I&#8217;ll drive to work, drop u at our new place. Pick you up for lunch. Go to work and pick u up in the evening, have dinner outside then go home!&#8221; keke&#8230; sounds cool!! <\/p>\n<p>2) No need to cook?! That&#8217;s my fave surprise too!! No no&#8230; pls don&#8217;t get me wrong, I love to cook&#8230; BUT excessive cooking mks me v brain-dead, esp. thinking about &#8216;what to cook&#8217; Basically, I still like cooking&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>3) Learning that I can cook! You know&#8230; the most surprising POSITIVE thing i learnt about myself for the past 2 yrs since I&#8217;m here is definitely &#8221; I am quite a good cook! &#8221; Not being thickskin here&#8230; BUT I love reading recipes then trying them out! It&#8217;s v exciting to me! and yes&#8230; Besides the post office, I spend a whole lot of time in the kitchen! Just that I haven&#8217;t been updating my food\/cooking blog \ud83d\ude41 <\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br \/>\nThis is so random..you are reading a very random entry&#8230;.. *stop here if u r bored*<\/p>\n<p>At times, when u r so absorbed and focused on other things, you tend to forget what really matters. Unfortunately, it happens to me all the time.<\/p>\n<p>It was last sunday, BH and I decided to pamper ourselves, so we went out to our fave Japanese resturant &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.manekirestaurant.com\/\">Maneki<\/a> for dinner! I had no idea why we were both craving for sashimi&#8230; actually, the best place for sashimi is nearby Vancouver, but driving 3hrs just for food.. sounds toooo ridiculous! <\/p>\n<p>After a very happy and satisfying dinner, BH and I were on our way home. It felt like a date! I have no idea why! Then again&#8230; everyday with BH is a date! what more can I say! I found another surprise! I am on a date everyday! hahaha&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; when we are at home, BH does his stuff, I do my stuff ( HOUSE DATE)<br \/>\n&#8211; shopping for &#8216;deals&#8217;\/groceries ( SHOPPING DATE.. duh!??! aka<strong> OTOT <\/strong>= <strong>Own Time Own Target<\/strong>.
