Nobody is perfect. I sure am not. However, in almost 8 months of dating Trader, I’ve realized that he’s not perfect either. Despite his constant hirits that he does his best to be the best boyfriend in the world, he flukes sometimes too. For example, he still mentions his exes in front of me. I […]
Trader asked me what my New Year’s resolutions are. His were to sleep earlier, play less video games and read more books. He’s just started getting addicted to video games and wanted to curb this time-wasting endeavor. “To be better than I was last year,” I told him. “Am not the type of person to make […]
Have you ever been with an unvailable man? Maybe you have but just don’t know it. I’ve come back from a brief weekend stint in Taipei finding out that my friends have a knack of picking men that are somehow unavailable. Weird no? My sister-cum-best-friend has started going out with a 52-year old divorced man who […]
Last week, I joined Trader and his friends on a week-long trip out of town. Trader and I had traveled together before but this is the first time we’ve gone out together for this long. People say that couples who travel together can either 1) get even closer, or 2) kill each other. You can […]
Trader and I had a semi argument last night on our virtual date. As he was not giving me too much attention, I got pissed off and felt that I should be somewhere else. “Why would I be stuck here at home if I can be somewhere else?” I thought. I felt that I was […]
Last year, my parents told me that I can now officially date. Now turning 29, I’m dating this really nice guy, relocated to a new country and are celebrating by parent-sitting this week. My dad is constantly in my back about Trader. “Can he support you? Maybe I’ll need to support him?” He takes great […]
After coming out from a silly argument with Trader, I rang out one of my few good friends from Hong Kong. We met at a nice pasta place in Admiralty’s Pacific Place and it was so nice checking up with him again. That’s what we need to do. When we feel like shit, we meet […]
“How does one get a FUBU?” my innocent boyfriend inquired yesterday as we were cyberdating via Skype, our regular nocturnal activity nowadays given that we’re in a long-distance relationship. He didn’t really want to hear my answer after I’ve told him that I myself had been through one. Guess there is a limit to hearing […]
Before you read this post, I’ll leave you this link. If ever I forget to add this link by the end of the post, you may go back up again and click on it. That’s how I feel about Trader and why I love him. The issue of the week is this — given that […]
Yes, it may seem as if I’m getting a teeny bit lazier, but then again, I just can’t help but rave about this really nice video I saw online. The video clip was entitled “Let yourself feel” from Esteban Diácono and can be found from this site. The song is called Ljósið (try to pronounce […]
The thought of giving up haunts us. Ever since we were young, we were thought to believe that to give up is to admit failure. To discontinue something worthwhile that must be finished, otherwise we wouldn’t had started it in the first place. We feel let down when we give up, as if we’re not […]
Answering the question, “How do you know if he/she is the One?” my mom has her words of wisdom to share: “As you always asked mom – how would I know if the guy is meant for me or not? Well, let me put it this way, he should be the one who can share […]
