Best day of my life

Marriage - the most beautiful thing happened in my life recently. It's not exaggerating at all when I label myself as the luckiest girl on earth. First, my partner did most of the work from understanding legal document and registration procedures; then looking for suitable venues, and most importantly, organising the event like a professional planner. All I have to do is eat and rest well like a queen :)
 
Before the actual day of our wedding, I had lovely bunch of friends who were voluntarily offered to help. There was no way I could refuse the courtesy from people who were so excited and anticipated about our personal event. I'm really thankful.
 
In the presence of our close family and friends, we made prayers, exchanged personalised vows and rings. The entire flow was smooth and well organised by the Buddhist Society team. We received overwhelming blessings from people who attended the wedding and those who couldn't make it, they sent the heartfelt wishes as if they witnessed the event.
 
Every bit of this moment reminded me about a man I have met two years ago - with no prejudice and judgements, he chose to accept and stay with me for the ups and downs. For a man who avoids attention at all costs, he decided to surprise me with a wedding proposal in a restaurant, which he had already planned for 6 months. For a man who never makes promises, he fulfills all he could and makes sure the smile on my face is the ending he would love to see.

The night after our wedding, he held my hands and looked into my eyes, said, 'I marry you for wanting to give you a home belongs to you and I.' I know, this means more than the L word. Likewise my vow to my partner, we committed to manage a beautiful marriage together after the wedding.
 
Today, I am married to a wonderful man and I want to remember this as the best day of my life. Thank you, I'm grateful to have you in my life.

Wednesday's Frisbee Day

Image
You would not know how much Ultimate Frisbee has meant to us. Friendship, fun, and precious memories on and off the field. Robbstar suggested us to join a club. We encouraged ourselves walking to Oval 7. We took up a stomach of courage to mingle with Caucasians. We looked over our shoulders for others' amazing throw. Eventually, Nathan's ponytail and warm greeting relieved our anxiety. JJ remembered our Chinese names so well without slight confusion on ice-breaker session. Alex always initiated a talk. Kaitlin asked us to come over their table for dinner after our first game. Taylor gave me too much information about his funny family in our second or third game. Julian happily allowed us to lift his skirt. We got Brenton to talk gibberish about his lung inside his body. The next season we returned to the field, we were familiarised with most of the people already. And Nathan? He never gets tired of inviting us to any occasion and he's still our top favourite Aussie ever! Ul...

Who shall be the next on the altar

Image
Attended my cousin sis' wedding and it was the best I've ever attended and had fun with all my family members. Guess what, we owned the dance floor and everyone was so keen to join us after us warming up the floor. Grandparents from both sides were laughing and clapping on the beat. The best part of all was, the hired singer cheekily requested "I'd play you a song before we call it a night, with one condition - YOU ALL MUST DANCEEEEEE!" And he sang and played ABBA!!!!!!! I was secretly praying for Lady Gaga's Just Dance since they played Wavin' Flag in the beginning of dinner, which was kinda awkward as Paraguay vs Spain was in the game that night itself. And that's what you do when someone tried to steal your floor as well as limelight. 6 of us - 2 were already happily married within a year. Who's next? You bet.

Snacks with identities

Image
Back in The Manors, there were some remarkable groceries which defined a tenant's individuality and distinctive tastes that would easily be identified in the kitchen cabinets and super small refrigerator. So by looking at these spectacular snacks, you will point at it and confidently say, "OMG! This is so You!" My roommate, Robbster Cabinet: Cadbury, Darell Lea, and other Australian brand chocolate bars and confectioneries; unique tinned box's biscuits purchased during Easter's Day; various 1kg cereal boxes; Fridge: Greek cheese, fruity cheese, Nude juices, Ski/Yoplait/Home brand yoghurts, lite/low fat milks, more carrots and tomatoes and chicken thighs/fillets, Sara Lee's ice-cream, some special dessert. They were more but the point here is, she is voted as the most health-conscious fellow among three of us. My housemate, Debbie Cabinet: Korean spicy/seafood/Shin/Jae-Jyung Myeon instant noodles; Instant mushroom soups; dried pasta and pasta white sauces; 3-in...
