12 July marks the day we had set aside to celebrate our first month together... It started off with a supposedly-surprise pop-up over at my place - He had planned to catch me in my pyjamas. But too bad, Jerica (despite having clubbed the night before) had woke up early to prepare a surprise powerpoint presentation for him, so his first plan to catch me with messed-up hair, sleepy eyes in my snow white and 7 dwarfs (either that or "pork chop and friends") PJ failed.
Just as i was done bathing and brushing my hair, Rico told me, "Dear, can you open your door for your boyfriend?" ... Oh my goodness, i was so-not-done with dressing up yet! =.=" So his plan kinda worked in a sense? LOL.
Mr Tan appeared with a super red box containing a book "The Not-So-Perfect Man ... Might just be your Mr Right", a bottle containing pills - except there were messages in each of the pills, written by Mr Tan with much patience, patience and more patience, a lovely card with his drawings and another drawing of a couple hugging each other - as though immersed in an indulgent sashay under the stars (or was it my vivid imagination? hahah); those drawings done with much painstaking efforts... Much appreciated, thank you Dearico!
The book was extra meaningful for both of us, as initially i hadn't thought of him as a potential lover for me... But well, as what the book suggests, the not-so-perfect man could jolly well be the Mr Right. =P And the bottle of pills were sweet too! Bet it took alot of his patience to unroll each piece inside the capsules, write on them in a small handwriting, roll them back and then put them in the capsules again... Would I have such patience? Maybe not la! Gosh. Oh, but i did unroll each to read... Patient right! Haaa. Though the messages were mushy, they were really sweet, hehs. Thankkew once again!
Muahahhas. Throughout the whole time he was at my house, I was super shy; i dunno why! I'd blushed all the way to London (it's Jiali and Karen's lingo); I was so scared and was wondering the whole time what was in store for me! hahahas. Funny funny!
And after Jerica showed him his surprise powerpoint, she whipped out her Gucci necklace she'd bought the day before at Paragon (It's her advance birthday gift for herself!)... And asked him to put it on for her. *winks.
Next up was Beach Road, where most army guys go, for their Chilli Mee (which was essentially Pork Ribs Prawn Mee and he knows i super love eating noodles, a whole lot more than rice) which was super nice! =))) And then while i was trying to finish up my mee (he always finishes his way before i do), he went to get FONDUE! Muahaha. Fondue at hawker centre was a first for me! Haa. And it was delicious... Yummy! Dark Chocolates are love. =PPP Their waffles are superb; you should try it for yourself! Better than any others i've ever tried before... Hees. And it's a surprise the ice cream they serve there is actually comparable to ice cream parlours, with sorbet-like flavours!
Indulgent feast thereafter, we went to town for (window) shopping! Wheeeee... We walked around town and Mr Tan saw so many things he wanted but decided it probably wasn't time to splurge without doing proper planning of finances? Now that's what i call MAN - being financially independent and planning for the future. Hee.

Camwhoring at Paragon
By the time we went to find his SBF Coreen to pass my Perth gifts "for her to her", it was like, 7-ish? And throughout the whole time i was there, she kept trying to open the box of the present i got for her, to no avail. LOL! Funny gurl she is. Haa. At around 8-ish, i was chased off, cos both of them ganged up and told me "Food court going to close dy", all the while trying to hoodwink me into believing that we were going to dine at food court.
It was not the case; Dearico had grabbed my hand and brought me to Rakuzen, where we had dined on our very first date! And the surprising thing was, he had reserved the exact table where we had sat on our first date. Amazingly meticulous isn't it. It's really such sweet little things that i'm so wow! over him! Haa.
The food wasn't exactly delicious and Jerica had tried Sukiyaki Beef while the man had ordered for Unagi (again). Never will Jerica order for Sukiyaki again i guess? Both times (first at Nihon Mura and 2nd at Rakuzen) proved that Jerica doesn't quite appreciate the after-taste of Sukiyaki. Velly bad (Very bad). *Tsk tsk. Haaa.
We strolled to my favourite spots, Esplanade and Cavenagh Bridge... Whee! It was like a fairytale coming true! Things that I never thought of happening to me did come true and boy, maybe fairy godmothers do indeed exist? LOL.
Dearico was super tired before long and so, we went off in a cab... The greatest surprise came staring right at my face when i reached home and stepped into my room... ...
There was a bouquet of roses planted on my bed! What an amazing feat! I pretended not to see it and called him to accompany him home. R: "Where are you?"
J: "In my room lor."
R: "On the lights already?"
(Pretending normal when in fact, her heart was all melted at the sight of flowers)
J: "On dy lo. Even on the air con dy... Why?"
MUAHAHAHAS. And I burst out laughing. Hee hee. He had asked Ting ting and my bro to help him with the flowers! How sweet la, seriously. Awwww. I think he must have read many fairytales before! haaha. And yes, gurls do love being treated like princesses. And i was like one that day! =)))
Thanks for making our 1st month celebration such a memorable one!
And this is drawn by him, one of the drawings i feel a great deal for...
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
Never wonder where I am
'Cause I am always by your side...
