Today is a very SPECIAL day
Today is my GF's birthday, kindly send her your regards at her blog's shoutouts. ^^
I have also got to know a matter of significance from my sister. We were just chatting last night and she said that, our parents, esp my mom, actually knows about my GF and I and they have accepted us.... Now I know how it feels like to be the last one to know about it. The feeling is amazing.. I never felt like this before.... My mom actually wanted to buy a place for us in SG so that "we need not run around" [my mom's own words] with 3 of our names. I always have this fixated idea that my mom hates me and has enormous expectations of me (when compared to my sis) and all, and she blames herself and my relatives for allowing me to wear pants when I am younger. On a lighter note, I never knew that pants made females L E S B I A N!!!! I didn't know my mom confided in my sis and I didn't know anything all along. I was like,"Why didn't you tell me earlier....?" Sis shrugs and gives me the look,"See, I told you mommy loves you all along.."
It's like 2 years ago, we had a very bad bust-up; my mom quarrelled with my GF and chased her out of my home. From that point, I practically stayed at my GF's place for like 1 year, only to come home to clean my guinea pig cages. That was before I started working after I graduated and came back from Darwin's Arafura games.
As time passes by, my mom kind of wore off the effect of anger (or so I thought) and was much nicer to my GF. She's been really decent to her but my GF reckons that my mom is neurotic! She's afraid that my mom might bust-up on us again.
My dad...
It's funny that my dad keeps calling my GF "his other daughter" and I thought he was just being funny, but in actual fact he actually knows about us and simply quite cool about it. My sis and I reckoned that my dad spoke to my mom about us and my mom also spoke to her friend in church who also has a lesbian daughter like me and came to terms with my uniqueness.
Special thanks to....
someone who came to my place for dinner even though she didn't know me at all, and inevitable helped me out to my sis (when my sis already actually knows about my GF and me) when I always had this thing about wanting to tell my sister about us but couldn't encroach the topic. I think I could never thank her enough as she had paved the way I should be taking about myself. You know who you are, if you are reading this: YOU ROXXORS!! PLS PLS LEAVE A NOTE ON THE SHOUTOUT IF YOU ARE READING THIS!!!
Not forgetting
all my lovely friends who had accepted me as myself and have helped in one way or another about this whole outing process.
Now I am like WTF? Who outed me? [shrugs]
You know this saying when it happens to you:
"I was looking for acceptance but I found love..."
/me out
