Another 4 months has passed since my last update. To be honest, I don't even remember updating in March. But once again, am going to try and update my blog as much as I can.

So why all of a sudden? I guess it was cause I was looking through all photos on FB the other day and it really made me remember/reminisce about all the stuff I did. My holidays/trips, my dog which my family adopted and how she was stick skinny before and we could actually see her waist. Now? She just looks like a log - no waist :P. All the random photos that got posted up and people actually contributing to the funny comments. I actually spent an hour going through the photos.

So what has happened since my last post? Got myself a job and quit quite soon after cause I wasn't really coping well there. Went back to KL for a little bit to visit husband/family and friends especially since husband was not around. Will be heading back again mid September.

But I guess the most recent thing that happened and is worth blogging about today is that I FINALLY got my full license in Australia. I don't even remember how long I've been holding my P's for! Had to a computer test to get from my Green P's to full license which includes multiple choice questions and a simulation which I failed the first time btw! Oh! and apparently I got a 50% discount cause I have had no traffic offences in the last 5 years! Haha, what they don't know is, I pretty much haven't been in the country for 4 out of that 5 years. Oh well - am not complaining since I had to re-new my P's once before this already. Haha! Spent so much with the RTA over the years. Let's see if I can remember:

- 1 x Knowledge test - to get my L's
- 1 x Renewal of my L license because I didn't pass my driving test in time
- 4 x Driving test - to get to my red P's
- 1 x Driving test / computer test (can't remember which is it to get to my green P's) - to get green P's
- 1 x Renewal of my green P's cause it was expiring and I hadn't taken the test cause I was out of the country
- 2 x Computer test - to get to my full license.

I think that's about it.


Alright, time to go to bed. Good night world!

Wow - my first post in 1 year! Haha! So much for trying to blog more huh? Well, updates?

1. I got married
2. I started a new business - BluMagoo (https://www.facebook.com/blumagooo). It's a online blog shop selling ladies clothes and fashion with the aim of bringing international style such as Zara/ASOS/H&M and even higher end designer stuff such as Chanel, LV, D&G at local/affordable prices. So ladies, do come and check us out!
3. I moved back to Australia - by myself! Missing my husband like crazy and leaving everything behind has not been easy. :(

So I guess that's everything in a nutshell - not bad for a first post after 1 year? hahaha.. :P

Laters.

Thought I should blog about this story just so that I can look back and remember all the funny/good memories next time. So here's what happened...

Last Friday, Chris took me out to Jake's to celebrate my belated birthday. After dinner, we tried to catch a movie but as it was a Friday night, there were no movies available. So we ended shopping instead. All expense paid so far were all in cash -  we were running low and knew that we needed to get to the bank. 

The next morning, we headed to Thean Hou temple to go and book a date for our registration. As the lady was going through our documents, she handed us a slip of paper which confirms our date and time. It also included a RM80 registration fee. Me and Chris looked at each other and stoned for a while. We then opened up our wallets to check how much money we had. Halfway counting, I looked up at the lady and asked, "do you take credit card?" and she just shaked her head slowly and looked at me with a frown on her forehead as though as I was joking. 

So me and Chris pulled out all our notes - we had RM76 bucks in notes! I then had to scramble for coins and guess what? There was JUST ENOUGH! After paying, I literally had 30 cents left in my wallet!! :P The best part was? When we arrived at Thean Hou temple, there was an option to park by the side of the road, or park like 50m nearer in the parking lot. Chris decided to park in there which costed us RM3! Haha! 

Oh! And there was a tau foo far shop outside the temple as well which we were contemplating on buying to eat! Thank god we didn't! If not, we definitely would not have enough money to pay to register! Haha! Talk about getting my priorities right huh? Enough money to have steak at Jakes and shop but not enough to pay to get registered! Hahaahaha!

So, I said I would blog about my proposal. Here it is. Before I start, I need to establish a few short stories. All of which all happened the week before the proposal:

Story No. 1
Chris' dad's car had broken down the week before.

Story No.2
One of Chris' friend had started going out with a chic recently and had asked me where me and Chris used to go when we first started dating. I thought he was fishing for ideas on places to bring the chic. 

So, it was the weekend of the proposal. It was also one of Chris' friends wedding on that Saturday weekend. They had some friends coming in from Australia and NZ. So he told me (a coupla days before the wedding) that there was going to be dinner on Sunday to catch with them before they went back. So, I was like okay. He was even discussing with me where to go etc. 

So the day after the wedding, after lunch, he then told me that he had to go and take his dad's car in to the workshop and told me that he couldn't teman me. So I was like fine (still not suspecting anything). After lunch, I just went to my sister's place to chill out. The one thing I realised was that he kept calling during the day to see where I was and what I was doing. But somehow, nothing clicked. He told me dinner was at about 7, so all I had to do was get back to his house at about 6.30 and then we'll go to dinner. I arrived slightly later that evening. 

But when I got back to his place, he was already quite anxious. The first thing he told me was that we were late which I admittedly thought in my head. He then told me that one of his friends' car broke down at the park! Immediate thought to my head was - omg, did his friend bring his chica to the park? I was smiling with glee because I thought I was gonna be able to catch the 2 in action.. :P So we hurried out. He kept saying saying that we were late and we'll quickly go pick him up and go straight to the restaurant. Before we left the house, I was even smart enough (or at least I thought I was) to ask if he needed jumper cables. But he said no, and said that we'll come back after dinner to get his car. 

Before I go on again, think I'll need to explain how the park is structured. It's a park where it kinda has 2 levels. So there was this quite long flight of stairs down where there was a tennis court and also a football field. Anyway, so we park. I got out of the car and asked, where is he? Bf answered, maybe he's down there. Again, i was like ok. So I walked to the top of the stairs. And there I saw, ALL my friends and HIS friends standing below, holding signs. 1 said "Will You Marry Me" and 1 more said 'just do it"! I was in shocked! I remember staring at the signs for the longest time! I guess, just wondering whether this was really happening! When I turned around, I already saw him on 1 knee! And asked me to marry him! 

What did i do? I smacked him first! Calling him stupid! Haha! For not telling me to dress nicely! Mind you, I was just wearing a normal t-shirt and a denim skirt and hadn't showered for the day cause I was thinking to myself, I'll just shower after the dinner cause it was not like the place was very fancy. But, I guess, after that, i nodded and everything was done! 

So? What happened behind the scenes?

1. He had already asked my parents for my hand in marriage like 4 months before
2. He did not go and help his dad with the car. He was actually making signs at home with his friend all afternoon.
3. The friend was obviously not there with his chica and was not asking me those questions for himself. The friend and bf were discussing where was the best place to do the proposal and wanted to see if there was any other places which was special to us which maybe my bf left out. There was none btw. :P 
4. Apparently while bf was on his knees, he had like a whole speech which I did not hear. The only thing I heard was the most important question.

So there it is! My bf proposed to me, on the 15th of January 2012!

First and foremost, I just wanna thank everybody who is still reading this even without me prompting on Facebook that I have updated my blog. I know I have once again left this blog hanging but once again, am going to try and update this as often as I can! It's been pretty hectic the last coupla months.

So whats been up? Let's see...

There was Christmas, then it was New Year. Then my little niece gave birth! And I went to Australia again for my friends wedding. At the same time, my other niece was born - yes, I now have 1 nephew and 3 nieces! Last but not least, the most important out of all the events that happened... I GOT ENGAGED!

For those who are reading this, should already know the story so am not going to bother even re-capping. Hmm.. but just thought about it, that's what this blog is for right? If it's not to keep memories, then what? Guess I'll do a separate blog just for it. And will try and do it soon so that the story is still fresh in my head. 

Anyway, so now wedding is going to be in August. So quick some people might say? Let me know announce it here to the 2 / 3 people who is reading this - NO, I AM NOT PREGNANT! If I was, you would be able to see it in August! :P But yes, why so quick? Again, another long story! LOL! But to cut short? It's due to my Australian PR, and I might have a chance of going back to Australia by end of the year. So yea.. :( 

So since I barely have less than 5 months to plan, I have since, managed to meet with a designer and CONFIRM what kind of dress I want with her. Will go back in 2-3 months for first fitting. Kinda decided on the venue - we just need to confirm the booking by actually paying the first round of deposits. We have bought 1 wedding band - mine! :P And it's very pretty! Will most likely get the fiancee's one tomorrow or the day after. And that's pretty much it? Does that mean i'm screwed guys? Haha!

Anyway, it's getting late. Will update more later! =)
