When he does the little things

Ber says I Love Youa

Ber says I Love Youa

Today is the last day of the year. Boy – does time go by if you’re keeping busy. I sure didn’t notice that one year has gone by. Remember back to the times of college when you’d wait for the semester to be over and how it dragged on and on and finals never came? Yeah, think back to those days of vacation in grade school that never ended and how you thought you were so cool when you got to stay up late then when it did end you wished you had more time.. now, time isn’t kept on a vacation/finals scale anymore. You wake up, go to work, and every single day for, lets hope not, the rest of your life; you’ll do that. [deep sigh] And you do plan vacas and you do plan things to change up your lives a little but you return to your daily lives.

I was just talking to my sister about this the other night and about how I’m sometimes “sad” (the words of a woman) because I wished he were a little more romantic or would surprise me or do something special and my sister says “He does a lot, but you can’t see it. Remember, it’s the little things that matter,” and we sat there as she try to make me realize by counting all the small things. lol. And now that I look back, I do see that the little things are what make things last and what I get excited for. Sides, if he spoiled me all the time, I wouldn’t have time to do the other things in my life so I’m grateful for how we give each other our independence.

One of the “little things” that was just recently expressed was an “I <3 Youa” written on the sidewalk. lol. I was busy doing some client work yesterday and didn’t get a chance to see what he and dj had been doing outside and then this afternoon as I came home to pick up dj so that we can go on our little outting for firstnight later, I noticed it on the sidewalk outside. I can’t even tell you how I felt the moment I saw it… [deep sigh] I heart him so much too.

I wanted to write down some New Year’s resolutions but I haven’t had time to think about them so perhaps I’ll post over the weekend if I get a chance to get to them but if I don’t then know that I will get to them and that I kinda have an idea about some things I want to change for myself this year. 2009 was a great year, but I think 2010 will be an even better year. I see that I’m loving becoming older each year more and more. I know we all wish we were the child we once were but I think that I love knowing what I know now more than ever, we were so clumsy when we were children. Ok – will recap later!

He’s just not that into you – movie

untitled-1ahhh. loved it – will buy it on dvd. a must see!
maybe the only thing that i can honestly say that I didn’t like that there was a happy ending because it took away from the reality potrayed in the movie but yes.. its realness was great overall and the movie and concept – everything was great overall.

Teheh- There were several characters that I could relate to at different points in my life until I became the exception (you’ll get what I mean in a sec if you haven’t seen the movie)… I remeber when I was still dating and telling stories or was told the stories about a friend of a friend who went through the same thing and got the happy ending. That was so common but it never happened to me or the person I was telling it to. hehe. I still tell the stories today to…  maybe it is better to tell the harsh truth right in that person’s face like what the Justin Long character was doing… but then it’s situations like that where you can only freely open your mouth because you’re not really “interested”

I can recall several occasions with my sister where she has said that she is more comfortable with truthing out and being blunt with people she doesn’t care about but when it comes to the one that you do like – speechless.

I liked the concept of the rule and exception in the movie and how it was explained. But really – I think the meaning of that rule and exception is that – everyone is an exception in someone’s book but you won’t see it until you are because you are the rule until then…

fun love stories about singleness and dating always makes me miss and wonder how it would still be but like the jen and ben characters portray, i’m satisfied with just him because he knows me and cares about me and when it comes to what matters most – he’s there… (most of the time..) umm.. i cried when ben showed up to her parent’s house after her sister’s wedding. hehe – i went with kim and her roomate, and didn’t want to look like a sappy chickflick crying girl.. hehehe, ok – i am though. eheh.

ok. going to get back to work!

My life would suck without you.

So yesterday I was looking for a good quality version of the Kelly Clarkson video for her new song on youtube and of course couldn’t find it (found it today, kindda cute and very subtle – love kelly of course) but what I did find was this cool version by David Choi… and ahhh… why didn’t I wait for him. hehehe – he’s my other half! hehehe, just kidding, but he’s really quite amazing and all over the place. Just look for yourself.

Then of course I went to his website http://www.davidchoimusic.com/ and downloaded his version and listened to more. Guy is great – should get somewhere in mainstream. I’m a sucka for Chris Brown (his song Run It was playing at the club that one night… ahaha, and since then I have melted away with With You and Forever)… and on that note – there’s a ballad version (sorta) of Forever on David’s page with a collaboration with Jasmin and some other talented Asian Music Artists.

Kollaboration - the movement that put it together is awesome too. I’m just kindda sad that Missoula isn’t a big town and we can’t host any kind of event like that here or it would be totally out of the way for them to come but one of these day I’d like to see one of those shows some day, maybe I’ll plan to go out of my way to get to one.

I haven’t been very inspired lately because I’ve been trying to get all the logistics behind nn-dp figured out and so once all that is done – I hope to do more!! Nighty night.

My lovely Kim Sam Soon

 kss photo

I just finished the Kim Sam Soon series this weekend after two or almost three years of being interested in it. I first saw the series one night at my girlfriend Nhien’s house as we were still in college and in love with love. Right away – I wanted to see more and more and more of it, since I felt in a way that I could relate to the ‘bigger’ girl in society. Of course we all know that one of these drama series fall onto an 8-10 DVD set with about 8-10 episodes in one so it takes quite some time to finish. I couldn’t believe that I finished it, I didn’t have to – and there were points in the series where I could’ve just ended it but I wanted to know… I wanted to know.

Or maybe I just kept thinking that Hyun Bin would come out of the TV screen and become mine. hehehe. For those who don’t know – this is a story about a 30 years old chubby girl, played by Kim Sun Ah who probably gained some lbs for this part, who is on a quest to find true love and get married as in society – at that point the young ladies are “old”. Having only a degree from Le CordonBleu in France in baking goods and patisserie, she found a job in a restaurant as a cake baker where the owner of the restaurant happens to be a cute stud played by Hyun Bin. (sigh – can’t take my eyes off of him).

Then she gets trapped in this contract with him playing his “lover” because he doesn’t want to be introduced to anymore women by his mom who wants him to get married so that he can take over her hotel business when he gets older and have someone by his side. They fall in love in the course of getting to know each other and pretending to be “lovers” but his blast from the past comes back. Gorgeous young lady,  Jeong Ryeo-won probabaly lost some weight for this movie to play the anorexic girl. She comes back and because of a sickness of hers, the Hyun Bin character goes to her aid and forgets Sam Soon. Then back and forth, he can’t get her out of his mind, he finally realizes that he is in love with Sam Soon. And after some eating, some travel, more eating, and drinking… (korean dramas, lots of eating and drinking)… he decides to be with Sam Soon.

I especially love the time when they are a finally a couple, it was so happily protrayed. And Hyun Bin is just so cute, I could eat him up. If god made a perfect man, it would be him. ahaha… ok and my husband the second runner up. Brad Pitt definitely gets first runner up in my book. ahaha.

I can say that I haven’t gone out and done any photography shoots this weekend because I was kept up trying to finish the series. I’m in love with love again – and my heart is floating away.. hehehe, not sure if that’s a good thing or bad thing.

On that note – d’you know that Ber said that “IF” he won the lottery – he’d give me half and then take half and we’d go our separate ways. Why? He says - that way we’d get to do the things we love and had always wanted to do but didn’t get to do and then if fate would have it – we can find each other some day but if not then we’d be doing what we loved before we fell in love. I’ve been questioning the notion for a while now and I wonder what is on his mind to think of such a gesture. Does he really want to be with me?

We’ve been living together for two, almost three years now (in July) and I finally added him onto my health policy because he didn’t have one. Of course as my “spouse” and they finally asked me the other day for a official marriage license. We don’t have one because we just kindda thought, well – we’re in love, we live together, what more do we need? So in a few days – we might go and get a license right – but now I question whether or not he really wants one to bring up such a silly idea.

Maybe he just wants me to be free like he said since at times of disagreement – I say “I don’t know why we got together in the first place” but I really care about him… And I do know why. Maybe I’m just overthinking it again. My heart is all over the place with Kim Sam Soon on my mind. hehehe… eh – he won’t win the lottery anytime soon.

About a marriage certificate. I have to think about a good day to get one. I was thinking Valentines Day so that we’d have that to celebrate every now and then since we never really had a special day, but that is kindda cliche… Papers must be sent in before March 1, so I can’t wait til our day of meeting, March 31, nor can I wait til July 22, our hmong tshoob…
