Made of daydreams

Introducing my beautiful sister, Esther. Do we look alike?

These are some pics our bro took of us at our wedding gig last Saturday.
I wore my fairy-tale dress out, hope you're not bored looking at it yet!
Although the wedding reception was small,
it was really cozy and decorated very nicely with beautiful flowers and candles.
Attending all these weddings back to back
has certainly given me a few ideas for my own big day ♥

I've always been daydreaming of how my wedding would be like!
My dream is to have a smallish garden wedding for the exchanging of vows
and a dinner party afterwards with lovely, jazzy music and dancing under the stars.
Not sure how my guests will react to having the wedding outdoors
with the hot tropical climate we face around here!
But still it's fun to daydream.
And it doesn't end there, there are the wedding photos to think about,
the bridal gown, the wedding favors, the invitation cards and so much more!

Do you daydream about your big day too? What is your dream wedding?
Or if you've already had your dream wedding, I'll love to hear the special bits ♥

10 things...

Along with all these awards, I'm supposed to share a few facts about myself
but I thought I'll change it up a little.
As today's our 2 years and 3 months anniversary,
I thought it will be perfect for me to share 10 things about the bf and me!

1. The first time we watched a movie together alone was to see a really lame movie called " The Sinking of Japan". We were not a couple yet at that time but he was sneaking puppy eyed looks at me throughout the entire movie.

2. Bf's birthday is on the 11th of Sept, yes, on 911.

3. The catalyst for our relationship was a trip to Singapore with some mutual friends. I did not realize it then but somehow we got so close during that trip that when we came back, we couldn't get through a day without talking to each other.

4. During one of those phone calls, he told me of his feelings for me and I reciprocated. Bf told me the next day that he was so thrilled that he did not sleep a wink that night.

5. After we first got together, one of the very first thing bf gave me was a portrait he drew of me. And with it, a poem that he wrote just for me.

6. For our first month anniversary, bf made a little box filled with wishes and dreams that he would like to do with me. Some of the wishes/dreams have came true such as touring Europe together and walking on sandy beaches feeling the waves touching our feet.

7. Some have not come true yet. For example, we haven't watch both sunrise and sunset together yet.

8. Nor have we decorate a Christmas tree together yet. I can't wait for that day to come!

9. Although bf can't/don't like to dance, he arranged for a night out in Edinburgh with his friends when I was there because I told him I wanted to go dancing in a foreign place.

10. Bf surprised me at the Stansted airport when I landed in London for our Eurotrip last June. It was the sweetest feeling when he appeared out of nowhere and hugged me for the first time in 9 months.

Sorry for all the mushy-ness in this post,
it's only one more month before the bf comes home! So excited!!

Here are some pictures of us in beautiful Venice last June

Oh, how I miss the beautiful sunset in Venice!!

Wheee, only 4 more days to my birthday!
Am excited cos I'll be hosting my very first blog giveaway!!
So be sure to come back soon:)

Poncho

It's been raining a lot these couple of days,
so I had an excuse to take out my long abandoned poncho for a spin last Sunday.
It feels good when you rediscover and wear something that you haven't for a long long time!

The ring and necklace are from F21 and the earrings are from Primark .
Thank you to my lovely brother who took all these pics:)

A lot of you have been asking where I got my angel wings ring below.
It's from this local online store called soakrepublic.
They have the loveliest things, you definitely can go crazy there like I did!

p.s. Princess Livia is having her first giveaway here. Do check her amazing blog out!

Love after Love

Long ago, men went to sea, and women waited for them, standing on the edge of the water, scanning the horizon for the tiny ship. Now I wait for Henry. He vanishes unwillingly, without warning. I wait for him. Each moment that I wait feels like a year, an eternity. Each moment is as slow and transparent as glass. Through each moment I can see infinite moments lined up, waiting. Why has he gone where I cannot follow?

-The Time Traveler's Wife

If I had wings, I would fly right this very instant
to wherever you may be.
For I do not want to waste another second, another minute,
another hour, another day without having you by my side.

I have read the book nearly a year ago and last Friday, finally I saw the movie.
Although it's by no means perfect, I still like it and shed a tear or two at the end.
Has any of you seen the movie or read the book? Did you like it?
