Fancy a Gerald Genta Watch?

November 14, 2008 Leave a Comment

thewatchery.jpgMy husband likes to call me a bag-and-shoes lady and I call him the-watch guy because he is really crazy about watches. He has this fancy box where he displays all his watch collection. Also, every time we pass by a watch store, he simply can’t help to check it out. He also has a collection of watch catalogues pilling up in our living room. That’s how crazy he is with watches. When I was thinking of a gift for him for our first year anniversary, I immediately decided to buy him a genuine titanium Skyhawk A-T Citizen watch. With watches, I can never go wrong. I just have to be careful that what I am giving him is not yet in his collection.

Anyway, if you are thinking of buying a watch for yourself or for somebody, check out TheWatchery.com because they are having a super sale now. Sale discounts are up to 70% off the retail price of some of their items. A Gerald Genta watch for example, can be bought for a price which is 5000$+ off the retail price. Too good to be true? Visit them now and see for yourself. I don’t know if you have a particular liking of Gerald Genta but if not then it is okay because they have other brands too. Hurry now because while they are still on sale!

A Present for Me

November 11, 2008 3 Comments

I got my birthday gift a month earlier! We went out last Sunday to shop for my gift. My husband bought me an iPhone for my birthday and since my birthday is still a month from now, he told me that I am not to use my iPhone yet until that day but I am glad that he doesn’t have the heart to refuse my request. He gave in right after I said “puuuuuuuhhhhhlllllleeeeaaasssssse!”

This iPhone will be Marcus’ birthday gift and Christmas gift for me. It’s really too bad that both occasions are in the same month. I say that not because I only get one gift for both occasion but because Marcus only go through the difficulty of deciding what to give me once a year!

Having a Baby

September 19, 2008 Leave a Comment

baby.JPGI don’t know if you’ve heard the news about hundreds of babies in China dying because of consuming a certain milk formula. This news really shook me and made me think again about having a baby while we are here. Initially, we agreed to wait two years after our wedding for a baby and that was a year ago. It means, we only have another year to wait but the problem is… Marcus signed a two-year contract to work here in Shanghai. Technically, we can have a baby here. It will still go with our plan but hearing such news scares the hell out of me….maybe it is wiser to wait a little bit longer until we’re finally settled in Europe.

Weird Thing

September 7, 2008 2 Comments

I don’t know if anybody will consider this weird but my husband thinks it a little bit “special”. He normally used the word “special” to be polite. A regular person would say, “That man is ugly” but my husband would say “He looks special”. :) So I am not exactly sure how my husband sees it but when I told a friend of mind about it, she said “Iw! That is so gross!”

“It” is something I do whenever he’s not with me.

You see, I am so used to having husband around. I sleep better when I can feel him beside me, hear him breathe, and smell him. Right now he is on a business trip so I am really having difficulties getting a good night sleep. So to give myself a little something… something to sense that he is somehow beside me…, I dressed his pillow with his unwashed shirt so I can still smell him.

I think every person has his/her own weirdness and this is probably mine but I don’t see it as “extremely weird”. It’s just a shirt not underwear! So please…

1st Wedding Anniversary Gift

August 21, 2008 1 Comment

Ten months ago, we got married so that means in two months, we’ll have our first year anniversary and being the nice wife that I am (haha), I am already thinking of what I could give Marcus on our first wedding anniversary.

red-shoe.jpgI am not the kind to give expensive gifts. For Marcus, I think the most expensive gift I ever gave to him is the Nikon camera flash. Normally, I give something that is intimate and personal. I won’t go into details now but just to give you an idea… ummm…in one occasion, I gave him a pair of red 6 inch high heeled shoes—the strappy kind. It wasn’t for him to wear, It was for me (*wink).

For our first year wedding anniversary, I am thinking of giving him a lap dance. How’s that? Haha. I wish I can make a lap dance but maybe not this time because I am not so comfortable with my body right now. I was 7 kilos overweight two months ago and I don’t think I can shed the extra 5 kilos before October plus he must be EXTRA nice to get a lap dance (haha) so I have to think of something else.

Suggestions, anyone?

Got a Patient

August 10, 2008 Leave a Comment

We thought it was just the alcohol but it looks like Marcus might have caught something because he is still not feeling well until now.

Last Friday, we went out with some friends and watched the Olympics’ opening ceremonies in a bar. After watching, we decided to sit out and finish our drinks there to avoid the loud crowd inside. I remember it rained and although there were sunshades…err… big umbrellas… (don’t know exactly how it’s called) outside, we (specially Marcus) still got wet so maybe this and lack of sleep are the reasons and why he’s got a fever.

Yesterday morning he refused to eat anything because he’s so sure he’s going vomit whatever he eats. I didn’t force him and I just let him stay in bed the whole day but at finally at 5:00 in the afternoon, I got worried so I decided to take his temperature and it read that he’s got a fever.

It was difficult but in the end I got him to eat something and I gave him medicine after that. At 10 pm I gave him the second tablet and few hours later, he’s temperature started going back to normal.

He’s better now. Not fully okay and his temperature is still a little bit above normal but I think he’s gonna be fine. The medicine I am giving him is working fine and he started eating again without me forcing him.

Married Guys Have Lower Alcohol Tolerance

August 9, 2008 2 Comments

Marcus got drunk last night and that’s the very reason why I can blog today—a Saturday. A day we dedicated for us. A day supposedly spent with just the two of us. No works, no friends, no family calls. It’s OUR day of the week. Normally, I would feel incredibly guilty if I sit in front of my computer on a Saturday…but not today.

Marcus is there lying on the bed incredibly afraid to move because a slight movement makes him feel that he’s going to throw up. It’s almost 3:00 in the afternoon and he hasn’t eaten yet. He said it’s no use because he can’t contain the food that long anyhow. So yeah ok, being the good wife that I am, I am leaving him in peace. Haha.

I am very sure, he got 3 beers and 1 shot of Ouzo (I didn’t drink alcocholic drinks last night so I was not “too drunk” to know how many he had) but he looks and acts like he drank a whole bottle of vodka. This is amusing me so much. My husband is a changed man. He’s not used to alcoholic drinks anymore. Haha. That is what happens when guys get married.

To Shanghai Please

April 15, 2008 4 Comments

Like I tweeted last Saturday, my husband and I went out. We intended to buy some house stuff. Things that we can bring to Europe because if we are moving to Austria, there are a number of things we’ll surely need and because of the extreme prices in Europe, we thought we might be able to spend less if we buy these things here in China then ship them later to Austria.

So we went to one of those big House and Home stores and we saw some really nice things like jars, plates, kitchen wares, beddings, etc. I wanted to buy a lot but we realized that we are not sure where to go yet. I mean, there is a possibility that we are going to live in Shanghai for another two years after Marcus’ contract here in Changchun and if that happens, we will not need anything more than what we already have. After two hours of roaming around the store, we decided to wait another week for any news about his application to work in Shanghai. I really do hope that it would be Shanghai for the mean time and not Wien.

We still did some shopping though, I bought a nice bag (*wink). Then we spend the evening in a nice Japanese restaurant having dinner and getting drunk.
