On my way to my mum's place
He is shy in front of my parents therefore he look stern (no hugs allowed in front of parents)











Some of you must be puzzled on why is there a "will u marry me" on my dessert plate since my title of the blog is written our 3rd year anniversary.Stories goes like this, as asian man are kind of conservative with words like honey i love u, or go down on their knees to say will you marry me. And the most common way to ask partner to get married is by saying this " do you want to apply for a house together? My marriage started with this sentence, so once the house is approve and when u got it, u plan to get married, and so my man bypass the proposal steps. And this gestures and a must do proposal is haunting me for 3 years,and i ever did brought up to him that how is it like to have such a romantic proposal with a big big sigh. (after watching TV drama that actor propose to actress).Ladies tell me which woman doesn't wish to have a romantic proposal to rem for a lifetime or a story to tell their grandchildren ..

So on our 3rd year wedding anniversary my hubby Mr Ryan decided to come up with a surprise thumb drive (with his own singing of "Hey there delilah" with the lyrics and name changed), a sweet card while i was out with my colleagues for a Karaoke session in the afternoon. i kind of find him suspicious for doing so many romantic things in a day. So after we've finished our anniversary dinner, a "will you marry me dessert was served on my table, he suddenly go down on one knee with the ring asking me the perfect question "Precious, will you marry me?" and it was served with a bouquet of flowers brought out by the bistro staff. The staff video the whole scene down.Its so romantic that i almost broke into tears. So my story ended here. In the end i love my hubby forever and ever..hahaha

Hi babes, would like to share with you my happiness!!!! Yes finally i've got a Chanel jumbo in black caviar with GHW. i have been longing for it for the longest time and its my goal to get it either before turning 30 years old or by 30, A Hermes Birkin by the age 40. And tada finally i have my dream bag. Since i've stop buying all brands of bags these 3 years so i think i deserve something i love right? Hope u enjoy my post and felt happy for me..(i did plan to get a Birkin size 35 instead of the Chanel coz once u buy something with a higher value,u tends to find it more affordable to get a cheaper bag, but i just don't feel right for my hubby to get something that expensive especially when this is not the only purchase he got me within the same month- u will know why when i come up with the next post.)

What i believe is every girl should own a basic Chanel handbag (if u decided to just have the one and only Chanel- choose their classic design and go for the black and not the seasonal design and u are sure to know that it wont go out of date in the future). Chanel will never go on sale and the price will increase every half year or yearly(they just increase their price this Feb), its a bag that u can pass to your daughter in future, if u maintain it well, u will even get to sell it at the higher price (higher than what u bought). So does it make sense to invest in a good quality, bag with a value and something that will not go out of date instead of buying all the other brands that will go on sale every year. My next goal will be a Hermes Birkin before i reach 40, something that the value will increase every year.. hahaha.. I reason i tell my hubby- next time this bag of mine will go to your precious daughter

U can even share with me what u adore best and the reason why. Would really love to hear it from you guys.
