Future Plans
One of the earliest photos of me when i can walk and stand was one at the beach in my bathing suit with sand all over my face, arms and legs. I think i've a natural inclination towards the sea. A fascination with the constant crashing of waves against the shore; with the seabreeze playing with my hair. Since my brother's recent proposal to his girlfriend was on a yacht, he has already stolen one possible avenue for my future ideal proposal fantasies. hurrhurr. I think the idea of a yacht has a romantic factor to it. You know, all alone out in the sea kind of thing. Only with people that you want to be with. So i've come to a conclusion that one of my fantasy's for my future engagement party (that would be held of course, in celebration of my future engagement) should be held on a yacht. And not any kind of yacht i must say. But something like the one below.
Photo taken from http://www.marinebookings.com/tahnee/I'll then invite my closest friends and their partners for a night out (so it's going to be a 24 hours rental). Ideally, this engagement party wouldn't be paid solely by me but by my fiance. haha. It will be all fun and festivities, champagne popping, music blasting with dancing all the way into the night.
A girl can only dream.
I'm an old romantic soul housed in a young body. I don't think i can ever be happy with settling with an unromantic partner. And hopefully, my future fiance would be so sweet as to plan everything so perfect and sweep me off my feet. You know the way in which you would think that you're the luckiest person in the world kind of way and everyone else envious of your romantic everlasting relationship.
It's definitely a bummer that most Singaporean guys are naturally unromantic. I know that this is definitely a generalisation. But for the stereotype that Singaporeans tend to propose to their girlfriends by bringing up the idea to plan and buy a hdb flat together is all too true. Some can say that it's because of how the Singaporean society is structured or how the government has made the system to be that way that everyone has to plan. However i beg to differ. I mean once a guy knows in his heart that he only wants to be with that girl forever then he should propose prior to suggestion of buying a hdb flat. Being engaged for a few years prior to getting married isn't a big deal if the parties involved are emotionally attached and believe in being with each other for eternity. This method in my opinion is favourable for both the girl and the guy. Why? This is because the romance and surprise factor is kept intact for the girl as well as the guy gets to 'reserve' the girl and increases his chances of tying the knot with her.
I know i'm a dreamer. But how boring would life be if we don't dream?
Now only for me, to meet my perfect guy.
Like how reality is, chances are slim. haha.
Why is life always so difficult?
