Two years ago I shared my thoughts regularly on WordPress, I thought I’d give it a try this summer once again. This time even more personal as I intend to share more glimpses of my daily life, which is not (in any way) more interesting than anyone else’s. This summer I’ve taken up a 9 to 5 job at a governmental owned company’s Customer Service department. At the end of a workday, I either meet up with a friend for a coffee, go home and make some dinner or hangout with my boyfriend. Between those things, I also try to find slots for an hour or two at the gym. So there’s really nothing spectacular with my life at this moment.
So you see when you confirm your daily life to be dull and regular, there’s one thing you need to hold on to in order to not be depressed; making the most of the little things. My boyfriend turned 30 this weekend and was away with his friends on a trip he planned a long time ago before we met, so we’ve decided to celebrate his birthday this friday instead. To make it special and memorable, I’ve planned a few things ahead. All he knows is that we’re going to do something, that the two of us is going to spend some time together. I cannot wait for his reactions once he finds out what I have in storage for him. 4h Cruising with dinner onboard with additional perks such as presents and cake (in which parts of the presents are personally made by myself). The big 3-0 hit him harder than he anticipated himself, so my mission is to make him feel younger and less closer to 30. Hopefully this cold and rainy weather will have its turn by friday night, so that neither of us catches a cold or something of that kind.
I must say it’s quite the event of the week! Not that I’m not looking forward to meet all my girlfriends on Wednesday night, but celebrating his 30th birthday is somewhat a milestone in life and it will also be the very first birthday the two of us will celebrate together. I never thought being in love with someone who’s a bit older than you will work out as smoothly as it has between the two of us. *Knock on wood* I’m only 22 and yet I feel closer to him than I have ever done to previous boyfriends…Perhaps it’s the fact that he’s significantly older that makes us closer. I don’t think I’ve met someone who hasn’t reacted over the age difference between us. Sure I get that eight years can be a lot, and I would be lying if I didn’t say that I haven’t taken that in consideration as well when we first dated. However, somehow I feel that he’s no more than two or three years older than me when I’m with him. Feels great!
With this said, I bid you all good evening!
