Love Is In the Air

Last Saturday, we attended an surprise engagement party (surprise to the bride-to-be lah) planned by the groom-to-be, Terrence who I've known since pimary school days. Finally, he proposed to his girlfriend of many years. He planned the whole setup which involved a yatching experience, proposal somewhere in the Straits of Malacca, a 1.11 carat diamond ring (jeepers!!!!) and champagne, which I allowed myself to sip about 0.1ml.

The party was held at the Royal Selangor Yatch Club in Port Klang. It took us more than 45mins to get there due to the traffic. Good thing is that my mother is from Klang so I know my way around the town. It was a blistering hot day but Bryan was oblivious to it. He was happily running around the compound which is built on stilts, being chased by my friend's 2yr old daughter and essentially, getting in people's way. We had to wait for an hour for the lovebirds to return from sea, do the whole "Surprise" thing, take photos before we were seated for lunch. I was feeling extremely tired that day so poor VT had to do all the running around. At the end, I couldn't decide who perspired more - VT or Bryan!

On the romance front, it is so nice to see 2 people in love and made me reminisce about my own proposal. Seemed like such a long time ago! I'm now looking forward to attending their wedding, which I heard, is slated for 2009.

Family potrait (hate my arms!!)

Bryan on the run!

Notice his red cheek caused by the heat?
