My Mermaid Shirley - How I Manage to Fish Her :-)

King Nien's version
My Mermaid Shirley - How I Manage to Fish Her :-)

It all started when I was in my first year studying in University of Technology Malaysia (UTM). I looked down from above, this girl holding an umbrella, shadowing herself from the hot sun, swayingly along the pavement towards the library. Immediately when I lay my eyes on her, eventhough from afar, I knew it was love at the first sight. When she disappears from my sight, I silently pray to the Lord in my heart so that I may see her again.

I guess Lord really hear my prayer when I saw this beautiful angel again - in the church, the Lord's house! I couldn't believe my luck. At that moment, I decide to take the courage to approach and get to know more of her. Many courtships and get togethers followed and on this day, which I particularly choose - 10/10/2000, I went up to her with a 3 inch thick face one peaceful night to ask her to be my girlfriend. She reluctant at first, but she agreed in the end. That night proved to be lucky day I guess!

My Slow and Steady Turtle, King Nien

The thing that draws my heart near to this wonderful creature of God is his intelligence, courage, ambitious...and of course, his charming sweet smile. Don't be fooled by his serious face. He can be quite naughty plus cheeky most of the time. Hahaha...I like being with him cause we get to argue and fight everyday..of course, in a positive and constructive way. Two intelligence roosters (we are born in the same year) get together will always peck at each other. Don't worry, at the end of the day, everything goes fine. All in all, he is the most fantastic man on earth and for the girls out there, he is not available anymore. Haha...
