My 29th Birthday

Friday, 19 Feb 10, 11.49am at home

Dear my little diary..
Today is my birthday, my 29th birthday! Old, huh? After my 29 times of birthday, I forget about my own birthday sometimes. I was touched by what happened last night. I got a surprise from my hubby at midnight. I know it is so cheesy to write it here, but I really don't want to forget that moment. A beautiful moment that I thought would never happen again after 2.5 years of my stagnant marriage life.

Last night we went to bed around 11.30pm. As usual we had a chat on the bed for a while before going to sleep. Usually my hubby falls asleep few minutes after he hits the bed. But this time was a little different. He kept talking till at one moment he checked his mobile phone checking the time. It was 12.04am. He said 'Happy Birthday! I was waiting till 12 to say happy birthday to you' then he kissed me 3 times (this has nothing to do with magic or superstitious thing like what you imagine). Then he said 'Let's sleep'. Yes, he is that type of person, a very realistic guy. It was 12 midnight, he needed to wake up early for work the day after, so he needed enough sleep no matter what happened.

His back was on my face. I said 'let's hold hand'. You may think this is funny but it has become our habit to sleep with our hands together. He said 'No need, I need to sleep now'. I insisted 'please.. just for few minutes'. Finally he gave up, he gave his right hand to me. It's really for 3 minutes then he released my hand and he was back to his sleeping pose with his back in front of my face. I was sad. He didn't even give his hand on that special night. But I was too tired to complain.

When I was about to fall asleep, suddenly there was a loud noise. My hubby said something that I really forget now. What I remember is, he gave me something.. something inside a paper bag, wrapped with ribbons. Inside my dark bedroom, I couldn't see what it was. But I really recognized the paper bag and the ribbons especially. I didn't want to turn on the light initially. I wanted to enjoy that surprise and that excitement moment. Finally, one word was out from my mouth 'Dior!'. Yes, I really fall in love with Dior till I can recognize the paper bag by just touching it. *Do you fall in love with Dior products or with Dior paper bag?* I turned the light on finally, yes it was Dior! Dior Clutch!

We had a short chat again after that. He is not the type of person who will just sleep no matter what happen on that night. Although I have married him long enough, sometimes I just can't guess what's inside his mind and his heart. He gave me his right hand again for me to hold, then he fell asleep. I forgot of being 29 years old, I was so so happy till I had a hard time sleeping again after that.

Have a nice day, diary! ^0^

Being a Wanted?

Friday, 5 Feb 10, 8.04am at home

Good morning, my dear diary..
It's Friday again! I woke up this morning, brushed my teeth, said bye bye to my husband who's going to work (I mean, he was the one who said bye bye), turned on my laptop, checked my emails, and opened this diary. It's all because I received some emails from my friends who dropped comments in my previous posts. I feel touched that they still care reading my little diary in the middle of their busy schedule. Some of them also kept asking me to write again. I am not sure if they really like reading what I write, or they just need to know what I am doing, or they like reading my posts to kill time before going to bed? Anyway, whatever their reasons are, they are my motivators. And here I am, writing diary again.

I had a dream last night. Quite scary dream. In my dream, I was a wanted. No, I was not sure if I was a wanted. I just knew that I was chased around by some people who wanted to kill me. I kept running. I kept running. The building where I was running around in suddenly was bumped by a big ship and started to go down. *Now thinking about a big ship... how can a big ship bump a building which stands strong in the middle of the city?* That was just a dream! Anyway, I kept running, trying to escape from the building, and from the killers, and suddenly... a hand was on my mouth, there was a guy who wanted me to shut up before I made noise. I was so shocked! This guy whispered on my ear 'Why are you breathing so loud?? Your noise is disturbing my sleep!' Yes, it was my husband's hand and my husband's voice in real life. Then I woke up. End of my dream. I should have explained to him that I was running, that's why I was breathing so loud. I am not some kinds of Piglet or Porky Pig.

Time to go to work now. I mean, time to close this diary and open my other site *facebook??* I really work, ok? Not play-play, ok?

New Year Brings New Life

Thursday, 4 Feb 10, 12.01pm at home

Hi Diary!
How are you doing? There must be something happening to you too recently? Yes? No? Well, it's because there are many things happening to the people around me, my friends and my relatives. Many of them are getting new bf/gf, getting engaged, getting married, getting pregnant, getting bonus, getting salary increase, getting new jobs, getting new home, etc. Life is so happening! This new year really brings good life to many people around me. I am really happy for them, really, deeply.

But now I started to wonder what I am doing now? *You are writing diary*. Oh yea, thanks for reminding me. I mean, I need a breakthrough! *Yes you had one! You just quit your job!* Yea, right, that's my major accomplishment of my life in 2009! *That's what you wanted!* Yes, I wanted it so much. But I need to dress up and put some make-up sometimes. *What???* You know, working at home doesn't encourage me to dress up at all, not to mention having shower. My everyday uniform is pajamas and white socks. My everyday accessory is my thick glasses. If I have a maid at home, probably I will be more encouraged to dress up. Now I feel ugly, I feel fat, I feel stinky, I feel stupid, I feel like a stupid fat ugly stinky auntie, clear enough with my description?

You know what, I started looking for job again now. Yea yea, you can laugh now. I know I am very plin-plan (indecisive). Don't blame me for being plin-plan, it's because I was born as Aquarius! Aqua is water, my mood swings like how the water flows. Seriously, it's because I'm still looking for my true identity! I really admire people who have clear occupations as doctor, or pilot, or even soldier. They don't need to think who they wanna be anymore. As for me, it's too late to be a doctor now. I can't be a pilot too as pilots can't wear thick glasses. Soldier? I easily collapse when I have to run chasing the bus for even 5mins. Anyway, I feel that I can do my own business as part time job now, that's why I wanna use my spare time to do other useful thing (I mean, beside cooking and cleaning).

Diary, there are so many things that I can't tell you right now. But when the time comes, I will tell you, I promise. Hopefully this new year brings me new life too! *What new life for you? It's been more than 1 year in HK, are you addicted to moving country again??* And it will bring new life to you too, whoever reads my diary! ^.^
