The Scientist

As much as The Reluctant Scientist wants to, its time for her to become The Scientist. She has been putting in alot of time in the lab. And hence the almost zero number of blog entries.

So dear readers (if there is any :p), you dun have to come here regularly for updates. I will post but probably once in a blue moon. Come and check my blog if u think of me once in a while. But let's catch up through other means.

I am missing him right now

We have been apart for 10 months now. By the time he comes back for CNY, we will be separated for a year.

My friend ask whether it's hard. Yeah, it sucks. We have given up alot for this wretched PhD. And we are too deep in it (sh-IT) to get out.

I miss waking up with him in the mornings. Running my hand through his messy hair. Feeling his ticklish morning stubble (Stubble: Short, rough surface of beard.). I miss his snores at night. I miss the deep, sleepy voice that says " Baby, I love you " before falling into a deep slumber.

Last New Year's eve, we had steamboat for dinner at home. After that, we strolled out into the winter night. It started to snow :) and we made our way to the nearest coffee joint for a warm cup of coffee. We stood by the windows and watched people pass us by. It was cold and the windows misted from the inside. I wrote on the window- I love U. He wrote- Ditto.

The night ended with a round of fireworks by the harbour.

This year, I am spending the festive season jingle bell-ing with the cells in the lab. Sigh.
