~Time of My Life~

The Sunday worship team was having rehearsal as usual...Nothing unusual on that day..except everyone really poured out the heart to God for all the practices to make Church of Praise 25th Anniversary a success. Well, one more day to go...everyone was pretty excited especially those who has grow together with the church.

As for me and Jeremy,nothing unusual except we went to church earlier to practice. Alright, songs after songs, praise and worship..

Then, the song Glow came...all musicians were playing the intro..well, a usual I looked at the ground before the 1st verse starts...I heard everyone was screaming. As usual, before I even lift up my head to see what was going on, Brother Ooi shook my shoulder and cried out,"PeiPei, PeiPei..look..look!!!".

"What..what??", I asked.

He replied,"Look at the screen!".

Oh my God!!!!!! I saw "Pei Pei, will you marry me" on the screen!!!

I was surprised..but hey the first thought that came to my mind was..this is certainly a prank! Must be one that set up by Joel to trick his brother. I snared at Jeremy then. Everyone was still shouting and sneering away.

Jeremy just took off his guitar...Oh Oh my heart always leaped out! He walked towards me...Someone please slap me to wake me up! I asked Wai Ching, "Isthis a real world or am I just dreaming?". Deep down in my heart I know it was real when he started walking towards me. I was caught of not knowing anything..

As he draw closer and closer, finally he was just right in front of me. I did not know what to say but to look at him with eyes filled with tears. The man I love was standing right in front of me and he was holding a box. I can see how nervous he was. Then the moment came.

He smiled at me and the next minute he was down on his bended knee. He looked at me and said,"I have decided to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me". Right at that second, I feel like I was the happiest girl on earth. To have a man you love so much to say proposed in such a way. Deep in my heart, I wanted to shout,"I do!!I do". Instead, I said I do softly as I was very shy. Everyone was cheering at us. He took a ring out from the box.

Gosh, I have never seen him so nervous before when he was trying to fit the ring onto my finger. His hands were shaking. Well, I did something everyone laughed even until today. Instead of letting him guiding my finger towards the ring,I helped him to wear the ring on my finger instead. All the choir members were laughing. And the next minute before I realized, I am engaged to the person I love so much, Jeremy Loh.

Today, at this moment I always smiled remembering that moment. It all seemed so fresh yet alive in my conscious mind. If I am dreaming, please do not wake me up as I want to stay in that dream.

I just want to tell him how thankful and blessed I am to be with him. Knowing that our relationship is one step closer to marriage. Not forgetting God who has blessed our relationship tremendously, Angela, my sponsor. The ring commentor, Elijah & James. The advisor, Julia and all the other worship and choir members. It has been a God's blessing to have my wonderful brothers and sisters as my witness of that unforgettable day! Thank you and may we continue to serve the Lord with all our heart and soul.

I love you guys. I love you Jeremy!!
