just minishorts.

*DONG DONG DONG*

In between work yesterday (a.k.a. while waiting for my boss to approve a draft speech), I took some time to quickly do a spreadsheet on the budget we'll be working on for the wedding.

Church ceremony, luncheon, dinner, makeup artists, invitation cards, the dress, his tux, photographers, videographers, decorations, THE HOUSE!, the dinner, favours, the corsages, the bouquets, the boutonnieres, car-decorations, the renovations, the kitchen utensils, the this, the that, the blah… OMG I can buy a Honda City with the whole works!

…

If I don't invite you to the wedding hoh, its not that I don't like you lah okay, it's because I'm too stingy, and I don't quite think your angpau can cover my expenses. *wink*

..

Thus begins the stress…

The bunch of strange people who used to stalk friendster are now unleashing their intolerable freakiness in the elite world of facebook, and the elitist-wannabe in me hasn't grown out of that 'don't touch me if I don't know you phase'.

Do me a favour, just because I *sometimes* blog, and just because I *sometimes* put up photos of my life here in my online journal, DOES NOT MEAN that I am keen on having the whole damned world peeking through my windows and checking out the upholstery and bedding that I have displayed…

In other words, if I have never met you before, fuck off.

So here, if you wanna get to know me, get creative, write an e-mail, say hello or something. Or worse, join AsiaWorks *gasp*, if you're in some local university, join Aiesec …

Or pray that by some weird circumstance God will have us meet each other.

…

Other wise don't even try. I am sorry but I'm a bitch like this. Some people just won't change, yah?

So many well-wishers and OMG-ers! ^_^

I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW, I'm so lucky!!! This was what I got in my phone's inbox last night:

May I please say How envious I am of the fact that you've got the sweetest fiance on earth?

I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW!!

…

Here's the incredible part. Yes we've been talking marriage for some time, and there's been twice that I thought he was proposing to me, that which turned out to be false alarms. We've been teased till our noses turn red by relatives and friends, and I've gotten sick of running away from the 'when are you getting married question' (OMG yeah and I get it a lot more these days, but we haven't set a date yet).

I knew that we were going to tie the knot one day, it's just I didn't expect him to do the move the way he did. You know? We've been dating for such a long time, what with the 'mushy' and 'honeymoon' part of our relationship over eons ago, I thought we were just going to smoothly walk into the 'Ma today over dinner Eric and I decided that next year we would get our relationship officially registered,' and then we would booked a day at the ROM, do the so Chinese thing.

So when he gave me the gift, I really thought it was just a birthday gift, and with the ring on it, I didn't think that he would actually turn the whole thing around into the romantic 'will you marry me' that Eric did.

I was so deliriously shocked and crying that it was an actually proposal that when Eric put the ring box in my hands I said in between tears and sniffles, 'No need ring also I say yes lah!!'

Man, just how 'sam-pat' can you get right?

Anyway I'm the luckiest girl on earth right now, my fiance (gosh it actually feels quite weird calling Eric a fiance instead of a boyfriend) is the sweetest hunk in the world, and I have no doubts that he's going to be the greatest husband in the whole whole universe! (Sorry lah I'm still on cloud nine… )

He's mine! Muahahahhah and all the men in the world who're planning to get their women to marry them have just gotten their next benchmark, thanks to my man!

Oinks. OK I know I HARDLY blog my life these days, but not everyone turns 27 every day, so this post is special. Lots of pics, be-warned!

I spent the entire day slouching over my laptop at my colleague's desk, that even when the florist came to deliver Eric's bouquet I didn't know about it. Poor guy had to wait till 6 pm, call me up to ask me, 'Eh you never receive anything meh?' before I realize that 'OMG yah hoh today is my birthday and my boyfriend hasn't given me anything…'

OK… I'm NOT really that materialistic lah. But the flowers, OH THE FLOWERS… 30 stalks of roses (OMG, biggest ever)… last years was amazing yes, but this years was a shocker (I'm still sore over not being able to receive and sign the slip from the delivery guys).

I don't ever share the notes he writes to me. But this year is special, so here it is.

(more…)

Lots of well-wishes and a loadful of smses today.

Because it's a busy day at work (we're announcing our Financial Year results today), I can't find the time to individually thank all of you.

But I've read it all, and I thank you all!

XoXo & Etc,
I love you.
