::older::matured::engaged::

apart from my long weekend which ended almost close to perfection, something major had also happened in my life that fateful night now that i am another year older. i am engaged! *loud applause* now i am officially known as Daniel Lim's future wife-to-be, meaning fiancee, meaning we are betrothed. *PrincessWylyn bows* i am happy, excited and proud, i love him so much, and i dun care about what other people have to say. we may be young, but we've come a long way, in a longer relationship than most couples my age, and this engagement couldn't come any more timely. three and a half years into our relationship, and we're maturing into young adults, responsible and accountable to our families, and most importantly to one another. i received a message from him this morning which sent tears trickling down again. it read,

A promise of marriage i make to you.
To wed with you and live with you.
May our engagement be filled with love, happiness and trust.
Always will i love you dear. :)

according to ROM there is no legal provision for engagement. in the context of marriage, engagement is a promise to marry made between two individuals. and so the announcement was made, for all to witness, this promise which we will carry, until the day we say 'i do'.
