a weekend of JM
the whole of last week now seems like a dream. it was like a whirlwind of activities as jm and i tried to fit in everything we wanted to do together in just one week. everything we did was actually to make our life as normal as it used to be when he was still based here. i picked him up every morning so we could go to the office together. then we would have lunch everyday and i'd wait for him to get off work at 7 so we could have our evening dates or errands. pretty much what we've always done for the part 5 1/2 years. the best part is that i don't have to drive to and from work - alone!
we watched a movie, elektra, which was something he made me promise to do while he was here. it was an ok movie, not really my type, but well, being with my beloved was enough to make me sit through it. we also had dinner at trellis and dessert at choc kiss. this was after we met with alex franco to discuss the details of our wedding cake (this one got me real excited, can't wait to see our actual cake!). we also went to the spa on thursday, it wasn't to our usual spa, but the massage was really great!
on the weekend, we went to tagaytay for breakfast. it didn't start out right as i ended up in tears while driving and just wanting to go home, but all's well that ends well...we enjoyed our breakfast and the leisurely drive back to manila. we then went to megamall for the travel expo, to scout for cheap flights to europe. unfortunately, the one offered to us by his cousin was still the cheapest --- yes, we've got confirmed bookings to europe! i just hope i'm able to get my visas in time for our scheduled departure --- oh pray pray pray!
today, we spent another normal day with jm accompanying me to the dentist for my regular brace adjustment. we then had lunch at his house and had our siesta thereafter. we also met with our invitations supplier - i'm just glad he's alloted this week for me, as he says. this has been causing me so much worry for the past months.
finally, it was time for me to take him to the airport. surprisingly, we weren't as tearful as his previous departure. although jm had already cried earlier and i tried to appease him by saying that i'd be visiting him in march anyway.
so my weekend of jm is over...what now? it's back to my other normal life, the new one without him = (
