I came across this beautiful poem on a card when I was shopping with my sis for a birthday present yesterday at Precious Thoughts located at Tampines mall.. It tickled and warmed my heart at the same time. (: It's a card from a husband to his wife.. Full of honesty.. Simple yet the poem captures the love he has for his wife..

Once there was this nice guy.
A nice guy, really.
And he met this girl.
An incredible girl -truly amazing.
So naturally the guy falls
head over heels in love with her,
and pretty soon they're picking out
china patterns and rings
and there's a wedding
and the starry-eyed couple
rides off into what will surely
be a rosy future

Okey, so now some time has passed
and the guy is living in that future
He's still married to this girl
but now their life includes a lot more stuff -
appliances and bills and loads of laundry
and home repair projects
But between all the to-dos and have-tos,
there are these moments
when the guy stops for a minute
and looks around him.

He looks at his wife,
who is still truly amazing.
He looks at their life together,
all the ways and different
directions it's grown,
he looks at all
the responsibilities he's got,
and he thinks to himself,
so, this is my life

And then he thinks,
I am one helluva lucky guy.

I love you, darling..

Isn't the poem just truly amazing? (:

Yesterday was prom night! I was so excited and panicky actually! hahah! I called fizah over to help me out yesterday afternoon.. And my mom took time off from her work to help me too! whee! It was her birthday yesterday! Sorry, mama.. Couldn't celebrate your birthday.. ): But we'll celebrate it when shara comes home from Hong Kong.. Anyway, it was great fun dressing up! Hahah! Shall show you the final me! ((:

Fizah, my mom and I had so much fun! hahah! We were joking around, playing with the scarf cause we're unsure how to go about doing it.. hahah! But it turned out quite cool! hahah! Secret: Fizah is the first person to come over to my house, with reasons other than a raya visit! HAHAH! My mom and fizah hit off pretty well and they kept teasing me! XD

I left house at 5pm and took the train to city hall MRT station.. on the way everyone was staring! I just felt so weird and embarrassed! I feel so overdressed! then I couldn't find the hotel! I called aishah, hakeym and lubna for direction but they weren't too sure.. In the end I called my dad (why didn't I think of that earlier?!) and he gave me specific directions.. And I found Marina Mandarin! whee! Gosh! I was early.. First few to arrive.. hahah.. I got a rose when I entered.. Nice touch! I love it! and it matches my outfit! hahah! I met up with my classmates and took lots of photos! HAHAH! and aishah! man! She's so funky and cool! I love her outfit! My picture with her and sye yuet was one of my favourite photo!

Well, the prom was not really up to my expectation but it was fine.. (: Thanks, SC.. oh! I love the door gift, it was "sweet".. hahah! literally sweet! (:
