verse of the day



a day to remember...
Saturday, April 05, 2008 @ 11:59 pm

I've been eagerly anticipating for this day to arrive because it's our 5th year anniversary and our 'little' engagement with mutual exchange of our promise to each other :)

And so days before, I was already preparing for the 'event of the year' and asked MB what are his plans besides dinner at Prive. So he was all hushed up and kept all secretive and refusing to leak out any clues for me. Now I know why...

A surprise was awaiting for me at Mount Emily!

Little did I know that our cosy gathering of two would turn out to include my dearest girlfriends!

I was really, really touched because all of them came to celebrate our anniversary with us! I can only say "oh my gawd!!!!" a million times, and I couldn't contain my emotions and all the surprise I had from them.

And there was this:


Awwwww.... :') The masterpiece by the scrapbook junkies, Theresa, Lala and Hoi! And they actually stayed over at Theresa's to rush through it and only slept at 3am! Sooooo 感动!!!

They actually went to my Facebook, blog archives to download all our pictures and created the collage. Seriously, it was really really very sweet of them to do that. I'm so blissed :):):)

It was really the sweetest thing I can ever imagine happening to me and it did!

Earlier on, I was still self-reproaching for leaving our rings at home and forgot to bring it out. Then I prayed to God and ask Him to bless that we will have an enjoyable and unforgettable anniversary together. And He showed me His blessings once again. Amen!

Then I presented MB his anniversary present, which I've painstakingly made it over the past 1 month, burning some weekends and a small hole in my pocket for the materials :P


Memories of the wonderful times we had together, for MB to bring it over when he's in Aussie :) I made the cover page like yesterday? :P

MB complimented that it's my BEST artpiece so far! But i'm better in Photoshop than papers, scissors and glue!!!

After bidding farewell to my wonderful girls, we adjourned to Vivo to spend the idle time in between before dinner at Prive.

Been wanting to visit this little island of it's own at Keppel Bay, where luxurious condominiums and yachts overlook the Keppel Marina and the scenery at sunset was really awesome.


Prive owns the entire first level of Marina @ Keppel Bay, which has a al fresco gastrobar, deli bakery cafe and a high class New York style dining restaurant that is concealed from the outside.

We had dinner at their atas restaurant, with pricey ocean trout for him and fois gras stuffed chicken breast for me. It was TOO atas that I din dare bring out my camera to take coz it would have been kinda embarrasing :P

The food was absolutely delicious, but only go when you have special occassions or spare cash to spend :)

Then we stuffed ourselves silly at their bakery cafe, with champagne sourdough, mixed berry milkshake, camomile garden tea and tiramisu. MB is a bread-ish person so he kinda regret NOT eating at the bakery instead. :P


And then we took a stroll round the little island to nurse the bulge at the waist. The place was really really quiet and romantic.Albeit the lights were abit blinding, it was really nice taking in all the night view. Wished I had the monies to buy an apartment at the Caribbean or Reflections :P

It has been 5 years, and everyday has been so blissful, knowing that you will always be with me.


I, Nadyne Shu, take you, Eugene,
to be my partner, loving what I know of you,
and trusting what I do not yet know.
I eagerly anticipate the chance to grow together,
getting to know the man you will become,
and falling in love a little more everyday.
I promise to love and cherish you through
whatever life may bring us.

And the Lord be our witness to this testimony of our love
Amen.
