Cortisol

 Sigh my body really can’t handle too much of cortisol and despite me trying not to gain weight, I have gained weight. At least my significant half is being frank and I could accept that he find me less appealing. Most important of all is that he still loves me. I have to keep reminding myself that men in general could separate intimacy and love. I somehow seems to categorise intimacy and love into one and that is why I felt a little worried that he didn’t want to be intimate. 

The weather’s been horrible since I arrived here and it was so rainy and windy. I thought I could go hiking or running to loose weight but instead the cold weather made me hungry and I feel like a bear wanting to eat and then hibernate. Staying at home is really nice as I get to sleep in the most optimum condition and I get to have a nice warm body to cuddle me. I still feel that the safest place in the entire world is to be in the arms of my Loved one. That was how I felt back in 2012 when I was so upset and he cuddled me to sleep and that feeling remains the same till this day. 

The freaking weather have cause us some loses as the wind destroyed some of the crops and there’s fallen trees. I know he is really stressed out himself but he is being resilient and optimistic. The rent for the farm plot is increasing too and next year it is going to increase even more. The owners of the farm plot are rather inconsiderate as they think that vegetables are expensive so we must be earning quite a lot but what they don’t understand is we sell our produce to wholesalers and it is at a very low price. Whatever is being sold at the supermarket is the end result after the vegetables are being passed on to a few buyers. I really don’t think it is sustainable to continue the farming business if rent is going to be expensive. 

I really hope I could take on a new skill that could help me have a second income, otherwise I am not sure how to support my partner if at the worst case scenario he could no longer continue his business. Hmm, I know I give unnecessary stress to myself which is going to release more cortisol but I really want to live a carefree life and it is only by being financially independent can a carefree life be attained. 

Where should I opt to work temporarily before I get a permanent placement? Coming home makes me feel like staying here forever and the idea of me being apart from him if I return to my hometown kinda makes me sad. It’s not going to be monthly visits and probably 3 monthly visits unless I don’t mind spending on transportations (actually I don’t mind if I could make more). Time is ticking and I won’t have so many decades to spend with my loved one. I really wish we could stay together. Somehow I feel he removes the excess cortisol in me.

Singapore

Continuation from yesterday’s post.  I finally ate the ice cream which is sandwiched between two wafers that I saw before and it was yummy because there’s like a huge block of ice cream and the wafer was thin. I chose peppermint chocolate and raspberry swirl. It was really fun to eat that on the helical bridge that totally looks like a DNA strand. I really love this region and it was also the same place where the fun run was held. So I got to go across the helical bridge twice. I am also very happy to finally seen the Merlion and since it was early in the morning during the fun run, the place was rather quiet and there were not many crowds. I wanted to properly run the fun run but I end up walking most of the time just enjoying the scene and talking to people since it was supposed to be a networking event. Delegates from 142 countries were there but I only manage to make friends from Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Germany and New Zealand. It was quite hard to make ...

Pieces of My Shatterd Heart

I miss you, when you laugh, the twinkle in your eye, the shape of your silhouette against the moonlight, the way you concentrate when you drive, and tease me intentionally to make me smile I really miss you~~~~~ I like the time when we went out and it was raining you treated me like an ice cream afraid of me melting shunning me away from the water droplets falling and when I look up to see you I caught you smiling... Drowning in a pool of misery wondering how to change history to diminish my growing worry to seal you in my deepest memory Not having you means not having anything cause you are the one whom i can share everything its you i seek when the rays of dawn comes shinning don't you know that my heart is now shattering? When night comes the missing is unbearable cause its was always the time you are more available yet now even when the curtains of dusk falls I'm l...

Her Dream, His Dream

Once upon-a-time... ...and they lived happily ever after The End I bet most of the fairy tales we hear during our childhood years sounded very similar if not exactly as the statement above. I have always wanted my life to be similar to those story where there's magic, love, eternal happiness and most important of all my very own prince! Please note that prince here refers to life-partner and it does not equal to the average "boyfriend". It's not like I'm going to be seen with a wedding ring and a veil over my head very soon but I do admit, I would really love to get married with my prince as fast as possible so that I can reach the part of the story where " they live happily ever after". However, I learn that in reality, nothing can be as flawless as in the tales which have been the basic foundation of my life. If life has no flaws, earth would have been known as heaven. Even so, life is still beautiful and I learn that for a marriage to ...
