Happy 1 year Anniversary to us :)

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

A year has passed just like that. It’s really fast.

It’s been a year that hub and I got married. Few weeks ago I gasped and told hub “wow….soon it’ll be 1 year. do you realized that?”

It never occurred to me that we’ve been married a year already. I know..for many people 1 year is nothing. It’s brand new, cant beats those that’ve been married for like 10yrs or so.

But for me….it’s an achievement. It’s something for us, no matter how young our marriage life is.

I met hubby in Dec 2007. We decided to get married in a month. We finally had the proposal in Apr 2008, ROM in May 2008 and Wedding ceremony in Dec 2008.

When we got married, I told hub “Do you realized we’ve just met about 1 year ago and now we’re married?”

And now…I told hubby “gosh…we’ve been married for 1 year already and I only know you for 2 years”..hehehe….time flies. really flies.

I’ve been enjoying every moments of being married with hub. He’s a blessing for me. He’s the best husband I could ever ask for. He’s jst the best of the best.

Of coz he has some flaws here and there, but it’s nothing compared to the bliss and happiness he is giving me.

We do have our ups and downs, but mostly ups. We do have some little arguments/disagreements here and there, but never too big and never long.

I guess we just can’t stay mad at each other.

I still remember when people gasped and said “how can you be so sure that he’s the one when you just met him 1 month?”

I can’t really explained how…but I know in my heart and I listened to my intuition that “ya..he is the one. everything fits. my heart, body and mind feel calm, happy and relax when i’m with him. I can be who I really am when i’m with him. I dont have to pretend to be someone else. He really treats and care for me really well. and most importantly, i can feel his love”

So what do I love about hub? Many…

- I love the fact that he loves me, no matter what.
- I love the fact that we have the same religion and view in live.
- I love the fact that he loves his family so much, just like me with my family.
- I love how he smiles and laugh
- I love his small eyes…sometimes too small until I thought he’s sleeping.
- I love how he’s so determined, hard working and never give up to achieve something. And not shy about it.
- I love that he’s a giver, and don’t mind to do something for someone else even if it trouble him. Coz me too sometimes are like that

- I love that his family (esp me) is his priority above his friends and work. He would rather stay home spend his long weekend with me than go out meeting friends.
- I love that try to show some interest in my hobby. I like crafts (knitting, etc) and he’d try to ask me what am I making, how to do it. He doesn’t mind if I ask to buy some wools and needles to knit.

- He would listen to me rattling about knitting/crafting when he has absolute no idea about it. He would give his opinion what pattern is nice when I cant decide which one to go. He would horray with me when I’m done with my knitting project.

- He always said I’m so beautiful no matter what. He always give me little praise here and there, unexpectedly.

- He like to tease me, when I’m stress, busy or doing nothing.

- We always said “I love you” to each other as much as possible.

- We have a routine. In morning when we wake up, when we both woken up, we would give each other a big warm hug for few seconds/minutes, give a quick kiss and said “good morning” with biggg smile.

- If he woke up first and left for work while I’m still sleeping, he’d kiss me first to say he’s living and I’d pat his face to ask him be careful.

- Before sleep, we would definitely kiss each other good night and hold hand. But of coz, few minutes after that we’ll be in our own weird position.

- Before having any meals, we would kiss each other first then start eating.

- I love the fact he doesn’t mind do house work to help me. He won’t mind cooking for me. Cutting fruits for me even when I never ask him to do any of those.

- Sometimes he’d complaint why I dont let him help me do laundry when I dont even need. I love it…it shows he truly love and care for me.

There are so many to write….but most importantly…I love him for who he is. That’s all.

Although sometimes he annoys me, but it’s nothing..really nothing. I’m just truly happy and blessed to have married him.

Hub, thank you for being my husband. Thank you to marry me. And thank you to love me and always be your true self.

Love you always and may we have many more years to come to celebrate (especially with our future children).

May the Tri-Ratna always protect and bless us in our every journey together, forever.

1 more day to ThanksGiving

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

This is my 1st time celebrating ThanksGiving. I wonder what is it for.

I’ve asked 1 person, he claimed it’s originated from the Civil War (not sure abt this) era when the Westerner came to USA and almost can’t survive the cold winter in the East Coast. They were helped by the Indian, the Indian gave them foods, etc.

So to thank the kindness of the Indian after they all survived the cold winter, they arranged a big festive for the Indian and thank them. Hence, Thanks Giving.

Oh well…I think I may do some googlin g for it. Curious myself.

So how are you celebrating your Thanks Giving this year?

On another note, I’ve finally bought my very 1st Double Pointed Needles (DPN). I couldn’t find 5 DPNs thou, that Walmart only had 4 DPNs.

I’ve always put the thought of getting DPN for so long, but after knitted and crocheted way too many scarves and shawl, I finally ready to start knit either socks, hat or gloves.

I did lots of googling on how to use DPN. Finally, after weeks of research, I started mine. I’m knitting a hat first. I think my knit won’t be that good coz I can see there’s some loose joins in between DPNs. Oh well..my 1st time. Hope I can finish it soon.

1st time knit hat using DPNs

You can see from my picture that I’ve just started making the ribbing. Cross my finger real tight that it will works fine.

I got the pattern from Liob Brand website, the product ID is 90303AD.

Happy knitting people…
