F-O-F-Our

So we are four today. I thought of posting our first ever picture together as an ‘item’ but then I took a second look at the picture and decided against it. It’s amazing what four years can do to you – physically and emotionally. I looked 15 and not 20 in the picture. I looked really plain and well, fresh. And more importantly, I was as thin as a stick. And so was my other half! So it’s not wise to post a before and after picture just so that people can actually note our significant ‘bodily’ changes. Yes, as our relationship grew, our waistlines grew too. Unless of course if you promise to shower me with only praises of how much better I look NOW than before, I might consider sharing the picture with you. Yer lah, you have to forgive me, I wasn’t born a ‘fashionista’ (ohok ohok) unlike some people. I am not the 'self-proclaiming' type too. :) The combination of the two would make me a very interesting person indeed. But too bad I’m not interesting. *yawn*

You're still here? Oh okay let’s continue typing since you want to continue reading. Where was I? Oh yes, the fact that we are four. How did I manage to deviate from the topic? Anywayyyy, we are four. How many times have I said that? We are four. Fab four years together, ups and downs, downs and ups and all the way around. This is the longest relationship I’ve ever had! It feels real and surreal at the same time. I’m glad we’ve made it this far. Perhaps the age factor is a huge help as we’re obviously wiser now. Decisions are sensibly made. Arguments are rationally argued. (But unnecessary arguments will sometimes make its special appearance in the relationship, so maybe I should take back the term ‘wiser’) Haha.

I’m a bit sad that he isn’t around on this special day. But of course it’s not a big issue. Because surprisingly, I’m pretty happy just relishing this day alone. Instead of bringing me down, the distance has made me more confident of what we have. I have him constantly in my thoughts and that’s enough to keep me going (for now). He’ll be back real soon and then we’ll celebrate ‘us’, in our own ‘us’ way. No worries. :)

I have a little treat for you guys. Enjoy! :) (see, Farel is already a metrosexual, he wears pink with confidence!)
