Bedtime Horrors

So currently I'm listening to the Muttons on 987fm while studying and they are on the topic of the troubles they face with their sleeping parters. & I was thinking to myself about the things Tien does to me when he's asleep and also about how long I've not updated my blog so I decided to do this post. 

I'll name it:
Bedtime Horrors with Tien

Okay, just a little info about Tien's sleeping habits, he falls asleep VERY fast and by very I mean about 5-10 seconds. Also, he is a very heavy sleeper. Attempts to ask him to watch me sleep ('cuz I'm afraid of being the only one awake) and also to wake him up in the middle of the night has failed through and through.

1. He takes up soooo much space, whether we're sleeping on a single or king sized bed, he will fall asleep taking half the bed space but will gradually open up and squeeze me to a corner. It's so bad that I always ask him to sleep on a separate bed if possible.

2. He loves to put his arm on my face. This has happened a few times where his hands suddenly smacks my face and I jolt up. Yes, it does hurt. There was this once where his elbow was on my face but I didn't move 'cuz I was too tired but he continued to stretch and push his elbow towards my face. Omg imagine if I could take a picture of how my face looked like.

Ok, the scariest story for the last one.

3. In BKK, he was sleeping with my father in the other room but there was this one night where I couldn't sleep so I asked him to come over to keep me company. We eventually fell asleep while he was hugging me. Halfway thru' the night, I felt choked up a couple of times but I was too deep in sleep to open my eyes and see why. But it got so bad that I pried them open only to realise Tien was strangling me. It really wasn't a joke. I could feel myself breathing with only half of my windpipe. I tried to wriggle myself out of his arms but instead he intensified his grip around my neck. This was when I really started to panic 'cuz my vision was turning into a blurry sight and it was darkening. I elbowed him a couple of times but he still wouldn't wake up. I gave him 1 final blow and he was startled awake. I was sooo afraid I was close to tears.

After we went back to Singapore, we had news that his granny passed away on that same day at 4am, roughly the same time the strangling incident took place. 

I'm not saying his granny's death has something to do with his horrible sleeping habits but it's just kinda coincidental, don't you think so?

Best thing, he never remembers anything he does to me when he's asleep.
