I didn’t go on any long trips outside of DC. We […]
The title says it all. We got our green cards! We are now permanent residents of the US. As some of you may know, Mr. FAF and I came to the US on a student visa. After graduating from school, we found a full-time job […]
I can’t believe it’s been almost two months since I published my last post about changing careers. You might be wondering what’s happened since. In this post, I’ll give you a quick update about my jobs, my new adventure, and our lives in general. 1. […]
In my last post, I wrote about a potential layoff I was facing and the midlife crisis I suddenly found myself in. From the beginning of December 2018 to the end of January 2019 (practically two months), I was lost, scared, and distressed about not […]
On October 15, 2018, I wrote: “I am sure I will be in his shoe at one point in my career, and I will need his support as much as he needs mine at the moment.” I was talking about Mr. FAF’s fear of getting laid […]

It started to get cold in DC a week ago. When hubby and I went to Costco, we already saw Halloween and Christmas decorations on sale. That’s a clear sign that the holiday season is here! First comes Halloween, then Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New […]
Mr. FAF looked down at the floor. His eyes were reflecting an undeniable sense of despondency. I can always tell when he’s unhappy or stressed about something. And I always ask him what’s on his mind, otherwise he won’t tell me until much later, if […]
