Unending birthday surprise

I thought my birthday will end having a simple dinner with bebe. After office, I went to Suntec and waited for him. As soon as he got out from the office, we hailed a cab to my surprise (bec there are a lot of hotels around the suntec area), and I looked at him with a questioning look to which he just smiled back. What added more fun to my surprise was how the driver loves to sing and serenades us with the songs of the platters and some old songs. Its like having Frank Sinatra drove us all the way to Mount Faber. Oh yeah, about the surprise, as soon as we got off, it was a real total surprise for me to know that he had made a reservation that I didn't get any hint of. It was really, really romantic! A dinner at the cable car swept my feet off. Sorry Im a sucker for surprises and romantic scenes. For our appetizer, we both had salmon salad and a creamy mushroom soup. Food wasn't all very "wow" but the ambiance and the person im with made me really really in love and happy.

At the middle of our appetizer and cable car tour, I felt dizzy. Because I was sick the whole day *damn woman thing*, I told him how I really appreciate everything and that I was really sorry to feel sick amidst of the whole romantic thing, and asked him if we could have the rest of the dinner somwhere in the restaurant to which he lovingly agreed. But another surprise came up. He took out something from his pocket which is the "ring" and opened it and asked me "will u be my wife?". *It was the second proposal and it's a long story how he got back the ring* My first words after shock? "My ring!". Then I said "Yes, of course!" hehehe. I actually shouted it hihihi. I don't know what I did to deserve this kind of blessings but I really really thanked GOD for "setting me up" with someone sooooo hensem and sweet and loving as my bebe. Things were not perfect for us but I'd rather have bad times with him than good times with someone else.

He asked the waiters waiting for us to serve our main course to just serve it elsewhere bec I was dizzy. I felt bad. =( The waiters set up a table near the place, and was shocked to see a couple also having dinner there who got dizzy too. Later on, bebe admitted to me that he got dizzy too, *i knew it! lack of sleep i guess*, and we had actually fun the whole night. We had our main course, toast with a glass of wine.

After the dinner, since we never had the chance to ask someone to take our picture with the romantic setting of the cable car, we took this shot for a glimpse of what I was talking about.

My birthday is about to end! And I need something to end it beautifully. Ah, a shot of the MRT. Splendid! *Tenks to Inay and Itay's camera hihihi*

For my 30th year, GOD had given me million reasons to be very grateful and utterly jovial with all the things around me now. Though I had a difficult time dealing with some things, still, my faith that He'll never lets me drown to my desolation never cease.
