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!

“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…

I 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?

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.

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.

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.

There should be more but I can’t remember them. This is all I can say, it wasn’t just me who had a good time in the Philippines. Marcus had some real fun too.

Below pictures are cropped by me. I would have edited them but I am not so good with Photoshop so these pictures are raw, they are just cropped a little bit.

My face… iwww!

The MOST provocative shot of me ever!
