Where I grew up

in Macau most of my life, also been studying in Sacramento before coming to Melbourne to study.

The things I keep on doing

asking Stephen questions all the time, watching Chinese videos, drinking coffees, car cruising

have discontinued ballet when I was a child.  Otherwise, I believe I can be a very outstanding ballet dancer.

The people I can never pay back in my life

My dad and mum who worked all their lives for their 2 daughters

What change my whole life

Studying overseas has made a big change to my life, changing me from a very dependent little girl to a more independent and confident girl

The things that I don't like

Looking at my broad shoulders and big arms, being indecisive, and easily feeling tired

The things I like

Watching videos with Stephen, car cruising with my honey and listening to music at the same time, massage, sitting for coffees with friends

My future goals

Continue to study a bit more and become more specialized in the physiotherapy field, be a good housewife who can take good care of Stephen, and of course to have two kids with Stephen                             

 

How we meet

"In my mind, the first scene of our love story is the moment when Stephen walked away from his work-mates and approached me in Cafe Kaz (cafeteria of the Royal Melbourne Hospital).  We started our first conversation and he asked for my mobile number.  Not long after, we met again at the Nursing Desk in Ward 4S.  We were both writing patient's notes and suddenly he told me he knew the date of my birthday.  I was really surprised and he said he searched from the Yahoo by my name. From that moment I knew he wanted to..........

Then one day when I finished the day at the hospital, I was so tired. An SMS message (thanks to Gerard, our groomsman) cheered me up and started our long conversation through SMS messages.  That weekend we went out with Cammy (our maid of honour) and one more friend, and that night was our first date when he took me out for a drive. 

On Christmas Day, I heard his voice waking me up and when I first opened my eyes, I saw him kneeling beside me with a ring.  He proposed to me and I accepted as he would expect (He knows me well!)

That started off the preparation for our wedding and we were so excited to see you on our day!"
