The Proposal.

How did you Proposed again Dear?

I still cant believe it. Do you? Girlfriends are laughing their Asses off after hearing my sadistic proposal.
Now many of you would Dream of having a Man on his knees saying "Will You Marry me?" In my case, my hopes just DASHED near to the Longkang just opposite anak Cik Som house. You see the above picture. You got it. Of all places. Geylang Serai Market and Food Centre was his choice to propose to me. Yes Me! The IT girl! The Love of His LIFE??

In my heart was like come on...was this a freaking joke or a nightmare?!!! Somebody Slap me!! Which I did it self-servicingly 5 minutes after he said the so called "magic" word.

Tell me What happen to the likes of Sunset in Sentosa or or Romancing near any River? At least Yishun Dam will look better than a Pasar..yes? 

A true blue Malayan blood I would say. Proud for him to be having Malay stamped on his I/C. Pffft!!!

Well it wasnt any sweet nothings that was hushed to my ears.....Let me re-enact the whole script for ya.

(As I was eating my Pasar Malam Sambal Kway Teow Goreng)

Him: You know what Byy? My friend Aizat ( or Something like that the name cos I was concentrating more on peeling the prawn on my brown paper) he is getting engaged already you know. How about us? I think we should also think about it. We should also get engaged too right? What say you??

Me: *Gulp and I say "Did you just propose to me?"

Him: Yeah...some sort like that.

Me: *Blush. ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh BUT WAIT!!! You proposed to me in Pasar Geylang while Im having my early sahur in the month of Ramadhan????!!!!!!

Him: Good what. More berkat. People never do i do larrr. Its good what Geylang Serai. Follow tradition.

Luckily, the stools were attached to the floor if not. Somebody would have been sent to the nearest Hospital. Not that I'm a materialistic bitch but cmon man....why are you doing this to me??? 

This is the only part in my life that I want it to be magical. romantic. something like what you see in the movies and read in the Sweet Valley High School Novels.Ohh welll....its over and done with. At least if i had known earlier that he would want to propose, I would have emailed him a script. To hell with Integrity and screw the code of cheating. At the very least, I could have heard sweet nothings and for the rest of my life pretend that he said it from the bottom of his heart.

But who's perfect?

I remembered a quote that I chance upon while Googling on the net. It somehow teaches me how not to have over expectations in finding your perfect half. It goes like this,

" If you go all out to find the perfect man, are you a Perfect Woman to begin with?"
- From Dunno Who (Sound something like that  larr) 

Stabs you in the heart doesn't it? It got mine too.

What We Have....and the Things that I still Want.

So, lets start with the basics, both of us has finally decide the items we want to be part of the "Tukar Dulang" ceremony or the exchanging of gifts and whatnot. And I found that mine is still so little. Pouts. (Only like 6 trays.Dammit.)


And as I stressed this again to myself that the whole ceremony might not be happening this year due to His certain circumstances.(Why must I always do this to myself and feel such a sinner?)


It is not a Sin to just dream and angan-angan right? I mean, "Hey Dude, I've been dreaming of my own Cinderella Wedding ever since I was 5!! Yes!! 5!! And I've always LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about the wedding minus the MOOLA and just let me dream alright.


So huushhh.....lets get back to the stuff that we've gotten:


#1: RING. (the MOST important of all the important-ness of other things).


*Having a Degree in English Literature and a written lingua franca above, my lecturer wont be so pleased to read this)

And yes....Ladies, We Bought Our Rings at Tiffany and Co. (Yippeee)
Getting OUR rings at Tiffany and Co. was definitely coincidental.We have never ever dreamed that OUR engagement aka rings that we have to wear for the rest of our life will be from the above brand. Wish I could even take a picture or a video of our journey towards the boutique and look at it for life. It was just a normal family outing with Parents and cousins and we chance upon the shop and I say to him. "You wanna try take a look?" An He says Ok. And there it is, we finally got our PERFECT rings. And when other Snoobers saw it and their rings is just from your 'ol neighbourhood Lee Hwa and Taka Jewellery. Well I would definitely show you my FOURTH Finger!!!!

#1





Alright so I'm starting a blog again. Randomly on a Terrible Thursday chance upon a bride to be blog and thought to myself..."Hey why not start my own??" 'cos isnt that what Brides to Be supposedly does? So that once u reached your 10th Wedding Anniversary, you will just type the URL and reminisce your days of being a Bride when you are already a mother of two? Then you will start whining to your husband..."You know dear, I miss those days when we are planning for OUR BIG DAY and all the flashbacks runs thru your head and all he could ask would be.."WHERE'S MY DINNER?!!!"


Ohhh well.. that's life and I could foresee stuff not that I'm a Psychic or anything. More like turning into a Psycho perhaps seeing HOW KIDS NOWADAYS ARE BEHAVING AND HOW MY CHILD IN THE FUTURE WILL BE LIKE. Will they turn Emo? Will they Shuffle through their feets till the next door nieghbours yelled?


I dunno. Not Yet. Cos as the blog says I'm just a Babbling Bride starting to babble bout the Perfect DRESS. RING. GUBAHAN HANTARAN COLOUR. WEDDING DAIS. And many many other things that I am still not aware of and this blog is supposedly to keep me sane and include updates of my progression in the Bridal Circle.


And not to mention I'm nowhere near there yet. Cos I'm only supposedly to be ENGAGED in December. But not to mention it's like a crazy preview of the REAL BIG DAY. When your mom wants to invite 300 Guests and your fiance decided to bring 4 Coach Buses of family members. Sigh. I'm just LOST.


For the fact that the ENGAGEMENT will or will not be happening this year. I leave it to the Almighty Allah to decide but I do hope HE Grant this small little teenie weenie wish of mine considering me going to have a Grandaughter or a Grandson very very soon. (and very much  so malu that among my cousin, I am the only one still enjoying the likes of Cafe Del Mar and unmarried) *Gulp.


And NO. I am not a 40 year-old spinster who cant catch the boat filled with wedding bells. Im merely in my mid twenties and the fact that my Niece are itching to get married at a tender age of 21 was never my wish. Well, what can you say. 


*Jodoh di tangan Tuhan.*
