Valentine's day just pass 48 hours ago, and my lappy has been kidnap by yien so cant update.. *hahaha rubbish reasons huh?*
okay now time for a most recent update about the Valentine's day which just passes.
So wud's valentine's day? couple buy each other flowers, chocolate, bears, candle light dinners and yada yada yada... I dont think so... these are just few of the many elements of V'day.. sumthing needs to be done in order to create a chemistry to blend all of the element together which makes up the true meaning of V'day.. to express sumthin to sumone..
recalling the X'mas eve experience that causes 2 hours plus of food hunting for a decent bowl of mushroom soup and carbonara.. i figure out that its not a wise choice burn the wallet for a choice less, tasteless, unworthy "take-it or leave-it" standardize uncontrolled quality dinner SET.
Its my 1st Valentine with this special gal, and so i tell myself well.. i cant let my 1st valentine as pek cek as the X'mas eve hunting simple food that we want for more than 2 hours getting food that is not as delicious as usual.. so i've decided to use around the same amount of money that would cost a couple to buy a standard SET dinner which every1 else wud hav had on V'day and make my very own "cheft at hum V day experience" for her.
My time was tight as recently my grandma has admitted into hospital and she need sum1 to look after her 24/7 plus my current contract has shrink into 2 years contract instead of 2 years and 4 months. Time's tight which means less time to tangkap ular.. and not to mention preparation..
On sum random brainstorming during day dream session, my mind generate the picture that i want on that night piece by piece.. little touch of the scene we 1st meet with all other element that she mention that she likes.. *hehe its more then our 1st Vday so effort is a must lo* cumulatively 8~10 hours surveying materials for decos, 3~4 hours doing purchasing.. and left 1 more day to the BIG day... hour plus to clean and rearrange my room [yup too long din do room keeping.. haha] since its night time i pull the running LED lights and set-up the dim light to test the effect.
on the morning of Vday we had breakfast like usual at the place wher we use to go. *I don wanna make much different so that the surprise level wud be emphasis on the night hehe* after sending her back hum after bfast, i rush to the site to finish up my task, being a bit dizzy after whole morning of restless job i drove my car for a wash and rest for a bit while waiting the car to be done. after that another round of rushing begins, collecting flowers and went back hum to prepare the balloons and sum final decos for fresh roses pedals, candlelight dinner tables and chairs so on which tooks the entire afternoon away... and so i had to continue cooking and then rush for a quick but clean shower making sure there's no food smell on me that cud leak my surprise.. * i wus actuallly quite worried that she doesn't like this arrangement... i really had very limited time to do all this.. and when i finish i myself still thinks there's lack of sumthin..okay now time for a most recent update about the Valentine's day which just passes.

but anyway herecomes the night...
When i went to her house its quite dark so the bouquet of red and champagne color roses is tidily hide behind the tinted glasses before she enters the car, and when she enters the smile on her face just comforts me so much.. knowing my work is getting appreciated although the quality of the flower is less than i expected.. anyway i tricked her saying i had to go hum to take sumthin that i forgot..
reaching house i told her to help me get the things i left while i do sumthin downstairs, and in a flash i grab a lighter speed up to my room and light up the candle on the dining table before she comes in. double checking the lights are dim and music is on i let her into my room. the moment she enters i can feel that she's happy enuf that tears are coming out.. that moment i felt that all these things i did is so worth it and luckily i did wud i think i sud do...the hunting for a equally nice n cute bouquet of bears, baloons, roses, cooking preparation all are priceless the moment she smile from her heart.
We took our sweet time having dinner i prepare earlier in the comfort of my own room. Mushroom soup to start with follow by my signature classic spaghetti *though that night is a bit too dry hehe* camwhoring along the way and wraps up everything with Choc mud [a must for Vday ma], her favourite black forest all from secret recipe, flush down with nice and cold beer when we finish.
After that we went out finding ideal places to take photo for memories but then my energy level has really gone down by that time so i'd all sleepy face the photo session haha... but we really enjoyed our 1st Vday.
p/s: din have much photo through the process actually cuz of very limited time.. but anyway the photo that night its all at: here *hehe all photo has already nicely edited liao ma so i can curi tulan a bit lo ho hehe
