These 2 weeks has been amazing,
shocking in some ways, like today (more later)
and surprising in others.
The hubs has been nothing short of dramatic
which is super unusual
coz the 'drama queen' is usually me.
I have been upstaged.
And haha, the feeling is odd.
I cannot fathom what has happened to him
but in some secret way,
I am enjoying it....
Its like we have another way of connecting,
he and i...
He got so pumped up when I agreed to go on a hike
with him and Kita today... he was actually grinning, glowing
and acted every bit like a proud trooper.
Ok, so me being the one that is Not-so-into-Mother Nature type
did get squeamish at the very last min,
my heart was palpitating like crazy
and I was on the verge of just giving him the excuse
that my tummy was aching like there was no tomorrow
but, I decided to suck it up!
So off we went, my hubs being my hubs,
despite having all the technology in the world to serve him,
he relished in the likes of deciding that Diary Farm Hut had parking,
so we shall begin our acension from there....
BIG MISTAKE!!! HUGE!!!!
I never climbed so many steep steps / stairs,
walked on so many slippery terrains in my Life!
We should have just started from the usual Bukit Timah Hill path
wah lau eh.... act smart lor.
At some points, I had thoughts of rolling down the hill
and at some other points, I secretly hoped we don't come across
some dead body, the place is so akin to CRIMINAL MINDS / CSI...
I cannot help it, been watching a lot of TV. LIKE.A.LOT
And for the life of me,
I felt like I was in JAPAN HOUR
walking thru the forest or in army,
marching away with my hubs ahead cheering both Kita and myself on,
and Kita, sweet Kita, God bless his soul,
was so gentlemanly, he waited behind,
made sure I was ok,
basically he did everything in the handbook right... haha
if there ever was a handbook on how to woo a girl,
this Japanese dude sure got it all right
At some point, I even ran up the steep terrains.
I think I went mad. Haiz...
I feel fitter, no doubt.
The air smelt great in there...
but emotionally, I think I was a wuss.
I was swamped with mixed feelings upon concluding my hike.
On one hand, proud about my accomplishment
and on the other hand, I wished I had better stamina,
I want to try this again,
but I wanna train.
So, instead of the usual routine runs,
I shall also go hike once in a while,
just to change up the routine I have.
And to ensure I get better and hahaha, lose MORE weight lar!!!
I am so tired now...
cannot fathom how I can hold a decent conversation at dinner with my family
or even seem energetic, for fear of letting my mum feel less important.
Anyways, work wise, things have been a whirlwind.
Some words to sum up how I feel...
Mountain / Insanity / Pile / Deadlines
I mean, I have seen this level of stress before,
just that, haha, I wished I had a "honeymoon" period
you know, before the torrential hurricane sweeps you up
and carries you to somewhere else....
there is no stopping, before I can plan,
I have to do, sometimes, i feel robotic.
Almost surreal.
I keep telling myself,
my social life is saved for the weekends mostly, for now.
But when the weekends hit,
all I wanna do is sleep. Like a bear in winter.
Or just run and dance, workout.
I dont even have the mood / energy to play my FB games.
I know, i know, lame right? At my age, FB games...
aiya, judge all you want, I don't care.
The games take my mind off a lot...
And my Fridays, supposedly date nights with the hubs,
see me wanting to head home to sleep....
anyways, I really really appreciate my muse, my hubs
for being the ultra sweet candy he is...
for sending me flowers when he knows it brightens my day,
pink roses always puts a permanent smile on my face..
and for being the sweetest fellow I know.
No one treats me better than you baby.
I want us to remain like this, forever.
And, I seriously hope, I got my Christmas pressies all covered.
Hope everyone is covered and I did not miss out any persons.
I got the list written, but no time to go shop as yet.
And on a side note, both Kita and Jean just came back from Korea
and they both got me all my favourite items,
without me telling them what they are!
They are such dolls!!!!!! Love them to bits....
Love my close friends who can read me and love me.
Breaking Dawn was dishy...
I mean, the way Edward Cullen loves Bella
and the smouldering HOT Jacob....
Hubba Hubba.... hahahaha
the fight scene was AWESOME!
So was the "other" scene. Teehehehe~~
Darren was a real friend, he had my back
I am just so blessed.
To have such great friends around me,
I don't know what i did to deserve them
but they are so willing to be there for me.
I can only Thank God for them.
Anyways, this trooper has to go niapp now.
Goodnight World!
Xoxo
