the first time i saw him, it was in mac. he didn't even take notice of me i guess. just came down and settled some stuff with hoishek. thought he was pretty cute with the eyes and super long and thick lashes. nice build too. (:

i never thought i would see him again. that's when i got a call from hoishek one saturday afternoon to help coach in a primary school. unprepared, i arrived for my first day at work late. that's when i saw him staring at me when i walked into the school hall that fateful morning.



for many days i would look forward to the coaching sessions i had in the primary school. the fun i had with the kids, other coaches and him. but we barely spoke. he was humorous and strict at the same time. the kids respected him, so do the rest of us.

gradually, hints and more hints. surprises one after another. he finally pluck enough courage to ask me out on valentines. and i got brave and accepted.



"it's my honor" he would say.

the beginning is always so innocent and fairytale-like. many will yearn for days like these to last forever. mine wasn't the exception. don't get me wrong, we're still having the time of our lives together now.



i can never remember a time of my life that i was ever so delirious yet heartbroken at the same time such as this. we would tease and play like children at the playground, but quarrel insensibly like any normal hormone raging teen-adult would do.

we do have our rules for each other. simple enough to understand, but hard to accomplish. his rule for me,

to be an understanding girlfriend

when it comes to where we are now, i'm not sure how many girls would willingly go through what i've been through and survived. really thank those who've been around to listen, care and support. thank God for giving friends and blessing me with courage.

my rule for him? i have many rules to be exact. demanding, willful, nonsensical, ridiculous you name it. a tough road for him, girlfriend, his family, work, he juggled them skillfully and pacified the biggest baby in his life.



still, despite mentioning during countless occasions, he is the one who dotes and pampers me the most. the male chauvenist that believes firmly that a man must provide for his woman. this man, he spoils me much. gifts, fancy restaurants, paying for my shopping and the list goes on. how did i find such a man?



i remembered the time when i met with some trouble while i was quitting jc. cried and i called him. calmed me down and taught me how to handle it and succeeded. that was the time i knew i could fully rely on him. though sometimes, he can get tough and harsh with the words he use.

events that'll always be etched in my mind,

1. amazing race
2. repainting his room
3. genting trip
4. cruise

and the many other stuff that we do like shopping at he pan during CNY. not sure if it's possible for the coming one and the next.

it's been a year and almost ten months now. but he'll be leaving for NS coming friday. unfortunately, it happens that this entire week will be filled with my mid semestral tests. as much as i want to spend time with him, my studies will pull us apart.

really not in the mood to study for the papers cause i know i can't accompany him into camp on his enlistment day. and that's all i can think about. i feel like making full use of this week to just be by his side. movies, chatting, eating anything will do. i want to wake up beside him every morning for these last few days.



the photos we took on the cruise we went last month.


): it's so unfair. why friday?



i'll miss you so much.
