Big time..... I am engaged~!!

Sorry Everyone. I have been so busy with moving to Dubai, plus no private internet yet. So I have been disappeared for big while. So I will write in quite briefly.

--According to the ticket leavening to Dubai was on Tue.8 June 2010. The week before, after I have received the confirmation of ticket and visa. I had been busy with preparing for the Good bye party on coming Saturday (5Jun10). I cleaned the house, packed the bag, made shopping things for dubai..(a lot of things) etc. I was quite tired and nervous. My feeling was not good, up-down-moody-cranky because this is my first time that I would go explore myself in a strange place where I wouldn't know: What would happen, I don't know no nobody(actually I have 3friends here but they might work, so I shouldn't rely on them for this thing), Never been there, Never heard the experiences from persons who have been there, how apartment will be like, whom would I be sharing apartment with…… etc. This thoughts were something that "NO ANSWER", and kept running around in my mind. It was kind of quite annoying feelings. Don't know what should I be happy or not; like should I be happy with 'uncertain' thing that definitely would happen very soon? May be I was not really made up my mind? Well…. Anyway,
Tue-Wed-Thu. I had to getting ready for Friday Evening after Raul's work-go to have dinner out with Raul for the one last time. And 'Good bye party' would be on Saturday(05jun), and on Sunday lunch(06jun) Me-Raul with all the Linaje would come for Lunch together. I was very impressed when Raul told me that ALL of his Family would come for me. So I felt so good that I received supports from them. And on Monday(07Jun) after Raul's work, we would go to stay in the hotel where closes to Barcelona airport. So at least we would have time for the morning together. Raul scarified his tiring to come to stay hotel in Barcelona-and by the EARLY morning drive home and Back To Work (??!!) And me- Getting ready for go to airport and check in(08Jun). I would be flying with Iberia to Nice, France and I would fly from there to Dubai with Emirates. …….So that is the plan!


So, The whole plan for my good bye started on Friday evening's dinner with Raul. We went to a restaurant where I really like its service. When we arrived to the restaurant, we got a table that we were there for the first time! It was so coincident. We ordered food, starters-Main…. It was really nice. there were not big portions however decorated very nice. So I enjoyed so much. For the desert I didn't think that I could finish, so I shared the ice-cream with him. It was great that they actually get the desert into small portion for us. When I got my ice-cream cup, It was a little box put next to my ice-cream. I thought It might be something that I could add it on the top of the ice-cream. The box I meant, It was a white ceramic covered something, looks like it might be sugar inside, very small. However, Raul didn't have one on his side of his portion. So I waited when he would be served the box. Raul asked me to start the ice-cream and asked me what was in the box. "Of course, sugar or may be chocolate chip or something….I thought. I opened it. I found a pink hello kitty box inside. I was a bit surprised, what is it?. I opened it and I found a black cloth covered something. I unwrapped it…… " There were 2 rings" !!!!! Oh My oh my god…. Raul took them away from me straight away from my hand and got up from his chair. And he kneeled in fro of me…. When I knew that was happening; My tears came out along with laugh of happiness. "Is it really happening?!" I thought. Raul, a person who doesn't believe in these kind of things and I never expect he would do this. Now he was kneeling in front of me and putting my ring on my finger. It was so shocked. I couldn't even swallow my saliva. Man,….. nothing really can describe on this. We got complimentary cava(champagne) from restaurant. It was such a night!! I never ever thought that I would experience this moment in my life. If this was a video, I would kept play again, again and again... It was a great moment in my life.



……………….Later on, we left a restaurant about 11pm so I expect that we would get straight back home as normal. However, Raul asked me to go to Plaza Forum to grab another drink for this celebration. It was a bit strange that he asked me that. Because He mentioned earlier that he was tired. But anyway,… "why not, just one drink. Then tomorrow we will prepare for my good bye party later." I thought. He took me to walking to the direction of the bar "Manhattan" where we hardly go there and the last time was last year! When I got that thought, so I just suggested him to go for the last time before I would leave Spain. When I entered to the bar, the bartender just went to turn off the light of the basement area table. I just walked in and tried to get the bartender to ask for a drink. But Raul push me to the basement table area where was dark. I thought, Hey I am going to order some drink. But before I was about to say this, I was push to the stairs case of the basement area. And suddenly ……. "SURPRISED!" …….Everyone screamed once the light was turn on!!! Oo o hh…. My y y … G o dd d dd ……!! I was in shocked again…… Big time!! I couldn't even breath, my hands was shaking and naturally covered my mouth which was widely open. And My tears coming through non-stop. There was Fernando, Rut, Ester-Alex, Rocio-her bf, Ana, Maria Antonetta, Kik, Oscar, Marta, David…etc. Everyone came to hug me. I even didn't know what I was doing I just kissed everyone one time and hug tightly. Because at that moment I really needed hugs, big ones. I was so much in shocked! Rut came to me to give me a magic red Emirate hat that she made. She just couldn't help but crying. And that didn't help me to stop crying either. It was so great and amazing night! Raul had been organizing about this without me knowing. Wow, he really gave me a big time! I got presents from everyone and cards. I was so happy more than I can say. It meant some how that the party that I tried to organize was a fake, all my energy to clean the house, organizing schedule… But you know what, It was more than worth it. This was greater that I could imagine. And because we already celebrated, so me and Raul could chill out on Saturday, which was good. Friday night I drank wine(quite a lot) plus drinking Whiskey, so in the morning I got an headache, hang over!! Man, I am getting old!!! As the result, I missed my Last Saturday morning Breakfast in the fresh market!!! It was too bad. but well…. I got a great night last night, so that could make it equal! je je je je…. We went for lunch at the restaurant on Savinosa beach, with Pealla and Black rice with Rut, her friends, Fernando and Joan. It was great lunch. Great that I could come to this beach before I left. Too bad that I was still hang over headache, so we went back home to get some more sleep after lunch!! Damn! And we made our night like there was nothing special…. like nothing happen, like such a normal night. I didn't actually need any more special activities. All I need was, just a normal private night with Raul as the way we had spent time together through the past years. This is already special for me.
On Sunday, the plan that we made was still on. The lunch at L'aleixa with "The Linaje". All of Linaje came for me!! It was so impressed!! Only one didn't come….. One who even lived with me the whole year in the same apartment. I was very disappointed and angry in the same time and will never understand this. What a short noticed(Sat. night, just a night before). But anyway, It was great enough to have, to feel supports from "The Linaje". A great family which I am actually in it!! I am very happy that I am included to this family. And after lunch we went to Nick-Silvia's place for the last time…. I really like this family, because they speak English so I had spent time many times, did many activities with them. It was great.

This is all about my 'BIG TIME' before I left Tarragona, Spain. I will back to write it more about 'My departure' from Spain to Dubai. Hope I would have some a bit time to write it. As you know, Now I am in Dubai already. And I didn't have the internet access in my Bed room. So thing gets a bit difficult. Plus I had to go to Introduction training every day since I've arrived…. I will try to update more very soon….. Please Please please…. leave some comment here if you can. So I know that there is someone actually read my blog. So I will have more energy to write. Thank you.
