Hubby is working today till late (due to N Day rehearsal). As usual, slept till 11plus. Lazed in bed and decided to do housework. Almost 3mths since wedding, I admit that I am better at doing housework nowadays. From Zero to estimating time required. At times, my Sis-IL asked me 'why bother' (Since nobody do it at home and I am not trained in it). Well, I got to learn. Sooner or later, I will have my own house. I am well pampered by mum who is a 100% housewife and NEVER touch even washing machine, dishes etc since young. Now, I am capable to use it etc. In fact, I remembered the first time I ironed Hub's working pants. Instead of a straight line, it became 4-5 lines (*faint*) when he saw it. Today, I am better and faster than him. Ok, I think you must be thinking I am turned into a 'huang-lian-po'! By doing the chores today, we are free to go dating instead of telling people that we are in rush to go home just to iron, wash etc. ;)

Last night, I was out, having drink when my friend who was slightly depressed over relationship, studies, work and finance. That morning, I just had a conversation with BF kaki on studies. He was telling me that I should upgrade my qualication ASAP. I was telling him, look, I have thoughts of taking the course but sometimes, I am very concerned on financial issues like house etc. I was told off by just going ahead (Maybe at his job level, single status, he dont have to be worried) . Sigh, I just dont understand why some think that way. Well, just give me sometime to settle the house. It's never easy to buy a house, settle/overseeing renovation and start buying furniture/electronic stuff, especially for first-time owners. Moreover, we used hard cash on my wedding and besides, you cant drain your savings w/o saving for rainy days. Never did I ask money from his or my family for contribution. I felt upset. I cant just go ahead w/o thinking. :(

Anyway, when I met up my friend, she told what happened. She took up the degree course cause she wants that paper qualification too. Now that she cant cope with her job, she cant leave too. There's financial constrain, no job, no pay leave (What if she is jobless for months) and stuck. Some complication issues with relationship adds on to depression. From her, I learnt that need and want some management of my own.

I will continue with my studies, dont nag, dont add pressure on me. Ok? (I have been thinking it not just recently but for years..) Now, I am settled with wedding stuff, next is the house.

If you think I am pathetic, just pay for my school fees (resolves all).

Sorry if you think I felt hard up. This topic is like forever everytime I meet one or two relatives or some 'inconsiderate' friends who are too self-centered..

Sob Sob Sob..
