10 things should be easy. Haha. Afterall, I did 1 for Facebook already. To keep it interesting & so you don't have to read a repeat, I'll just write up another 10 things about my life. Since it's this close to V Day, I'll write about Jeff & me.

1. The 1st time I met Jeff was in NYP Year 3, between Blk J & K. We basically did that "cha jian er guo" thing like on TV. I only noticed him becoz he was surrounded by a bunch of girls which is very common coz guys are really rare in nursing. (It's those I've seen you around in school but I don't know you thing. Of course, neither did I know that this guy whom I didn't even give a 2nd look is to be my future husband.)

2. I 1st noticed Jeff on 2nd June 2003 during orientation at our 1st real job. At that point, I didn't associate him with that guy I've seen once in school.

3. I was attracted to him (don't ask me why) but I didn't have any reason or excuse to talk to him coz even though we were in the orientation together, we were in different groups.

4. My chance came when we were posted to the same ward. I guess you can call this fate coz I was supposed to go to an O&G ward which is a discipline that I like. But there were last min shufflings becoz the general medical ward was lacking staff & I got posted there. So, when life takes something away from you, it has to give something back. In my case, it took my favourite O&G away in place of Jeff.

5. Our preceptor was to guide the 4 of us new staff in 2 cubicles of 8 patients each. To be fair, we had to draw lots to see which 2 would share 1 cubicle. As fate would have it, Jeff & I picked the lot for the same cubicle. Outside, I was cool. Inside, I was shouting "YES!!!". LoL!

6. Citing "easier to contact about work" as an excuse, I asked Jeff for his number the next day after work.

7. We arranged to meet at the bus stop where we alight to walk in together from day 3 of starting work at the ward.

8. We went on our 1st date on 10th July 2003 when he asked me to be his girlfriend.

9. After patoh-ing for 3.5 years, we got married on 9th Dec 2006.

10. We just celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary & coming 10th July this year, we would have been together for 6 years. I still can't believe how far we've come & I look forward to the path where both of us will continue travelling on.
