So, it is already the start of the new year. Really don't know whether I should be happy about it or not? I feel that 2013 flew by very fast. Like lightning. Don't you? No resolutions what-so-ever. I really don't fulfil them, so I just don't really have them.
Wow, I really do not know if the things that I wanted to do in 2013 has already been done? But whatever it is I had a really nice 2013. I hope you did too! Although, I did not really do much on new year's eve. Neither did anything on new year's itself too. Well, I'm just not the kind of person who goes all out in welcoming the new year. Whoops? I'm a stay in kinda girl, really hates crowds so much. Yeah, I get easily irritated. I just pretty much stayed at the boyfriends place while waiting for him to end work, and trying so hard to stay awake! Haha, yeah I like to sleep early too. But I did went to his relative place though, for a housewarming. I was really nice as it was a different culture. His mum side has Indian blood btw, and it was such a nice new experience for me. Yes, I really enjoyed myself. The food, oh, the food was so amazing! It was so delicious that I took two servings of rice! I don't usually eat much rice, but their curry was so delicious I just gave in to that.
Okay, so I was looking through facebook, and came across this link that a friend shared. It is a guy who blogs about 'Understanding your NSF boyfriend better' that caught my attention. So, I went on and read about it, and I really liked what he wrote about. Yes, as you can already guess, my boyfriend is still serving his National Service. He's in the Army, and it was really difficult for us in the beginning, not that we don't have problems here and there now, but we learn to deal with it better. Does that make sense? Well, it was never easy, I like seeing him, I like spending time with him, but time is always not on his side. He is still undergoing the book in, book out routine. Yeah, I find that annoying, but I learn to understand that he kinda doesn't have a choice. So, I try putting myself in his shoes, he's the one going through all of these, how much time he does not get to himself to be able to do the things that he want to do. I nag lesser and I complain lesser to him. The decisions and plans that he made always has a reason behind it. So, I just have to be thankful and went along with it.
Yes, I can say I am a proud girlfriend. How he managed to not vent his unhappiness at me even after what he had been through the week in camp. It's true, they don't share their problems, but I do constantly ask him if he's okay how was his week and all. They will open up at some point, but I know him well, he does not like talking about his problems with me unless it is really bothering him. And now, he just have 6 more months to go to finally ORD. Yes, I am very happy about it. He has been going on about wanting to work and all. I really am thankful that we managed to pull through it together, we learn to grow together, becoming better individuals together. It takes a lot of patience and understanding, but there's also the part where you have to work together in this. Just a simple text will make the other smile. Also, understand that your boyfriend is in camp and it may be difficult for him to get in touch with his phone. Always have each others' back, and hopefully it'll make things easier.
So, here it is the link to his blog: http://www.derickwjtan.me/
And here is the link to the post about understanding your NSF boyfriend better:
Trust me, you'll like what he writes about, at least I know I do.
Yes, I'm sure some of you might have this same addiction. I just really can't stop watching videos on Youtube. Like I can spend like half a day watching videos after videos and still think that it's not enough and I do it again before I go to bed. And I still watch it even though I'm falling asleep and the phone keeps falling to my face. Them. They are the one's keeping me from getting away from Youtube apart from Ellen.
Hope you'll have a nice start on a new year, with new resolutions.
Till then,
XOXO
