I guess a lot of people has watched the video of a guy proposing to his girlfriend by having his friends and family members ad-libbing to Bruno Mars 'Marry you'.
Then yesterday the BFF sent me a picture of a cat used to to bring a ring for, I assume, a marriage proposal. Cute right, the cat? <3
Notice that ring around the collar? But for all you know, it just might be for safekeeping? Probably not cause who would keep a ring around their cat's collar right? So I guess it is for a marriage proposal.
I have never really thought about being proposed to. Guess I'm practical for a lot of aspects in my life or it could be that I was pretty much alone for most of my life to actually think or daydream about getting a boyfriend or marrying someone. So now that marriage is in the works, I guess I am still in the denial mode. I really find it hard to believe sometimes that someone actually wants me. I am flummoxed. (Yay! Can insert this word here. 'Flummox' is one of my favourite English words!)
By right, we shouldn't be following the Westerner's ways of proposing. Awal Ashaari got flaked recently for going down on his knees on a Malaysian TV channel to propose to his girlfriend (although I think he went through the proper way of asking for Scha's hand before he went down on his knees). It's still pretty romantic though. Brought tears to my eyes. But guess since we are Malays, we should go through the proper channel to get married i.e. through the parents. Hantar rombongan untuk merisik. Like formally asking for the hand in marriage.
I told Oji-san that I don't wanna have any engagement ceremony or whatever. No need to doll myself up or have a mini hantarans exchange. Let's save that for the real thing. >.< But now that I have watched countless proposal videos, it sure is nice to have a surprise proposal suddenly happening to me. Knowing Oji-san though, he'll not be bothered to rack his brains out for this. Guess I have to wait for his parents to come over to my house.
Gosh. By the way, just realised that 'marry' rhymes with 'scary' O.O
