BENTO BENTO!

Here's its history!
Bento are packed lunches...if traced it can be as far back as the fifth centry in Japn.
During the Kamakura Period (1185 to 1333), hoshi-ii was developed. Hoshi-ii consisted of cooked and dried rice carried in a small bag. During the Azuchi-Momoyama Period (1568 to 1600), wooden lacquered bento boxes were produced. During the Edo Period (1603-1868), bento became more refined and widespread. Japanese packed lavish assortments of food into fancy, tiered, lacquer boxes to take on outdoor excursions or to the theater. There are Koshibento ("waist bento"), Makunouchi bento ("between-scene bento"). From this period onwards, bento began to evolve into a sophisticated art form. Special occasion bento are used in celebrations in the home, at Buddhist memorial services, for entertaining guests, and for tea ceremonies. In the Meiji Period (1868-1912), Japan's railway system was born, and the first ekiben ("station bento") were sold.

Isn't it amazing? Not yet.. not yet.. Look at the mouth-watering pictures below!

Went SMU ytd to submit LKY-Sholarship Application form with Phoi Yee ytd. And was busy helping her to matriculate.. andd... I got stuck when I'm about to register the Freshmen Teambuilding Camp (FTB) for her. Sigh... Pissed me off to the core.. After shutting down twice, it don't seems to get working.. Thanks to dar dar who helped me over the phone and I managed to register the same camp with her.

Everything's moving! It's going to get me even more busy each day! Anticipating...

Mood: Sad

It has been 2 days ever since I've gotten that bad news. Yet.. I'm still unable to react the-way-I-want-it-to-be. Sigh..

80 days later... I've to bid goodbye to my dear bf, who apparently has been told that he'll be involved in a short-term detachment to Thailand. Thank goodness... It was just 1 month. I could barely imagine how would I react if it's the usual 2 mth detachment. Sigh..
It's just lately that I realised how fortunate I am that I dun have to suffer the separation with him as he has already been-sent-into-Tekong-Island. Yet yet yet... My lil brain has forgotten that he might be sent for any short-term / long-term detachment anytime soon... Failure to anticipate uncertainties in life.

Well... Uncertainties in life.. Isn't these are what that makes our life more exciting? I questioned this now...

I can't helped.. but tears just keep flowing out from my eyes when I heard of the news.
Before the release of the news, he told me that he has got a really bad news for me.. which sets me thinking what are the bad news? The list of bad news that comes up to me would probably be... he has gotta work on Sunday? or he would be call back anytime for work on Monday?
Well... these are really bad news to me... Yet he told me it's a news that's gonna beat all these 'my-category-of-bad-NEWS'.

I knew it's coming my way however I chose not to say the word out.

'Detachment'....This word is enough to flood my eyes with tears..

So... he would be leaving 10 days after the start of my sch and would be gone the 1 mth where I've to cope in an entirely new environment. I guess I should stop wallowing deep into such negative thoughts...

It's gonna be a challenge in our relationship. And I would categorise it as a minor one thou... Cause I believe after this, he would be called for more and longer detachment. Instead of crying over something that I've no control at all... why not think more positively and face the challenges bravely with a smile.
