It has been exactly one month since my last post on this blog. A lot can happen in one month. For those who don’t already know, I have a girlfriend now. LOL. And if you don’t already know that, then you probably also don’t know that she left this morning for the Netherlands for work… for a year.
So there. I just got back from Anilao now and thought of posting this. Earlier this morning I was looking for a count-up timer (reverse of a countdown timer of course), to mark the days since she left. Sadly, I don’t think there are any available on the net, and even if they were, they wouldn’t really work so well since the counter would reset whenever I turned the computer off or restarted it. And yes, I’m too lazy to actually do that manually so, never mind.
I wouldn’t really call my day rough, but, well, maybe the fatigue from the last two weeks without proper sleep in setting in, and that’s probably making me just a wee bit emotional. I actually found myself (in between talking to people and fussing over construction) counting the number of hours that had gone since Cat’s plane took off, and the number of hours remaining til her plane would land. It is now 8:42 in the evening, and she’s still got about 5 hours til she gets to Amsterdam. It’s a little surprising because I honestly didn’t think I’d be that bothered by it. But yeah, maybe going to Anilao reminded me of what I won’t have around for the next 12 weeks or so. 12 weeks isn’t that long if you think about it, but then I guess its kind of sad to have to let go and wait some more for something I’ve been waiting for since God knows when. But all good, I figured that its a good way to actually solidify this… relationship (it feels weird to use that word now), by being apart like this. This way, we really need to focus and pay attention to this, rather than just settling and being swept away as most new couples tend to get. New couples. Right. LOL. Well, bottomline for now is it’s been 12 hours since I last saw her and I miss her already (how keso).
So this is a kind of vague entry, I shall explain more later or tomorrow or when I find time or if I find internet at Anilao (I’m going back later at midnight rather than tomorrow morning).
Cat, hope you clicked the link to this and are reading this. LOL. Leave a message or something, I’ll try to get online or whatever as soon as I can. Take care!
