let's only count the goods...

I always am at a loss of words when ppl ask me general questions starting with "how"..
e.g. How you doing? How are you? How's work? ...

I would usually answer "errr..okay lor..fine...good... like that lor.." dun have anything much to add unless something drastic has happened.

so the same goes with "how's you and naz?" Apparently the lack of vocab n awkwardness get ppl to start guessing that something's wrong and probe. Nothing's wrong really. just that dun want to sound like i'm gushing or what. cool ma. lol.

yep...but babu's question got me thinking why I couldn't immediately list out just all the good stuff that happened in this new start of this familiar, comfortable relationship.

As my mind thought through how to answer babu, my lips uncontrollably wanted to blurt out all the little tiny trivial quibbles we had over stupid things... how he likes to leave his stuff on my room floor....how he forgets to message me when he's lan gaming.... how he is so atas and doesn't like the food in kopitiam..... so on n forth.

So just as I was taking my bath just now, I took that 10 mins to think of stuff which my evil shit did that I really appreciated.. amazingly and luckily, the list wasn't empty. haha.

1. I like how he shows his subtle support in events I organise or take part in.
He came to watch my netball match which lasted only 2o min at Jurong. I was surprised that he actually wanted to come coz i sincerely thot it wansn't worth the effort. I was secretly glad of coz. heh.
He came to vote for my booth when I was involved in the Public Service Exhibition. It was during lunch and he went out of the way to just drop by for a totaly of 10 min before he rushed back to office.

2. I like how he has been trying to learn hokkien and chinese so that he can communicate with my parents.
We dedicate the first 1-2 hours of each of our meeting to speaking only chinese.

3. I like how he spends a day helping me to clear up my junky computer and then packing it nicely by the side to make way for my laptop. I gave up watching him at work and started watching TVB.

4. I like how he patiently waits for me when I'm late by gaming at the arcade. ** errr... mochi...he's enjoying himself too...so no need to appreciate so muchz hor. -_- **


5. I like his patience in general. When you've got a dam impatient brother, you'll really appreciate this quality.

6. I like how he doesn't mind whiling his time in office while waiting for me to finish a meeting which wasn't even confirmed till the very last minute. It was 9.30pm when we met for dinner and we were supposed to meet at 7pm.

7. I like how he puts up with my pretty periodic PMSal mood. I know it when I'm feeling snappish and I know I show it. gomen ne! heh.

8. I like how he manages to calm the gan jiong-pessimistic spider down when handling unplanned changes and situations.

9. I like how he's willing to know my friends while I'm just too lazy to socialise with his.

10. I like how he can put up and still keeps a straight face with my indecisiveness when it comes to different colours, food, size, shapes, textures, designs, flavours.... the indecisiveness gets worse when I'm in a grumpy mood. oops.

11. I like how he is always so enthusiastic about the impromptu activities I suggest e.g. sudden craving for jogging, cycling at Pulau Ubin, swimming...
I'll regret after suggesting when I feel a sudden pang of laziness. Can't dampen the mood coz he's already all set to go...-_-




thought for 10min and typed for an hour!!! WTH

Time for dinner!
