I have many flaws.
And that includes my inability to be bothered about nitty gritty details. I aim to do my work right within the shortest time possible.
So when Gerrie told me that she wanted me to do a jigsaw puzzle before I could pop The Question to her, I almost jumped.
"Where got time? I have to work!"
But she insisted. And that I would have to do a 1000 piece puzzle.
*sweat*
It all began when I wanted to tapao Chong Pang nasi lemak back to her home after an appointment with one of my customers. I served my NS liability (and is still doing my ICT) at one of the camps in Yishun a couple of years back and I have always craved for the nasi lemak there.
I was walking towards the kopitiam when I passed by a small-scale pasar malam. One of the stores was selling toys. Smacked right in the middle of that particular store was stacks of jigsaw puzzles.
They were mostly fantasy themes and a couple of Mickey and Pooh's. Then, after much digging, I chanced upon this...
I thought the picture was apt and looked great, and what's more, I got it at a discounted price of $10. =)
The next day, while watching some DVDs, I opened up the puzzle and was pleased to see numbers behind each piece.
Great, I got help!
I spent a couple of days fixing it up before I gave up. I told myself, "I know I can do this. I would do a proper one!"
P.S. Gerrie happened to see this puzzle in the study room on 6th Sep 2008.
