2nd entry of the day. Think you can guess how free I am at work, or else I wont be able to do all this when I am in office.

Am still trying to find time to upload all my wedding photos and honeymoon photos to a website. It’s not that I am very busy. It’s just that there r always things to keep me occupy when I am at home. Especially now that Poki is ard and she’s always keen to follow me ard.

Weekends still seem to be too short for me. Always feel that I hv not rested enough. I need to find more time!!

I find that I tend to nag more at J nowadays. He complains abt it. Haha. But then, there r always so many things that I can nag at him. Things like forgetting to switch off the light, not being initiative enough to keep the clothes after I’ve folded them, not changing into a clean set of clothes b4 going to bed… the list goes on. Well, maybe I shd nag less? Okok, I know I ought to be good to him. Haha.

I feel that he is more willing to talk to my parents than I were to talk to his parents. He will find topics to talk to my parents when I go home and I am very glad for that. For me, I dont really make the first move to talk to his parents. His parents are quite good to me but I guess no matter how good they r to me, I will still feel distant to them. Afterall we r not related to one another by blood. Sometimes I feel that I should do more to improve the relationship with his parents but that is all. I dont do anything. No action. 

I know he gives in to me most of the time and he dotes on me while I’m the more calculative party. Take last Sat for instance. His family wanted to go to Vivo City to settle their cableTV acct. I didnt want to go becoz I normally go back to my parents’ home on Sat evenings as my siblings go back on that day too. So I told him he can go ahead with his family while I go home alone. In the end, he rescheduled his family matter to Sunday. 

Sometimes I get a little irritated when his mum calls to ask if we r going back for dinner on Sat becoz I expect them to know that we will go back for dinner on Sunday and not Sat. I said I expect them to know becoz so far, 90% of the time we will go back to my parent’s plc on Sat. But still, his mum will still call to ask on Sat afternoons. Another reason I dont want to go to his parents’ plc on Sat evening is becoz, if we were to go back on Sat evening, his mum will ask us to go back again on Sunday for dinner. 

Few months back, his mum would call him on wkdays to ask if he wanted to go back for dinner. Most of the time, he declined becoz he knows I wont want to go (I think he knows). But he couldnt reject her everytime and I know it is difficult for him to say no to her. So we did go back once or twice. Nowadays his mum didnt call anymore, probably becoz she knows he is busy with his part-time studies and busy workload.

Sometimes I cant stand it when his mum misses him too much. She comments at times that he has not gone home so long when in fact, we do go back every Sunday for dinner. I think she is just not used to him being away from her. Perhaps, another reason I dont like it is becoz my mum takes it quite well that all her 3 children are away from her. So in comparision, I find his mum kind of exaggerating.

Ok. Stopping here. 1.5 hrs away from knocking off.

Tuesday, 1631 hrs.

perhaps sometimes they feel threatened that their son is now tending towards another woman. *shrug* it seems like a common thing I hear ard me.. heh..

hey i totally know what u mean about his mother. i think she needs time. and a lot of times i am like u too, i wld compare and feel that my parents are taking things better than his mum. but i am worse than u. i also dun feel like doing anything, no action, but i live with her, and she kind of tries hard to want to make me feel at home, but i dun do anything in return :s jj

oh and i think u shld nag at him less haha :p well try diff methods than nagging. nagging is really no gd i think, once in a while ok, but they can get accumulated and cause pple to feel very irritated. jj
