quick update

Post-exam period this time around is slightly different; have deviated from the usual norm of looking for a temp job in order to enjoy, possibly my last, precious holiday time. Must say I am enjoying the days of slacking, meeting up with friends and simply doing whatever strikes my fancy. I am taking driving lessons - something I've been wanting to do for so long and am finally getting down to it! (:

On a more serious note, the Boyfriend and I have discussed amicably [well, as amicable as such discussions can get] and have reached the decision that we need to give each other more space in our relationship. Not anything serious, just that a series of small conflicts have led to this, and if it is not brought up in the open now, it will only be worse in time to come. The Boyfriend says tt he feels very much pressurized by me with respect to most aspects of my actions/speech - which makes me feel sad, because I never wanted such a thing to happen. So I've told him that I wld interfere less in his life, give him more space, and vice versa; and that perhaps some of our expectations towards this relationship need to be re-adjusted.

I do not really see it as a negative thing to have happened, and perhaps this period will work out to be a sort of re-evaluation towards our relationship; and to see if things will work out for the better, or not. I wld have thought tt I wld be sad and depressed over such an incident, but surprisingly, I have good control over my emotions. Of course there was a tinge of sadness and regret tt things have come to such a point; but now I see it with greater clarity - this is smthg we need to do. Not tt we are taking a break from each other, but more like taking a break from only being with each other.

*hmm* I need plans for new year's eve! Am thinking of mahjong. Hee.

note: little tort did not make it despite the visit to the vet, but I take comfort in the fact tt at least she's happier now, no longer suffering and knows tt she was much loved. She will be greatly missed.
