I Do. I Do.

I am in London right now. Just sent Nic off at High Street Kensington tube station.

*mixed feelings* sad and happy...

So many things happened in the span of two weeks.

Was stressing out about going for a holiday in Greece with Nic. Had quite an adventure being in a foreign country, trying to adapt to the freaky cold weather, trying not to go crazy with each other's living habits, trying to stay sane with long hour flights and transits in between. A memorable one.

Rushed back to KL to attend Chee Eng's wedding. Managed to change for extra off days to stay on (otherwise I would've gone crazy with jetlags and different weather conditions). Rushed back to Singapore for work. Left for London with a heavy heart cause my holiday ended and Nic was back in Malaysia, which felt so far away.

Little did I know, when I reached London, Nic was here too. Scheming with a whole bunch of people to surprise me. He sent me a package with 'our' book in it. Wrote a little note that made me cry buckets cause I missed him so much. Then I almost choked on my tears when I saw "get changed and meet me downstairs..." *OMG* I was stunned, panic, excited, not sure what I was feeling at the moment. Called him, but he refused to answer my call. Texted him "Bb where are u?" and received a reply "waiting for you..."

I was so blur after a long long flight, I almost contemplated to take a shower before I actually knew what was happening. I hurriedly changed and went down to the lobby looking less than gorgeous. I was so 'kan cheong' in the lift, didn't quite know how to respond or what else to expect.

Lift door opened. Nic was standing in the lobby. He saw me, shouted for someone to start recording, and presented me with flowers. 3 bouquets. White, red, pink roses. I gave him a big hug, started crying and he got down on one knee. *OMG* I couldn't believe it. He started talking about our Greece trip, a whole lot of other things, (I don't think I could remember every word cause I was super dazed) then he said something about finding our 15 degrees, and asked me to marry him. *melted into a pile of butter*

Never ever expected that I would see him overseas when I'm at work, yet alone London. I always said 'wish he was here', and this time, it came true. How sweet can that be? I truly love him and the crazy things he does for me.

Thank you sayang. I miss you already.

Thank you Mary and Jerry for helping him plan such a sweet surprise. I will never ever forget :)
