Engaged? Why Not? =)

Lately many people have been asking me how could I got engaged in a very young age. The most common question that people ask me is how do you know that he is going to be the one in your life? Are you sure about this?

Well, I have heard tonnes of questions on that. Sometimes it annoys me because I think this is my life, I have my own rights to choose ANY decisions for me. I believe that I'm mature enough to decide whatever I want in my life.

Flashing back to few months ago, My fiance Erick, proposed me during his birthday. It was so surprising that he bought me a ring and proposed me during a special dinner. When I said "yes" to his question, I am very sure that I want to be married to him, however I'm still not sure about the timing. After few times talking about this, I'm very sure that this is the right decision. I'm fine to be married at such a young age.

Many people asked me why I'm so sure that he would be the one in my life because I'm still young, I still may choose other guy which is probably better than him. My answer to their questions has always been:
"After few years spending our time together, I've had many ups and downs. He knows my positive side and negative side, and the most important is we accept each other truly. I believe that as a couple, we have shared many many many things, and we are very open to each other. I also believe that there is no point looking for the "best prince" for my life, looking for a probably better one, because nobody is perfect. Moreover I believe that charm or attractiveness in a guy is very superficial. A guy might seems perfect; smart, charming, successful, gentle. But that is so superficial for me, I may not know whether he has a negative side which doesn't suit me well. For that reason, I have no point in looking for a Mr "better" anymore."

Although there were few of my friends questioned my decision, I am very blessed that my families and my best friends are very supportive towards my decision. This is my life, I make my own decision, I gain my own benefit and I take my own risk.

Thank you so much guys for your love, support and wishes for my wedding.

Love,
Meryl

Spoiling Shopping Experience

Last week my mom came to Singapore and we had so much fun. I always enjoy spending time with my mom whenever I can, she's my mother, my listener and of course my best friend. I have to say that I am truly blessed that I've been given such a good mother. A very motherly, friendly, beautiful and charming mother. I have no words to describe how proud and happy I am to be her daughter.

Anyway, Whenever she's in Singapore, i always gain weight. She loves Singapore's snacks such as popiah, carrot cake, and mee siam. No wonder I would gain weight whenever she's here hehe.

I also would like to share what I just bought few days ago

Love love love this waterfall jacket! It looks gorgeous, and i can wear it anytime! I can wear it when I'm going shopping, having class or simply any occasion in a day :)

a Good Way to Start the Day :)

The sky was so dark this morning that it tempted me to go back to sleep again, unfortunately I can't sleep till too late. You may ask me why, but I also don't know the answer as I'm always wake up at 8 or 9.

I always have breakfast to start my day because it truly energize me for the rest of my day. Not only that, my breakfast should be healthy and fast :)

I'm a chocolate addict, so a cup of hot Milo and oatmeal never fail to start my day :)

Have a great day everybody!

You're the apple to my pie

Currently I'm so obsessed with this song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG7Nujp2YyI

The song sounds sooo sweet and the lyrics are too cute!

You can be the peanut butter to my jelly
You can be the butterflies I feel in my belly
You can be the captain and I can be your first mate
You can be the chills that I feel on our first date

You can be the hero and I can be your side kick
You can be the tear that I cry if we ever split
You can be the rain from the cloud when it's stormin'
Or you can be the sun when it shines in the mornin'

Don't know if I could ever be
Without you cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need

Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry

Cause your the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two

We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two

This is Why I Love Mr Sandler's Movie

Hey guys,
What is your favorite movie? :)

Let me share about my favorite movie.
I'm not a movie addict person, but most of favorite movies are more to romantic comedy or any movie that lures me with its beautiful scenery. Here are some of my favorite movies of all time: A Walk to Remember, Chasing Liberty, The Phantom of the Opera, Mr Deeds and 50 first dates.

Adam Sandler is one of my favorite actor. Well he is certainly not the most handsome actor, but I like his character whenever he act in the movies, I love his innocent expression and the way he speaks. Adam's movies are not only comedies, but the movies also have beautiful meaning inside.

The first time I fell in love with his movie was because of 50 first dates. The idea behind the movie is amazing, it is funny and yet truly romantic.
After watching this movie, I began to look for Sandler's other movies. Out of Happy Madison's 25 movies, I've watched 17 movies. :)
The reason why I fell in love with his movies is that he always added "family factor" inside the movie. He often emphasize the importance of friendship, family and love. Although some of his movies are a little bit racist, he can always bring up jokes that don't hurt that particular races. Moreover, the ending of the movies always have a beautiful meaning.

Here are some of my favorite movies which acted by Adam Sandler:






Have a great weekend guys!

Hubalicious with Chef Bobby Chinn :)

Hello guys,

I'm so happy that I have the opportunity to meet celebrity chef Bobby Chinn. Usually, I only watch him cooking in Discovery Travel and Adventure Channel. I like the way he cooks on TV, he is unique because while cooking, he loves to tell jokes and funny stuffs. It is such a rare moment that I got a chance to meet him in person.

Here are some photos taken during the event:


In the event, Bobby prepared an appetizer for the audience. It was a middle east appetizer. The taste was very unique, I have never tasted such appetizer before. The appetizer was made from pomegranate, eggplant and walnut. It was soft, creamy and yet crunchy at the same time.
Other than the appetizer, the other dishes were prepared by the hotel's chef.



The main dish was grilled lamb with Egyptian herb. The Egyptian herb tasted like briyani.


Finally, this was the dessert:


After having 3 course dinner, we got the chance to take a picture with Bobby and also took an autograph of him :)


It was a very pleasurable moment to meet him in person. He was funny, lively and such a great chef indeed :)

xoxo,
Meryl
