A dinner

On Saturday night Jason and I had our 4 year anniversary dinner. I had work all day so I was quite tired already. We went to this place called Liquorish. It was lovely. Great food and company.

This is a little collage of our night. I know it's uneven and the photos aren't too good. The lighting was soft and the flash made things look bad. 

Jason had bought me a lovely trench coat. I saw it at work and loved it. It's what I'm wearing in the pic.

And this is the trench. It's soft of a silver shade. I thought I would muck around with iPhoto to get the other picture. 

Here it is again, and I have been playing around with iPhoto a lot. 

I did say last post that I would write about how we met. So here is a quick rundown of the story.

Jason and I met on the train in 2004 and we were 19. We were on our way to university. It really wasn't as random as that because a friend of mine, Thara,  was in the same course as he was and she was also on the train. We just happened to meet that way =) Although if you really want to get technical you could say we 'met' at a party in 2003. I went to a party with Thara for another one of her uni friends and I kind of met him there. I don't remember it but the weird thing is Jason happened to be in the photo, which I only realised after I met him properly. 

This was our first photo at uni. Yes, he had funny blonde hair and we look young (not that too much has changed). That year we became really good friends but we didn't start going out until the year after. I had just come out of another relationship and really didn't want to be in another one. He was definitely patient as we both had our issues to deal with and really when we finally starting dating it was so much better than it probably would have been if we started going out earlier. We built up a fantastic friendship first and I really do think that helped. 

I really do love and adore him and I'm so excited that in 6 months I get to be married to my best friend! Here are a few more pictures over the course of our relationship.

This was Jason's university graduation in 2006 I think it was (I forget sometimes).

I don't remember when this was taken but I think it may have been the first time I met some of his extended relatives. 

This was my 21st birthday we went down the coast for the day. Yes I'm wearing swimmers they're just strapless =p

This was for our church's young adult formal. A masquerade. I think in 2006. 

This is my university graduation in 2007. 

Jason came to the Philippines with me and my family in 2008. This is at a restaurant on water. 

Us now. It's been a wonderful 4 years and I look forward to many more years together.
