Reading through I realized that its the Bvlgari Resort in Bali ! (http://www.bulgarihotels.com/)
Its simply gorgeous ! It has this 1.5km length of private beach that nobody can reach... neither by foot nor by boat and the only way that one can reach there is by taking an inclined elevator in the Resort in order to get there. Its facing the Indian Ocean...
How romantic is that ?!?! Imagine lying on the beach and just listening to the sound waves and looking at the stars....
Is there any stars in Bali in the first place ? *blinks blinks* I mean we do not have any in Singapore except the Northern Star which is forever by the side of the moon... Other than that, we do not have any stars at all. How pathetic is our concrete jungle ? Since its so concrete already, I seriously think they should build some fake stars and shoot it up the sky or something...
Anyway back to my romantic gateaway, the resort also boast an infinity pool and its not hotel rooms but VILLAS. The cheapest is like $1200 in US DOLLAR !!!!!!! *screams in horror*
It has all sorts of services, like limousine, butler, private tour etc etc.... Prolly I will meet somebody rich and famous then we can be BFF !!! And then you guys will get to see me appearing in People magazine ! Hey I mean I sure as hell don't mind being Katie Holmes or Kate Hudson's sidekick ! *silly grin*
Ok so below are my proof on how gorgeous the villa looks:
So do you guys agree with me that you wouldn't mind parting your precious 2k plus worth of money for such a villa ?!?! I sure as hell wouldn't mind... Seriously !

Ok now, let me tell you a love story:
One lovely day, Boy asked Girl out for dinner (which is very normal for them cause they've been going out for a while now).
"What shall we have for dinner ?" Asked the Girl.
"Lets go have BBQ Stingray and Fried Hokkien Mee at East Coast !" Replied the Boy.
"Ooooohhh... Good idea !!" Exclaimed the Girl.
So Boy and Girl has a satisfying dinner of BBQ Stingray, BBQ Chicken Wings and Fried Hokkien Mee at East Coast hawker centre...
Then Boy suggest, "Hey ! Since we're here, wanna go take a walk over at East Coast Park ?"
Girl replied, "Huh ?! I wouldn't mind but it's so late already..."
Boy pursued, "Awww...come on, I'll get you Gelare !"
"Hmmm... OK !" Girl grinned.
So hand in hand after Gelare did they strolled on the beach... As it was late, the beach was quite quiet and they listen to the waves and looks at the stars.
Suddenly, the Boy asked the Girl to close her eyes cause he've got a surprise for her.
"What is it ?!?!" Gushes the Girl.
"Don't peeeeeeekkkkk !!!!!" Warned the Boy.
"Okay, now open your eyes" Whispered the Boy.
Girl's jaws dropped and her eyeballs threatened to pop out of its socket.
Boy just grinned from ear to ear.
Girl asked, "What's that ?!"
Boy replied, "It's a little token to show you how much I love you"
Boy took out the famous Cartier Love cuff bracelet out from its red with gold frame box and close the cuff bracelet around the Girl's slender wrist. With that, he took out a little screw-driver like thing to tighten a screw on the bracelet.
And he declared, "This bracelet is just to show you that you've captured and lock my heart just like how I've locked this bracelet around your wrist. My love for you will stay forever just like this bracelet."
After the little speech, the Boy kept the "key" back into the box and slips it into his pocket.
**************************************************************************
Awwww... isn't the concept behind this LOVE bracelet oh-so-sweet ?!?!?!?! *melts*
When I first learned about this bracelet, I was like ... "OMG ! Thats the sweetest thing on earth !!!"
I adore the bracelet not because it's by Cartier but cause of the sentiment behind it. I think deep down inside me, I'm a hopeless romantic :P
I'm a sucker for such thing... Jewellery with meanings...
Just like another ancient jewellery that has been around: Claddagh Ring from Ireland.
It is a ring that looks like this:
Legend has it that a man by the name of Richard Joyce left his town to work in the West Indies and intend to marry his love upon his return. However, his ship was captured and he was sold as slave to a Moorish goldsmith and he was trained in the craft. When William III became King, he demanded all British prisoners to be release and Joyce returned to Galway where he was from despite Moor's offering of his daughter's hand in marriage and half of his fortune.
Back in Ireland a young women had never stopped faithful waiting for her true love to return. Upon which time when he presented her with the now famous Royal Claddagh gold ring - a symbol of their enduring love. Two hands to represent their friendship, the crown to signify their loyalty and lasting fidelity, and the sign of the heart to symbolise their eternal love for each other. They soon married, never to be separated again.
~ The End ~
A poem I came across that was written from the meaning of the claddagh ring:
**************************************************************************
With this crown
I give my loyalty
With these hands
I offer my service
With this heart
I give you mine
in love, in friendship, let us reign
**************************************************************************
How to wear a Claddagh ring and its meaning:
Worn on the right hand, with crown and heart facing out, the ring tells that the wearer's heart is yet to be won. While under love's spell it is worn with heart and crown facing inwards. Wearing the ring on the left hand, with the crown and heart facing inwards, signifies that your love has been requited.
**************************************************************************
Its so sweet, isn't it ??????
I first saw it on Buffy The Vampire Slayer when Angel gave Buffy this ring. (Angel was from Ireland)
And I saw it on Mas' hairdresser finger and on my Irish Dancing teacher's finger too... And I thought it was utterly sweet...
Guess I'm turning into a sap... *imitates Kyle Hyde from Hotel Dusk:Room 512*
Hehehe....
