Last night my friend share a great news, that she was pregnant and I'm so happy for her.
And not so happy for my self.. here I am loosing another hang out buddy, she said that her husband would prefer that she didn't leave the house very often during her pregnancy, we also cancel a lot of our plan because of it. I wouldn't want to travel with her either, because, you know it is a very sensitive moment for her, and she has to really take care of her body.
I remember making friends with a mom, back in San Francisco... Geez, you have no idea, when your friend asked you a favor :"Kristin, can you please take care of my 3 years old son?"
That was like a nightmare, I remember the first day of Spring break: I went with her to Academy of science with her son, and the next day, having to baby sit... and Voila!! I got sick for the rest of my spring break....
I couldn't even get up and purchase medicine at Walgreen.. I was THAT sick..
And when my friend knew about it? she wasn't even sympathetic, she just tell me :" Welcome to my world, baby."
"Only two days, and you're already down??" daring me, like that...
So I made up my mind that when my friends turn into mothers, it's time to set up some boundaries...
I can help you move in, move out, listen to your relationship junks, help you buy groceries, company you to lunch, brunch, dinner, and outlet shopping, cycling, trekking, etc.. BUT never ask me to take care of a baby!!
oh, btw i loved my baby nephew so much..LOL #obsessed
BTW I just set up Netflix in my room and I am so not going anywhere...(cause Netflix helped me to be more productive, you know, like sleeping...)
Recently I watched ALI WONG... SHE IS SO FUNNY...
I also watched The End of The F*cking World..
SO GOOD
in love with Dark Comedy..
Also, this one is not on Netflix, But I also loved 'The Lobster' ... super dark love (not so) comedy.
( I wouldn't really say this is a comedy, though... it gets really gloomy and dark, Maybe because I watched it with a friend that just recently ended his five years relationship with his girlfriend due to money issue)
Yep, Thinking about it, it was really gloomy back then, 2 or 3 years ago, I was left behind, he was left behind. I was smart enough though, not to jump into a relationship with him, because that would be f*cked up... He would tell me all sort of melancholic stories, of how he moved to the State. That he tried paranormal, psychic, fortune teller, etc. All kinds of girls he dated. Which is super interesting.
I remember one night, it was one of my last few nights in San francisco. We went to watched a movie, and it was just the two of us, late at night. I don't remember what movie we were watching, what I know is that he was talking about a fortune teller that he met years ago. The fortune teller just looked at his face and started writing things down. One of the things that the fortune teller wrote is that, when he moved to the State that he won't came back to his hometown anymore ( which is true) that he would meet a woman with a very beautiful eyes ( which is also true, his girlfriend of 5 years has very beautiful eyes). And then he started talking about going to psychic and getting into a state unconsciousness, and started remembering his past reincarnation... (which to me sound like hoax)
Anyway, on our way back home, he say to me that his story about the fortune teller hasn't finished yet. That there's bits of it that he hesitate to share with me. ( the Uber driver slows down WTF)
Obviously I acted like a child filled with curiosity.. " what, what, what... tell me now!!"
"And the fortune teller told me that there's a guy that has always stayed by my side... his initials is A"
I'm like "WHO?"
"Oh, I think what he meant was my late grandfather, his initials is A"
It was really late at night, and we were in front of my apartment, at Inner Richmond, cold and foggy.
( and I live alone) you have no idea how scary that was for me..
Anyway, I think it is OK to share this story, since it has been years, and It's not like I ever gonna share names here..
