A ring, a ring, a ring, engagement ring!!!

Mr LSE Mr LSE, I want a simple diamond ring like above :-)

Everyone else says...Diamond is a girl's best friend. Even in all those awesome jewellery advertisements, you could spot this statement. A girl's best friend???!!!

I didn't know what was diamond all about....until yesterday, i roughly had some ideas :-)

DIAMOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know a good quality diamond would come along with a certificate (this is what Mr LSE told me, surprisingly...he did some surveys before this, i felt touched lor) verified by GEMOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF AMERICA something like that.

You have to see the Carat, Cut, Colour and Clarity in order to choose a good diamond. They would have a scale chart, scaling from good to low quality diamond. Just follow the chart, you won't go wrong.

Of course....the price was freaking expensive too!!! 0.3 something carat...if the diamond was the good one, it could cost you up to RM3,500 plus plus. Wow!!!! Even though it is just a diamond ring!!!

Yesterday, after a long flight, reached home in Seremban, Mr LSE brought me along in surveying a right decent engagament ring. OH YA..... I AM GETTING MARRIED LOR!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~

You all must be curious....how did Mr LSE propose me??? Emmm...well well, he did propose me out of a sudden, one day when i was really down and unhappy after returning from a flight. He was in Kuala Selangor at that time, I was in Seremban.... and i seriously missed him so much. Only God knew.

Few minutes later, he sent me a lovely MMS and i just smiled sweetly.... so i shall call it that was the proposal :-)

Mr LSE said...at that time, "Give me some time Baby, wait till everything settled, i could get you a ring."

That time, Mr LSE was busying with his working tasks. Our endurances, our patiences. Now everything is doing well. I am so so so proud of him.

You all must be curious...i was along with him in surveying an engagement ring??? Yup, i was along with him. We did talk about this...i still prefer to choose a ring along together with him. Reason...i could choose a design that i love, am i right???

And i choose the most expensive one!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahaha, i am a devil you see!!!!!!!! Kidding la ok :P

Hihihihi, Seremban doesn't have many choices. We went to Poh Kong....the Salesperson wasn't in the mood of serving us...maybe i looked like a "Makcik" right after flight, after removing my makeup. But i did put on my glasses ok, so that i won't look so fatigue. Or maybe i wasn't carrying my designer bag along, i didn't carry my COACH nor LONGCHAMP, i was carrying my RM19 flowery small bag which i bought in Kota Kinabalu the day before yesterday. Or maybe maybe, we looked unaffordable for them. Whatever!!! That Salesperson even scannned me from top to toe.

We headed to Wah Chan 321K, Salesperson was nice, but the design wasn't my favourite.

Then we headed to TOMEI...Mr LSE was busying on phone. I was staring happily at the rings. The Salesperson was the worst Salesperson i had ever seen in my life. Her look was seriously "WTF." Her makeup went wrong, her deportment went wrong and...she only answered me one or two words when i asked her about the diamond ring. Was i looked so damn awful meh????!!!!

Worst part was....Whenever i wanted to try out another ring, she immediately stored back another ring into the glass drawer. Ooooh....memang DAMN you ok!!!

But the design of those rings there was quite nice. I am kinda loving it.

Mr LSE was quite pissed off, he just held my hand and walked away from the shop....and the Salesperson didn't even say thank you ok!!! Hey, if i didn't try the ring and place it into my whatever#4 finger, how was i supposed to know which ring looked nice on me???!!!!! Right right???!!!!

We walked out, we saw another Salesperson whom my girlfriend, Cathy...bought a jewellery from him before. He recognized me. I immediately told him... "Hey, your staff there lor, so "snobbish!!!"

He was kind, he apologized and we went back into that shop again. He explained to us a lot about diamond. But no discount given wor. SIGH. It wasn't cheap ok. How could a diamond has no discount, not even a 5%??? Wow, they memang earn a lot ok.

Therefore, me and Mr LSE decided of getting down to Midvalley one day, we would get the ring there. Hihihi, i lagi happy le...Midvalley has Diamond & Platinum, Love & Co and bla bla bla. If wanted more...we can jump to The Gardens, just right beside Midvalley only. Hahaha!!!

Wow...the feeling of getting married is so so so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_^

trust me, don't get ring from 321K. I worked part time there for 2 days last 4 years ago, the ring quality so low until my dogs also want to spit on it. Eh no offence on whover bought a ring from them la, Moon. "Zhou Ta Fu" (in chinese) is opening soon in Pavilion, go and check it out cause all its product certified by the diamond board :)

cheesan said...

Moon, 3.3 carat at RM3,500 is very cheap! It should be RM3,500 for 0.33 carat, haha... Buy the loose diamond, it's far more cheaper than those ready made :) and you could choose the quality based on the specs in the certificate.

Congrats ya!

Yin Mun~Moon said...

Congrats on the engagement!!

Congrats, dear. Its the biggest moment when someone love u and wanna be with u forever in his life. Enjoy your preparation for your wedding. Do visit Tiffany, Cartier or Carot Club. Nevertheless, Cartier is more for fashionable rings than wedding bands with diamonds. They have finest diamond and high quality and of coz with the certificate. Good service too. I got mine at CC.

Happy shopping!
