I did not switch off my lights at home. We don’t turn on any unnecessary lights on normal days. Already our electricity bill is high, we know better to not waste energy. If you’re wondering why I sound unsupportive, this is because my home houses a hospital room.

When you have sick people at home, do you think you are in the mood to celebrate whatever day that has nothing to do with your home and family? Do you think you can switch off the air-conditioning and make sick people feel better? The answer is no.

Maybe I will be able to celebrate more and do more for myself when I am no longer tied to this home. Meanwhile, I am happy as long as I get to steal some hours to be away from home.

Last Saturday, the bf took me out for dinner after his short assignment at some camera events in town. As usual, he did not make any plan to take me anywhere. We always end up rushing to any tom, dick and harry eateries nearby because he is so hungry and drives like a maniac. I am very unhappy about this. I can only keep my silence and remind him to keep his eyes on the road.

Anyway, we ended up in a Hong Kong style kopitiam in SS2. Initially he suggested the one located in a building but I protested. We have been there before and the food sucks. I told him we will go to this royalty place but he said I told him I don’t want to go there before.

Oh yeah? Since when he can remember what I’ve said before or what he had told me before?

Thank goodness dinner was pallatable. We were there until way past 8.30pm and the place was brightly lit. Gone was my candle lit dinner.

After dinner I suggested we take a drive to around my work place to check if they switched off the lights. We drove a bit in KL city before going home.

These are people who spend a lot of time blogging. They like to camwhore  or will never fail to take pictures anytime, anywhere.

What I read from these blogs are the boyfriends will be so sweet, so nice and they have so much time to spend together, hanging out, cooking for each other, waking up next to each other, have breakfast, shopping, go to bookshop, go holiday and stay in some boutique hotel etc.

What if I tell you I had done maybe 5% of those things with my boyfriend?  I wonder what is wrong? These people are at least 8-10 years younger than me. How come they get all the time in the world? How come they have nothing to do at home? How come I have to work so hard and yet don’t make enough?

Sure I would like to have more pictures too but I find it quite troublesome to bring a camera. I also need more money to get a nice phone with good camera feature. My bf is a professional photographer. Isn’t weird that I do not have any nice pictures to put on my blog? In fact he doesn’t like to take pictures whenever we are together. Why?

Maybe I should stop reading those blogs. They make me very depress.

Saturday evening we had buffet at Cititel Hotel. After dinner, the bf had to use toilet. We bought tickets for a movie at 9pm. In the end, I didn’t even get to walk into the Ladies Department.

Last night I was hoping to do some shopping but the bf wanted to check out some stationery supplies for work. Lets just say that I am a considerate gf. I told him I can do my shopping another day. So we walked around Gardens Mall. Then we stopped by New Balance to look at some shoes. After that he got distracted by the Full HD TV playing King Kong. I had to pull him away in order for us to sit down and have some snack. Sigh…

When will I get a Girlfriend Day? I don’t need a girl friend day really. I just hope the bf will be fair. Sometimes I do what he wants and other times he will do what I want. Better still, we make it a fair date each time where both of us get to do what we want.

I hate shops selling TVs and I hate toilets.

Some of you might say why I want to depend on the bf to take me shopping? The reason is simple. We have only 7 days in a week. On Monday-Friday, I am forced to sit in the office (remember?) even though I do nothing. On weekends, I have to teach during the day. So all that is left for me is just few hours to spend time with the bf.

Sometimes he has a job on weekend as well because people likes to get married and have wedding dinners on weekends.

Now I really think this kind of life is crappy. This is the reason why I am working out a way to get out of this rut.
