A Change

Working life is very different for us, but it also marks the beginning of the very beginning (the saving money bit). I think it was quite a large step for me.. getting used to working, getting used to living in the in betweens.. I find that I'm turning in our parents already, and Dennis is still the same, ever firm, calm, loving. But I thank God and trust Him that He has brought all these things our way, and that we learn and are growing better for it. We're changing as a couple. We're getting used to each other's ways, learning to finish each other's sentences, and still suffering the shyness that people who haven't lived together for 20 years suffer. We will get there- I prefer this novelty of us still being "new". I Love you, you know. I just want you to know.

Living and alive

So many times I'd like to think that we're mature and we know what love is and we've grown. But the truth is that we're still so young and in love. Its young love.

Like a teenager pretending to know it all. We pretend to have known each other for years. But what is 1 year or 2 years?
We're looking at 50 or 60 years of married life. We're like babies, growing at exponential rates. Everyday is amazing to me, everyday a new discovery about us, and everyday more love for you.

To young love.

I thank God that He keeps us together.

Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I move like a cat
Charge like a ram
Sting like a bee
Babe, I wanna be your man

Well it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy"

Spider Faith

Life has been getting harder these days due to the conflict in the house that has sucked Dennis into the centre of it all. Poor man, he does so well dealing with it but I don't feel normal living in such an abnormal situation.

But God had a plan to teach me about this, and to do this, He needed:
(a) One Large Ugly Orange Spider
(b) A Hero (the one you hold out for till the end of the night)
(c) A Car
(d) DC slippers

I was leaving Dennis' after a night of good fun with Daryl+Eunice, May+Alvin, Loong+Rebekah, Uncle+Auntie. We had a great time making Daryl practice his slow dance! Dennis walked me to the car and as we were saying goodbye, I spied with my little eye the most hairy disgusting spider on my car window! It crawled all over my car and I was so freaked out about driving home in the car in case it tried to attack me while I was doing 100Kph on the freeway! I didn't want to die just because some spider tried to best me. May and Alvin heard my squeals and in the end, we drove my car into the censor-light's path and spent 10 minutes looking for the spider. Alvin saw it go into the panel next to my car wheel. The 3 girls tried kicking the wheel and in the end, I took Dennis home with me because if the spider appeared, at least he would viciously kill it with Ethics in Business. Or, the spider would eat the book. But that was not likely. I tried to weigh to moral value of equally endangering my man, but the assurance that there was a gap between the panel it entered and the interior of my car told me that my conscience should be thoroughly ignored.

Daryl prayed over the car with anointing oil and I declared that the spider would be removed while the car was stationary and that I would see victory in my enemy's massacre. The ride home was stiff, and when Dennis reached to close the boot of my car when we got home, he felt something FURRY on his hand! He FLICKED, and it landed on the floor, whereby my hero proceeded to viciously squelch the spider with his slipper. Twice. Juicily.

So in the end, using all the aforesaid ingredients for faith lesson 23474, I learnt that even though the journey may be scary, God works all things out for the good of those who love him. And he makes good heros. I like.

Over the weekend, we bought some nice stuff. It makes me happy. I think its the best purchase that we've made in a very long time. Spending on her feels ssssoooooo good. And its a first.

But not the last. I got more ideas for the future too. =)

Things have been really crazy lately and I haven't had much time to spend with her. She has been patient and helpful. She helped me to pack my room and all my stuff into boxes. She remembers exactly where everything was placed. She stays up till 3+am with me. She helped me to refine my reflections paper. She corrects all the english errors. She drives me around. She is conscious of whether I'm tired or sleepy or both. She prepares breakfast. She gives me kisses and PDAs with me.

Sometimes she says that she hasn't done much and she hasn't done many things for me. Liar.

She has been simply the bestest thing in the world.

The Quiet World

In an effort to get people to look
into each other’s eyes more,
the government has decided to allot
each person exactly one hundred
and sixty-seven words, per day.

When the phone rings, I put it
to my ear without saying hello.
In the restaurant I point
at chicken noodle soup. I am
adjusting well to the new way.

Late at night, I call my long
distance lover and proudly say
I only used fifty-nine today.
I saved the rest for you.

When she doesn’t respond, I know
she’s used up all her words
so I slowly whisper I love you,
thirty-two and a third times.
After that, we just sit on the line
and listen to each other breathe.
