A Lifetime Experience: Proposing to @enjiliew

Something wonderful just happened during the last weekend! I proposed to my girlfriend and she said “YES”!

Prior to this, there was an event that she wanted to attend badly which is JJ Lin’s Sanctuary World Tour Concert in Malaysia. She is a legit and hardcore fan of him for 15 years ago! After 5 years, JJ finally returns to Malaysia to do his concert and the ticket price was crazy as well. Setting aside my rationality on budgeting, I decided to buy two VVIP tickets for both of us. At the same time, I could use this unique moment for me to propose. This is also my first ever concert experience too!

During the concert day (last Friday), we went to the Axiata Arena earlier to help the fans club on distributing tickets. Well, I was not sure about the things around and so offering myself to be the photographer for the time being. When clock stroke 8pm, we moved into the arena. At first sight, we were quite disappointed with the location we had. Even though we get our tickets quite early, being the 18th person to get the ticket, we were allocated two seats at the 16th row. Frankly, we cannot see JJ Lin in a close distance but the overall view was good for me, which I could see all the performance going on the stage. As for my fiancée to be, she was disappointed with the arrangement as she expected to be sitting at the front 10 rows.

When JJ sang the song, Love U U which I think it was an appropriate timing to propose. I proposed to her. Unfortunately, the tight seating arrangement restricted me from kneeling down to her (I owe her one for that). She thought for a moment and said yes which then I had the proposal ring on her. It happened for a very short while and we continued to enjoy the concert until 11pm. The concert was fun for me. He can really uplift the beat of the audiences, but we could not stand and dance along as it will obstruct the view from behind. Nevertheless, we did enjoy the whole process.

Here is a write up in Chinese from me to her based on JJ Lin’s song titles.
在陪你十五年的老公林俊傑 JJ Lin前，战战兢兢地和你求婚。在的音乐响起之际，把这份心意传达给你。想要表达的其实有很多很多，想要和你经历<那些很冒险的梦>，和你说无数的，在你低落时给你<加油>, 一起寻找彼此<灵魂的共鸣>，并把这<爱与希望>传达给你。

回想起以前刚认识你，被你<那爱笑的眼睛>和甜美的歌声吸引，原来在那刻起我们就展开了<生生>的恋情。<第几个一百天>，对我们来说不再是重要，而是说出那句<简简单单>的“Yes”，代表着我们日后彼此<修炼爱情>，一起到世界各地<发现爱>，<超越无限>。

知道你心里是想要得到他的祝福，我相信通过他的歌声，那份足足的祝福已经送到心头。他为我们搭建的那个<圣所>，让我们明白生命中<伟大的渺小>，也让我们秉持着<有梦不难>的心理，迈向未来。

We also made a promise between ourselves which is as follow:
A start for Zhao Wei Kim and Enji Liew to pursue the life journey together as #kimiji. This is something we came up together, to be a form of belief that holds us together, to be something that we will work together as partners and be something that we could channel what we learn and share it with our friends and family.

Our pursuance on this journey is learning to love. We believe that each stage of life comes with different responsibility, obstacles and challenges. Nonetheless, with this cause that we hold together, we learn to love our life and embrace those challenges and face them as one entity. Love, is an ability that could transcend and perceive space and time.
