love
i just went to watch sex and the city with the girls, and as usual everytime i finish an episode or a series, it never fails to set me thinking. what more to mention the movie.
i wrote about how amazing alwin was when exams and work was taking a huge toil on me and i promised to write bout it coz i think i want this to have a footprint in my life.
towards the last couple of months of exams stress and the struggle to keep up with new work, there was this day i sat down to take a breather, only to realise that this man in my life for the past 5 years has been quietly supporting my every decision and helping to make them happen.
when i finished my mock exams 2 months back, i came out of the exam hall feeling like sh*t and stress was written all over my face. he came to pick me up and i would suppose he knew i was in that instable state. he gently kissed me and told me he arranged for something so i could destress. as he slowly drove into the carpark of the singapore flyer, i was half wondering what could the singapore flyer possibly do to empty my tension completely. but no, it wasnt the singapore flyer, he brought me for a jolly good massage.
and yes, it wasnt something extraordinary, but it was something practical and something i needed very badly.
towards the exams, i was studying every damn day. i would finish work at 6pm (that was still the lull period then), reached home, take a nap, wake up at 9, and proceeded to study till 3-4am in the morning. EVERYDAY. i swear i almost died. yes, including the weekends. and my boyfriend will drop by every now and then with small little goodies that i could munch while the studying is in progress.
over the weekends, he would wake me up, drive me to the library to study and will wait for me to finish before coming to pick me up for dinner and sending me to macs to study again. during the night, he will bring mags, newspapers, portable dvd players to watch his fav shows, while accompanying me so i wouldnt be alone until 4am. on days when the macs are fully packed with car forummers and kids running around, he will drive me around until we find a quiet spot for me to begin my war with CFA.
he ban me from coffee after i suffered chest pains from too much caffeine, and i will sulk. but he will quietly go to his kitchen, make a cup, come in to the room and say "one mouth only ah."
he would give me a huge hug before i turn in for the day and tell me everything will be ok, and i should rest and not exhaust myself. a gentle peck. i love you. good night.
he did all of this constantly for the past 2 months. not alot u may think. but its the effort he takes and makes that allowed me to have full attention on my books not worrying bout any other things in my life.
i used to ask the newly weds before they got married, how they knew that he or she was the one. i have been asking myself this question for a very long time and none of them could give me a suitable answer. or simply one which i was convinced with.
today, sex and the city told me. that you wouldnt know if he or she will be the one, but its just the love that you have for each other, so much, that only we can work towards making sure that what we dont want to happen, will not happen. its a risk.
and it might be just one that im willing to take.
