It was a typical sat. went swimmin wif vin n his dad at chinese swimmin club in e mornin. hee but we were lazy, so didnt swim e usual no. of laps... then after lunch wif vin n his dad, we spent e entire afternoon watchin... guess wat? hahaha ya la NARUTO of cos =)))

then went fer dinner at parkway. wanted to haf Jack's Place but once we stepped onto e pavement surroundin parkway parade, we were greeted wif tons of pple. my gosh!!!!! n we tot ulu parkway would not b as crowded as orchard on a sat nite... but we tot wrong... apparently all sporeans love to go out on weekends, so no matter where we go, there would b seas of humans...

so e claustrophobic me was super turned off n slightly irritated by e 'pple mountain pple sea' scene n vin was sensitive to my feelings n suggested we go somewhere else like upper east coast to find food. but somehow we ended up at ajisen ramen (think cos we influenced by naruto cos he LOVES ramen hee hee)

ok la ajisen is not bad... value fer money... but e table was quite dirty cos it caused me to develop a rash on my arms (onli e parts where my arm rested on e table)... e manager there had not too gd an attitude as well so overall, not v impressed wif e place la... but oh well, pay peanuts get monkeys ma (recently this phrase appears v often in my office hahaha)

then we decided to explore parkway since we seldom go to dat area n juz nice, there was my fav - pasar malam!!! so we took a stroll there n walked to e marine parade community centre n visited e library. anywae i tok until here, u all muz b thinkin... EH JEAN HO, Y U SO BORING N LOH SOH TODAE??? tok abt all this mundane bo liao stuff...

my point is: it was a normal, sweet sat nite where vin n i went on a once-in-a-blue-moon date. we seldom go on dates cos we like to slack at home. n usually fri nites, we r at our own cells, n sat nites, vin b wif e youths. so i do treasure these weekends where we can spend some quality time together.

yes, anywae, vin suggested dat we could go on our hunt fer some new place to chill out n said dat we could go to this place at fort road. so we took a drive there. actually i skipped alot of details dat do play a part in this story, but well, if i tok too much, u all will box me cos u juz wana hear wat i wana sae later rite??? hahaha... ok la e juicy parts comin la... =Pp

anywae, we drove to cosy bay n it was reali nice... v peaceful n e weather was reali gd, wif a gentle cool breeze n few pple arnd. reali love dat place... not too brite but yet not too dark to give pple e creeps n feel dat its unsafe (like some parks in spore where its dark n scary)...

while we were walkin arnd, i saw a tent pitched on e grass n cos i alwayz wanted to try pitchin a tent wif vin one dae n juz chill out, i pointed it out to vin n said 'wa got tent leh!' so vin said 'ya loh! we go n c la!' then we walked on e grass towards e tent. when we walked nearer, i saw dat there was some candlelight inside so i tot there were pple inside so i started draggin vin away cos we were gettin too near. pai sei leh!!! go n peep at pple like v wat lidat rite... =Pp but strangely vin juz keep walkin towards it n of cos im not strong enuff rite, so scaredy cat jean juz got dragged along wif vin to satisfy his curiousity...

when we got to e entrance of e 2 man tent, i saw rose petals strewn arnd e entrance of e tent. when i peeped in, i saw many tealights lit up n e lites were in shape of a letter 'I' then a heart n then a letter 'U'. then suddenly vin knelt down in front of e tent n took out a box n opened it, revealin a diamond ring, n said 'Dear, will u marry me?'

i was totally, absolutely shocked!!!!! here i was, bein scared of invadin e privacy of others, n suddenly, it was a proposal?????!!!!! so i juz stared at vin fer 2 secs then got jolted back to reality again but yet still couldnt register wat was goin on... so i knelt down wif him n asked him 'huh??? wat r u doin???'

so anywae, think we both aso forgot wat happened fer dat few seconds of confusion caused by my shock hahaha... =Pp but after i gained abit of composure, i asked him 'y u wana marry me?' (hahaha so silly rite, but it was sort of like tryin to make sure i was not dreamin, get some assurance from him, n to buy time fer myself to realise wat exactly was happenin)

yes yes, he told me wat he has alwayz been tellin me throughout our rship, of y he loves me =))) n after dat, i aso got abit of my composure back n... i seriously dun rem wat i said... but im sure i never sae 'i do' HAHAHA... think i nodded n made some sound of agreement la... kekeke... =Pp but then, yes it was reali like a dream but it is not a dream cos vin n i r now engaged!!!!! =)))

altho i've been waitin fer this dae but seriously, when it reali happened, i was totally caught off guard n totally didnt noe how to react... but seriously, after this proposal, its reali an affirmation of our love fer each other. n its like, wa we reali gettin married leh!!!!! hee...

now vin n me still not v sure wat to do... as fer when we r gettin married, would b in 2008 but e exact date, we r not sure yet. details aso duno cos we duno wat to do. we r actually abit lost la... hee... but God will direct our paths!!!!! thanks fer ur prayers n thanks fer sharin our joy!!!!! ^_^
