Days (maybe weeks hehe) back, Haikal and I ‘celebrated’ our 6 months together. At this age, I have to say that 6 months feels like not much of an accomplishment as of yet. I recall back in secondary school, I would get SO darn excited when my relationships cross the first month’s mark. Maybe it’s all the experiences (though not much) of being in and out of relationships that heighten expectations.

Furthermore, won’t you all agree with me that the current span of 6 months cannot be compared to the 6 months years back? I feel that time has stepped up its speed, though I’m unsure if this phenomenon comes with one’s age or an element of nature and evolution.

Some might say that half a year is well, quite a period, but up till today I still feel as if I’ve just known the Boncet Boyfriend of mine only yesterday as he kept surprising me with his actions and the way he reacts to all of mine. Truly, what I said about him making me fall in love with him every single day still stands, Alhamdulillah :)

By the way, perhaps I’m contradicting myself by saying it feels like not much of an accomplishment as of yet, but then again I still feel we should cherish each moment, no? I mean, how many times in a relationship can you ‘celebrate’ your first, second, or sixth month? Hehe…

And I’m using quotations to all my ‘celebrate’, as what I mean is that Haikal and I just make it a point to meet and exchange small gifts, like letters, cards or flip-comics as we don’t have the luxury of money. But no matter, as sometimes, I really think it’s the sincerity and actions that speak louder then cold hard cash and materials.

For example, dining at a cheap restaurant we’ve both been meaning to try or wrapping up something he was already expecting to get and getting the waitress to deliver it with the food. Sounds really plain and simple, but who would have thought it would lead the boy to tears? :)

After which, we headed to a location we used to frequent a lot before work and school came into the equation and had a ball of a time luging down the hill, going snap happy on the breezy sky ride and just enjoying the sea breeze at a ’secret’ spot we found which I coin “The Very Edge of the World”.

Now if I tell you where it is, it won’t be a secret anymore, wouldn’t it? Haha… Let’s just say from where we were seated, it really feels like we’re at the edge of the world. Just be a tad more adventurous then others, take the forbidden road and it’ll lead you straight to our nook heh heh heh.

A very wise e-mail told me that if I were to get into a relationship with someone, make sure I find it enjoyable to have conversations with him as when time catches up, conversations are all that we have left.

Which is true, I guess. The things that reaches our inbox’s these days, ey? Quite surprising that between all the offers for penis enlargements and helping a poor rich Nigerian orphan transfer his funds over, there are stuff worth reading such as the above.

Sorry I digress. So anyway, yup, talking about everything at the top of our heads while doing the stuff we love to do was how we spent the remainder of the day together :) Simple, but very, very enjoyable nonetheless.

6 months of endless happy trippy days. Nay a boring day with my Haikal :) Here’s my Dua that this is just the beginning, InsyaAllah. Thanks for everything, bie!

P/s. Woah! Super long post! Think I’m getting my groove back hohoho!
