I just want to share one of the most memorable events of
my life this past 2014. It was not conventional to propose a marriage to a man
but for me it’s worth it. We've been talking about starting a family
at the age of 30 back then but it turned out that plans may change without
prior notice. Ha-ha! If someone will tell, why hurry?
Psalms 90:10 As for the days of our life, they
contain seventy years, Or if due to strength, eighty years, Yet their pride is
but labor and sorrow; For soon it is gone and we fly away. Well, I love my man
that much that I want to spend my 43 years with him if God will allow me to
stay on earth that long. Besides, ten years of bf/gf relationship is already
enough. How did it happen?
February 9, 2014, two days before his birthday, we had an
outing with our very close college friends (Laiza, Pauline, Tope, Kring and her
love Bombie) in La Luz Beach Resort. I have this habit of surprising my man
since he’s so special to me. I don’t settle on regular gifts. Celebrating
special occasion for the past 10 years drained my ideas of unique surprises.
Thus, proposing to the man I love excites me. We did all the preparation in
just one week not to mention our day jobs. That was a success keeping a small
secret to a man na buntot ko araw araw. Rings, flowers, proposal cake and venue
were all set with the help of the gang. Here are some of our photos with
matching pre-nup photos kuno taken by our dear friend Tope:
