Mark the Paper Anniversary

It our 1st year wedding anniversary. As Nick has a packed schedule for school and homework. I guess its not a good idea to plan for a short trip overseas. I told Nick I will be doing the planing and organizing our 1st year anniversary and he will do for next year! :P Therefore I set the standard! hee hee hee! :P

There are thoughts of going batam for spa, but the traveling would take some time and Nick has a Sunday class. I search for some local stuff...hahaha... I have a package from Body Contour and we been to its Roxy Sq outlet. They have couple room and we enjoy the jacuzzi!


About 1 month back, I did an online reservation for a room at Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel. Wrote there its our 1st year wedding anniversary... I was hoping some freebie from the hotel... hahah. I made the couple room reservation for spa too. I told Nick I have arranged programme for the day.

There are a few times he tried to trick me into telling him what plan I have. But my lips are tight. There's once he told me he made a reservation for dinner and paid... I almost told him where I have planned. But I realize he is trying to dig info. Hahahah

On Friday evening we joined our friends for a steamboat at Nelson's house. We have fun standing grilling n steam boating! Hahaha... We say it shall be an annual event and next year hopefully will be at our new place.

On Sat morning, I wake Nick up for work. He say he din feel like going office, got hang over from previous nite drinking but he say how tired he is for work every day...hahah... He decided to go for work, "give u time to prepare mar", he said.

I arranged to meet him at his work place and reveal to him that we are going for spa! Hahaha... I ask him if he wants to know the programme of the day? He say "No... surprise mar".

We reached Body Contour at Mercure Roxy and while waiting for the room. Nick is anxious about knowing where we are going after that... Ichy to know lei.... hahah... I reveal the plan of the day.

We enjoyed the body massage, scrub and jacuzzi. After which, we checked into the room in the hotel and eat the pastries we bought and the fruits provided by the hotel. Ya, the hotel wrote me an email the day before to inform that free fruit platter provided for anniversary... hmmm that's all? They added, other request at cost. Hahaha... Ok lar, I got the room at a discount rate.

We rest for a while, flipping the TV channels and went for a dip in the swimming pool. Only me dip. Nick was enjoying the free beer from the hotel. We were feeling hungry and I wanted to eat tepanyaki. We walked over to Marine Parade and eat Saka Sushi... After that we went to border where Nick get himself a book and I get my free reading :P. We bought some tibites and head back to the room. I brought a red wine from home and we get to enjoy the red wine and tibites after dinner.

We went to work on Monday. I was having meeting from morning till 11am. Right after I reach my desk, there is a call from a col whom I do not know. She mentioned that there is a flower for me. Surprise abt it, I went to meet her at her level. The delivery guy send the flower to another floor and she received on my behalf. Hahahaha... I thank her and she turn to me and say "Happy Anniversary" :P It was all written on the card.

It a surprise bouquet of yam rose. Its our wedding flower. Last year we had this flower as our wedding deco for the solemnization table and I din get to really admire or keep the flower due to the "gan cheong" here and there situation towards the end of the banquet. I did mentioned once that it would be great to get yam rose. Nick remembered and he order the bouquet from the same florist this year.

I think I really like purple. See the picture! How the yam rose matches our new bed sheet cover! Hahaha.... I also got to realize the match! This bed sheet is newly bought for our new bed.
We agreed to meet at my work place after work to go Tok Le, Space at my humble house for dinner. He gave me a buzz at 6.45 to inform that he will be reaching by 7. As I walking towards the meeting place. I heard a voice "hello", I turn and saw him. He was holding a Bonia paper bag. Hee hee.... that must be my present rite. He originally intend to hide that gift and proceed back to the car before meeting me. I was a bit early and so zun he was just behind... I told him, its the thought that count. Hahaha... Its a Bonia card holder cum wallet.


We parked the car at the super expensive car park at esplande, din know per entry was 5+... *faint. Then just nice, Space at my humble house is closed for dun know what cleaning. So change of plan. We went to the open air food place. Always wanted to try the food there. We ordered the "happy pot" bbq. Not bad thou, but I think I eat too much meat! Hahaha...

The evening ended with a leisure walk along the esplanade river.
