Oh yes, it is official, he is no longer my boyfriend.

We are engaged. Ha… 
A romantic trip to Banyan Tree Bintan, a surprise rain mist spa treatment and a candle night dinner on the beach….I cannot ask for more… Thank you my love, I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you.
The entrance of the villa to a small patio then another door to the villa.
Words cannot describe how much I appreciate the man for all that he has done to make our proposal so special. The staff at the resort were also very discreet.. They were coming up with all kinds of excuses to speak to the man in private.
First when we arrived for check in, the staff ask him for his credit card pin. I was like ‘huh?’ for a moment, but then I remembered that one of my credit card also requires a pin for certain transaction so I didn’t think much.
The gorgeous room and bed. I like! :)
Then when we are back in the villa, the phone kept ringing… And I thought it was suppose to be a private and discreet resort. Ha. Was a wee bit irritated… The man picked up all the calls diligently and when I asked him about it, he simply said they were trying to promote their spa and dinner packages. And I actually believed him. Ha.
Come to think about it, I was kind of dense not to realise it, but hey, all the better for the surprise to be successful.
View from the villa. Peaceful....
Spa for two... The furnishings are luxurious.
After chilling for a while, we decided to go for a walk around the resort. He called for a buggy and suggested to we go and check out the spa… We were brought to a spa villa instead of the main reception, I thought it was funny but perhaps it was how they do it there. Once inside the villa, the spa therapist came and greeted us with “Good afternoon Mr Lim, your spa treatment for today…..” That was when I turned and looked at the man smiling sheepishly. He had booked a package without my knowledge. Ha… Mission A successful.
I was quite famished after the treatment and decided to go for dinner…. Another buggy came to pick us up from the spa and I thought we were going to the resort restaurant. It was quite a long ride and before I knew it, I saw the hotel sign, which means that we are out of the resort… I looked at the man again and he had that mischievous look on his face… We drove across the golf course and arrive at the beach. That is when I realised that we are having dinner on the beach. There was a nice set up on the beach with a day bed and candle light and white sashes hanging from a frame, very romantic can. Ha. The waves were crashing on the beach and it was windy and all… Lovely! Misson B successful too!
Dinner by the beach. Was a very windy night with lots of stars in the sky
Heh, self portrait is a must...
And then of course, there is the all important Mission C.
Before dinner was served, the man gave me a present - a portable speaker. He plugged it into his iPhone and we played some music… The music playing throughout dinner were all my favourite songs, the sappy, romantic kind and those jazzy, smooth ones…. I was thinking that it was such a coincidence… Ha. Dense me…. He had prepared everything.
After a delicious dinner, he said he had one last surprise for me. Asked me to close my eyes and I felt him getting up from the day bed. I was thinking it must be a gigantic bouquet of flowers. He reappeared by my side and when I opened my eyes, he was standing there with a tray. (Elaine’s mind: More food?!)
Then he knelt down.
And everything became crystal clear.
There was a photo of us in a frame, a beautiful stalk of rose and THE box in a hollow frame.
He asked, I said yes.
And the rest, they say, is history.
Thank you my love. I am indeed blessed to have you.
Success! A sweet proposal by the beach under the stars.. I can't ask for more.
Closer look at the ring - princess cut stone and a milgrain ring...
Perfect fit. The man is good.
No longer alone in this big big world. :)

Just when you are thinking that I have shoved Proj Bear in to the deep end of the drawer……
Hey, I did sew over the past six days ya. Just have been on leave and since it was the long weekend, I didn’t blog.
And, I didn’t managed to upload the photos yet. But do not be disappointed with me, I shall amaze you with my progress and updates of the weekend activities soon.
Here’s a piece of news to share with all. This man has found the answer to -
If your wife/husband and son/mother fell into the river, who would you save first? From Yahoo! news.
NZ man caught by river rescue dilemma
WELLINGTON, New Zealand – As his wife floundered screaming for help in murky river water, a frantic New Zealand man was forced to abandon a bid to rescue his teenage son to save his partner from drowning, he said Monday.
Stacy Horton saved his wife, Vanessa, 35, as their son Silva, 13, drowned in the Whanganui River on North Island after her car plunged into the river late Saturday.
Horton said he arrived at the crash scene less than two minutes after the accident to hear his wife screaming in the darkness and to see his son’s friend and the family dog scrambling up the bank. His son Silva was trapped inside the submerged station wagon.
He tried to dive down to the vehicle, which was nose down but with the tail lights burning more than 3 feet (1 meter) below the surface, he told the Dominion Post newspaper.
“I tried to get down and get him but I couldn’t — it was just too deep. And Vanessa was going under,” Horton told the newspaper.
“I made a call to pull my wife to safety. I looked back and I could see the tail lights but it was too far and I couldn’t get him,” he said.
“Instead of going down and risking my life as well as my wife and son’s, I chose to take V(anessa) back and sat on the shore praying. It was all I could do,” a distraught Horton said.
Police and fire officers also were unable to rescue the boy from inside the vehicle.
Mid-Central police spokeswoman Kim Perks said Monday it was a very tough call for Horton. “I would certainly not have wanted to be in his shoes.”
Senior fire station officer Gary Wilson said the water was dark and murky and firefighters struggled in vain to reach the car.
“We tried everything but to no avail,” Wilson said.
Divers recovered the boy’s body on Sunday.

Look what I found from an old newspaper archive!
Goodness. Such MCP messages.
“Listen to him, let him talk first, his topics of conversations are more important than yours”
“You have no right to question him”
“Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.”
Hahaha… Seriously!
Well, but i do agree with certain points but not in entirety.
Like, Be happy to see him. And that’s it, I think.
Not every wife is a stepford wife okay?
I don’t think the modern man can live with a totally submissive wife either. Yes? No?
