Venue

- Quality Hotel; Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant



Lotus Restaurant is one of my dad's favourite hang out place.
He is a vegetarian so we fixed the venue at the vegetarian restaurant, thou andy detest to eat vegetarian food.. Bo Bian mah.. hehe.. Actually its not much of 'tan pan' but more of a small 'get to know' and discussion session.

We met to discuss what my parents wanted for the wedding. As usual traditional practice, my mum asked for cakes, oranges, etc and of course we are a teochew thus we asked for 'Si Dian Jin'.
Before this discussion my parents had a slight 'heaty' discussion over the stuff required. My mum was tradition while my dad was modern. My dad trys to abolish the tradition (i.e: roast pig) to make things simple while my mum believes we shld follow the tradition requirements. Anyway they still managed to compromise and come out with the list. No matter what they required I believed they wanted the best for us, be it modern or tradition. Sometimes, traditional stuffs might not be logical but every single thing represents something correct.

The discussion went smoothly and to be frank nothing much was discussed coz my mum written everything that is needed on a pc of red paper already and Andy's Gu ma will be asking for the wedding dates on our behalf.
As for Andy and Me, we can start our research!!

The Proposal

29th February 08 - We are the first few having a ride at the flyer before they even officially operates. After the ride, we headed down to St James Power Station, Dragonfly, where we met his and my friends as well as his cousin. As usual, its super packed and some live telecast of fights.

Slightly after midnight there's commotion very near our table. I suppose a guy got drank and hit on the other guy and there's when the fight started. Sufang and me quickly 'siam' before we kena hit too. After the fight i keep bugging andy to go home. Its not safe there and i am very tired already. But he keep insisted that we go home after another round of live performance. *_*

All of the sudden while we are watching the live performance, William Scorpion made an announcement.
WS: Where is Andy and Cassandra?
Andy: *Wave*
Cass: Was shock, *Wave*
WS: Cassandra, Andy would like to proposed to u. Will u marry him?
Andy: On his knees with a diamond ring
Cass: Shouted-ok
WS: Cassandra do u accept his proposal? (apparently he didnt get me)
Cass: Shouted-ok + 'ok hand sign'
WS: Cassandra i take it as ok (he still didnt get me *sweat*, i was too far fr the stage anyway)
Cass: Pull andy up
Andy: Handed the diamond ring and 99nos of roses to cass

Now i know why he wanted to wait for the live performance.
The proposal came late (3am in the morning) as the management are not able to make the announcement due to their packed schedule of performance. A heartfelt thanks to Ah-yeong, Vennance, Ah-Leow, Alvin, Vincent, Max, Sufang, Trivin, Davina and those who we unintentionally missed out to make this happen and 'dong' till 3am. (^.*)

The 'Part-tall' Days

Like most of the couples.. We quarrel over the slightest, thiny, weeny issues. He is so stubborn and notorious like a rock so hard to convince him and like to insist his own way. While for me, i didnt give way either.

Then wat to do.. Quarrel loh. Volcano erupts.. haha.. See who wan to pull down their face and give way.

One of the issue that we quarrel most is definitely abt his car. He is damn particular of the way he puts his things in the car. If i put wrongly then kena scolded. Who on earth can be similar and put things the same way. Not flexible at all. And no matter how late we reach home if it rains we juz gotta clean the car. Don't know y he is so persistant.. arghh.. But i juz gotta go along the flow. *sobz*

Lucky me, most of the time he gives way to me.. that's only when the volcano erupts ok. Nevertheless he took some effort to compromise in most of the stuffs that i don't like and things that i want he to do. At least he changed his car coz that old car causes alots of prob and he took up a part time course thou he always fall asleep in class. Hopefully, he can complete the course by end of this year. *cross fingers*

~* Once we accept the limits & differences, we go beyond them *~

The Identity

So who is HE and SHE? Lets have a brief introduction of our identity

SHE.....Its me.. I am Cassandra, u can call me Cass coz alot of ppl say me name too long *rolling eyes*. I will be the blog mistress and do most of the maintenance and updating.

I am quick tempered, considerate, go by the book, senstitive and when get angry can be like 'po fu ma jie' but dun worry only HE will kena... I remb the first time the volcano (ME) erupted he told me that no one in his life had ever scolded him this way not even his parents.Poor thing.. haha..

The poor guy HE = ANDY.


But i think he is not very ke lian after all if he dun make me angry right. hohoho.. Anyway, lets talk abt him. Since i know him, he is a freaking car lover.

Everytime after a rain he will have to clean his car coz he afraids of having water stain. So can u imagine if there is a few showers in a day he can clean his car a few times in a day too. If the rain is too heavy he can go to the extend to leave his car in the carpark and we gotta take public transport. Stupid leh. He works for the car instead of the other way round.

So when i told him abt this bloggy that i am going to do abt 'US', he told me to put in the pic of his ex-car (juz changed to a madza 3-sp mths back) which he is very proud of and had dumped tons of $$$.

From the above pic and if u r also a car lover, u can see that he likes to 'play' with cars. He always tell me a born-racer will always be a racer..blah blah..

But i am happy enough that he sold his car, thou his favourite, at abt $20k and bought mazda 3-SP.. Ahh.. at least there is much more comfort but is bloody driving skills nv change.. chiong here and there. Only put my life at risk. @.@

So how a short-tempered and go by the book ger dates with the notorious guy? Check them out under ♥ The 'Part-tall' Days ♥
