The camper in me
I don’t know what to blog about. I think this could be one of the few rare times that I’ve started a post without knowing what I want to talk about.I think that’s cause I’m trying to avoid talking about the one and only thing I have in mind all day long.
Sigh
The only other thing I can talk about is my cooking but I don’t think anyone wants to see pictures of more food..
Sigh
Let me just browse through my camera pictures, post them up and call it a day then.
It snowed again the other day and it was sooo soft
Snow is so pretty before it gets hard and icy and mushy
time to bring out the thick down coat!
The other day a juggler came to our college to perform to us poor students who were here for j-term!
Didn’t have to wear thick coats cause it was like 2 or 3 celcius outside!
Sigh looking at this picture makes me want to be all emo again but I have to refrain! have..to..refrain..from..being..emo..
I think everyone is sick of emo posts anyway! After he left this morning, I kept getting sad whenever I think of us being together all the time T___T My heart aches so much T___T Why do people have to leave their loved ones all the time T__T Who am I going to sing stupid songs with now? Or play territory war with! Or cook and bake with? Or do practically EVERYthing with?
Ok not going to be emo! I’m going to suck it all up like I always did the past few years and live with it. I’m just so tired of being reunited and being separated again and again and again. It’s like you think everything will be fine and dandy now and then poof you wake up alone the next day.
But I guess what matters is at the end of the day, I know despite all that differences in time zones and us being thousands of miles apart, we still think of each other every single second of the day. We might not be together physically but we sure are mentally…. Awww so cheesy but sweet hor wtf
——–
Ok in a pathetic attempt to un-emo myself, let me tell you this story I told Barry last night before we fell asleep.
Back in the days when I was fat (hahaha this is like a legend already), I once told my mom that I was going to go camping. I was about 10 and my mom was pretty reluctant to let me go but she finally did anyway. We went to some jungle and it rained a lot all of the 3 days we were there.
All my clothes were wet and I had no choice but to wear them anyway. So I guess all that dampness caused a lot of friction when I walk, especially when I was kind of fat and my thighs were always rubbing against each other wtf
So it became so bad that I had really bad rashes all over my thighs WTF and I had to walk with my legs apart hahahaha and have to constantly pull my pants away from my skin cause of all that rashes hahahah
Ok so one time, I had to walk from one end of the camping site to the other and had to walk past the main tent where all the teachers were. One teacher saw me walking funnily and out of concern (i guess when you see someone walking like that it’s only normal to be concerned wtf), she asked if I was okay.
I was pretty embarrassed so I had to :
1. try walking faster but the faster I walked, the more it hurt cause more friction WTF
2. pretend everything was ok, smile, and give a friendly wave. “ok cikgu, no problem!”
3. continue pulling my pants away from my skin while walking with legs slightly apart
Yeah I guess it was a pretty big ordeal for a 10 year old to handle that’s why I still remember it now hahaha
Then when I went back, my mom prepared a tub of water with dettol for me to soak in and I found out that I got bitten by a leech…near my..pepet WTF
T_________T
but thank god the leech was nowhere to be found, i think it died from too much blood and just fell down wtf the end
Strange enough, despite all this, I signed up for the next camping eagerly. and the next..and the next. I think from I was 10 to 12 alone, I went to around 8 campings in 8 different jungles all over Malaysia! I guess all that fat thighs and rashes and ok cikgu no problem and leeches only made me of a stronger person wtf
Sigh I miss camping..but I don’t think I’ll ever want to do it again. It was fun as a kid to grow up in an environment where I was constantly pushed beyond my means and tested beyond my limits but as an adult, I wouldn’t want to be pushed like that again. But I don’t know..I might. Maybe someday I’ll get my adventurous mojo back and this blog will be all about hiking and all that jazz wtf. who knows!

omg. you walked around with a leech between your thighs for days?!!!
ok, that doesn’t sound right but omg, so traumatising.
hey.. =) first time commenting on ur post.. really enjoyed reading ur blog all these while.. after reading ur damp-clothes-and-heavy-friction-against-thigh part, i started to think that i wasn’t the only one! when i was younger, i also had those!! mayb cuz of baby fat. LOL especially after playing in the garden while the maid is watering the plants, and i dídn’t want to shower til dinner time. HAHAA
It’s sucky advice but, hang in there. I know it’s the worst feeling in the world but if there’s the a couple out there who can pull through this, it’s you and Barry. In the meantime, perhaps you could try looking at it as some suffering you’ll have to do for a year or two so that you can spend a happy lifetime together soon after:) Hugzzz…
‘if there’s a couple out there’*
I know exactly how you feel and I assure you its normal and a great thing to be feeling like that. I was in a long distance relationship with my bf for all my years in uni (though it was the same timezone) and it was pretty tough. Ppl thought we were nuts to be in the long distance thing for so long but in the end I personally felt it made things more exciting that way. It also gave us our space and a wider network of frens (thou in the end he loved the frens on my side more and got along really well with them -_-) After 4 yrs our relationship has finally moved to a non long distance phase (more like 10mins away phase) and its a wonderfull feeling. It flies by damn fast. Just work at it like u said in your resolution. (e.g. presents, snail mail) You’ll get a different experience from non long distaners! Silver lining!
Well Suet,long distance relationship will always be tough; don’t think it’ll ever work for me.But it will all turn out well for you im sure.
WAHAHAHAHA OK CIKGU NO PROBLEM!
T.T I had the same problem too, thank god the bimbotic jie jie who joined the camp too willing to pinjam the Johnson’s baby powder to me lor. If not, I probably walks like crab until the camp’s over.
haha! youre funny for sure. post up your cooking pictures!!! I wanna seeeee:D
LDR for so many years ? sai lei…
rachel, haha nola i think the leech only got there on the last day! but i didnt feel anything la too much fats kua wtf
me, thanks! ahhaha yeahh but i think this was the only time i actually got rashes kuaa
erandi, sigh yeahh im only emo now cause he just left, i think i’ll be fine after some time. thanks for your encouragement!
hermes, yeah im just waiting for these 2 years to end and hopefully, we dont have to do ldr again after that. thanks for telling your story too!
missycheerio, i hope so too, thanks!
kaede, hahha why didnt i think of using powder T_T
onetwothree, thanks! i will post up later!
allen, T___T damn hard sigh
haha.. damn funny story!! aww.. cheer up.. it’ll take sometimes to get over the emo stage. i just emo-ed last week when we (bf n i) seperated again.. for another 365 days or more god knows!!! yes i hate seperation but ur rite about the future part. so all the best!!
sometime* oppss
Wow. I salute you for being in LDR for such a long time!
I don’t think i can ever go through it.
But if i do, i’ll need some advice from you!
both of you can go thru it, no worries
rmb Bazsuet
HAHAHAHAHA! Leech near pepet!
Your life very interesting leh
hahahaha wtf suet well my fat only causes my tummy pain pain and arms fats flaps flaps problem. thanks to the fats i can get to experience the feeling of being a pregnant woman, like.. have fats compressing like that and those layers of it. and also the arms, felt like having pork chop on both sides but seriously pork chop is nice wtf. anyway however walaubagaimanapun i know i will also and am also going to experience numerous of separates and good-bye-see-you-again-honey-darling-baby-dear-sweet heart in the coming days.
HAIH .
are u constantly amazed that u can be with someone 24/7 and never get sick and tired never want more “space” or do u ever feel like maybe distance is a gd thing makes the heart grow fonder etc…..i remember that after a stint of separation, there’s this tingling feeling when u first grasp each other’s fingers….come to think of it i wonder if that is a mutual sensation
omg the kaypoh-ness and bringing up emo stuff haihh cannot help it im really curious abt the magic of bazsuet ahahah
eh i accidentally cut my comment
wahahaha the okcikgunoproblem line is classic
eh camping in jungles sounds like a world of fun my dream is to go to rainforest fall into the Amazon river and get eaten by piranhas lol yesss the future can bring anything so i’ll just fatten up for the piranhas to be more prepared then i’ll last longer in the river also
eh you should go camping again! bring barry with you one day then you guys can sing camping songs near the fire waahhh last time sing song now sing camping song lagi syok! oh, im sorry if i reminded you of him. =( it’s smth you can put on your to-do list to anticipate his return arent you excited!?!?! =D
eh i also damn semangat go camping last time but now long time never go already and i miss it! boo. but this summer me and the bf are doing a big camping trip going from park to park in the dakotas. so quite excited heehee.
and don’t worry, i’ve never seen a couple as ‘together’ despite being apart as you and barry (if that even makes sense) so i am confident you’ll come out of this unscathed! though i know that sinking feeling you get the first day you’re apart after being together nonstop… not fun
suet the tough girl dun be emo, time flies. you’ll get to see barry everyday soon.
hey. haha this post is funny! XD
just have to withstand da distance for another few(?) years.
u can do it!
distance makes da heart grow fonder ma
but i didn’t mean familiarity breeds contempt ar…
cool! another malaysian in the states
suet I’m on the same boat with you.I know the feeling of separating and reuniting again and again.The moment my bf came back from US last summer then I emo again..cause I knew separation is coming soon.haih..but the thought of working hard now to have a better future together makes me feel better.It took me so long to get over the fact he is back in US cause before he went back I’m with him 24/7 for 2 weeks..just like you and barry.anyway,time pass very fast and soon you’ll be in his arms soon.all the best and one day I will wish you happy wedding wtf

i never cease to be amazed at how tough and resilient you were as a kid. when i was a fat kid and used to get teased a lot, i just cry into my pillow and wished i was a boy so no one could call me an ugly girl anymore haha.
it’s amazing how you managed to build a girls’ basketball team at school all by your own, and how you battled your weight issues by being proactive.
and it’s amazing how you and barry are able to sustain a long distance relationship for so long. and how despite being upset and emo, you can always find a positive outlook in life.
i think i will never cease to be amazed by you.
ok lar my dream is to study immerse myself in the wonders of nature hence taking me to places like amazon river rainforests OCEANS yesss- my family has this running gag about me getting eaten by sharks so they must eat more shark’s fin to avenge me first =________=
but actually i think my dream hasn’t taken shape its still metamorphosizing
hahahahahahahah rashes on thighs hahahahahahaha i was trying to laugh in my office drawer again wtf T_T
kennysia said we have to boycott you .. :/
