Proposal on an ipad

Posted by dawn On March - 30 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

Read something very interesting today and would like to share it here.

A guy proposed to his girlfriend on an ipad.

I read it on http://geekapolis.fooyoh.com where this person wrote:

And by iPad 2 we mean he engraved "Will you marry me?" on the back of the device. Jordan C wrote in to 9to5Mac to share his wedding proposal story:

I just wanted to share my excitement for Apple’s latest magical device bringing a little magic into my life! I stayed up all night to order my iPad with the inscription “Will You Marry Me?” Received mine this Monday, Took my then-girlfriend, Jessica, up to the National Redwood Forrest in Northern CA. After having to cross a river on a downed Redwood and dealing with the intermittent rain I found the largest tree in the world I kneeled down and gave it my best! Whether it was something I said or “Apple’s Magic” in action she gushed and said YES, now give me my iPad!!

Lucky girl. She gets the diamond ring, AND she gets to play Angry Birds for the rest of her iPad 2′s life.

 

Reading this made me smile, hope it made you smile too :)

Went to Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe in Mid Valley last Friday to celebrate a colleague’s farewell.

 

I have always wanted to go as the interior looks really nice but was always after good food instead of nice place so did not really bothered to try. Finally went there and even the glasses used were very nice. Basically a very girlish place with flowers and all things sweet :)

 

I like it and the food was not bad too. But I did not bother having any expectations. I had Grilled Black Pepper Chicken Chop.

Later, we ordered potato wedges, which as good. Normal. And fried chicken, which was not so good as it didn’t look fresh. Cooked but reddish inside.

 

Wouldn’t mind going back just for fun but to go back just for the food, not really…

 

Anyway, the farewell was for this noisy girl Geline.

Now I won’t have someone who’s noisier than me at the office :(

So long…

Farewell…

We will all miss you!

The boyfriend

It was raining heavily this morning when my alarm rang at 6am. I never liked to get up from my bed on a rainy day. I just love the sound raindrops falling on the roof. It’s my lullaby. Naturally with eyes barely opened, I picked up my phone to reset my alarm to 6.25am, snuggled under my quilt, hug my favourite pillow, took a deep breath and sunk my cheeks unto the pillow. Mmm…nice.

 

When the alarm went off again at 6.25, I still wished I didn’t have to wake up for work. Saw a good morning message from the boyfriend saying it’s raining and he wants to sleep. Here goes the conversation:

 

The boyfriend: Morning darl. Damn it’s raining! I want to sleep!!!

Me: I want to stay in bed…morning…hugss

The boyfriend: Is there a public holiday we don’t know about today?

Me: LOL

The boyfriend: Can I bring my quilt to work?

Me: Can you please call my boss and tell him I can’t go to work coz I’m allergic to rain?

The boyfriend: Oh shit! You too???!!!

 

Welcome to my life. Everyday there are some silly conversations going on :p

Entertainment at Work

This promotion caught my eye when it was sent to my work mail. No not because of the place or the food but:

 

“A SLICE OF CAKES”

 

“PAN SEALED SCALLOP”?

 

Hmm…Unacceptable mistake for an advertisement no?

A little entertainment on my work day though.

The Sneeze

At work…

Me: *aHcHOO!*

The boss: Bless you.

Me: Thanks

The boss: Do you know that every time you sneeze, you lose ten brain cells?

Me: Hmm…Then I must be really stupid. LOL!

 

On the other hand when I start thinking about it, since I have been sneezing so much all my life (sensitive nose) and am still not stupid yet (I hope). I must have a lot of brain cells :p
