Don't have to wait for that perfect moment, MAKE the MOMENT Perfect.

It was night time after dinner and we just arrived in Singapore from Johor Bahru, Feeling a sense of relief finally reached i decided to have a bottle of his favorite beer next to the window over looking the river, live band music from the bars and restaurant in the opposite could be heard and the sound of exciting screams from the sling shot at Clarke Quay, just like any other night here.

M and i were just having random chats and then out of the blue he pulled out a small red heart shaped ring box, i was on a single black leather sofa and he was siting on the floor next to the me leaning on the window, level wise as if he was kneeling down( the space is really tight at this position lol). As i went into shock and sparkling eyes and said "What?!" he already open the box and i said "Now?!" haha, by this time i have no clue what he was saying, my vision had took over my hearing if you know what i mean, i don't recall a thing lol.

It was just an ordinary day, our next diving vacation is just a week away and he could have done it there but didn't, our first ever vacation with my family is two months away (which i planned for his birthday) he could have done it there, but didn't. Our 1st anniversary where we first met is in November, he could have done it then , and Christmas was the time we got together... so many auspicious memorable special dates he could have popped the question but didn't and instead he made an ordinary day into one of the most memorable moments of my life.
