As you've guessed from the title... Yes!! The boyfriend proposed!!!
It's been 3 days, and I still can't believe and accept the fact, and that I am going to get married soon.
It's all happening way too fast! (When he haven't proposed, I kept thinking why he so slow one.. I'm waiting and going crazy liao... Then when he proposed, I just wish time could slow downnnnnn.. Contradicting eh? oh wells....)
So.... The boyfriend proposed on 24th November 2013, 3am at W hotel Sentosa Cove.
(Beware.. It's gonna be a damn wordy post, as now I still can remember everything so vividly... I better document it down, so I can re-read again in the future. Or perhaps he can read also.. Cause I am 101% sure he will somehow forget bits and pieces of it...)
It wasn't a planned proposal at all, he didn't spent months or weeks or even days planning for this... It all happened in that short few hours~! :D
Our thoughts of going W hotel is because his work friend, Shawn, had booked a room there with his family for a 1-day staycation. And, he invited us over. At first, we didn't want to go as #1: I'm shy, and #2: He's tired from work. But after much consideration and all, we decided to go as he always wanted to bring me to meet his friends.
Btw, it's my first time ever meeting his work friend- Shawn and Shane, and their wives and child!
We went down to W hotel together at 8pm, as both boyfriend and Shawn went to their friend's(Brandon) house-warming earlier on.
We reached, explored the area and room...
We didn't have the thought of booking a room at all, we just wanted to go chill and chat with his friends, and later help Shawn to drive the car back. ^^
The guys went down to the lobby(as Shane had booked a room on the spot too~) and to smoke as well, and the ladies just stayed in the room to relax...
[I seriously don't know how he got psycho-ed to book a room. Also don't know who instigate it one sia..]
We ladies were still discussing if Yikai(my boyf.) will book a room anot. And, I still can confidently tell them he won't get psycho so easily one...
When the guys are back, his friend's words really surprised me 'Yikai also booked a room in the end...'
WOW?!!! I was so surprised yet happy that I kept asking him, 'really meh? I thought you won't booked leh. Why waste money?? etc etc'
Shortly after, the guys went out to packet supper back. They mentioned that they wanna go to bedok 85 to packet the ba chor mee. As Christy(who's pregnant wanted ba chor mee).. Ok, at the moment I'm like wahh lao, go until 85 packet supper then like that we can go home also.. Better than spending that money to stay 1 night. The guys left to packet supper and to buy some alcohol....
<I didn't think much or feel there's anything not right at the moment>
Then, text him, and he said he's at 85.. Initially, I wanted to test him if he will auto go back home to take my facial wash for me anot, since he is so near home!!!(I doubt he will la, he is those that can don't bother jiu don't bother one) But... knowing the character of my boyfriend. I make sure I told him to go back home and take my facial cleanser and moisturizer for me, as I feel if I don't use I will have terrible breakouts the next day.
<Didn't even thought that he did take the ring too!!!!!! Like, seriously?!!!>
Then they are back with supper and drinks..!
We ate, chilled, talked at the balcony until close to 2am... And headed back to our room.
Bathed, and wanted to go sleep already.. as it's already so late...
(It's indeed a very atas hotel, even their toiletries using Bliss! Heard from Jennis it's quite ex, retailing at Sephora. Toilet is super huge! A bathtub, separate toilet and shower area. Been so MBS hotel before, I think it is comparable, but the toiletries I would say W hotel wins!)
Lay on bed, watched tv for a bit...
Then he randomly asked me: So, how u find this place?
I replied: Ok ah.. Not too bad. Classy.
He said: Then how if I proposed now?
I replied: Errr........... Ok lor, memorable lor. It's at Sentosa Cove leh, both our first time here... It's like we will not come back ever again to stay de lor... Somemore such an atas hotel, then tomorrow wake up got beautiful view... Like not bad leh. Cool.. I continue saying: You will propose now meh?! You where got the ring??!
Then he took his ring(our couple ring which we are wearing now), and put it onto my fourth finger.
I ji tao... haiyo~ hahahahaa
Then he hug me and kept looking into my eyes like for very longg lor. (which is not the usual him! Normally also don't bother to stare into my eyes for longgg one!)
So, I asked him: Why you keep looking to my eyes? something is not right. You normally also won't even bother looking into my eyes like that at all!
Then he said: Why? Cannot ah? I just want to look at you mah.
The next moment.....
He popped the question: Will you marry me?
-I was shocked and stunned- But still thought he's joking or like he's practicing his proposal speech for next time. hahaha!
Then he asked again: Will you marry me?
I replied: Yes. (Quickly turned to him, gave me a kiss...)
Then he took out the (real) proposal ring, I gave him my hands, then he slipped the ring in!
So, we are officially fiancee and fiance! :D
It really caught me by surprise as I really didn't thought he would have went back and took the ring, and proposed on this date. Never ever crossed my mind, and I didn't find anything fishy/suspicious at all~
Great job!
I did asked him how come he will propose to me so sudden leh? haha
Then he told me, his friends helped him to plan and all...
And actually, he didn't booked the room yet, just reserve first, then he came back to say he booked a room and see what's my reaction. Then he mentioned, when he saw that I'm so happy and surprised, then at that point then he go and booked the room. OMG! Like wth?!! Earlier know, I act angry and sad cause he anyhow waste money! haha! (But, which normal girl won't feel happy/excited/over the moon when the man had already booked a room on the spot sia.)
&they purposely go 85 to packet supper, just so he can go back and take the ring. HAHAHA! Aiyo, trouble them .. So pai seh..
Then he told me, actually he wanted to propose when his friends are around de(when we are all chilling and eating at the balcony). His friend Shawn did hint a few times to him to faster take out the ring to propose, like playing love songs etc... Then again, he dropped the idea, cause #1: I will be very pai seh, and #2: all his friends didn't propose to their wives, so not a good idea to propose in front of them. haha! Phew~
Even with those small little actions/hints, I still didn't thought so much and didn't even expected anything.
Oh wells...
Luckily, it's over and I'm happy that we are finally having a new chapter to our 8 longg years of dating... :D I am now 'Half a Mrs Fong' now. HAHAHA!
8 years of dating have brought us to another status of fiance/fiancee. More things to settle and plan, more liability.
With you, I believe we can walk through everything together.
So.. both of us just have to sleep in the robe for the night. LOL!
Woke up the next morning for breakfast together with everyone...& The moment I got up from bed, the first thing I do is to draw open the curtain to such a beautiful view! So serene.
(To be continued... with pics of my proposal ring, as this post is getting a tad too lengthy)
