Thanks guys!! Just a quick run-thru on what happened:

My girlfriend Bobbi knew that I was gonna arrive Oct 2. I made a set-up so that she thinks I was still sending her text messages from my computer back in Sydney. Then I talked to her friends there in Manila to hold a surprise party for her on Oct 1. (Her birthday was on the 9th).

So she comes there, they surprise her with HAPPY BIRTHDAYS and some posters on the wall, she's all smiles! Then they say there's another surprise and they have to blindfold her. I come out of a room and ask everyone to leave the area so that it's only me and her there. With music playing on the background, I removed her blindfold and she see's me for the 2nd surprise. We hug, talk, and slowdance.. and I spun her around so that she wasn't facing the posters on the wall that says HAPPY BIRTHDAY. My friend flips them over while my girl wasnt facing, and then Bobbi starts to panic coz I was shaking in nervousness. Finally I spun her around and she see's the WILL YOU MARRY HIM words on the wall.. I got down on one knee.. to the surprise of Bobbi (and everybody else).. and the rest is history. Wedding is on July 9, 2006!

Thanks again for everything! You guys are the best! I'll post scans soon so this will look legit hehehe. We got everything on video too!

Anyways.. enough of my personal life from me for now and back to pure NBA.

Nets are looking good this season!!! LETS GO NETS!!!

Congrats Carlos!!!

Thats sounds like a top notch proposal... mind if I steal it some time? Althoug my girlfriend lives close by... I'm sure I can use some of it....

 

[chadjaja]

On the 1% chance I do I'll just ask Kristin to marry me here in a post . Easier for both of us as she will read it and can just reply. No need to complicate things with offline/online.

Is that romantic :?

 

[kidd05]

Yeah no problems dude hehe.
