Falling in love
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007I’m married, so am I nuts to say that I miss the feeling of falling in love?
I’m married, so am I nuts to say that I miss the feeling of falling in love?
Today, I had to attend a brekkie social meeting with people from my office. As it is our first meeting, we were asked to introduce ourselves and name our favourite band, favourite movie and name of our pets.
I found myself saying that “Everything but the girl” is my favourite band and “The Virgins Suicide” my favourite movie. Everyone gave me a blank look. Literally, I could hear a pin dropping. *sigh. While the hot favourite bands were Pearl Jam & U2 (This girl said she love Meatloaf. HUH? That’s Social Suicide!!). Others popular favourite movies were, Shawshank Redemption and Schindler’s List. What a load of poseurs.
Well… people might think I’m a poseur too coz they don’t know what I’m talking about. Who cares.
Honestly, there is no band in the world that is my favourite. And no movie in the world that I can watch it every single day. I still don’t know why I said those were my favourite.

I had a nightmare last night/this morning.
KL and I were trying to gain entry to this weird happening place. I flashed my wedding band and said, “We are married. See?” The huge bouncer with the dark sunglasses, pointed at KL and barked, “No! That’s not your wedding band!”
KL got angry and yelled, “This is my wedding band!!”
The rude bouncer then wrestled with KL’s finger and pulled the ring out and showed it to me. It’s not his wedding band! It’s not the same design and the engraving inside although had my name, it was not the same font.
At that moment, another huge bouncer (identical twins?) came out, grabbed me by my arm and dragged me thru the velvet ropes, leaving KL standing at the same spot shocked.
I remember that I stood on the other side, separated by the velvet ropes, shocked with the sudden change of events. Next I remembered, kicking, screaming and crying into the dark place and I last saw KL still negotiating with the first bouncer to be with me. Then I probably woke up at this point.
On my way to work this morning, I thought about my dream/nightmare. Could be that I have been suppressing the feelings about the loss of ring affect me so much that it just escalated? Or could it be that my conscious mind is showing me what would happen when I die because KL is not Christian and only I’m allowed into heaven?

We went to Gippsland - Venus Bay. It was gorgeous on Saturday but we didn’t swim or tan. Instead, we went exploring and decided to drive home to save money instead. So that night, we had gourmet pizza and went home to sleep. Sunday morning, we went for a great brekkie and headed back there again.
The sun was hot but we had SPF50. KL bought a boogie board and tried body boarding. While, I laid in the sand with my sunnies and magazine. KL came running to the shore. Breathless he muttered these words - “I lost my wedding band.”
He then rushed back to the sea diving in and out. Needle in a haystack. We’ve spoken about this before - should anyone of us loses our wedding band, we would just replace it. Because it’s material and it doesn’t represent our love. Our lives and love for each other more important. So I told him, we’ll just get a replacement the next day and carry on.
Since we lost his wedding band in Venus Bay, do you think that Venus don’t like married man in her waters? Okay, I’m full of crap!
Why one married couple get excited being pregnant, while we are so damn fucking relieved (we went to celebrate) to have my period after just 4 days of being late?
Snake eats Crocodile and now Octopus eats shark.
What’s next? Whatever happened to the foodchain?

Guess what this is! One Dollar will be given to the person with the correct answer.
Clue 1: Not from my nose!
Clue 2: Eeek!

Why is it that just after 3 months of marriage you discover that your partner might be balding? Coincidence?
Damn it! Goods Sold cannot be refunded!
Happy 3 months Anniversary!!
I just found a link for free knickers, so I turned to KL sitting beside me and said, “I don’t care. I’m getting one for you in MY size.”
KL turned to look at me confused and then I smack my forehead and remembered, “Cannot! Same address! Aiyah, why don’t you live somewhere else?”
Did I just threw my husband out of the house? KL has no clue what happened.
*Damn! I forgot it’s our 2nd month anniversary. Aunty Anna emailed to remind me.
After the wedding, we have been hearing from other people that KL’s parents wanna come here to do some sort of business. Everytime someone tells us that, we’ll straight away pull a long face and be grouchy the rest of the day. Why is it that some people just don’t understand the main reason why we move so far away?
Strangely, KL was so supportive and encouraging should Daddy wanna come here to be with me but on the other hand, he can’t seemed to run far away or fast enough to avoid his parents.
I’m not sure if it’s because I haven’t told my dad the actual plan or maybe he is just in denial. He seemed to think that KL is coming back soon and we’ll live happily ever after here in hot smelly Singapore.
Worse of all, he always say things like, “if KL is here, we’ll finish all the food.” or “when KL comes back, we go Bangkok together.”
Just about 2 weeks ago, he said, “if you win the lottery, buy that maisonette opposite our house with KL.”
Huh? I thought I had already told him that KL and me wanna reside in Australia? He do know that KL is trying to get a job there. I’m really confused.
Then, he asked me today, ” so, when is KL coming back.”
I surrender!!! *throw hands in air*

Why is it that we live in a busy city, surrounded with unfamiliar faces in the crowd and we still feel so lonely and empty?
