Woke up early but just to kiss Hero goodbye. Went back to bed almost immediately. Woke up at 8am with the intention to study. Rummaged in my luggage. Horror. I brought all other lecture notes BUT the ones that I need. I must have left it at home because I was reviewing it before I left!!!!
Ok, so no fret, because everything is also in the laptop, right? To my dismay, realized I forgot to bring my Australian plug adaptor and my Malaysian-plugged laptop will not work. To add insult to injury, I took out the battery because I didn’t want to have ‘unecessary weight’ in my luggage (my cheap flight restriction was hand luggage less than 10kg).
Pulled hair, stomp feet, scratch back, kick air and punched pillow until I’m tired.
To effectively manage my anger and frustration, I embarked on meditation. And I only woke up from my “meditation” at 1pm. Ehem. It IS meditation. Deep one. It worked. Depression and frustration significantly reduced.
Raid pantry to find natural medication for depression and frustration. Read: chocolate. My hunky Hero have generously supplied me with two bags of natural medication chocolate chip cookies (ehem). I have gone through one from the first night I landed, and now I have half a bag of that and a full bag of another different kind.
Needless to say, medication worked. Ehem.
Switch on TV and raid the fridge to find what to make out for dinner. Realized that there will still be too much ingredients after dinner and Hero will not be able to use it all. He won’t have time to cook. So in addition to dinner (spaghetti bolognaise, potato salad and buttered mushroom and pork sausages omellete), I made extra servings of fried rice. Doubled bolognaise sauce too.
Hero came home while I was in the middle of whipping up the omellete. Surprised that he was home early but not complaining! He was hungry the moment he came in…why does that makes me happy?
Had dinner on the balcony, overlooking the lake. Marvellous. Commented and laughed on each other’s growing belly. Discussion on gyms and exercise equipments.
While he showered, made coke chicken and vegetables stir fry to freeze, together with the fried rice. He was impressed and pleased and that is all that matters to a Stepford Wife.
Went to bed early because we have to wake up at 4am.
Strangely that night we both kept on waking up to go to pee. Don’t know what’s going on?
Wake up at 4am the next morning to catch the 6am flight.
Man, the kind of thing we do for love. Tsk…tsk…tsk…









Chris and I had a couple of times over the last eight years when we were many miles apart. It’s so hard. So hard. But I do think it makes you know for sure if you love the person, rather than just loving being with someone. If you didn’t love Hero, you’d find a local beau. That is beautiful.
Oh, and Coke Chicken? When are you starting a food blog?
Its wonderful that he came home ealry and you guys were able to eat together before you left. Haha and I love the fact that you added food into this blog.
