::back at work::

i'm back at work after two days' leave. everything feels a little different. almost forgot the way to work. but i managed to get here nevertheless. was slightly late but i guess it's ok.
i'm still emotional, and a little teary-eyed. still not used to my deardear not here with me. but i'm learning independence, and learning to stand on my own. he's always pampering me, i'm utterly spoilt by him. like a prince to his princess, he always gives me the best. i miss him badly, and i still have 9 more days before i see him again. *yay*
he was late for his enlistment yesterday. it was scheduled at 2pm, and it was stated that transport would be provided from 1-1.30pm. i guess by some strange reason, we missed that sentence even after reading it for the hundredth time. so we got there at 1.45pm, and the nasty officer said it was too late, the bus left, and the ferry would have already left as well. we wanted to race down to the ferry terminal with a cab, but that horrible guy said it was no use. fine, so we had to wait with the 3pm batch. all in all, we were late for an hour. never mind. what i could not and cannot accept was that, robbie han, his group-mate in the final semester, the disgusting guy who tried to get into my boyfriend's group (because their group was almost the best), and who eventually did after buying over yang and zhongli, the guy who was also scheduled the same enlistment day and time with my boyfriend, didn't inform him when he didn't see my boyfriend there. ok, give him the benefit of doubt you say, fine. maybe its because the crowd was crazy, and somehow, he just didn't see my boyfriend, and couldn't find him even though he must be at least 1.75m? acceptable. but what about the innovation called mobile? it would have been impossible for my boyfriend to miss his call, that is, if he even did try in the first place. it would have also been impossible if his battery was flat because any sane guy would have fully charged his battery before entering the island where chargers aren't allowed for the first 3 weeks. amazing. i'm lost for words for that guy. he totally just cared for himself, and didn't bother about anyone else. how disgustingly selfish is that? but i'm glad my dear witnessed for himself, how much a 'friend' robbie is. and we understand now, why we were late. it was in God's plan. it was in His mighty plan to let us miss that sentence, just so we would be late and see how selfish that guy is, and warned us about the contempt this guy has in his selfish black heart. wicked.
if he had even bothered to give my boyfriend a call at 1.30pm when he was boarding the bus, we would have still made it to the ferry terminal on our own and got to the island and per planned. never mind.
lesson learnt: everything happens for a reason. you may not see the reason immediately, but as long as you meditate on God's mercy, you will realise how wise and sovereign our Father is in heaven! in my da-jie's email to my deardear, she specifically mentioned one sentence, which would teach the both of us a lesson we would remember for life, "everything happens for a reason". i thank God for His wisdom, and i thank God for using my big sister as an instrument. thanx big sis/bro, i owe you guys one! ;p
