Married Life

From the day I said “I do”, I started to be a housewife. It was never my dream to be just inside the house but I must say that I’ve enjoyed it and still continuously enjoying it. My vision of a wife is someone who is always available for her husband, someone who takes in charge of everything – the food, clothing, house. I’ve seen how my grandmother served my grandfather until the last air that he breathe and that’s what I wanted to be.

I woke up around 5 AM and started to cook. I act slow that’s why I have to start early. Cooking was very new to me and it was really a challenge. Before, I never stepped into our kitchen to cook, it was always my mom who prepares everything for me. As a new wife, I had to impress my husband. I’ll wake him up around 6, we eat together and I wash the dishes afterwards. At 7:30 am my husband starts to leave our house. By this time, I’ll go back to sleep again and get up around 9 am. Cleaning our house was my favorite, it was never hard because our house was small.

At around 11 am, I started preparing my husband’s food for lunch which will be brought to his office. My lunch was always served in my in-laws house since I was always left alone in our home. After eating, I take afternoon naps, watch TV or DVDs. Around 5 pm, I started to cook again for our dinner and wait for my husband. Night time was only our moment to bond. Sometimes, I got bored but I always fill my schedule with a lot of house activities.
