I'm wondering....

Remember I was effing pissed at him last month?

Today I'm rather pissed at him too. I was at work... wondering how wonderful it would be if I could snuggle back under the covers with him today because it was a rainy day.

Then at noon he wakes up and freaks out. His lecturer called him up and apparently he needs to make some amendments to his assignment. He freaks out. Assignment carries 40%, so I'll go back tmr afternoon, he tells me.

Then he freaks out even more because his maid had accidentally broken the water tank of the toilet.

I laughed silently to myself because sometimes he makes mountains out of molehills and well, it was a tensed day at work, it was rather funny to hear that his maid had broken the toilet.

I'm freaking out, he tells me. Chill... breathe in and breathe out. I'm at work. There's only so much I could do for him. So I told him to go shower, eat some breakfast and then figure out what he wants to do. No point doing anything now unless you're relaxed, I said.

Then he freaks out even more because the license on MS Word on his notebook has expired so he can't do the amendments to his assignment and when he came back this time, he forgot to bring the wireless card for his desktop. That translates to = cannot make amendments to assignment.

After a bit he was quiet. So I asked "Are you okay?" then he tells me that he just threw up.

*stares blankly at the screen*

Apparently that happens when he's too freaked out. Damned artists. I can't imagine being that freaked out as to be able to throw up and esp not at what he was going through. So I left him to cool down and I went out for lunch. "I'm going to eat now, talk to you later okay?"

I came back from lunch and he was offline. So I thought maybe he was trying something.

Few hours later, he was still offline. So I texted him "Hun are you okay?"

It took him 5 flipping minutes to reply me "In KL now :P "

*sigh*

I'm not asking him to report to me on every step that he takes. But at least have the decency or the courtesy to tell me that you'll be going back to KL. Is it that so hard?

Geez... that boy really has no.... goodness I can't even begin to describe - brains? decency? courtesy? common sense? Bah!

I mean it's not like driving out to somewhere with an internet connection and working MS Word... or driving out to Macca's to grab something. This is KL for crying out loud. It's bloody two hours away.

I'm PMS-ing again....

Subject: Whose spider is that?

Dear Jane, Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.

Regards, David.

I understand and will definately make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.

Regards, David.

Auugghhh!

I hate it when I miss him. It gets very annoying. I get very restless. It's all annoying... and I blame him :P

He spoils me so much by coming back every weekend so much that it has only been 2 weekends (not in a row, thank God) that he has not been back in the entire length of our relationship and, well, it's not unbearable... but it's just... like I've lost either one limb (yes I know it sounds exaggerated but that is the way it feels)

And recently it has become a tad worse... not that I really want to complain but it's just that he's been working on his music so much that I literally do not see him at all. He came back last weekend... and on Tuesday I was in DJ so we met up for a couple of hours (which was pretty much fun since we've never hung out anywhere else but Ipoh) and he's supposed to be back this weekend but his brother has got friends coming in from Melbourne and he'll only be able to make it back home on Wednesday or so....

He's going through a lot of tutorials and starting from scratch to build his instruments so much so that his body clock is all wonky now hahaha and I love watching him go like that... it reminds me of when I'm in the writing mood. I can write chapters and chapters on end and editing goes on non stop.

We're both perfectionists in that way. Which tends to annoy a lot of people. Especially when we become uber anal about perfection in our own work :P

I love it that he's working on his music :)
I love being the guinea pig to the endless versions of his work
I love listening to the different sounds he produces (I am actually fascinated with it, even though I was classically trained in classical music for over 10 years, digital music amazes me)
I love that my opinions on his work matters to him (I'm not that much of a techno trance electro kind of person to begin with, which is the genre he works on)

However, I do not love not being able to see him as often as I want to....

I could make a fuss... or throw a tantrum... but I won't...

Bleh. I'm just annoyed that I miss him so much...

CPtm

I'm so proud of my puppy :)

His work got featured in Channel [V] - Remote Control yesterday at 4pm (+0800GST). It was a very short bit... just a filler song for the National Day parade snippet... but hey! it's a start.

And he's submitted entries for the VIMA 2008 (Voice Independent Music Awards) and they organizers have gotten back to him on his newest single and they want to feature him as an artist on their Indie Spotlight! *jumping with glee*

I'm being overly excited for him about this whole thing....

Ooohh and we've officially passed the one month mark... I'm overly excited about this too....!

It's his birthday today... but he's got one paper for his finals on later....

*the bunny wishes lots of luck to the puppy*

Happy birthday hun... this will definitely be YOUR year ;) love you!

i love you

Yes I finally said it.

It feels like this weight has been lifted off my shoulders.... like the suns rays poking through a cloud of mist showing me the way... I actually feel liberated.

We were hanging out in the hall as usual watching a movie. It's his birthday weekend and I had a menu planned out but unfortunately he had to eat with his grandparents, so our dinner plans got canceled.

We were lying on the couch... snuggling and talking about random stuff as usual... then I looked at him

"I love you..." I said softly. He sat up and smiled at me. I think I caught him off guard. In a way, I felt that he was waiting for me to say it back to him.
"Really?"
"Yes.... I do..."
"I love you too,"

Now I know why they call it those magic three words. Because right now I feel like the world is really all rainbows and sunshine and butterflies and flowers in bloom everywhere.

It really does feel magical to say those three words and really mean it to the person you love in his face. I've never done that before....

I'm on a high...

FB messed up :P

I'm on FB like every other night... then when I click to log off FB chat, I realized that they had uploaded my previous status update. So I clicked on my Profile to see if it refreshes or not and look what happened....

HAHAHAHA on the top it says that I'm chocolate hot pot-ing and in my chat window, it says that I'm THE perfect denial ;)

Talk about messing up...

I can't stop laughing

blood donation

I donate blood as often as I can... it's kinda like my own way of doing something for the society. Also, mom used to tell me that dad did it a lot when he was alive so in a way I'm probably trying to continue some sort of tradition.

I started donating at the age of 18 and I actually quite like doing it. It gives me a sense of pride or satisfaction or some sort knowing that what I do can help save someone's life.

I am squeamish about needles... but as long as I don't see where it goes, it's not as bad....

I've only had one collapse in all my years of donating. That one time, was in a mall, I saw that there was a blood donation drive and had gone over to volunteer. After I was done, I looked up and realized that there was a long queue of volunteers and being a 'seasoned' donor I told the nurse that I can just get up so that the next volunteer could start.

Two minutes after I had gotten up, spots started to blind my vision and the next thing I knew, I was back on the stretcher bed with nurses and my friend, Maggie looking at me "Are you ok? You blacked out and almost hit the ground, lucky we saw you were collapsing!"

This time, I was out with him in the mall and I saw a blood donation drive. Pretty quiet one too. So I walked over and signed up. Turns out I was their first volunteer, which really surprised me because it was about 2 in the afternoon.

Everything went well, as usual. Then when I told the nurse I wanted to get up, she held on to the bed and he extended his hand to hold my left arm (I was donating with my right) and somehow as a reflex to getting up, I used my right arm to help push me off the bed.

THEN I realized that I had used my right arm and I looked down, blood was gushing out cuz I applied pressure to it. Hahaha... he panicked a bit... the nurses panicked a bit... and all I did was stare at my blood flowing out staining my arm, top and a bit of the floor

They made me lie down again.

This time he made sure that he lifted me off the bed instead of letting me get up by myself :)


Then I had realized AFTER the entire incident that he's squeamish about needles and blood....

He's really fantastic I'm telling you... in his own little subtle ways... he's blowing my mind...
