Snake Year

Has been lovely so far!
Saturday, we woke up early for last minute spring cleaning of our room, before heading down to mom's place for dinner part 1 then coming back to cheeky's for dinner part 2!
Day 1 and 2 of CNY was of course none other than hoping from one place to another, eating non-stop and cherishing year of getting angbaos! Now I officially have phobia of steamboat!!!
We planned to spend day 3 bringing our bikes for a lil ride, but well, the rain has never been so persistent! And so we spent the whole day at home busy with our wedding preps.


Happy snake year!! (damn, why do I look uglier as the years pass?)

And then came Vday!
We had no plans for it as going anywhere for dinner will be too crowded or overpriced and yes, it was raining the whole day! And so we had a simple, but satisfying XO fishhead bee hoon at clementi for dinner, walked around a little, then decided to head down to River Angbao as the rain stopped.
Nothing spectacular at River Angbao, almost the same stuff every year and because it was Vday, there were soooo many couples along the river, hugging, cuddling and kissing!!!
I remember last year I made a big fuss because cheeky didn't get me any flowers, and even made him promise me at least a stalk of flowers each Vday. Then cheeky got smarter and brought me to see flowers this year. $15 for a pathetic stalk of rose selling outside NTUC??? Crazy!! I can buy so many more things with that money!
Yes, women are ridiculous at times, but we do grow up. Now as husband and wife, there's more to love than just spending that one over-commercialised day together and doing what the market wants us to do. We don't need Vday to express our love for each other and love is much more than satisfying material needs or showing it off in front of the whole world. Love is an unexplainable feeling for that special someone.


Now to my special someone, :)
