We had never ever done so much things within such a short period.. What really surprised me is, on X'mas eve, he gave me a really huge surprise!! He sent me a big bouquet of roses to my office. It really make my day. When Jenny came in with the flowers and passed em to me, I was damn shocked and keep asking her is that really for me? It causes some commotion in the office and I was blushing when I took the flowers from her.
After getting the flowers, I cant help smiling to myself and was really happy and surprised by his gesture. I have never ever tot he would get me flowers and get em sent to my workplace.. :) It was really sweet of him.. I can still rem, the first rose I received from him was on the same day a year back.. There was a card attached to it but I did not realised until he called me when he woke up, trying to sound me out whether sth 'special' happened at work today or not? I lied to him saying I received flowers from someone but there wasnt anything to show who sent me those flowers.. ( I knew the flowers was from him because the receipt showed his hp no. )
I read the card after some search and saw his msg.. Well, the sotong me could not understand the chim meaning until Maurice told me that the huge red rose in the centre is fake one.. There are 12 roses in total, 11 pink and 1 big red one.. I finally got his meaning!!! hehe
I came home after having lunch with my colleagues, feeling damn tired but cant take a nap cause need to do final touch-up for the gift I am giving him that night.. Tot he will be ending ard 10 but ard 7 plus he told me he can go off le.. OMG, i haven even go n get my wine, I haven even
finished the touching up.. ;p Had to rush n rush and make him wait for me for 2 hours in the office!! Felt really bad about it....
We went to Central for dinner and took a walk along the river.. It was really crowded..
I was deciding to go to either Sentosa or Mt Faber for countdown cause its easier to surprise him with the gifts i placed in the car boot.. :) We went to the park near One Fullerton, the place where everything began.. hehe.. Ard 1130, we left for Sentosa.. We had out countdown in the car, the first possession we own together.. Its quite signigicant also..
We went to Tanjong Beach and its time to unveil the surprises.. Hehe.. I told him to go and open the car boot and he was quite surprised to see what I had prepared.. We look throught the album together.. The album of our memories.. :) Then I took out the wine which i had prepared in the ice box and we sat along the beach with our mat.. The sky is pretty clear and we could see lotsa stars when we lied down, sipping our wine.. It was really a nice and cool X'mas..

25th Dec (X'mas Day)
We slp until the noon as usual and fetched his sis to Orchard b4 heading to Great World for lunch.. Right after lunch, we went back to his place to get his Grad robe to prepare for the theme for tonights' Paranormal X'mas at the legendary Ivory Heights aka Shu's place.. Decided to dress up as Harry Potter.. Really no time to prepare for the party..
Right after that, we went to JP.. It was really crowded but luckily the place we intend to go was quite ok.. Our motive to go there is for the DIY deco cake.. We wanted to get the log cake and deco it for tonights' party but they dun have it anymore.. In e end, we got the normal one.. Well, I really pity the cake cause I think we really make a mess.. haha.. But it was really fun..
The cake & Us...I went to shu's place at 7, Jackson & Joanne were there with their costume on.. Dear was abit shocked when he saw em.. haha.. Think he is not used to how crazy we can go with our party.. He left for his JC gathering at Bedok while I stay, awaiting for the others to reach.. It was really fun to be sitting with my JC frenz, talking about our life now and think about how idiotic we are when we were in JC..
We started taking photos at our legendary place with alot of weird weird pose.. Den we decided to go out for Trick Or Treats on X'mas eve.. Our challenge of the night is to take a picture with a stranger.. Everyone accomplished our mission unscathed.. But thk we created a commotion when we were walking along the main road.. We sort of causes the traffic to slow down at the cross junction.. haha..
Dear came to join us after his party & we start our gift exchange & taboo session.. We played until 2 plus and find that age is really catching up on us cause we were feeling quite tired by the time le..
Slp until early afternoon cause of the late night yest.. Its another day full of prog again today.. We will be heading to Halia, a restaurant at Botanica Garden to celeb our anniversary.. Its a day later from the actual day but its fine.. That is what happened when you get together on a special day, esp X'mas when its meant to be a gathering for family & frenz.. :)
I have been looking forward to today.. Cause i never ever rem going to fine dining ever since i grow up & its been a long time i last go to botanica garden.. Will the restaurant be as gd as wat the reviews have claimed?? hehe.. I am jus acting like a little girl right?
The roses he bought for me..
He came to fetch me ard 5 plus & we went straight there.. ;p Was abit too early when we reached there so we went to take a walk ard.. Quite like the place cause its really cooling after the drizzles and the whole place was decorated with decorative X'mas trees..
The 'waterfall' near the entrance of Botanical Gargen
The X'mas Tree display..
Outside the restaurant..
We went in there & there was some screwed up.. They dont have our reservation that was made a few days back but luckily the place was not fully booked.. We were able to get our al fresco seating.. Luckily this small hiccups did not spoil my day...
Took quite a no. of photos while waiting for our food..
Dear..
Me..
The wine we ordered
Dear and his lamb chop..
Me & my ribeye steak
After our dinner..
The food is quite nice not forgetting the ambience & the great compant I have.. ;p We ordered desserts after the meal and I had my 2nd surprise for the week when the dessert come.. On the dessert it had 'happy anniversary' written on it.. Such a pleasant surprise..
I finally know why dear was abit sianz when the manager said he did see our reservation in the list just now.. He had made this special request & arrangement when he called in to make the reservation previously.. Really sweet of him.. Deep inside I was feeling really happy cause this weekend, he did a no. Of things which I never tot & expect him to do.. hehe..
Final picture b4 we left the restaurant
We went to Orchard to bask ourself in the X'mas mood & lighting.. As expected the place is really crowded.. We went to Cine to get ticket for a movie.. Went to Coffee Club to have a drk cause the show will only be starting in another 1.5 hrs time.. By the time we are done with everything, its already 2 in the morning..
Sun:
Woke up early in the morning cause dear is going to play his soccer at NUS.. But b4 sending him over, we went to the S'pore Flyers to get ticket for the 3-in-1 package for today.. It consists of the flyers ride, the boat ride and the hippo bus ride.. Yeah.. I had been to the Flyers with my family but going with bf is a totally different experience.. hehe..
I went home to rest, well not really resting also cause ard 1 plus i am out again.. Going to fetch dear at NUS.. We went to Alexandra market for lunch b4 heading to his place.. Rested for ard 2 hours and off we go for the special night out..
We reached there ard 5 plus.. Can see everyone is thinking about the same thing as us cause the place is REALLY crowded.. The next boat ride starts at 630 so we went to have our dinner at popeye cause its going to take another few hours b4 we are free again..
We were just in time to get onto the boat b4 it sail off.. If we missed this one, we will need to wait for the 730 one, the last boat ride that doesnt have a return ride back to S'pore Flyers from One Fullerton..
On the boat
Its a nice & cooling evening to be taking a boat ride.. We were behaving like tourists when we reached One Fullerton.. Taking pictures with the Merlion, the Esplanade, the CBD backdrop.. haha..
We went back to the Flyers and the queue for the ride is atrocious.. We queued for almost 1 hour b4 its our turn to get into the capsules.. But everything is worthwhile cause the night scenery is really nice and breathtaking.. The half an hour ride seems so short versus the previous time i went.. :(
By the time we finished the ride, its already 850, another 10 more mins to our next bus ride.. We rushed down to the meeting area, did not had the chance to look ard the souvenir shop cause we were told to be there 10 mins b4 the ride.. When we reached, we were told the ride was postponed to 930.... Which means we have another half an hour now..
In order to get a gd seat, we queue quite early at the waiting area.. Cause i dun wan to wait so long & get a damn lousy seat, like those that is inside or on the 1st level of the bus one.. Well, the effort paid off.. We got one of the best seats and i truly enjoy the x'mas lighting.. It started off from S'pore Flyers to Orchard then Tanglin & back to where we started.. The feeling is totally different from when you are sitting inside a car n driving along orchard road..
The ride lasted ard half an hour.. We walked back to our car and realised that there is one place the the rooftop of the carpark where you can take really nice picture of the Flyers.. We went there and took some photos b4 dear send me home & mark the end of the 4 day celebration..
i love this picture
It had been a really memorable x'mas for me.. My x'mas was never this exciting & sweet b4 dear came into my life a year ago.. I really wanna thx him for the things he had done for me for the past yr and wan to apologise to him for those things i did & said to him over the past yrs also..
