yet another easter

This time we would be dividing my expressive paragraph into two. Just in the need to change up the way things sit. I'm feeling utterly uncomfortable today! From my silly fringe (so regret cutting), to my bloated tummy, dehydrated body, the chilly chills that creep up to me and mostly the thought of moving out. But i keep things bright , just imagining the house. A moment where i can let out a giant "sigh" and go ah i am homeeeeee....



So what do you think? Doesn't it smell of home! Hahaha, I guess you can call me a traditional house wife with the perfect home being defined as a lovely Victorian home with a garden and timber floor. However, before we go any further. I am going to make a list to see whether i can truly be called "wifey"

Wife characteristics
1. Love cooking
2. ANAL behaviour of cleaning
3. Love groceries
4. Even more in love with markets
5. Curling up in our space
6. Shopping for unnecessary bits and pieces to make it more homey
7. Yelling at ajie on a daily basis

Modern characteristics
1. So so about laundry, prefer to do my share
2. Washing should be done fair
3. Work long hours
4. Always on my lappie even after work
5. Independent on my social outings
6. Going dutch on expenses
7. I need my healthy range of food

So, then i googled the role of a "traditional housewife"


A homemaker handles household responsibilities as his or her main daily activity. While not an occupation in the traditional sense, as it is not usually undertaken for monetary remuneration, a homemaker may work full-time to maintain the home environment. The term emerged as part of the 'politically correct' movement. The occupation is typically taken by one adult of a household, such as a parent of a child unless all working age individuals in the household work full-time. If the homemaker is part of the family, a female homemaker is usually termed a housewife, and a male homemaker, a househusband. The domestic consumption work[1][2] of homemakers provide goods and services directly within a household, such as cooking meals, childcare, household repairs, or the manufacture of clothes and gifts. Common tasks include cleaning, cooking, and looking after children.

So, this marks the point of life where home comes first before settling anything else. Looks like most friends are heading down the path despite getting engaged before any of them . I am so happy to see that our generation is getting a better grasp on forging a unit with their partners. I guess not necessarily the gage of being married but you know carrying on to another level through different types of commitment. Love is in the air for 2010
