Grrrrace: February 2014

I was upset that I had to sit for my first final paper on Valentine's Day. Upset that I could not really spend the day with Chester. Upset that I was hurting from menstrual cramps but yet I had to take the paper. After my paper, I sensed something fishy from the boyfriend because he told me to take my time to come over. I knew he was up to something but when I got over, I saw nothing. Still feeling suspicious, I went to take a bath. And then after I took my bath....

.... I came out to this sight. A beautiful sight I never would have expected. Because I hate to see my rose withering, I had these. And it was beautiful I couldn't help but to tear, secretly. Also, I received my first blue box. I was over the mooooon.

The evening went pretty normal. We didn't celebrate Valentine's Day but I got my Valentine's Day cum Anniversary gift on the day itself.

Then came my final and last paper (of my university life) on 17th Feb. Which was coincidentally my 2nd anniversary. Which was also my last day of school in polytechnic 2 years ago. I specifically chose to get together on the last day of polytechnic because I couldn't stand tongues wagging in school. I hated it. We went way before but only made it official on 17th Feb 2012.

We celebrated our anniversary the next day, and gave him my handmade gifts. We set a budget for our anniversary gifts this year because we wanted to save money for our big trip. But since he spoilt the market, I did so the very next minute and hence the last present hasn't arrived.

So proud of the scarf that I have knitted. After 1.5 months, 2 balls of yarn, approximately 300 metres worth of wool, 20,000 knits and lots of incessant whining, I finally managed to knit at 1.7 metres scarf. And I hope to knit more in the future.
