He Proposed!!! !!! !!!

*zHigUo + xiNhUi = kUkU & LaLa *

Agh!!!!!!!! Baby proposed to me!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was our 2nd anniversary. As planned, Baby went to fetch me after work at Orchard, and this time round, I didn't know where we were heading for our dinner. Baby wanted to keep me in suspense until the very last minute.

And yes, when I presented his present to him, Baby loved it. He liked the red color, and the design of the duffel bag. Heez~ Throughout the journey to Baby's secret dinner place, we passed by the route that we will usually take when going to Mount Faber. So I thought we could be going there.... But end up, he brought me to Marina @ Keppel Bay. It was my first time there even though I have heard about it several times. It's similar to the club known as One'15(one degree 15). Many rich people 'park' their yachts there, so generally there are will be bars and restaurants to cater to their pleasure. Baby brought me to Prive', which sells nice western cuisine and alcoholic drinks. Actually I already told Baby not to bring me to anymore posh restaurants on this year's anniversary, because I don't want him to spend too much $$, and it doesn't take expensive food to make the dinner romantic. But he wanted to surprise me, as usual, and wanted to make me feel like princess... Heez~

We had our nice dinner by sea side, sort of sea side lah, and we were able to see the beautiful night view of Carribean @ Keppel Bay. It's really a beautiful condo with it's building structure looking similar to the ones you find in actual Carribean. After having our dinner, we went to TCC on level 2 to have our nice mocha and Devils Chocolate cake. Yummy and very contented, and we were lucky we have the window table, and was able to have a nice view of the yachts and Keppel bridge. I thought after dessert we will be heading home when I can open my pressie~

Then Baby said he had part 2 programme of the night, and he wanted to bring me go somewhere walk walk. I thought he will bring me to Mount Faber, because it was our first dating spot 2 years back. Well, it was another surprise of the night, he brought me to Telok Blangah Hill Park, which was something new to me. He said there is this nice new bride there and its nice for walk walk. Alright, I didn't wear the correct shoe today for some hill climbing adventure, so initially I was kind of upset that I had to on those heels that are killing my feet. Baby was really sweet, he offered to carry me on his back up the hill.... Heez~ But I said it's okie lah, just walk faster, then the pain will end faster too.

Luckily it was just a short walk up the hill before we reached Henderson Wave Bridge. The view was beautiful in the night, and the whole bridge was made with wood, Baby said don't know from what kind of special tree. To my surprise, the wooden bridge was very new and very clean, so I took off my heels and walked bare footed! Feeling much better now, can enjoy the awesome night view without any pain~

We were walking and taking pictures with the Canon ixus 860 which Baby borrowed from his office. We didn't have ours because Papa borrowed our camera to China~ At first I thought we will just walk walk a bit, and take some pictures, look at the beautiful night scenery, then go home to enjoy our white wine that we bought at DFS. We completed like three quarter of the bridge and I was feeling exhausted, and Baby was sweating away too. I told him we should probably head back to the beginning of the bridge, since there is no point that we walk all the way to the end, then walk all the way back again. Baby wanted to finish the whole bridge, but I was too tired after a long day, so he said to rest awhile at a nice spot, take some more pictures, then we can head back.

There were quite a number of people on the bridge, but because of it's long and curvy, wavy structure, there were many 'blind spots' for couples to just sit there, and cuddle together. Baby waited for people to walk away, and was hugging me tightly~ just like those usual hugs we have to tell each other how much we are in love~

Then suddenly, to my biggest surprise ever, Baby knelled down and took out the solitaire ring and popped the important question "Will You Marry Me Baby?" ..... I was like in complete shock, my mind was kind of blank at that moment because I didn't saw all that coming so early. I was too blur to answer Baby's question, and he asked me "Will You?" again. I nodded my head and said yes, and he stood up to wear the ring for me.

I didn' really see all of this coming so soon, because I always thought I knew what was on Baby's mind, and he wouldn't be able to surprise me since I'm always too fast and smart to 'see through' his surprises. We planned to have our ROM on 10 10 2010, so I thought he will propose to me only like next year, or on 2010 itself.

I believe every girl hopes to have the 'perfect' proposal, and that most of them would imagine a romantic and perfect location where your beloved boy hands you a bouquet of flowers, and takes out that beautiful ring and ask you to marry him. Well, heck with that bouquet of flowers, and that imaginary romantic restaurant or location, whats most important is that both of you enjoys that "very moment". Though I didn't get a large bouquet of flowers, find my proposal ring in my mouth after eating a specially made dessert, or finds my ring in my champaign glass while drinking it (all these are common scenes in drama and movies), I loved the way Baby proposed to me. It was simple, sweet, lovely, and most importantly, I could see the sincerity twinkling in Baby's eyes. I truly felt love, and knows that this man,whom I love, loves me as much deep down in his heart, even though he doesn't tell me I love You everyday.

I was rather curious why Baby popped the question so early, and asked him why. His answer was rather cute, he said " I must chop you first to make sure you will be mine" Heez~.... very strange way of answering, but very cute though.

We headed for home, and it was my present opening time after we bathe. My present was in a very cute Hello Kitty paper bag. I opened it up to find a book and a pouch inside. The pouch had a pair of swimming goggles, ear plugs, and swimming cap inside. Baby was so sweet!!! He knew I always want to go swimming, but always gives myself excuses for not going, so he bought everything I needed to make sure that I will be well equipped for any last minute swimming sessions. But my favorite was the book, it was a called "The Simple Truth About Love". There weren't million of words in the book to make up a story or love theory. With every page you turn, you will find yourself looking at very beautifully taken pictures of animals, showing how they express their love to their own kind. There will be well written phrases below every picture to express what the picture was trying to tell you. I loved this book. Heez~ Some of the phrases were rather interesting and funny too~

To my Baby~
Thank you Baby, for entering to my life,
you were always there for me to sayang me when I fall down,
to make monkey faces to make me laugh,
to act cute with me when I act cute,
to hug me when I cry,
to hold my hands when crossing the roads to make sure I'm safe,
to carry me when my legs are too tired or too painful to walk,
to buy lunch or dinner for me even though I'm such a pain with my choices of food,
to hold my numerous shopping bags for me whenever we go shopping together,
to pamper me like a princess,
to tahan my sudden tantrums,
to fetch me from work everyday even though you are tired,
to kiss me on the lips every morning when you wake up,
and to do anything and everything for me when I'm too lazy~

We have spent 730 days together loving each other, and we will have the thousands and thousands of more days to come where we will realize that there will be infinite amount of love that we have for each other.

With Lots and Lots of Muacks~
Baby =p
