Tadahhh.
Ramadhan is here again. Today is already the 8th.
How fast time flies.
May Ramadhan this year be more meaningful for all of us.
It's time to cleanse and purify oneself and do good deeds.
Time to get closer to God above.
Semoga setiap amalan diterima olehNya. Amin.
Last updated was early July.
Im back here again to update on fantastic July!
First, it was Mr Fiancé's successful birthday celebration.
Had a hard time planning for it all.
It's never easy to plan for a surprise.
And all along, I've never succeed in suprising him.
Its been years already.
And this year, I told him we both shall plan for something
which is memorable for the both of us.
I thought of planning something simple for him.
Futhermore, it's our last celebration before we are tied down
with married life.
So i started ordering stuffs online for him.
And without me realising, items will not be delivered before his birthday.
So as normal, i started panicking.
And after some help, ive got it.
Last minute chalet at Goldkist Chalet at East Coast.
With much help for others, i managed to buy those last minute
stuffs from Mustafa Center the night before.
Went rushing here and there for presents and stuffs.
And Thank God, ive got a few to help me out with
transporting and preparing it all.
Mr Fiancé was working morning shift on that day.
Fake plan was to go and have a mini celebration for the two
of us at East Coast Lagoon.
So many heads were working on how to surprise him.
Its hard, i can say.
Cos he's an alert man. He is so alert that the plan can just go wrong.
Still, with much help, i brought him to the carpark chalet.
And thats where, he got sabotaged with eggs and flour.
Wuhooo! Finally, i made it.
A last minute simple chalet.
But most surprising for him is the presents.
Cos all his presents are yellow.
His favourite color.
His Swensens ice cream cake is yellow too!
So there goes his last singlehood birthday celebration.
Next, my 22nd birthday celebration!
Now this is the exciting part that i wanna share.
Days before my birthday, i so called got to know the gift.
Gucci tote bag.
And he made me believe that there's no surprise this year
and the gift is that Gucci tote.
He played me out all along.
Which i didnt even notice.
All these years, his surprise always work.
So i tell myself, this year no surprise cos ive spoilt it all.
Ok, so be it.
Just another year older.
So he made plans to go Carousel the day before my birthday.
I dressed up soo lady-like, with my long dress.
And packed my things ready for the day.
He came to my place with his car.
Just as i wanna open the car door, i tried to roll my eyes at the
back seat. Who knows I can find my Gucci tote. But its not there.
Next, i found a bouquet of red roses on my chair just as i open the door.
22 stalks of red roses to be exact.
How romantic can he be?
Wahhh! You make me blush baby.
Its been soo long since i received flowers.
Last was just a stalk of red rose on Valentine's day years ago.
Next to Carousel to have our high tea buffet.
Nothing much there but overall was great.
Food was good.
Afterwhich we head down to Far East, since its just opposite.
Window-shopping every level.
Fickle minded stop me from spending money.
The motive of going there was to kill time.
So when time is up, he asked me if im ready for the next surprise.
Ok, so i thought since i know the present earlier,
it must be some other surprise that he has planned.
Looking forward to have that Gucci tote.
So next, he drove to Paya Lebar pump station.
And he took out this cute pink blindfold which he asked me to wear la.
So, trying to be sporting, i do what he says.
Though many times, i laughed and keep asking where.
Eyes got blindfolded, ears got blast with loud music.
Trying to figure out where he is heading to, i lost my way
and so i couldnt even guess where am i.
Upon reaching this unknown place, he guided me the way.
He asked me to hold the bouquet of roses and just follow the instruction.
I did.
Came to a point, where i could feel the strong aircon and strong nice smell.
Tried to figure it out, but still, its unknown to me.
And when my iphone stops its song before playing another,
i heard, "Welcome to Singapore Zoo."
What?! Zoo?
I dont think so.
With his hand holding mine and making me turned here and there,
finally he asked me to sit.
Heart was pumping real fast.
Im still clueless where am i.
Next moment, he switch off the music and asked me to take out the blindfold.
And tadahhhhh!
SURPRISEE.
"Happy 22nd Birthday Susila"
Thats the first thing i saw over the city view when i open my eyes
and next the reflection of my dear friends behind me.
As normal, being an emotional girl, i shed tears.
Tears of joy.
Celebration at Marina Bay Sands.
Awesome!
Presents and games and speech.
Petals of roses everywhere.
Endless wishes.
All make me wanna cry so bad.
I just cant stop smiling.
But wait, its not over.
Every single one seems to be rushing home.
Nobody seems wanna stay over.
Its kinda weird.
After everyone went home, Mr Fiancé got everything prepared.
He placed soft drinks on the small table infront of the
bathtub filled with bubble foams. So we had our own time, chit-chatting and
laughing away. Little did i know, the surprise doesnt end there.
After shower and as i was preparing myself for a goodnight sleep,
i saw another wrapped gift on the bed.
Wahh! I love surprise.
I unwrapped and tore it all, but only to see a fake longchamp.
So being the normal me, i asked, "Isnt this fake?"
So he asked me back, "You want an orginal one instead?"
The moment he popped that Q, he showed me Longchamp original paperbag.
Next, he took out another original giftbox from the pillow where he hid it
and passed to me.
Unwrapped it, and tadahhh! Longchamp tote which ive been eye-ing!
Of course i cant stop smiling.
He knows it well that i love surprises.
Every single thing was just awesome!
So all along, he made me believe that there was Gucci.
When there isnt any in the first place.
I thought he didnt make it this time to make a good surprise.
But in fact, he made the best surprise ever!
Indeed, its a memorable one.
The last singlehood birthday.
I love it!

♥ @ Tuesday, July 05, 2011 ♥
It's been soo long. I know it has been such a long time.
I just feel like Blogging today, after almost 8months.
Too many things happened.
Whatever it is, 2010 has been a good year.
2011 started off well enough.
But months and months that have passed,
its been quite a challenging one.
I believe there's more to come.
May I've got all the strength to go through it all,
Ups and downs are normal in life.
I dont deny it all.
Early of the year, travelled up to Hatyai with
Mr Fiancé and his Hayabusa.
Thank God, it was a safe and smooth journey for us.
Experienced all those hectic and lethargic hours
on the road for almost 12hrs.
Above all that, we managed and succeed! ;)
Savings have been prompt each month.
Strict savings, I must say.
It's for our upcoming big day next year.
May God Willing.
It's less than a year away. I'm excited and impatient but
at the same time, I'm nervous and terrified.
Let's just pray that it will be a smooth and successful event.
After quite a number of BTO applications, we finally secured
a place in Punggol. It will only be ready in about 3 years time.
By then, hopefully we will be able to settle down in our own place
we shall call HOME.
April 16, Mr Fiancé got into a serious bike accident with his
Hayabusa and suffered serious injuries incl his broken right kneecap.
Things weren't easy for us but Alhamdulilahh he's recovering well and fast.
Knowing that he got the strong will, I'm sure he will be recovering fully soon.
Relationship has been good so far.
Arguments occur here and there but I hope it makes
us stronger and not fall into something else.
May He gives us all the strength and patiece to go thru it all.
Less than a month, it will be Ramadhan.
How time flies.
But I hope it will be a more meaningful one for us cos
this is my last year being single before getting hitched.
Last single birthday, last single countdown and last single Raya of course.
I dont expext celebrations for it all.
I just wanna make it a memorable and meaningful one
before I've got tied down. ;)
I've got few months left to go for marriage preparation course,
to decide on my wedding theme and venue
but roughly I've got an idea.
I've yet to search for unique wedding door gifts.
Bridal make up artist and costumes
and catering are all set way earlier.
Insyaallah, I've got that ample time to sort it all out.
Ok, its nearly 7am and all i need to do now is to force myself to bed.
Working at 9am!
Till we meet again.
Easier said, life is not easy.
With much love,
Susila.
♥ @ Monday, November 22, 2010 ♥
I'm finally back here.
After months. (:
My 21st is a special day that i will always remember.
Not those bombastic celebration that ive got.
But its baby's grandpa's death anniversary.
My birthdate is grandpa's death date.
The day that i will always remember, the day that im reminded not
to be too happy about being a year older.
Atok, you will always be in my prayers.
The day when i visited you, i whispered to you.
"If only you are here, i would have talked to you in person.
I've never got the chance to. And here i am, whispering prayers to
you on your graveyard.
Insyaallah ditempatkan di dalam golongan orang2 yang beriman. Al-fatehah."
Ive changed bikes twice within 3 months.
After i got my 2A license, i rode baby's superb bike, Super 4 Spec III.
It was indeed a great ride, a ride that i have always love.
But ive changed to Suzuki Drz after 2months.
But ended up not satisfied with it. Ive no choice but continue riding.
It wasnt that bad after all, only speed that concerns me. (:
No worries, once i doll you up nicely, eyes will be on you Baby Zee.
I've started cooking! Well, still learning. And soon, i will be ready to cook for everyone.
Especially for husband-to-be. Eeeeyeeeww. Haha.
Ok, saving for marriage isnt as easy as it seems.
You get so stress up everytime when you need to put aside that big amount monthly.
I wonder how people get married without forking out those big amount.
Put aside, those who are forced to get married.
How i wish ive got the money!
We have yet to come out with the wedding theme.
I would love to have a white wedding, but i would also love to have a shocking pink and black.
Wait till ive decided on this.
For now, lets just focus on the saving.
And yes! We have applied a BTO scheme.
Results not out yet. Hopefully we are one of those who got successful application.
I dont mind staying with his parents for the time being. But i would love to have my own place
that i will call home.
Things have been doin great soo far.
Work has been alot busier this month till year end.
May bonus this year be good. (:
And please wake me up when December ends.
Cos i need a great getaway.
Ok, thats all for now.
I dont know when i will be back here again.
But i try to update real soon.
Take care everyone!
