10.10.10!

So, it’s one of those –once in a lifetime- moments again! How did you spend your 10/10/10? Do share your moments with me as I am super uber busy body =p

I.. went to the beach. Incidentally, today is also a very special day for they boyf and I, so we just decided to do something that we both liked. Relax!

I’m so psyched about blogging these days that I had to post this up asap. Felt totally retarded today, not being able to be online for just half a day. I’m currently waiting in the car for the boyf to settle some things..

We were at Mordialloc earlier today. The weather was too tempting to just stay indoors. So we took a drive to the beach, about 20 minutes away..

I absolutely loved it. The sun, sea, sand. The people, crown, energy. Exhilarating. Relaxing. Absolutely, awesome.

So, as promised. Photos.
 

  All excited!

Mordialloc Beach from my viewpoint..

   The Boyf

      My tatt from my point of view.

     The boyf being totally anal about sunscreen! Australia only has SPF 30, I’m surprised. Back home, we get up to SPF 150. But, I usually settle for SPF 50.

The boyf said he wanted to go for a swim. 30 seconds later, walked back, and said “brr, too cold”. Totally reminded me of Michelle Tanner on Full House S2.
 

  

What with more clouds than sunlight, we decided to walk down the shops for some lunch instead. Discovered Big Mouth Burger Co. He had a massive beefburger, I had chicken wraps. AWESOME. Highly recommended by yours truly, yo.

   

Cam-whoring moments. Althoug, I doubt it’s called cam-whoring IF I’m not the one holding the camera, snapping away photos of myself, right?

While we were sitting my the rocks near the jetty, chattin away watching the sun slowly set.. Something short of a drama was happening right in front of us. What with all the high school kids hanging out at the beach, we were bound to see some slow moving actions anyway =b Boy likes girl, girl likes boy, lets find some reason to.. =p
PS. Embossed the photos for their privacy’s sake, grin.

Hands touch.. Eyes meet. Used the boyf as an excuse to snap more photos of them..
As you can see, they’ve moved in closer, lol.

Finally. At this point, I was staring at them for at least 3 minutes already, not even counting the drama of the boy trying to pull the girl into the ice-cold water, girl struggles not to get wet, boy pulls harder, girl screams, boy tries to impress her, she acts like she doesn’t want to be there, but we all know she’s enjoying the attention from him, yah-dee-daa . . .

.

All this while, I was holding the camera ever-so-un-suspiciously,  saying to the boyf “oh, snogg already!”

.

And finally..

SNAP!

Boo ya! I am goood.

This is the boyf being embarrassed by what I’ve just done. As you might have been able to tell by this very cutee photo of him.
But still, he loves me =)

Mother Nature has rendered me speechless.
I am too much in awe of her beauty and grace.

Ever wondered..  if life as we know it looks like this?

 

Ahh, loves.

Discriminated.

Today, the boyf and I hit the city for a day out. 


And I got verbally bullied by 2 girls who don't look older than 15. 
It's my first ever encounter with discrimination after so many months and because it's so amusing, I didn't even think of being upset about it.


We were on the escalator, carrying our shopping bags (went to DFO, Ahem!), in the train station and just chatting and these 2 girls came out of nowhere, pushing through us and our bags, and saying things like how I'm nothing but an "Asian slut". They said more things, but thats all I managed to catch. And if they boyf hadn't reacted so quickly, I wouldn't have realized that they were referring to me. I think with all the bags in his hand, he only managed some "piss off, fat bitch" or something.. I was over it before we reached our platform. AND THEY WERE THERE, verbally abusing me again! And once again, I was honest to God too amused by this scene to be upset about it.


And the psychologist in me kept wondering, 
"What exactly drives people to act in such spiteful ways to random people on the streets?"


I suppose I can only blame their parents, huh? 


I feel nothing but sorry for them.

That Perfect Date.

I’ve always believed that I’m a hopeless romantic.

Not that I’m the romantic one in any way, can’t say I’ve ever made a romantic gesture before. But I’ve always wanted a crazy romantic person who’d spoil me with never ending proclamations of his love for me and shower me with all that sweet nothings.

A couple of weeks ago, I couldn’t have been more sure that I’ve found one.

It was a private occasion, of course. Just to celebrate something between the both of us.. But I wasn’t expecting much. I would have been satisfied with just a little dinner for two someplace decent. But no, this darling of mine decided to surprise me with something nicer than a candlelight dinner for two.

Place: No 35 @ Sofitel on Collin’s Street.

 

The suddenly romantic boyf who swept me off my feet once again.
(Having his entrée)

And here’s me, photo taken by a less than perfect photographer, of course.

My darling devouring his, brisket.

Me and my fish, which I’d like to proudly say that I managed to feed up some.
(For those of you who don’t know, he eats NO seafood whatsoever, except John West’s Smoked Tuna, which apparently, isn’t fishy –_-).

Dessert – Orange & Pistachio. Yummeh.

Check out the view.

Here’s my rosé! The boyf has to drive so he had a Ginger-ish mocktail –_- 
We had a great waiter, unfortunately, not as great a photographer =( oh well.

Here’s to memories. First, of many more.

The Child in My Man

We finally went to watch the "Clash of the Titans".


Being a working night, the cinema was pretty much empty with the 2 of us + 6 strangers. But it was good. So we were comfortable.


Midway through the movie, the boyf put his arm around me and I felt safe. So, so very safe and so very secure. It's like I belong there in his arms. 


After the movie when the lights came back on I was just admiring the boy whose hands I was holding on to tightly like my life depended on it. The way he makes me feel is just unearthly. Such a man he is.


Until we reached the staircase, of which he let go of my hand just so he could slide down the bar by the side of the stairs. When he turned back, there was a grin on his face as if satisfied. And I stood there, admiring the child in him which I'm so very crazy about.

BGRS

I have often wondered about the point of being in boy-girl relationships (bgrs). 
I mean, why does it happen, why does it have to happen and what happens next.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not an emo person who's always been unhappy that I've never been in a relationship or the such. I am also not one who'd say "I'm so happy being single" because I can't find a boy.
Not at all. That will be a lie- straight out.


I've been in my own fair share of relationships. In-and out. Out- then in. I believe it's healthy in a way because with each person you've dated, you learn a little bit more about yourself. Now, I'm not complaining about my past relationships. They've all been fun and relatively healthy and I was happy then, too. So, no complaints about most of my past, no-siree. I daresay that it helped shape me into the person that I am today and the person I can be for my family, friends and those important to me. 


But last night something happened between the boyf and I that changed my impression of bgrs forever. My definition of a bgrs prior to this was as I was brought up. Making sure that this person is (apart from the chemistry between us) loving and caring, he's got to be loyal and able to provide for me in our future together. Of course there's a whole other list, but hey, I'm sure its pretty generic.


What I've been missing out is a friend in the boys I've dated in the past. It's always been boyfriends. But a companion is defined as being first friend then partner, not the other way around. I've always missed that and it's a shame because I would have appreciated my partners more in the past if they were my companions.  Now, however.. Is not a time for regret because I'm thrilled that I've realized this now. 


I've found a friend in the boyf. He makes me laugh and sing and skip without having me to feel silly about it. He joins in my singing with his adorable out-of-tune songs and takes bigger steps everytime I skip around to match my pace. He never puts me down and always laugh at my jokes. But most of all, he listens to me like your best friend would and never says that my thoughts are unnecessary. 


So last night ..we laughed a the silliest things and giggled at every movement the other person made.  I don't even remember what was so funny anymore, just the fact that we couldn't stop laughing. I was beyond happy, ecstatic even because he lets me be the child that I am without judging me negatively. 


And that, peeps.. is what I like to believe as a strong foundation of a good bgrs.

The BoyF. Drunk.

So, here I was waiting like the good girlfriend I am, thinking that the Boyf was having fun @the Nott. (More about it when I can, it's the infamous pub down the road). But no, he got drunk somewhere else. Here's an exhibit of his drunkardness. Lol. Because he never does that!

And he is oh-so-cute!

Ahh, loves.

More photos of the Boyf & I

Admittedly, I’ve been neglecting my blog.
That’s only because so many things has happened lately.
And I’m not here to update you about my life.. Or the major parts anyway.
At least, not yet.
But here are some awesome photos of the Boyf and I while he was here.

Left behind, again.

Last night, he left for the third time.


Now, I am well aware that he did not leave me nor this relationship.
All he did was return home. 


But I am once again left behind.


It's gonna be a long week, prolly a long month. Maybe longer.
