Stop

I think I should stop writing about my relationship. It is not going anywhere, and I feel like no matter what I do, he is just being distant. He did certain things that are gestures of love, such as making me breakfast and removing the prawn shell for me during our steamboat dinner with our parents last night, but we still slept at two ends of the bed, and I don't remember him giving me physical contact since the day we quarreled. 

Today I drove to work and manage to make it on time, I think it is therapeutic to be driving again provided there are no traffic jams or lots of motorcycles and big trucks. I think I do not have much confidence in driving because my dad kept telling me to be careful and when I wanted to take him out but he refused. It is actually quite tiring to be over-protected and to be restricted and I have to be ready to live in such a suffocating environment when I get home and I do not look forward to this part of being home. Knowing that I will have to drive about 20-40mins daily to work depending on the traffic, my dad want me to find a place to rent near the workplace to avoid driving. I told him I'm not going to waste my money renting elsewhere and I rather pay rent to my own brother and go home each day to see family. 

I feel bad that the 1 week they came to visit me, I have no time for them as I am stuck in the workplace doing absolutely nothing. I have been gaming, deleting emails and photos and reorganizing the files in my laptop which is quite tedious as everything is scattered after the exams. I took up Japanese on Duolingo and learning how to learn in Coursera but I just feel less motivated this week maybe because my parents are around and all I want to do is to go home and spend some time with them. I guess I will still be around to spend winter solstice with my husband which is what I have been wishing for all these while. 

Come to think of it almost all my wishes came true for this year and I can't wait to go home. I hope the official letter for me to head home will materialize soon, best if it's right after Chinese New Year break so that I could save 3 one-way tickets.

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 ...
