Ideas, anyone? : )

Leave it to him to hunt it. Unless he's really not in the mood to do these things for this period of time. You'll be sensitive to know.Originally posted by FeowFeow:Hiyah Ms Romantic,
Later he can't find, then how?
Maybe I'll leave him to find the things, then if he's missed out any, then I point out hehehe
Yes, I plan to write a card along with every little present, or a short note on a small card to place next to the thing. Normally, I don't mind writing long ones, but upon his return, I think he'll be grieving too much & won't be in the mood to read long love letters from me
I like your idea, though : )
And yes, my dear, I do plan to give him a looooooooooooooong bear hug at the airport, a looooooooooooooong bear hug when we reach his place, & a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong bear hug at the end of it all. Then I'll spend my time cuddling him : )

A good start will be the BathRoom where he will use to wash his face. Stick a note (post it to create glare/notice effect) on the mirror. He will definitely find out.
Inside the refridge door.
On the TV screen
Window - More difficulty to find.
Under his pillow - Last gift
Inside his glass/mug
Stove
Door knob
Lightswitch etc....
Happy brain storming.

YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm gonna miss him when I go to the supermarket to buy the ingredients though, it's nicer to do it together with him.
Oh well, nevermind, I'll just occupy myself with the thought of making him smile with the cookies
And I don't point to myself because what I am, I am because of him. So he's who/what I'm proud of. I like your polaroids idea, though I'll make ugly faces & take photos, then serve them with the cookies He'll probably laugh
FeowFeowOriginally posted by M©+square:Cookies, do it!!!. You want me to give you the recipe? (MC also does alot of Gu niang stuff.)
Piano, hmm, do a recording for him?
I asked you what you're proud of....i notice you didn't point to yourself. Why?
I think you are his best present. Take polariods of yourself and stick it everywhere. But make sure don't let him see until he got sick of you.
Cheers! -
Oh dear
Maybe I HAHAHAH open everything for him to see lah

I tell you hor, whenever I go for facial or massage, I'll always try to stay awake & remember what strokes they use, then I'll try it out on my guy
It gives me great satisfaction to hear him go, "Ahhhhhhhh, this feels so good, I can just fall asleep! Where did you learn that?"

read it in chicken soup for the soul... have short slips of notes for him.. hide them in his wallet, underneath the pillow.. whereva! n u mentioned he loves mentos? buy those assorted flavas in packets.. so everytime he finds them.... he gets rewarded with a mentos
u might wanna add a kiss at teh end of the note
-
So loving the details I'll go get the nice nice paper & write the notes, & spray with perfume just before I go & pick him up at the airport (the lipstick kiss mark is great, but I've tried before & ended up throwing away the card, proves my lips are Nowhere as kissable as those printed on normal cards ).
Think I'll buy those individually wrapped ones & feed him mouth-to-mouth

A condom and a Naked YouOriginally posted by FeowFeow:1. A whole pile of Mentos in every flavour. Don't ask He's nuts about them
2. A box of his rum balls from his favourite shop.
3. A box of Kinder Bueno.
4. A Dri-fit shirt (for the damn heat now)
5. An issue of his favourite magazine
2 more? The above is what he likes & needs, but I can't find anything more leh Can someone, anyone, just give me some ideas? It'd be much appreciated

think he wouldn be in the mood bah..Originally posted by Axelheat755:sex is the best stress relief. besides, it will take his mind off thinking about his dad -
Would request that you show some sensitivity & respect here. His dad's dying, I don't think you would want others making fun of you when you're faced with the prospect of losing 1 of your parents.

Must go & find the stamps. But they wouldn't look like real lips, right? More like cartoon cartoon like that I think I should be able to find stickers, though.
And yah, I think I'll inject a little more romance & thoughtfulness especially now when he's grieving. It hasn't sunk in yet, but I think when he sees his family, he's gonna be hit real hard

*smiles* Ok, thanks for your suggestions. Really appreciate it. I'm crossing my fingers that this works fine. Anything to make him smile. In fact, even if he doesn't feel like smiling, as long as he stops his tears for awhile...
To be honest, I feel awful. It's been really hard keeping a strong front, & Not breaking down in front of him, otherwise he'll feel worse. But it's really breaking my heart to see him so sad.

repeat until u dun feel the urge to cry -
Maybe. Eversince we got the news, we've been upset, him very much more so... I can see him trying valiantly Not to break down in front of me as he doesn't want to affect my mood, but his eyes get kinda red. I just cuddle him for a very long time.
That's why I wanted something light-hearted. Too sombre a mood wouldn't do him any good either Plus, he won't be in the mood for full-blown making out also. I'm seeking to distract him from his grief, even if it's only for a little while.
And maybe if I can seek to distract him from his grief, I can distract myself as well...
