my life, my joy, my dreams
Today is such a long day. And I feel like wanting for it to end fast. I wish the clock strikes eight already so I could go home (Bacoor) and rest. I miss our home, our new sanctuary. I know the hubby feels the same. He says it all the time, anyway. Haha.
Right now, I imagine myself lying on the couch while watching TV. I guess I’m just bored to death. I hope traffic is light tonight on our way home. I wanna get home fast. At least, that’s what I want right now.
I noticed that after I got married, my spending habits have changed dramatically. I don’t have the urge to shop now. That or maybe, I’m just not overly exposed to the things women love (e.g. clothes, shoes, jewelries, etc.). And it doesn’t help that we hardly hit the mall these days.
As for the hubby, I think he’s also changed. It’s a given that he’s very fond of gadgets. He’s a techie, after all. If I’m not mistaken, he plans to get an iPhone 5 this year. He also loves looking at cars and model kits when we’re at the mall. But these he can’t buy in an instant as we’re still paying for our car. Haha.
Married couples have different priorities. While some wish to have babies right after the wedding, others plan their lives based on other important factors like career, emotional preparedness and financial independence, etc. As with the hubby and I, we want to have a baby this year or the next. For us, it’s the right timing before we could start planning on realizing our other joint goals in life.
For us, babies are a gift from God. It’s not some gift or prize that you receive when you’ve done something good. It’s more of a gift from the one above that is given to those who seek, for them to cherish forever. I don’t know with you but I always get thrilled by the thought of having our baby someday.
I started the week with one goal in mind: to finish the work that has been sitting on my table for a month now. Deadline is still quite far (first week of May) but somehow, I wanted to finish it to free myself from thinking about it when I’m at home. Yes, I’m a worrier like that.
Well, it seems I have already made a lot of progress. Like I’m done 80%. I still have two days before the work week ends and I hope I could finish everything by then. I love it when I get to do what I have planned to do. Yey!
Oh how time flies! I can’t believe we’re now married for a month! Yes, it’s one awesome month filled with happiness and excitement over the little details in our very young marriage. Wow, I just feel so great today.
happy first month to us!
Life is good, so far, and we’re very thankful to our families and friends who have been showering us with love and support since our big day. Living in a separate house away from family is quite new to my hubby (not so much to me because I lived alone at one point in my college life!) but I can tell he’s coping well with it. I particularly love how we’re adjusting to married life and enjoying every moment of the process.
Summer never fails to make me reminisce of my childhood life in the province. Back then, summer was the most awaited part of the year. At least, for kids like me. We’d usually play under the sun (we’re not conscious of our complexion yet!) wherever our feet take us: our backyard, my playmates’ backyard, on the street, in the middle of the road, in the farms owned by my friends, the riverbank, and those public parks scattered all over town.
My most favorite place to play when I was a kid were the public parks because they had slides, see saws and other playground equipment that could make every child happy. I wish I could still play with all those things at my age now. Hmmmm, why not? I know I still can. Haha.
