We’re on the last leg of the legal hullaballo attached to our marriage. aside from my big move here in
april, mark and i had tied the knot, moved to a new abode, filed for my petition, applied for my ssn, my drivers license. last stop is our interview.
man, fixing all that is a job in itself!
ive tried learning flash & some simple coding and pushing for freelance jobs, problem is, my relatives who want a website dont seem to know what they want.
on top of all the parties, and my new obsession: baking, i havent really much time for myself.
adjusting to married life was pretty easy…mark and i have stayed together in 2005, 2007-8, and now in 2009. i had expected some resistance from my family but they seemed pretty liberal minded about it. Esp my new mother-in-law, who, in the past few years is proving to be one of the most caring women i have ever met.
She takes me shopping a lot but even conversing with her over a cup of coffee in an afternoon is a nice way to relax. She makes a lot of sense. If it weren’t for her, i’d be incredibly homesick for my mom & yaya…altho my mom would probably take this the wrong way should she be reading this. she should know that no one can ever replace one’s own mother.
I bet Mark feels the same about his mom even if they dont agree on a lot of things.
The important thing is, we all constantly learn from each other and are willing to live and forget and love.
This I hope we can imbibe in our children someday and live passionate real lives & not mimick apathetic teenagers from the celluloid screen.
