In the Name of LOVE

as mature as he projects himself to be... there are times when he gets so excited, he is almost child-like... these are the times when i'll just sit back and smile to myself, observing and cherishing his few moments of being adorable... it is also times like these that one will see him happily enjoying being insomniac... the closer the date of his excitement, the more insomniac he will be... and surprisingly, and rarely i must say, his mood will turn for the better although he is being deprived of sleep...

the past 2 weeks, minus the fact that he's grumpy for waking up in the mornings for his early shift, he hadnt been able to sit still and keep his excitement intact... my observation, he is definitely more excited than i am for my birthday tomorrow... well, no one can blame him for that... according to him, he has been planning his triple redundancy birthday surprise, for me, for almost a month and a half... i would be too... though, *looking innocently* very unfortunate for him... he had to utilize all his triple redundancies... i've managed to second guess almost all his moves and surprises before it is time for me to... and i can bet i've been driving him crazy and giving him a run for his money to come up with a better surprise plan every time i caught up with him...

unfolding his first plan... i got the first phase of my birthday present about two weeks ago... a v-moda, extremely great bass earphones specially flown in from los angeles... more like from holywood to penang, penang to kl, kl to dengkil, dengkil to lost, lost to found, found to picked up by him from dengkil, from dengkil to ampang, from ampang to times square, from times square to ampang from ampang to my hands... the trouble he had to go through to get it for me, it almost moved me to tears... and that is not the end of the surprises... i know he has lined up a few more for me... he had better prepare tissues to wipe my tears tomorrow...

really, he doesnt even have to leap that far to melt my heart... his simplest gestures touched me...his one hug warmed me... he puts so much effort into thinking for my gifts... one year and a half of being together, and all the presents have his special touch in my heart... take a look at my last year's birthday present... a simple, yet memorable compilation of songs... and a very special song dedication that he sang... the minute i turned it on, my tears spilled aching for him...

and knowing i was eyeing for a watch for some time... he paired up with his cousin to sneak around and buy me one in celebration of valentine's day and the mark of our one year anniversary celebration... not that i didnt know he was planning to do that, i couldnt help but admire him for all his efforts... one of the most expensive gift he had ever given me, aside from the wedding band he bought to ask for my hand in marriage... oh gosh... who wouldnt fall head over heels for such a guy...

i remembered i told him previously, things that he conjured with his bare hands will be the things i will cherish the most... *smiling sheepishly* although that were true, i just didnt want him to spend so much on me... at the time when i told him that, he was still bogged down with debts and struggling to straighten his way of life... the moment i said that, he came up with a stick on photos in a frame for me... for someone who barely do any art and craft, he presented a pretty good results of craft... it still lights up my day when i look at it...

going back in time further to christmas last year... he gave me another handmade craft... it became one of my most cherished gift ever... hand made from a plain wood, his sweat and pain is still and will always be on display in our home...

 with that vile, there was a message and meaning to every item that was placed in it

when a relationship happens, it is a very carefully thought out plan that requires a lot of items
a relationship is a joint of two separate lives into one

it requires a bond between the two lives,
a beginning of a new story,
some luck and LOTS of love.

the vile presented to you today is a symbol of our relationship
the vessel that carries it is a symbol of my commitment to you

string- bond
seeds - a new beginning
stars - some luck
hearts - lots of love

and my only reply, he has stolen my heart and made me fall head over heels repeatedly...
