Happy Date!
It's been a long time since boyfriend and I had time for a day-long date. The last time was... I don't even remember!
Ever since I stepped out of university and into the work life, it was goodbye to the precious fun-from-breakfast-to-dinner dates and hello to just-dinner dates. Now that he is out of university and into the noble (but undeniably sad) life of a teacher (who has to climb out of bed at 5:30am from Mondays to Fridays), it is "noooooooooo it can't be!" to dinner-while-trying-to-stay-awake dates.
Yay for work life.
But seriously, besides this little shortcoming of a full-time career, I am enjoying work much, much more than schooling. I'd gladly write a report than study 24/7 for an exam any day. (All those who scared me with the horror stories of employment while I was approaching graduation, thank you very much for the unnecessary nightmares.)
Anyways, back to our happy date! :) I took a day of leave on this precious day that he doesn't have to work.
He smiled through the hot, hot day. He smiled even when our breakfast became lunch. (Yes I overslept sobs.) He kept smiling even while I shopped all around the mall. (He takes an average of 2 minutes to buy whatever he needs at any store.) He offered his opinion on the dress that I liked. (Never happened before, first time ever!) And he waited patiently at Starbucks with all our stuff while I had to run some last-minute errands.
Besides all the smiling, I recall lots of laughs too. :)
I prayed and prayed for a happy date to remember. Thank God and thank you boyfriend! :)

You know, at the same time, I think this work life makes us appreciate our play time more and maybe even plan it better... Also, I like the fact that I can actually spend money on my free time as versus to askign mom for cash when I was pre-work age lol
