Engaged

Just wanted to share this special moment with my readers :-) I'm one of those people who thought that this would never happen to me, especially after turning 30 and going through a few relationships. But I guess life has its way of surprising you when you least expect it and sometimes you turn a corner, and there he is.


So it was like just any other normal weekend and after we watched Ghost of Girlfriends Past at Vivocity, we just walked into the Soo Kee store and picked out this Brilliant Rose diamond together.

    Even though I have only seen your boyfriend once, I can see that he is a great guy. =) I mean which guy on this planet wants to venture to a warehouse sale with his girlfriend?

    Ok, my hb actually went to mango sales with me, so he is one of the rarest few ;)

  45. Thank you so much, everyone, for the good wishes and kind comments! To those regular readers who have taken the time to leave a comment for the first time, I'm very honoured that my little blog is on your reading list and I hope you continue to find it helpful and informative!

    To those readers who haven't found that special someone yet, I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of you. I know what it's like to go through years of being single, watching my peers settle down and start popping kids, while I'm still falling asleep watching tv alone night after night after bingeing on yet another bag of Ruffles chips. I'm incredibly lucky that he found me and asked me out (we used to work in the same department) last February. I couldn't ask for a sweeter, more loving boyfriend. If it can happen to me, I believe it can happen to anyone.
