My family went to Oman last week. I iz jealous!
Today, Alfiyan brought my favourite dish (Tom Yam U-Mian) over to my house for lunch while I was still preparing for my exam at 5pm.
Just thought I’d jot it down in case I forget that he is actually an awesome boyfriend to have.
Thanks baby, your thoughtful gesture made having to sit through a 2-hour exam a lot more bearable than plain old cereal and bread would have. For that reason alone, I love you like crazy.
There are other reasons, too, of course, like you looking all adorable and silly here:
I would list all the other reasons but I’m too distracted from watching Grey’s Anatomy plus love was never about tangible things like lists, anyway.
Bye, then!
So I’m feeling bummed today. I can’t really pinpoint what exactly is causing it, but the fact that my shoes didn’t quite match my outfit definitely contributed, as did wasting $5 on a drink that I barely had three sips of, and since my boobs are feeling rather tender these last couple of days, hormones are a quite likely cause too I suppose.
On another note, I bought these today:
They’re for my trip to the States that’s coming in two weeks or so. I’m having serious trouble deciding what to wear during the flight, btw – 21 hours (or more??) of travel is NOT a joke. I want to wear leggings, but I share only one pair with my sister and that is super worn out. Skinny jeans will be the next logical choice and God knows I have a ton of them but the problem is, WHICH one should I choose? What top should I wear? What bag should I use as my carry-on??
STRESS OK!
Oh btw I’m presently in the middle of my final exams. I guess that could also be a contributing factor towards my immense bummed-outness and lethargy I’m experiencing. SIGHHH THIS ENTRY IS NOT MAKING ME FEEL BETTER. And neither is Alfiyan not calling me. 
I shall go. Bye!
I had a strange SMS conversation with Hanis today.
Me: What time do you think you will reach?
Hanis: 20mins.
Me: Actionnn.
Hanis: What? In what way is that an act of gloating?
Me: In a way that only the gloatee will know…
I thought it would end there. But noooo.
Hanis: But an approximation of time of arrival is not fact. One cannot gloat if there is no confirmation that one will arrive at the time stipulated. However, the concept of thinking that someone is gloating suggests that you are going to be later than I (true, I was going to be later haha). And this may increase the likelihood of a gloat. But the lack of facts presented at the point of my response renders my gloat mute at the time.
Me: UMM….
As if that wasn’t enough, I received this from him some time later:
Ou est vous maintenant? Je suis au haw par villa. J’arrive a l’universite dans cinq minute. C’est froid dans l’autobus. Brr..
Yeah he really was on a roll to prove my lack of intelligence today, wasn’t he?
On another note: Never start your day with a run without drinking or having some form of sugar in your blood first. Just don’t. Trust me.
I think my girlfriend is the cutest girl I have ever met.
I love her SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
Sometimes I really feel like tearing my hair out from all the times you make me upset but I know you probably feel the same way for all the times I refuse to calm down and realize that you’re actually trying to make things better.
Thanks for always trying to make things better.
Sorry I’m fat.

So this entry is like, totally for the purpose of vanity because all I’m going to do is show off my favourite running top by Stella McCartney. Bought it for relatively cheap at the Adidas outlet quite some time ago but hardly got any use out of it since then – the weather has always been too warm for me to run comfortably in that top. Since the rainy/cold season has started, though, I figure I might as well make my money worth it. 
Sorry if all the perspiration is gross – I wanted to take a pre-run photo but my mom had me send food to the neighbour’s so I didn’t have time.
The front (sort of):
The back (also the reason why I LOVE this top):
The X-Men gang will totally call me up after this entry to get me to join their team.
OK.
/end self-obsession.
I was watching Oprah’s Viewer’s Best Surprises today and there was this part where she surprised Gayle with Josh Groban, who sang a beautiful song that I can identify with in its entirety. I don’t know why, or how it is even possible, but lately I’ve been feeling more in love than I usually am – and this song just further intensifies it.
And this journey that we’re on
How far we’ve come and I celebrate every moment
And when you say you love me,
That’s all you have to say
I’ll always feel this way.
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment, I know why I’m alive
When you say you love me
Do you know how I love you?
Right now, as I’m allowing this song to consume me, I am reminded again of all the reasons why I love my darling boyfriend, and one of them is because he always gives me reassurance whether or not he agrees with my actions. This includes my tremendous obsession with designer jeans, which has thus far caused me to spend hundreds of dollars that I could’ve put to better use. Which is why I know it’s wrong for me to get upset when Alfiyan wants to buy a $500 mountain bike, because why shouldn’t I give him the same treatment I’ve been enjoying myself?
I do love him to bits and pieces after all.
So yes, if a bicycle is what he wants, then I will give him the support that he needs.
… but, um, I don’t think I can do the same for his desire for a scuba diving license (dangerous, much??). Sorry.
Ok bye!
