i kept thinking i didnt lose any weight at all cos i still look at the mirror and shake my head. my chubbyness is everywhere. but im so glad i was wrong!!!
went for my final fitting with jessica over the weekend and the first thing she said when she saw me was "omg! how come you look so thin! lost so much weight!" i thought she was just being her nice usual self, trying to make me feel better. or was it maybe cos she didnt see me for over a month.
but when i tried on my dress, i realised i actually DID lose weight! now the sides of my dress has to be tightened. the last leg of the race - maintain! no leeway for any weight gain. dress collection on 11 feb and no time to do anymore alteration.
the date is getting nearer...

the proposal (backdated)
my lovely surprise from him
kinda overdue, but better late than never! :)
251208 Christmas Day
Pan Pacific
was specially instructed by dar to meet him directly at pan pac that day. was kinda lamenting the fact i had to travel there all by myself. bleah!
he picked me up from the marina square. i almost got lost walking to pan pac from cityhall. *rolls eyes* anyway, he was wearing the biggest grin on his face. i knew something was up already by then. just didnt know what.
i was led up to room 1916. very nice room number! he suddenly covered my eyes from behind with his hands. i instantly went into autopilot mode and nearly elbowed him in the tummy! HELLO, squashed my pretty lashes with his hands lohhhhh. *LOL* he had to make do with me shutting my eyes while he led me into the room. didnt really trust me but he had no choice. hee!
we entered the room, and i smelt.... RUBBER. (eew)
he asked me "do you smell that?"
i said "yah, funny smell."
i didnt get to see the look on his face after i said that.
he positioned me somewhere in front of the bed. finally i was allowed to open my eyes. then, i dont know why, i suddenly chickened. i was afraid of seeing what was before me. not sure why. but to sum up the ten thousand thoughts going through my head, i was afraid i would let loose the tear ducts.
i opened my eyes to nothing i imagined. i took a few seconds to take everything in. amidst the shock, i still acted as per my usual self and all i could say was "orh." i was speechless.
i opened my eyes to this.





tons of balloons! hence the rubber smell.
apparently this was what i was supposed to smell - the rose petals. =.=


a great view from our balcony.
he knelt down and presented me with this.
even said the words "will you marry me?" *melts*
overflowing with saga seeds... hidden inside was...
i had to say yes...
after that i took my own sweet time to admire his efforts, and take in everything in detail. indeed, it was lots of sweat and blood put into this lovely surprise for me.
my very own solitaire from him!
specially done up in purple and red rose petals, just cos i love purple!


a clearer look of the wordings. so prettyyyy!
and then i realised, every single one of those 100 balloons had words specially printed on them. "MARRY ME NIKKY" *sighs*
loves.



a found a particular rose that looked weird. haha!
closer look at his bottleful of sweat and blood. literally.
so cute!


secret recipe by my boy. 我是幸福的.
overflowing with saga seeds he painfully picked in the hot sun.
i agree.

spent the rest of the afternoon lazing around and giving him lotsa TLC, hugs and kisses. he was so tired from making all the arrangements since early in the morning! watched 'Yes Man' at GV marina square later on. my darling was so tired he actually fell asleep in the cinema. hehe.
bought dinner back to the hotel and watched HBO all night.




and it was time to clear the lovely petals. if not where to sleep!
we had fun rolling around in sweet smelling petals.
100 balloons in my hand. 幸福!

by night time, the balloons started losing helium and floated down one after another.
還真的是短暫的美麗.
complimentary gingerbreadman from pan pac.
our beautiful night view.

losing time
ive been so busy with preparations that ive totally no time at all to update. there never seems to be an end to the list of stuff to do. hopefully everything will turn out fine.
my wonderful pink and brown theme doesnt really seem to be working out. so no more pink and brown. just whatever colours that work.
finally got down to speaking with my florist at red petals. i seriously hope michelle, my florist, is able to come up with the kind of 'ring pillow' i have in mind. ive been told my expectations are too high. well, can you blame me?! its my once in a lifetime! though i'll still have my customary in a few years time. its different! this is the official business, the signing away half your life to someone else! i cant help wanting it to be perfectly perfect.
well, i was told i should enjoy the process. so enjoy i will!
final fitting at olive suites this saturday! looking forward :)
