Friday~~

Like any other WW Friday is the day I Lurrrrvvvveeee the most [with a capital L] =P

Like WW said LDM has two sides..and because its Friday, I want to share my point of view of the plus side of LDM. save the tears for another day..

I was quite young when I got married. 24years old. For me, it is still young. I have so much to do and want to achieve. I wanted to further study and build life of my own. Girl Power sorts of style hehe. Not to mention enjoying my pay cheque[owh that gorgeous shoes n bags]. But since -back then- boyfriend wants to get married and I am desperate to get out of the 'jungle', I agree to marriage.

Now, I am married.. on the weekends and school holidays mostly. So I get to be the person I always wanted to be. I get to enjoy myself without having to worry of striking a balance. I can do my school work without having to think what to cook for dinner [except on Fridays..=P] I can go out after school to go shopping, spa, facial, gym etc etc... I can volunteer to teach evening n night classes at school and even cover for anyone. I get to skip wifey-task 4 days a week and I suck at multitasking. So this is a blessing in that sense. I get to learn to be a wife slowly. 3 days a week.

It is the same case for my hubby, because I am not waiting at home with cooked dinner, he can stay longer till late nite at the office to settle his huge pile of work. He does not have to worry of leaving me alone on weekdays to go out stations which he does alot! He plan his visits on weekdays and come back to me on weekends. He gets to build his career this few years.

Plus both of us -me n hubby- are now living with our own parents. After being away for studies for soooo long, we get to actually take care of our own parents for the time being. He helps pay the house bills, and I was given a much bigger task to take care of my mum after she was diagnose with breast cancer last year. I was badly needed at home especially last year lil sis was in form 5 sitting for her SPM.  Imagine if I was in KL with my hubby. My dad couldnt possibly handle it on his own. So at least both of us get a chance to 'balas budi and berbakti' to our parents more than just visiting them once in awhile.

This LDM thing although it is sickly sad most of the time.. it gives me time to grow as a person and be a better wife bit by bit, one at a time. We get to plan our life slowly, like buying a car in 2008, then buy a house in 2009, then plan for baby in 2010??? not yet kottt... save more money to renovate the house. baby can wait..hehe need to honeymoon alot more..need to travel back to our kampung in UK..

I admit that I cry every Sunday before hubby drives back to KL, but I know this is for my own good, for my hubby, our marriage and our life.

God won't throw anything at you if you could not handle it. I wasn't ready to be a full time 24/7 wife, so He let me be the weekend wife first...

It is a blessing to me. a sad one tho.

  1. I love your entry. Yup, everything that happens to us is a blessing in disguise. I'm gonna be married soon and my future hubby will travel a lot. He'll be away for a month or 2 months, thats normal. Then we get to spend some time together but he'll always be on call.....maybe a break for a week then off traveling again but secretly (now), i don't mind that much cos i get to spend time with my family and friends, doing the things that i like and being independent. Still, it must be different being a wife and u're husband is not around. I'd like to think that it keeps the spark alive between us dat way... :p
