Old Spice

This is my fiance’s favorite cologne and the cologne that he has been using ever since he was 14, I think. It’s his dad’s favorite cologne too and that’s where he knew about it.

I just love the smell of this – so mild and sweet. I’ve always preferred milder scents because I have sinusitis. Strong smelling perfumes makes me sneeze and then it gives me runny nose afterward.

I wasn’t familiar about this cologne until I met my fiance’ and I didn’t know actually what his perfume was until we met. I asked him instantly what perfume he’s wearing the first time I smelled it and that’s when I knew everything about it – that it’s a cologne, that he’s been using it for years and he puts it after he shaves.

I tried looking for one at our mall here but unfortunately, I haven’t found one. I’m not going to use it though. I just want to get one because I miss its smell. Well, I can have my son use it but oh well, nada is available here.

Finger Lickin’ Chocolates

Here’s another gift that I received from my fiance’ on my birthday – a box of super delish chocolates! It’s my first time to have tasted such and they were just so yummy!

There were two layers of the chocolates in that box. What you see is only the first layer. Each of the chocolate has different flavor and its name was in the box’s back cover. I forgot to take a photo of that one. Some of the chocolates have fillings while the others have nuts.

I do wonder when I’ll be able to have another box of this chocolates. Paging, BA! LOL.

My Olympus Digital Camera

This is just one among the many birthday gifts that my fiance’ gave me on my birthday last year. His presence already made my day super special but knowing him to be generous and sweet, he filled my day with lotsa gifts too and this is just one of them.

I was really surprised when I saw this. This was the last that I opened as per my fiance’s request. I’ve been wanting to have a digital camera of my own and he made that wish of mine come true.

I like this one because it’s thin and handy. I don’t like the bulky ones. It’s user friendly too. The camera came in with a blue mini bag (the one at the back) that he bought all the way from NC. He already got an idea what to give me before he got here. He can be sneaky at times, you know. (“,)

Daylight Saving Time

DST started today but not in my part of the world but at my fiance’s. They will have to move their clocks once again to an hour. Our time difference used to be thirteen hours but starting today, it will be twelve hours again just like the time we first met. Getting nostalgic here. (“,)

My fiance’ already moved his clock to an hour advance since yesterday to get use to it but I know it will take him a little time to be able to get used to the new time again. He will adjust to the new time just like everybody else in there part of the world.

Kind of strange for me but that’s how they live their life there. And this DST is good for everybody, I believe so.

Engagement Ring

It has been six months now since I got engaged but whenever I look at this picture or look at the ring on my finger, it all seems like yesterday when my BA proposed to me. But he was able to give me this ring the following day already because we still had to look for one.

We searched for jewelry stores and after the fourth store, we finally found this, simple but nice. But I didn’t wear it right then because my BA told me so. Little did I know that he has something in his mind.

We watched a movie after buying the ring and hang out at a coffee shop afterward. That was when he took my hands and then he slid the ring on my finger and take note!… on bended knee! That took me by surprise and I was really nervous too. Whew! But that was indeed memorable! (“,)

A Bug?

My BA was complaining of stomach upset the other day but gladly he was relieved the next day. We both wondered what caused that since he didn’t skip meals and he’s not the type who does so. We thought that it could probably be just gas or acid reflux perhaps but it wasn’t.

Well, whatever it is. We’re just both glad that it’s now gone and my BA isn’t feeling uncomfortable anymore. As he said, it was just probably a bug. What kind of bug, Honey? I do hope it’s not a lady bug. LOL.

Just teasing, Honey! You know me. I do love teasing you a lot. Hee hee.
