Shirtless

Just like any other nights, I will sleep before hubby. Last 2 days, when I was awake in the morning, I found him sleeping shirtless beside me and below is our morning conversation :-

Me : Dear, why are you half naked? Where is your shirt?

Hubby : I didn't wear a shirt yesterday night.

Me : Why?

Hubby : Cannot find my shirt, so I just sleep shirtless lo... (in a very cute&sleepy tone)

Me : (Laugh)

Hubby : (Continue snoozing)

He made my day :) Such a cute and simple darling. Love you lots.

Absence

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is the one and only phrase that darling love to tell me whenever we didn't meet for a day or two. Our usual practice would be meeting each other every day since Day 1. Exception would be those days where he go overseas/outstations/burning midnight oil. But he will still replace something for me to hug or cling on :D

I am basically very attached to him which sometimes I felt that I robbed a lot of his alone time, rest time and even buddy's time. Though I feel bad and heartache whenever I see him snooze off almost everywhere he could possibly find but I just can't find myself not seeing him each day. I admit that I am very much spoiled by him in many ways. Most of the time, I will get what I requests. He has been very patience with me and been trying his very best to fulfill all my weirdest demands. Spoiled brat in other term.

Darling, I'm not writing this down to boost of how good you are to all who come across this blog post but I'm writing it as my own self reminder so that I won't give myself reason to forget/deny what you have done for me and how much you love me. I know I can easily get clouded by negative thoughts whenever I'm down or quarrel with you. Or maybe one day, I might even totally forget about you. I don't know what the future holds for both of us. Surely I would pray earnestly and hope that we will have long life on earth together and will forever be each others' buddy, best friends and life time partner by His grace and blessings.

Rie is looking forward to spend her lifetime with you. 43 more days to go. Ganbate. Last but not least, I love you, William.

Love,
Rie

Wedding Stuff - Update 1

I'm more relieved now. As my big day is getting closer, many people around me has been asking various questions like how's preparation, everything booked/set, ready to be Mrs Mok, how is this how is that and more. All sort of before wedding questions all thrown to me, I thought I'm going to transform into a BRIDEZELLA. But really really thank God that He is always faithful. God has been providing both William and I with many blessings. He carry us through all the ups and downs of life. Conflicts, argument and differences are made easy by HIM. When I really look back, I feel so silly for getting nervous and frustrated over many things. Sorry that I am not faithful and relax enough to trust that You are always in control.

With the help of our bridal party, best friends and my beloved husband-to-be, I(we) manage to get things moving a little bit quicker this month. Our target was to get everything done by end of July and enjoy our August (last official month of being free-will individual) by doing simple things but kinda fail now. Most of the major decision has been made and in-line now.

We got our invitation cards printed, prewedding album ready to publish to the whole world to see our plastic looks, bridesmaid dresses ordered, wedding favors purchased, design ideas in mind, and some minor stuff. Current pending now are caterer, cakes and important heads for various department. Target to get it done by 1st week of August. 

To be continue... 

Ministry

I think it is about time to start praying again for Big Daddy to either just drag and drop me in a ministry or He sent someone to pull me in to a ministry so I can start serving again or maybe I should just sign myself into one ministry and start from there. I feel dryness in my walk with Him whenever I'm reminded that I'm not using my gifts from Him. I'm keeping it inside a nice invisible box since I stop serving at YF and Kid's Kingdom.

I found myself misses YF even more now. Whenever I see him share about his youths, pray and go for activities one after another, I really feel like tagging along or go back to serve in YF. I miss all my grown up youths (now most of them are leaders/helpers). Just yesterday, due to one issue with his youth, besides giving my own point of view, I actually had a sleepless night. All those 5W & 1H just keep buzzing me whole night even when I'm asleep. It just haunt me like how programming codes used to haunt me :P 

So, reminder to self : Pray Cherie Pray

Love,

Rie

The day I say "I DO"

Let's keep it short and simple. If you think you need more mini minor details, come and ask me personally :)

As per our normal date nights, we will block our schedule to go for a simple activities together. Couple time :D

He arrived with his Kuma-kuma and I allowed him in. He dressed up pretty well that night. I hid because I felt like I overly dressed. Hehe... Drive out and just stuff our stomachs with good food. The atmosphere around us was very noisy. A company is having their annual dinner there but we enjoyed our steak, seafood and fries despite the cheering and noise from the people around us. Talking about the restaurant, I think I lost my Pandora bracelet there :( The bracelet that my darling won for me at The Curve. Pretty sad when I'm reminded how clumsy I am to loose it...

After the dinner, he drove back to my house, we relaxed and talked at the living hall.
Half way talking, he starts to execute his proposal plan...

Wi : Cherie, there's a wedding invitation for u.
Me : Izzit? Who's wedding?
Wi : U guess :)
Me : (Started giving names of unmarried couples in the church)
(Wi - Shook his head)
Wi : All wrong. Here, check out for yourself.
After checking it out
(Me - Stare at him with a unbelief look; Wi - Still kneeling in proposing position while holding a red box with a blue ring inside.)
Blah blah blah for quite some time and finally a YES from me.
(Reliefwi put the blue ring on his bride-to-be, then shared a tight hug. Tears of joy for me :P)


How do I get my shining ring? Secret until you ask. What else did he do? It is a secret too.... Hahaha....

Yes peeps, I'm engaged with William Mok :) Wedding bells ringing soon. Wait for more updates from Facebook, Twitter, Email, Chatz or here.

Bride to be,
Rie

My Love

Time flies.... My big day is coming soon yet I'm still procrastinating to finished up the post entitled The day I say "I DO".

Sneakpeak of our looks during the pre-wedding shoots

Let's just have a little flashbacks before I continue with my love story post...

Never in my thoughts/imaginations that I'm going to date William Mok. For me, he used to be a guy which I definitely will try not to dealt with. I don't seems to be able to get along well with him. Mainly because of our opposite personalities.

This is how I personally think about William. I can describe him in short as 3S (Smart, Serious and Stubborn). He is smart, he speaks proper English and have a really good memory bank. I used to addressed him as a walking phone book. He can easily remember anyone's mobile phone number, car plate number and etc. Salute him for that. William and I never have much common topics to talk about. His stuff is too alien and far too intelligent for me; mine is a little shallow and less interesting for him. He love to complicates things and I love to simplify almost everything.

Next, when it comes to playing, please don't ever expect William to be gentle on GIRLS. He will NEVER :P Talk about gender equality? Apply it or you don't mention at all. There's no grey area when you're dealing with him. I used to have some nails mark on my hand resulted of fighting with William in the car while Hai Yen is driving. Fighting, late night arguments/debating and months of cold wars are common between us. Be well prepared if anyone tries to debate/argue with him. He has his very solid and logic reason in almost everything he does/say. Not a cincai person for that matter.

Stubborn little chap I would say. Once made up his mind, no one could ever change it. I hate it so much yet I survived being his friend. Need help? Ask from William, if he is willing, he will even go extra miles for you. He keeps his promises and  he is a trustworthy and faithful friend. Not to forget, William love God :) There's many more good stuff in him but I'm not going to list down one by one.

Dearest William, you're truly one of the hardest person I dealt with thus far and you're now soon to be the one I will see every morning beside me on the same bed for the rest of our life together. Our God is truly full of wonders. He works great miracles out of the impossible. Knowing you and now going to pledge our life as ONE  is one of the choices in life that I never/haven't regret making from Day 1 itself. You allow me to be who I am in front of you. I'm glad and thankful that you accept this mischievous, gullible, cheerful, naughty and stubborn little me. Thank you for the love we shared, good and bad times we had, trust, security, tears shed and prayers. I'm looking forward to the days ahead of us. I have faith that we will make a good and happy family together with God's helps. 2 Corinthians 12:9 - But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

"It's not your perfectness that i fell in love with, it was your flaws that brought me in."

I love you, William Mok.

With Love,
Rie
