time

The sheer boredom at home drove me to do some diggin' around...
I took out my old diary (which i'd faithfully kept, thank goodness!) last nite.
And my, what a memory trip it was.
I kept the same diary from 2004-2006, and what a flood of scenes!

From the day i returned from Oz, started work, changed jobs, was single and bored, to the new colleagues & frens, to re-establishing my Singaporean life, to the crushes & episodes at Reuters, to meeting Terence.... and how our r/s evolved from there.

It was really really nice reading all that.
It seemed a lifetime away.
What i could not believe was.... Terence mentioned marriage 1 month into our relationship.
That was fast.
And how i decided to give up the stressful shiftwork after we got married.
And how he proposed.
And how i prepared for all these, fashion-wise.
I think i bought a new outfit for every date we had, given the relatively short time we were dating (7months) before we got engaged.
And all the old crap we argued about and how utterly sweet & serious he was.

Now, we're actually parents!
It's just too fast.
This Thursday will be our 2 1/2 year anniversary.
In this time, we have got together, made each other v happy, got married, bought a flat, threw a wedding, survived a horrid pregnancy + had a baby!
It is only possible becos our love and commitment to each other were so strong and rock-solid.
I've never had that kinda security & certainty in any r/s before.
Where you can throw anything at us, and we'll still take it.

He's my rock.
I feel v loved, v blessed and extremely lucky.
