Happy Anniversary!


Look, a cheesy couple!

Few of you may know that Justin and I celebrated our one year anniversary on January 2! We’d been unofficially going out for several months, but it was on that fateful January day that he finally (and I mean finally) asked me to be his girlfriend. (He’d already asked before, but I said let’s go out first and see haha. Woo! Courtship phase!)

Last year we went to a fancy expensive buffet restaurant that cost an arm and a leg to go to. It was very touching because I like being spoiled! But this year we went a completely different tack. I had work, so we decided to have a picnic after my shift. Not a full-on picnic with pies and cooking, mind you. It was more like ‘Let’s stop at the grocery and buy food!’ Because let’s face it. I cannot cook!

I told him the budget was $30 (because this year I was paying, yay!), but I cannot resist food, and we spent around $45 instead. This is still not even half of what he paid for last year’s special dinner, so I cannot complain. Besides I was the one grabbing food, so I could not blame him at all for my inability to be thrifty.


So fatty and yum!

This was our meagre picnic lunch! Plus fish and chips because we’re true Kiwis now, haha!

It was basically Mammoth iced coffee (it is so delicious! I hate coffee, but it is so good!), Sara Lee – my obsession, Tim Tams (his choice) as well as some Cadbury bars.

I am not sure how this amounted to around $45, but it was our anniversary, so I’m going to sweat the small stuff. :D



This is Justin! His outfit completely matches my hair, don’t you think?! I just noticed it now, to be honest… I should probably pay more attention to my boyfriend, heehee.


Justin likes to steal kisses in front of the camera. Somehow it’s better this way because he has a derpy camera smile! He actually has a really cute authentic smile especially with his dimples, but somehow when he’s in front of a camera, it turns out like BLERGH.


Look at a happy me! :D You can tell I’m very happy to have spent a year with this man because I have a scrunched up eye smile. You know, squinted eye smiles are a sign of authentic happiness! This I know from... experience! Hihi~

In retrospect, it would have been cheaper to go to a restaurant, but there's something sweet about lazing about in the park with your love, eating sweets and just talking. 

Okay, that’s it for now. :D


I just wanted to share my special day with you. I hope it didn’t make you guys uncomfortable or annoyed. I just wanted to share my joy~

Stay sweet,

  1. How cute :). I would choose picnic over a restaurant anytime, but our wedding anniversary is in march and the weather over here is not very picnic-friendly around then :P

  2. Belated Happy Anniversary!! Contrats for the year that passed! And I'm so jealous of the food you guys ate, haha! I agree with the whole, "guys should court girls still" thing. I'm not one to jump into a relationship without going out and knowing them better first ;) And yes, every girl wants to be spoiled as well. Cannot deny that >:P heehee~
