5 things to do with your girlfriend.

Valentine's day is coming so I though I'll just do a post about my girlfriend. My girlfriend, Petrine is the most important person to me. I spend most of my time with her than anyone else. Many people often ask me, how is it that you two are always spending time with each other and not get bored? So here are 5 things that I do with Petrine.

1) Take a walk along Singapore Flyer

I bet many of you haven't been to this little stretch of paradise. It's just right under Singapore Flyer and it's really nice when you go there at night just to enjoy the sea breeze. Besides, there are lots of food there and if you like hawker food like me, there's a food trail there just to reminisce the good old local hawker fare.

2) Buffets

Eating buffets can be an awesome date. We used to eat at least one buffet every week. Afterall, love is getting fat together. Our favorite buffet is definitely KISEKI and that's totally what we are going to eat on Valentine's day. 

3) Play games 

I don't mean asking your girlfriend to play dota with you, but of course if she does that then good for you. Both of us are avid iPhone users so most of the time we play iPhone games. The bad news is, I've never won her in any games so she has all the bragging rights. There are so many iPhone games, and we can just spend an entire day trying to beat each other's highscores. 

4) Planning overseas trips

2012 was an awesome year to go overseas for us cause we both had practically nothing to do. I was waiting for NS, she was waiting for uni. We just planned trip after trip and I would say we were pretty addicted to travelling. But of course, all the places we traveled to were just in the region. So for 2013, we're just looking forward to the end of NS before we can head out to our backpacking trip in China that we've planned for so long. 

5) Clubbing


 Many people would be so taken aback that I club with my girlfriend, alone. So it goes like this, we would pretend to be strangers at the start and then after that get to know each other. It's fun in a way you'll never expect. I mean afterall, even if you go with your friends and your girlfriend, chances are you'll be dancing with your girlfriend so it makes no difference if you just go with her alone. I don't really like the idea of going to a club without my girlfriend so most of the time I just bring her along or just go with her alone. One of the most interesting things to do with your girlfriend. (Y)

Actually I was about to do a "10 things to do with your girlfriend" but I'm too lazy to continue. There are actually a lot more things you can do with your girlfriend, take exercising for example. Thus, it's never too boring to spend everyday with your girlfriend. After all, you do want to invest your time in someone who matters and will be there your entire life. Happy early Valentine's Day everyone.

Marriage


This post came pretty late, but I'll like to congratulate my brother who got married like half a month ago. I was pretty sick on that day despite getting that special chance to book out from camp and attend his wedding dinner. The sad sad thing was, I got to the hotel and had a really high fever of 39 degrees and I knew I had to go to the hospital cause I definitely couldn't maintain throughout the entire wedding dinner.

Nonetheless, I'm pretty awed that my brother is married now. It suddenly dawned on me that I'm pretty grown up too and I should start looking into marriage. My brother and I have a age gap of 7 years and I really want to get married at his current age or even earlier. That all boils down to financial situation I guess. I'm 100% sure of my stable relationship and what's holding me back now is the money.

Although I've made up my mind not to hold a wedding dinner in the future, I'm still not sure if I'll change my mind at the last hour. Wedding dinners are such a waste of money, of course there are cases where by you actually earn from the red packets people give, but that's only if you're really lucky. So I've made up my mind cause my wedding is to be about me and my wife.

So we'll probably going travelling around the world for a month or two. Imagine all the money saved up from the wedding dinner being channeled into travelling expenses. That's the dream wedding for me, to be able to be in so many countries with the love of my life and I shall work to achieve that.
