Had a mini family gathering yesterday. All our parents and my uncle came and I had a hard time cooking dinner and washing the dishes thereafter. Everything ended at 9+ when I finally cleaned up my messy kitchen. Final conclusion> this kitchen is not meant to prepare a feast..just a simple, quiet dinner is all it can take.
I don't think the dinner suits everybody's liking, as usual my mum is complaining from beginning to end...mum and dad din eat much and poor me and dear gotto finish most of the dishes. The feeling suxs when you've spent so much effort but is not appreciated. Dear moved in most of his belongings which is still sitting in the foyer area...think he'll have a hard time clearing them since he only have a wardrobe space and a small cabinet. Hehe...think he'll end up throwing most of the stuff away. Well, after dinner as mummy left, I can't help but start to feel a little sad...I tink its becos I miss her and I miss my room. I miss the times when I can go home and dinner is ready...all I have to do is finish my dinner, wash my own dishes and watch tv on my bed (haha, i know..lazy pig). But now, I have to cook my own dinner, wash all the dishes and clean the house after dinner...arrgghhh.
Twinkle misses mummy too...saw tears in her eyes after she left. She still isn't toilet trained..so I have to confine her to the kitchen again. If only humans can speak dog language. By the way, I have always been tempted to try head and shoulders on twinkle...cos she got bad dandruff problem...so I did my research and found on some websites that it is ok for dogs to use head and shoulders...some owners commented it really help in their dog dandruff problem..so I will be buying that tonite and trying it on twinkle tomorrow! Hope it works...
I am beginning to miss the process of my wedding preparation..I mean everybody that is getting married hopes it can be over soon, but for me, I enjoy the preparation stage...the anticipation as well as the progress. You get to have friends asking if you need help, and attention from everybody around you. How else can you enjoy such things during normal times? Well, since I have another 6mths more to go..I am going to enjoy every moment of it...but pretty worried too cos there're so many things not done.
Will be starting our first Marriage Preparation Course this week with Pastor Alex. He is kind enough to let us join his group even though we don't belong to that church. I really hope the course will benefit us in our route to marriage. Throughout the preparation of our Love Nest, there were several arguements and disagreement...but somehow things changed for me..in the past, I'll probably call it quits at the slightest quarrel...but now I find myself able to forgive and forget sooner then I expected. Thanks to dear who always have a way for making me smile after a quarrel even though I am at fault (the last time he bought two boxes of chocos - imitation of Porky biscuit and a big heart shape lollypop with the word "I love u" for me.)...I guess we still have lots to learn to have a perfect marriage. Like the saying goes, "wedding is made in heaven, marriage is built on earth." Besides tolerance, understanding is very impt for a couple to stay together...learning to appreciate each other for the slightest things they've done..pausing in your hectic life once in a while to give each other some kind words or a hug or a kiss. I don't want my marriage to turn sour after a perfect wedding...so definately have to put in due effort to make it last happily ever after. Shucks...talking crap again..okie, back to work.
