Yesterday was our 2nd anniversary, I admittedly never gave much thought when we started out as to whether we'd last this long, but we did and I hope we will for a long time to come.
Despite commemorating the occasion in a rather ordinary fashion sans over the top expressions of joy, love etc etc, it was a good day, one that was sweet in its own ordinary manner that may reek of normality to others, but it was special nonetheless.
The most "un-normal" part of the day lasted 2h30mins and the other 11h30mins where we were in each other's company was, like I mentioned, quintessentially normal. Fantastic (I'm not being sarcastic here).
We started the day in a smelly fashion, no, we were not the smelly ones, but we went to Pasir Ris Park for a nice home-made breakfast by the beach (only we were not so close to the beach because I didn't want to trod on the grass to get to the beach lol). Of course, Pasir Ris Park has a stable where for a fee, visitors can ride on a horse or pony (as long as you don't crush the poor thing). And let me say that horses and ponies aren't the most pleasant smelling of creatures out there. At least their dung aren't very....appetising odours to smell, especially when you're walking past them with the intention to have a nice meal by the beach.
We had to rush back to the car as rain clouds quickly gathered and made it back in the nick of time just as the sky let loose. Dropped by our respective places to clean up and then we went for the "not so normal" part of our day; catching the local play The Campaign to Confer the Public Star Award on JBJ. Now we don't watch artsy stuff very often, the last time we did wasn't even for an artsy event (Chestnuts).
Went down to the Drama Centre, collected our tickets and then zipped off to Bugis Junction for a quick bite at Terra. We eventually made it back for the show just in the nick of time.
The show was good, not in the same league as Chestnuts (I wouldn't really put them together 'cause they're just so inherently different" but kudos to the cast and scriptwriter for a good show with all the not-so-subtle references to our nude-posting NCMP, the political dinosaur etc etc.
Post show, we walked around a little, bought some stuff and then came home to change before meeting his friends for dinner. To cut the whole thing short, we went home after dinner.
See? What a normal day. Great to have nonetheless.
Now, I have to get back to studying, cya:S
