  • ann jie · 1 year ago
    Haha i thought the movie jacket was the interior of martian's jeans or something!!
  • Jazz · 1 year ago
    haha my boy's the same too.. so many different sides. sometimes he's so sweet and mushy, but sometimes he's just plain cold. no likey. :( and sometimes in bed, he'll pull me in closer to him, but once, he kicked me off - off my own bed!! but i think it's good not to know EVERYTHING about the person you're with, cos everyday you learn something new about each other.

    p/s: martian's apartment looks nice! i especially love the bookcase! steal it steal it! hehe.
  • christine · 1 year ago

  • natalie · 1 year ago
    you wanted to put Pink Giraffe on the bed while he didn't want it to come between you two.
    or maybe he kicked Pink Giraffe on the floor by accident and you were angry because you love all your stuffed animals so much.

  • hui wen · 1 year ago
    You looked so pretty in pic #26! <333

    And haihh, I made a scrapbook for my bf for his b'day-- wrapped it up in fabric (so that it's satin-bound), and I cut my thumb with the scissors while doing so, damn deep somemore.. Thwn when I showed him, he just said 'oh, poor thing' then go back to flipping through the scrapbook. T_____T
  • Yin · 1 year ago

    christine : I KNOW I KNOW. please tell him for me!

    ru : sigh did you cry and cry and cry nonstop too!

    jun : yes! but im leaving tomorrow :\

    sheon : a nice fat well stocked fridge is soooooo important. sigh but i will accept and love martian for who he is :( ah sheon you will get your scrapbook soon :) someone like you deserves many, many, many wonderful scrapbooks

    rupert : HE DOES. he also has 'Fatigue - fight it with your blood type'! HAHAHAHA THIS IS CRACKING ME UP. we bought the trolley at this little necklace shop at The Cathay in singapore! hey i love your blog :) what little of it. keep writing ok!

    sooyin : ya i gave it to martian for valentines day! haha you dont like hilary swank? to be honest i dont love her either, but i must admit she is a very good actress. i actually didnt finish the book, but i give it out as gifts to my girlfriends who like chick lit!

    thegeekinpink : i veel pass on ze message :) he will be happy to hear it

    yun : purrfect? is it because i am a cat! hahaha sorry sorry inside joke hahaha

    abby : HAHAHAHAHA DAMN FUNNY YOUR COMMENT i told martian and he laughed also

    mae : we've already watched half of casablanca and love it so far! citizen kane was cool but i think we're too used to modern cinema and big bang blockbusters for us to truly appreciate the artistry behind the movie

    yip : huh how do you know he's working in a bank?

    cookie : thank you!!! can you tell martian that :D he doesnt believe that i am cute wan

    nat : YEAH MAN. and he knows how i hate it!!

    nat : eh yalar why so many nats! nice meh tempur =( so hard =(

    kimberlycun : HAHAHA KIMBERLY WTF ! copulation... that's even worse than fornication... hahahaha

    hui wen : hahaha your bf is such a GUY! but the good side is that he really loved your scrapbook :D

    yin : nope! way more serious than that actually. haha

    julieann : hey thats a really good guess! but no.. he got me the giraffe :) won it at a carnival game. i've been good! HAHA JULIE DONT SAY LIDDAT i can recognise u oredi wan!

    rachel : noper! he doesnt really care about my toys wan.. he just leaves them on the bed even when i'm not around
  • maysnow · 1 year ago
    hee...my guess is that he said the giraffe was purple, but you insisted that it's pink? =)

    anyway this is such a sweet post..how you notice all those tiny stuff and the little gifts and touches by you that make up the apartment..

    one lucky well-loved apartment indeed! =p

    and two luckier tenants! ;)
  • entwined · 1 year ago
    eh casablanca is good! i love the dialougue! :D didn't think that ps i love you the book was great though...nothing special to me :/

    eh i don't know why but i find men's shirts very sexy ok, like in #9. i think that's a sexy picture. :P

    er...you guys argued about whether the giraffe is male or female?
  • k0k · 1 year ago
    OMG, I want to watch Citizen Kane!!! Michael Crichton's Next was so-so only la.

    He said the giraffe was gay. I remember having a same argument with my girlfriend about her ladybug soft toy. Hello? It was a LADY bug with the name Francis. And everyone knows that Francis is the gayest name there is - excepting Gaylord, of course.

    You can be a really sweet girlfriend :)
  • michy · 1 year ago
    Omg! This is soooo sweet!

    I wanna make a scrapbook for my bf too,

    then Martian got jealous. Haha, lame i know! :P
  • Michelle · 1 year ago

    Su Ann,

    You're so funny. Martian and you make such a great couple. :-)

    Got up this morning really cranky (more tired, rather than grouchy-type...although it's already 9.30am, wtf) and your post just made my morning la. So nice.

    :-)

  • iamdoryfish · 1 year ago
    keke, i like tempur pillows as well! It's so SOFT! and it's not cheap eh.. ...and you don't like? :P
  • carolyong · 1 year ago
    haha okay a bit type A so..

    1. the bookshelf hor you should ask him to buy you one that you can put in your dorm when you go to Columbia haha but of course must be a mini one... lol. do they even allow additional furniture? haha.

    2. I ALMOST THOUGHT THE TROLLEY WAS FULL SIZE LOR WTF if you give it a quick glance the way the shadows play almost make it look like a wall AND summore the surface is wooden so like wooden floor la then i was wondering what is that HUGE thing in the trolley.

    then i noticed the "overiszed" keys haha.

    3. the fridge is...... *speechless*. And yah, what in the WORLD are carrot chips supposed to be? ew. hahaha it's not food haha at least not human food. rabbit food maybe.

    and finally!!!!!

    if you thought the movie was good.... the book blows it right outta the water i was sobbing buckets while reading it =P
  • carolyong · 1 year ago
    oversized* sorry so anal and long-winded haha why am i like this.

    Hey UPS the bookshelf balik! hahaha...
  • mindy · 1 year ago
    shit. i was just thinking of asking you whether anot you want to go to zoo bersama-sama and you're leaving :(
  • michellesy · 1 year ago
    I love how you went around and documented the minutiae in Martian's apartment - things that others might not notice, or, noticing, might not care enough about to pick up a camera and take a picture of.

    I have to say, the apartment truly reflects the life you've built together - how sweet is that? It's the very first one you guys moved into as a couple right? Cos he was already renting the HK apartment as a bachelor - not that you didn't put your stamp on it though =)

    But the FRIDGE, what is up the contents of THE FRIDGE? Who puts Doritos in the fridge anyways hahaha! I thought Martian was on that blood-type-thingy diet, so I completely expected the fridge to be crammed full of genotype - appropriate fresh produce (and not mooncake wtf). I stand corrected, yes? =D

    ps: Yes, the bookcase is the bomb - try and bag it if you can! Maybe if you badgered Martian and printed out all these comments in support of your petition you might be able to erm, persuade him hahah =)

    pps: Did Martian wring the giraffe's neck? 0__0 Soft toy abuse wtf.
  • RealGunners · 1 year ago
    wow... u can turn a house into such a long post... great :D

    @carol: me too! started crying around pg 28 onwards...haha....

  • pinkpau · 1 year ago
    maysnow : haha no lahhh how can fight about the color! we're not that petty wan. aww thank you for the kind words about the apartment :)

    entwined : ya i didnt finish reading the book either but the movie is omg so sad. yes sexy picture isnt it :) i love burying my face in his shirts and breathing in. haha NO LAH it's indisputable that Mr Pink Giraffe is a mister!

    kok : citizen kane is definitely a must watch if you're into film. there are a lot of cutting edge (at the time lah) techniques used by orson welles that is supposed to be mind blowing and all.. but it was lost on me cos i dont know the technicalities of film :P HAHAHAHA why did you disturb ur gf like that?! i would have fought with you too if you called my giraffe gay!

    michy : actually that does happen, but not so serious until we fight about it lah :P scrapbooks are the best :) your bf will love it.

    michelle : snickerrrrrssssssss

    voon : why in the world do u know the french name haha. i watched Once the other day! it should have been an album and not a movie. i didnt enjoy it as much as i thought i would have

    ping : i bet it wasnt as cheap as i bought them at chatuchak! :P rm 2 each! YA he read it anyway =( he usually doesnt have time to go online when i'm around cos i use the computer all the time.. haha

    iamdoryfish : NO it's so hard! where got soft!! or maybe martian's kind is a different type...

    carol : no lah i think my dorm will be very small :( YEAH IT'S RABBIT FOOD. all of his food is like hamster food wan =( i hate =(

    grace t : we're trying :)

    eley : eh eh i'm also a nice and understanding gf... :(

    vvens : wrong! hahaha why everybody say like this! we're not so petty until fight about a giraffe's skin color ok!

    rachel : i wish my boyfriend had a blog so he would write about me T____T eh UPS bookshelf damn expensive i may as well just buy a whole new bookshelf with that money!

    mindy : the zoo? in singapore?!?!

    michellesy : yeah we moved in here together in the literal sense of the word, but i dont stay with him here all the time because my home is in KL and that's where my life is. and to be honest i love the HK apartment so much more. for many reasons :) ahhhh yes martian's pantries are FULL of blood type-related food and supplements... i actually took a photo of them but there were so many nicer pictures to put up instead of that one! no lah he didnt abuse my giraffe!

    realgunners : aww thank u :)

    benjamin franklin : nyc stop being mean to my animals

    stay calm : no no no not the color or the gender! why does everyone think my boyfriend and i are so petty :( it was a big fight ok :(

    natalie : no you got it completely wrong :P all i'm saying is that he DOES drop it on the floor, but on purpose.. yet that isnt the reason we fought. eh one buck a lot of money ok, dont say miserly :(

    alea : he has three :P not sure if they're your type though..!

    sieutheng : sieutheng dont CHEAT!

    fern : haha their babies will be such a nice scarlet color

    fresh oysters : dont be envious! be happpyy :D

    may : thank u!! :)

    sooyin : i know what you mean. totally. i actually dont really like looking at her very much, and was very surprised she was chosen for the role. but she and gerard butler have AMAZING chemistry

    and if YOU are into film (and TV shows, literature...), you're going to waste weeks of your life reading articles in this website;

    tvtropes[dot]org

    50% of my online time is spent there.

    the only reason why I haven't watch Citizen Kane yet is because I already know who Rosebud is. Too pop culture savvy for my own good.

    !!! So that's where all the book-reading, decent-movie-watching, random-gestures-of-love men (well at least one) went!

    Sigh and I have one who stuffs himself with Ramly burgers, calls himself fat but is unwilling to go to the gym, sleeps like a log, and reads textbooks, textbooks, and textbooks.

    But but I love his quirkily odd imperfections more than I love his good sides and I think all of us love like that. Love their flaws more than their Darlie smiles and GymBuff body.
    Or is it just me?
