In Seventh Heaven

Archive for December, 2009

That’s right after the power was back at my BA’s neighborhood. I’ve written previously about their place experiencing power outages because of the heavy snow that fell on the 18th of this month. They had their power back after 3 1/2 days. Imagine that? I never thought winter could be such a disaster. I never experienced power outages that long in my entire life. The longest we had here was about eight hours only.

But gladly, that problem was over. And now, BA and I are back to talking on Skype. We haven’t done it in those three days. Good thing, his cellphone haven’t had problems. (“,)

Power outages, no internet connections and major highways closed. Those are just some of the things that happened during the heavy snow on Friday, December 18th at my BA’s state which is just among the many states that was affected.

My BA was actually stranded at work because one of the highways that was closed was his road back home. But no problem, BA was able to entertain himself while at work. He called me several times and that kept me entertained too. LOL. Good thing, his cellphone provider didn’t have problems. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have communication at all.

…’Til my BA and I will meet again. And we both don’t know when that time exactly will be. Probably a year from today and just thinking about it kind of makes me sad because it seems such a long time to wait. Well, at least we both have something to look forward to and that’s one thing that gives us strength to hold on.

It is tough being away from each other like this though there’s an abundant of phone calls and emails everyday. LOL. Well, for those of you who have tried being away from their loved ones could definitely relate to what I am saying here.

Oh well, I just have to be tough!

Defined by Wikipedia as the figure of speech concisely expressed by comparing two things, saying that one is the other… is what my BA often use in his emails and when we talk or chat. He’s such a poetic man – using metaphors to express his feelings which makes me feel like I’m Juliet listening to Romeo. LOL.

Oh well… I think I’m beginning to get cheesy again here. Hee hee. He’s been using a lot of metaphors that I actually forgot all of them. Oh my! I’m dead! Nah, I think, they were just so deep for me and I kind of having difficulty comprehending them but I did feel every word being said, from him to me.

Anyway, I found one metaphor online that I really like…

• “But my heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill.”
  (William Sharp, “The Lonely Hunter”)

For the record, I am not lonely. But of course.  I just like the way it sound or rhyme. Nice, huh?
