...we'll be celebrating our 7th Wedding Anniversary (this year also mark's our 10th year of 'exclusivity').
Reflecting on our journey thus far makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. We continue to enjoy a wonderful friendship, an even better marriage through ups and downs, support each other's endeavours and most importantly, kindness and love. That is not to say that we agree with each other all the time!
Here're some highlights of our lives so far, in dot point:
Met for the first time at the midnight premier of 'Star Wars I' in May 1999
Started dating in January 2000 and moved in together within months. Our first overseas holiday to New Zealand when I learnt to snow ski!
Long distance relationship in 2001 when I moved back to Singapore upon completion of degree. Bought our first home together later that year
Obtained my Aust PR in February 2002 and secured full-time employment in April
I started on a new job in March 2003 and was married in August 2003. Honeymoon in the South Island of New Zealand and the construction of our new home commenced in October
Sold our first home in January 2004 (which we very nearly paid off its mortgage in full) and moved into our newly constructed home in April. Celebrated our 1st Wedding Anniversary
Our 'addiction' for snow skiing and New Zealand (both the North and South Islands) saw us returning bi-annually / annually from 2005 - 2007 + annual trips back to Singapore to visit family (yes at least 2 international holidays annually!)
2008 was pretty much the same - worked hard and played harder!
Paid off the mortgage of our home in December 2009
I obtained my driver's licence (about time!) and will be celebrating our 7th Wedding Anniversary
- That we continue to enjoy and love each other's company while working hard, undergoing many of life's unpredictabilities and planning for annual vacations
- That we will take 12 months off work in three year's time for our 'big' holiday to Europe / Caanda - why wait till we are near retirement to do that?!
- That our families and dear friends continue to be healthy and happy
