...so where were we?
Yea.
Right after the whole engagement "ceremony" and a few bowls of my favourite kacang pol *drools*, the four of us decided to drive down to Singapore for a little while. You know, just to jalan-jalan. Well, let them celebrate their engagement and hello! It was towards the end of the day and Azrin and I havn't even had our 10-year anniversary kiss yet.
So let's just relax our minds..
We shall ignore the traffic at immigration. Haha.
Got so Singy and I dropped by my uncle's house for a while. Took a couple of pictures to make Daddy jealous.
After, Sofia, Azrin and I went for dinner. She brought us to this amazing naan place, where they have all sorts of naans and tosai. So yummy.
Delicious.
Met up with Ashraf and Belle back in the city, jalan-jalan with them for a little bit, dropped Sofia back and head back to JB.
*ignore the chaos at the immigration even though it was 3am*
Everytime I do this "head to Singapore for a little while", I will ask myself the same thing- why did not just sleep in Singapore?
Haih.
Azrin told me that his brother called him with mixed emotions to say "Ajin,can you come to JB to meet Belle's family?"
Of course. We would love to!
After much discussing, what was supposed to be our quiet anniversary day in, was the day Ashraf asked us to come down to JB. We packed our passports (because Singapore is just a snorkel away, haha!) and drove down early in the morning.
As we were reaching JB, got a "can you get a ring for me please" text from Ashraf.
What.
Me : Ash, did you not tell us something? Is there going to be a ceremony?
Ashraf : No no
Me : You sure? I'm in a short dress!
Ashraf : Yes
Me : Are you going to propose?
Ashraf : Ya
Azrin and I looked at each other. We have less than an hour to look for a ring. An engagement ring. In a state we are not familiar with. Not a way we imagined to spend our anniversary. We were walking in and out of ring shops and until we got one for him.
"B, the irony, we going in and out, surrounded by gold and diamonds everywhere, we've been together for ten years, you did buy something but just not for me. Such a sweet husband I have"
I could see smoke coming out of his ears. Haha.
As we were walking out, I told Azrin that it would not be nice to come empty handed especially if Ashraf is going to propose (however way he wants to do it), so we spent a little more time looking for some cookies and cakes. Off we go.
We reached Belle's house with her mom there. We talked but Belle was in the room.
In my head : Wait a minute, is this the traditional way?
When Ashraf was talking about proposing, Belle's mom was hinting to do it the proper way. I looked around, and I was the only woman from Ashraf's side.
Crap.
I took the red ring box. What do I say? What do I say?
...oh well, I did it. I think. They're engaged! I think. Err, Belle's mom accepted the ring, and it is on Belle's finger now so yeah, they're engaged!
*bows*
Congratulations Ashraf and Belle!
I am ready to have a son. Haha.
Azrin and I had to release the nerves, we went to enjoy some JB must-haves after.
*licks finger and bowl*
...and yes, Azrin gained 3kgs when we got back to KL.
Ok, I'll blog about our Singapore trip next!
Last week, Azrin and I turned 10 years.
All together- Woooaaahh.
My biggest achievement in this relationship is getting Azrin to gain 20kgs..and counting. He is now at the point where he is super concerned about his weight, yes because he's brother said "I don't want to be fat like Ajin"
Oh I can't stop laughing.
Anyway, we didn't get to do anything much (read: holiday) since I am still under probation so it would not be nice to take a long long leave, right?
10 years. I never thought I could last this long with a boy. Give and take is very important. Well, he said he have to do more giving because I'm a brat *rolls eyes*, but yes, we did start off like a roller coaster. Gaduh everyday, "break up" every week, scream at each other non stop but as we get older.....maybe we have no energy to fight anymore. Haha!
For some people it might be "just 10 years" but for it is definitely a something for us. We were there for each other through graduation, when my mom passed away, all the family issues, medical issues, supported each other's careers. Then came getting married and living together, saving money to travel and buying a house. Laugh, cry, everything together.
...and its already a whole decade.
I don't think I will spend it with anyone else. Maybe I should start expressing it more to him now.
Maybe.
Happy Anniversary!
Sarah popped out a little girl for a while now but since I've been sick and I did not want to spread my germs to her and little baby so I had to wait for a couple of weeks till I get to visit her daughter.
Felt better last week and what better way to spend my new year than to visit baby Ilyana Omeira!
Bite her cheeks.
It is scary that she looks exactly like Sarah. Like 100%.
Azrin and I bought her first few pink clothes of course. Will get her first pair of heels soon *flips hair*
While Sarah and I were chatting away, Azrin was just next to the baby lecturing away.
"Baby girl, when you grow up nanti, don't be so wild like how your mom and Aunty Shepie were last time tau. Be nice k...but then again, I don't think we all would be worry because your daddy would hambat you with a broom if you even think about doing something you're not suppose to. Faham tak? Good. Tapi kan, you're a girl. If you want to get something, just use your charm. Your "Daddy's girl" charm. Sure your Daddy cair"
Hmm.
Congratulations Rais and Sarah!!
