Super Major Hiccups

Some major hiccups happened and I am still in the midst of shock.

Raymond just informed me that the function room at his parents’ condo had been booked! Previously, he told me that they only allow the residents to book the place one month before, however, when he tried to book on the 24th Apr, it was already booked! I thought I was the only kiasu one!

So now, we have to look for another place. My campmates suggested the function rooms at Safra. However, none of them are easy accessible. The only place I can think of are the function rooms at the community centres, i.e. the one behind Flora’s house. Raymond did commented that the place lack ambience.

Well, I don’t think I have much choice right. Anyway, the function room may have projector and screen, which I do not need to rent if they really have. I think I will visit the place with Raymond to see if the place is possible. Meanwhile, I welcome any suggestion for places which is accessible to all our friends.

I think I need to confirm the friends who are turning out for the proposal. Like what was mentioned in the briefing, I need at least 25 friends to present the roses. Joo had just told me she will be on standby on 24 May. I have to keep my fingers crossed. Jayven also has flight that day and can only make it in the afternoon.

Tomorrow will be the day I finally make my decision to leave the company. This may not be a good time to pop the question but, 24th May is such a good day where the numbers met, if you know what I mean, i.e. 75 roses + 24 roses = 99 roses…

I think my idea is more or less stone casted and what is left is all the loose ends to tie. Got to find another place for the proposal and confirm the number of people attending to reach 25. So please give me feedbacks on the people that you think Flora will be happy to see but I’ve forgotten to call.

Hope all things goes smoothly from here…

  1. Me me me!!! *raises hand*

    With regard to the venue, you might wanna consider booking a nice cafe, say, The Oliv. You don't need to arrange for catering separately, AND the ambience is quite acceptable : )

    It's almost like you're proposing at a sidewalk cafe in New York, the way it's decorated :P You will hafta forego the projector screen though...

    I may have an alternative for you if you're super keen on a condo recreation room. Lemme look into this. I'll be in touch with you.
