I just realised the last 2 posts I had put up, the timing is....
One at 0134AM and last post which I just put up is 0134PM. Freaky! Hiak...
Anyway, on Friday morning I was checking myself out in the reflection at the train station while waiting for train, I realised 8 of the stuff I was carrying with me were all from him. :P
My Iphone 4
My Iphone 4 black cover
My black bag
My black glittery flats.
My ribena water bottle.
My keychain.
My top.
My umbrella.
Yups... He liked buying me stuff. Replacing my stuff with the ones he bought. From clothes, to intimates, shoes, books, the materialistics and also took care of my needs.
I once tweet 25days ago
"Ever since he goes shoes shopping with me & buys me shoes, I realized it's lost the meaning when I go see shoes by myself. Something lacking..
My gf says "Beb, I think you should change your bag." Cos she knows the bag I carry around is from him. I told her "nah, it's okay, I am alright carrying the bag, it does not affect me so much."
But I know soon I will museum this bag to prevent it from further wear and tear.
All the things he bought which I carry with me does not make me cry or whatsoever, but in fact made me feel good to carry around for they were tokens of his dote and love for me.
That love was true, That love was divine.
What I carried was few of the most happiest, beautiful memories of us both.
Jess D did her bracelet retail therapy on Friday and I went along with her. She bought a dainty bracelet from CITIGEMS for daily wear. She liked it cos it resembles another bracelet she used to have.
I know how exactly it's like to want to get something similar to something You like a lot or holds strong sentimental memories to You. If it's not the same, almost the same is as good, although it can never replace that first one You had.
It reminded me of that afternoon so crystal clear when he brought me to CITIGEMS at Bishan on 1st Jan '2010 and bought me my first piece of jewellry from him.
I wore the necklace during his absence and I sub conciously touch the pearl whenever I missed him at work or when I feel down.
On 30th sept (Friday) when I met my girls up for another round of drinks and dinner, Jess exclaimed " why are you still wearing the necklace, huh?" I smiled.
That night after KPO, I took it off when I was home, cleaned it and kept it snugly in my pink jewellery organiser, including the diamond studs he bought.
The necklace holds very important value to me. It was the best gift he bought me during his most down period. With what he had, he gave me the best. It was also something in replacement of him to let me know he is with me when he is away. So important I know I will hate myself if I lose it.
I can be rough and careless with things I bought myself.
But when it comes to gifts from my love ones, I do not bear to use it for fear of losing it or spoiling it.
My girlfriends will always say "You better start using it soon and not keep it." whenever they buy me something. Haha!
On Friday night when I got home, I thought of the dainty bracelet Jess bought and it reminded I had something so dainty too. It is a pearl bracelet Momo bought me 5-6 years ago and I museum it so well I forgotten about it until I saw Jess' bracelet. Shared with Jess I have something this dainty too and went to dig it out. Sent her a pic of the bracelet and Jess suddenly said " I realized you were not wearing the necklace today." and my reason for not wearing is shown as below.
I cherish gifts from my love ones close to my heart, deeply. So much so if I lose it, I come down really hard at myself and gets so upset, no one can imagine. Gifts are not just about the concrete item itself, what brand is that, BUT THE GIVER'S TOKEN OF HEART. It is me as the recepient's responsibility to protect my belongings given to me from my love ones. If I come down hard on myself for losing the things my love ones bought me, just imagine if someone attempts to throw away my stuff, hide it or even spoils it. That person is surely going to GET IT FROM ME!
It's funny how 50days ago, I tweeted something about receiving or giving gifts.
不管是收礼的也好,送礼的也罢。
如果那份礼物弄丢或遗失了, 双方都会很可惜。
尤其如果对方是很重要的人。
比如, 家人, 爱人。
