10.09.10 the day i said "yes"

i'm back! finally.

looking back, it's already more than a month since the 10th Sept 2010.

the 10th Sept 2010 was a day where keeliang and myself looked forward to! for its a friday without needing to go to work-Hari Raya. DOUBLE TGIF!

Well, the more special reason was it was a day that keeliang pulsated and was super nervous for the entire day!

as usual, we went shopping. keeliang took a snapshot of me shopping. something that i didnt suspect nor think otherwise. so i just went along the flow and posed. :)



Little did i know that he had a motive! he watsapped this pic to his accomplices...

keeliang and i watched a movie afterwards at Marinasquare. think the show was resident evil 4. terrible show. super duper waste of time. -- the reason we went to watch? cause DANIEL said it was going to be a FANtastic show. YAWNS.....

afterwhich, we went to a japanese restuarant for a buffet dinner. was super filling. not too bad, just that there were only 2 waitresses in the entire restaurant! i think it's going to close down soon...

keeliang kept on heading for the gents at this point. he said he took laxatives the night earlier to *detox*. and it was giving him bad runs. i, innocently, as always, took that for real. :P

we took the Spore flyer after dinner. i was shocked at keeliang's generosity to treat me for a ride for no apparent reason. :) Still to be honest, i really didnt suspect a single thing.... i guess the thin air up there made me think a little slower...

Somewhere up in the air then, i asked:

Karen: "so what are we going to do after the ride?"
Keeliang: "Hmmm... my stomach really very uncomfortable, lets just take a cab home."
i touched his tummy and felt "grook grook" grumbles. (little did i know it was cos he was hungry cos he was running to the gents the whole time!)

Karen: "wah, your tummy ache like really very jialat ah. ok, lets go home straight after the ride"

At ground level, keeliang told me to sit at this podium stage thingy while he ran off to the loo.. again...

i took out my iphone to play bejeweled.. then, a roller-blader came up to me, passing me a pink rose, "congrats, this is for you!" and bladed off.

puzzled and confused, i looked ard for keeliang, but he's not ard! i felt paiseh holding the rose alone! how pariah!

then the 2nd , 3rd, 4th rose came.... 5th... 10th... 20th... 24th....

Finally, i saw keeliang walking over w this SUPER big bouquet of pink roses.

i knew the moment was it. there and then.

the usual, the kneeling, the blushing, the speech! and then the RING!



and yes, i said yes. :)

congrats to all who had helped/brainstormed. it was a success. i did not suspect a single bit...

well, to daniel who hid in the toilet the whole time with the big bouquet...

THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT SPECIAL FOR ME!

I've always thought how would the special day be for myself.. i've always daydreamt of spectacular sights and wonders... and indeed, when it's the real moment for myself, i'm glad everything turned out just the way it did!

MUACKS!! :)
