just wanna break the rules

sometimes, i just wanna break the rules.
i've never been a make-up person,
i've always emphasized the importance of brain material
over vanity.
but i'm a girl.
i cant help but be a little vain at time.

the fact that Russia,
is like a live fashion parade everyday,
and having followed this blog recently,
i cannot help it but get tempted.
so i am trying out something, new things to me.
for instance;
painting my nails in a chic way (at least i feel so)
buying clothes and playing matching game with them,
and doing something...
but sorry, i cant tell what it is,
because i want to give him some surprise come this friday!

but i must admit,
being vain, once in a blue moon,
it can be quite fun,
but
tiring.

he says,
a little, its ok
too much, its scary, no thanks,
and i dont want you to change
for the worse,
with a more appealing appearance.

i listen to him of course!

prayers

i am dedicating this post to you,
because i know it means a lot to you that you finally made it though.

today my baby received his grades for this last semester of exams,
and this marks the end of his university life, his education.

i am feeling and sharing his joy of having completed university,
because i know how much he has been pushing himself to continue,
and it pains me deeply to see him try to hard,
studying something that he does not have interest in,
and trying to excel in it despite the lack of passion.
he passed, and he will move on to the next phase of life,
and i am more than happy to be here,
to share this joyous moment with him.

i missed many many such stages of his life.
how i wished over all these time since we got together
that we meet earlier and be a couple earlier.
but well, its still not too late,
nevermind the missing of secondary school prom, jc prom
ns bmt pop, ord, freshmen welcome tea session, and others.
there are many many others to look forward to!
like his convocation in july, his first day at work, etc...

just want to tell you,
nevermind what is done, what is on the transcript,
keep those in your memory box and
look forward to what that a holds for you ahead!

there is something that keep running through my mind,
and i need to pen it down to encourage him and myself.
'actually, honestly speaking, He has the best plan for you,
there is seriously no need to worry,
just trust in Him, everything will turn out fine, really.'
