The Proposal <3

He kept rushing me home. I DONT KNOW FOR WHAT. The convo went like this:

Twitter: I can’t seem to get evonnz home nowadays.
Me: What’s home?
Him: A surprise for you at home dear
Me: !??!
Him: Btw the surprise will die if you don’t reach home by 8.
Me: What the hell is that!?
Him: Live fow gua. *plucks*

That really made me laugh out loud!

Anyway i reached home at like, 7.35.
And an envelope was almost camouflaged on my table cos they were of the same color. I nearly missed this hilarious drawing!

Envelope 1 Letter 1

Okay ugly heart shape.

So i went to look under the bed.

Another envelope with 3 letters.

Apparently this is how he thinks i would look like looking for things under the bed. HAHAHAHAHA! But HELLO!

And a surprise blue rose…!

He scripted me to say No. So i said no lor!

Hahahaha. Then I called him and asked him what’s next. So he directed me to a website which was done by him, no less. *Grins* Quite expected from a web programmer. Now he has to keep this website alive for the rest of his life. LOL.

And it says…

(view at http://willyoumarrya.fireman.sg/) yes its a real site. and he hid the url by shortening it, so i only saw the whole url as it loaded. Hahahaha.

So it says that there’s supposedly 21 red roses and another blue rose next door.

*goes next door*

I tried the front door and i couldn’t get it! So i tried going through the connecting bathroom. First i see… Dead flowers. WHAT 21 RED ROSES!?!??!?!

Then something made me break into laughter!

LOL. If you read the borntobeyour taoeh blog, you would have known that he’s caused an hilarious uproar by using the pager codes of the past. And I couldn’t stop laughing when i saw this! Called him and asked: “Eh where is the yong bu fen li?” Hahahahaha. No wonder he was asking me what’s “520″ etc.

There was another blue rose on the floor, forming the “4″ and also another envelope at the bottom of the “4″.

You see you see. I was scripted to say NO again. So he asked again over the phone and I said NO!

He was outside the house after I changed.

Then he dragged me to an “atas” restaurant which was Bistro Petit Salut, at Chip Bee Gardens. “Dragged” cos he initially told me we were gonna go eat crabs. THEN HE CHANGED PLANS. And told me we’re going to some “atas” restaurant to eat. AND I REFUSED! lol I think I gave him a hard time cos I didn’t wanna waste money on “atas” food. -_-”

Him, dejected.

I ordered my meal without smelling a rat. I told him to try again with a ring, hahahaha.

(Imagine i inserted random pics of my starter and his escargots, which was obviously the nicer choice.)

(Then we had our mains. Which was equally not as nice to me cos I dont really fancy atas food.)

Throughout the meal he kept asking “Huh dear really must need ring ah. Really ah. No ring can or not”. And at some point I actually said yes cos COME ON before this proposal he already knows I’m gonna be his what! So after the mains….

He popped out a neatly wrapped present (“I paid $2 for it OKAY!”) which according to him, is “something you (me) want, but i got no ring for you.” it turned out to be…..

An Apple Magic Mouse.

I was supposed to say No again. So I said NO lah!

He tweeted: “ITS NOT MAGICAL AT ALL I WANT MY MONEY BACK”

(Honestly I didnt care if there was a ring TODAY or not! I kept saying okay la when i saw his dejected face, but he kept asking me to say No!)

Then we had dessert and I thought it was done and over with. Can go home sleep liao I was soooo happy.

Oh the strawberry dessert was quite nice so I’m including a picture of it.

So he kept saying that he has no more presents, (even before the magic mouse!) and went to the toilet.

Him: Oh dear look there’s a lady gg into the toilet. I shall go steal her ring. But seriously dear no more surprises liao.

And when he came back, he started narrating his day to me, about how he went to get all the stuff and cardboard from Popular but in the end he decided not to stick the petals blablabla… How he got drenched, got dry, and then perspired till he looked like he was drenched again and all.

And then he said he got me something from Popular.

Fishy.

And out came another bag inside the plastic bag…

!!!!!! I just went into BVLGARI THAT VERY DAY LOR.

He took out a blue rose.

AND THEN HE KNELT DOWN AND PROPOSED.

Omg I had tears in my eyes. But I didn’t cry lah.

After clearing some confusion (as per below), he slipped zee ring on my finger. It fitted perfectly. He’s good.

Me: er Dear which one ah
Him: *says left hand in chinese*
Me: what is that?! (I 左右不分)
Him: LEFT LAH!
Me: Orh *gives left hand*

Finally allowed to say YES! And i’m a happy girl. : D ~

His proposal stuff. He very comically threw me the envelope of taka vouchers and lucky draw coupons back at home and told me: “Nah dear, lucky draw tickets to our new Lexus.” Hahahahhaha!

That sneaky fella. No wonder he asked me and friends about the Taka Card points system etc and went to register for it.

Best conversation after the whole proposal…..

Me: Eh dear. Why so early propose one. I expected it but not so early!
Him: Oh. Cos the roses came early.

Anyway.

Just to clarify.
1. Yes we’ve only dated for 6 months.
2. But i’m very sure.
3. My parents have no objections,
4. And i’m not pregnant!

So there! I’m engaged. We’re engaged.

I’ve never clicked with anyone on such a level before. I normally don’t say such stuff, but I honestly, really think that we’ll be a very happily married couple, come what may. I’m grateful, for his love, his understanding, his patience and of course our peace loving nature.

Thanks to everyone who has helped him in some way or another.
Chufang for getting the mouse, Pris for sneakily asking me about the ring, and MZ for finding out the price of the ring for him.

Thank you Dear! I LOVE YOU!

Don’t worry, I’ll be very, very happy for a very, very long time. : D~ Of that I’m sure.

We’re Engaged!

The sheep proposed today. : D ~

It was a super hilarious affair, especially with all the cock-ups LOL.

No dates yet, but i’m very happy with this one, engaged or not, ring or not. = D~

I love you dear!!!!!!

And thanks everyone for the well-wishes! The entire episode and the pics another day. : )

Visee Palettes (Kose)

If im not wrong they’re about 1050Yen? Bought them in Tokyo… At my fave Donquijote and some Matsumoto drugstore along Nakano.

L-R: A-5 Blue Palette, A-4 Green Palette, B-3 Black/Grey Palette

A-5 Blue Palette.
^ The white seems to be a creamy eyeshadow.
The other 3 colors are shimmery powder eye shadows, the lightest blue has very fne light blue glitter inside, while the mid shade blue looks more purplish and has dark glitter. The darkest blue has blue and pink glitters.

A-4 Green Palette.
^ Like the blue palette, the white seems to be a creamy eyeshadow.
Rest are all powder! Have yet to try this on my eyes, maybe i’ll do that later today.
As compared to the blue it seems less glittery, but they remain shimmer and only the darkest green shade has gold flecks/glitter in it.

B-3.
This shadow is slightly different, the entire set is very bright except for the black shadow (replacing the white cream ones in the 2 previous shadows) and it’s matte black. The white is a powdery one, with white flecks/glitter, followed by the grey and darker grey shade. I love this!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Wished I bought more!!!!! But I only have two eyes. So. Oh well. *aims to get Snow Miku Nendoroid instead*

Latest Project: Barter Maison

Barter Maison.

A trading company.

This is the final decision, burgundy red for their corporate color:

Before that, the red I chose was a little too pink, hence I did up several colors for selection. I thought it looked really cute! See:

Click for larger views! : )

Nail Happy!

Met up with lovely Melva from Nail Vibe for lunch, and she passed me the polishes i’ve ordered from her.

L-R:
China Glaze Ruby Pumps, OPI Midnight Ride, CG Fairy Dust, CG C-c-courage, OPI Otherwise Engaged, Seche Quick Dry Base Coat, OPI Pink in hearts II. Got the Avoplex cuticle oil too and passed it to Mum.

(She let me try out Ruby Pumps, and it’s uber chio and sparkly a red… unfortunately i’m not a fan of bright reds. This bottle’s for Pris.)

Here’s a fast swatch of my orders:

Fairy Dust, Fairy Dust over Otherwise Engaged, C-c-courage.

Fairy dust is one of the most gorgeous colors i’ve ever seen. As a topcoat. No huge shiny glitters/flakes, but attention grabbing enough. I couldn’t stop admiring my nails after I applied it once. I love using it over shades I’ve grown tired of. Reflects green, blue, red… as per pic above! Well i think the BB’s image quality isn’t as good as the LX3 but it sure captured it well here.

C-c-c-ourage looks absolutely stunning. It was a rich shade of purple which wasn’t too light for my liking, and full of shimmer! Love! Only thing is that when it dries it seems to feel a little semi matte to me. Neverthemind though, just apply top coat, and all’s shiny and dandy.

Seche’s base coat works really fast.

I have Otherwise Engaged on my nails now, and they look very sweet. And unique. As Scrangie describes it, there’s a “blue flash” in it and it shows when you tilt your fingernails in different angles. Very lovely shade. Sheer, but 2 coats will give you better coverage. If you’re going french with this, 3 coats will do the trick nicely! : D

New Hair Color

Well, I loved my blue hair, but only the dark color rather than the faded blue. It fades really fast. And it was time to get rid of the blue, as it was making me look old > : | Plus the mum (and April) was nagging at me to change color.

I wanted to go back to japanese girl brown. BUT! Errr… Because my hair was bleached here and there…. it wasn’ easy to solve so things took a different turn after 3 stylists had a meeting behind my back.

They decided on purple for the front, i insisted on brown for the middle and we settled for red at the back *heh* Couldn’t resist doing it for the new year and to match my cheongsam.

Red at the back. Taken with my BB so it looks really pink instead. -_-.

Tadah! The purple was too dark so it doesn’t really show, most likely be brighter after a few washes.

Oh yeah i got bangs too.

Quite happy with the service, they really really had a looooooooong meeting discussing how to do my hair cos there were just so many colors and weird problems (prev dye job, prev prev dye job etc).

Kudos to Dickson & Priscillia from Chapter 2 Plaza Sing! <3

RWS: Hard Rock Hotel

Short pic review.

Took the bus in, once you alight, there’s only one way in and this is what greets you. ($2, use your ezlink card!)

Finding our way to Hard Rock Hotel….

Tunnel all the way through and you will see this when you exit Festive Grand Hotel~

To the room – Nicely deco-ed out in purple. Very cosy color!

The awesome Simmons bed. Wah best bed ever. Comfy like mad. <3
If you're holding a party, be glad to know that there's a day bed (the pic above this), the king sized bed and a pull out bed below!

Vanity area. Awesome mirror!

Very next morning, took a pic of the lovely pool. NICELY DESIGNED!!!! You see an area with lighter blue? That’s the part of the pool with sand – nice touch, but makes the pool look dirty – It isn’t really dirty la though. Jaccuzi area in the middle. Beach volleyball court at the side.

Breakfast! Erm I gotta say, it isn’t really all that fantastic. A friend working in HRH said they’ll improve the food and services bit by bit – there wasn’t even room service. : /

VS! The shop is really, really small though. Smaller than the hotel room i got : / Stuff there’s really exp. Prob cheaper and easier to hit the website and do online shopping.

The best purchase from VS ever. Most wu hua lah!! At 50SGD i got a lot of colors (didnt bother to count) for eyeshadows and lips, mini everything – mascara, lip liner, eyeliner, blush, foundation and brushes! (check out the full review over here at makeupforlife)

The lip glosses at the side were 13SGD each. I saw 7 on the price tag and i thought it was 7SGD but it was really 7 USD. -_-….

Lift was damn chio and bright – gave me a lil of a headache but it’s gorgeous.

Parents/bro and gf came over the next day to take over the room : D~

Yang and i ; )

If you’re thinking of staying there, festive rates are 275 till CNY I think. Got my room from www.asiatravel.com. Rates will resume 450 after all attractions open if i’m not wrong (yes i went there when nothing was open!)

If you are really gonna stay there, and you don’t have a car…. Please, buy some food over. I was hungry, and the nearest 7-11 was at Hotel Michael and it’s not 7-11, it’s 9-9. -_-”

All in all, I had a nice stay over there but i think it’ll rock more if the attractions were opened! Then again the hotel prices will rise and I think it would be simply too much to pay that price when we live pretty near Sentosa anyway.

Japan ‘09/’10 – Osaka

Osaka Photolog. Actually most are already in my FB, and you’ve probably seen them if you’re in my FB.

Freaking pic intensive post.

View from plane, arriving in Narita Airport.

Transiting to Osaka…

Warfare Planning. No la just finding out way out of the station to the hotel. Transiting and changing trains were a torture and pain in the ass cos of the huge luggages we were lugging : (

Having late late late dinner. 三菜一湯！

Couldn’t resist when i saw that huge bottle of Mayo. Yang doing a Hijikata-san from Gintama!

Gigglos in Osaka.

Toyoko Inn, Osaka. Much better than the shitty hotel we stayed in Tokyo!

Us!

Ippudo for lunch. Nice!

Some random girl i approached for directions. She was smoking and riding a bicycle. Okay fine she stopped to smoke and was still on the bicycle.

Fujifilm Instax Mania

Ever since i hauled 3 boxes (of 10’s) of films back from Japan, I’ve kindda been snapping too much. So…. a little pic post.

Veron, Francis, The sheep & I with chopper’s hat hauled back from .co.jp.
(I’ve just very recently picked up One Piece, after the movie in .co.jp. Much to my annoyance some books are missing so I’m waiting for Kino’s 20% off to haul the comics back.)

Noel & Adrina from Looque : )

And before i get filled with questions, i bought my lao pok Fujifilm Instax 7S (They are not Polaroids – though they work in the same way and have been commonly called the wrong name – even by me) from Japan during my previous previous trip there, for like 3980 yen. Cheap eh? The newer, slightly smaller (really only slightly) 25S costs about 8950 yen? The Hello Kitty one with just one small little kitty on top of the cam costs like 9850 yen. Phwoar. Kitty power.

The films are about 12.90 in SG, and you can find them easily online going for $11 ~ onwards for plain ones, and 17.90 (retail store) for cartoon ones. Just google for them or find them on ebay. Easy peasy search.
