Another week passed quickly

Today, Gek Teng knocked on the door at about 11am just to chit chat. So, we were talking and watching "Family Feud" Gameshow together on TV. It was nice to have someone around, compared to being alone a month ago.

After she left at 12 plus to go back and reheat her lunch, I also went to get my leftover fried "Church's Chicken" and heat it up in the oven. Yum. I still enjoyed it though I left it in the fridge for 2 days.

After eating, I vacuumed the whole floor and carpet. Did not take much time and effort as my apartment here is smaller than my house. I have only one toilet here and 2 bedrooms and a small kitchen. So, it is easier and faster to vacuum. At 4pm, I tuned into "Oprah Winfrey" show as I saw yesterday that today's episode will be very interesting. It is about a woman who married this guy and 10 years later, the guy told her that he wants to become a girl. And in the interview, both "husband" and wife were on TV, showing the "husband" having long hair and a total change as "he" went for a surgery to attach a vagina and breasts and took female hormones. It was disgusting..BUT I learnt something from this interview.

What impressed me most is how faithful and determined both parties are willing to stay together. Oprah asked the wife why is she still willing to stay with this "guy", in the same house and in the same room and on the same bed? She answered that the body has changed but "he" is still the same person inside-sensitive and nice. She also said that in her marriage vows, she said,"for better, for worse..till death do us part." Wow..I was amazed. She said she cried when her "husband" told her that "he" wanted to be a girl. And she is not a lesbian. So, now, they do not have any sexual relationship anymore but still stay together. They are like friends now, sharing some of the clothes in the wardrobe, going out together shopping.

It is easy to stay with your partner if everything is normal..but when there are a lot of ups and downs, it is not so simple to stay...like in this case. How many wives will stay in this kind of relationship with another person who has had a sex-change?? It is difficult, isnt it? For me, no matter what happens, I will always be committed and stay true to CT. The interview has really got me thinking, but has also inspired me in some way to be like the wife-dedicated.

CT came home at 6pm and we left the house at 630pm for dinner. Went to "China Super Buffet" about 5 mins drive from our place. Oh..the food they served is the best chinese buffet food I have tried here. So far, I went to 2 buffets already. This is the 3rd one and the best. They have raw oysters and great fresh sushi too! They have snow crab legs and crawfish (it is a mini looking crayfish). I enjoyed the bulgogi beef (korean beef). Very nice! I will definitely bring my family and friends here when they come. It costs 12 US$ per person (plus tax). That is less than S$20. Very cheap for buffet. Like I said, buffets here are cheap.

After enjoying the dinner and great fellowship, we walked around the area. Went in a big sports shop and an electronic shop. Shops here are very big and one level as they have a lot of space here. Went home at 10pm and watched VCD.

Last night me and CT watched one disc already. Tonight, we watched the 2nd disc. It is a swordsman type of show starring Taiwanese, HongKongers and Singaporeans actors, based on a computer game. Quite exciting. Slept late tonight since it is friday!
