Proposed to Marry Tag

I've been tagged by Mommy Maria of Maria Went To Chicago. Thank you very much-- I enjoyed doing this and reminscing as well. ^_^ Though this might not be a romantic one, this is one of happenings of my life that I always keep.
My ideal of a perfect proposal is this: the setting will be at the beach, sunset( of course ) and there he'll give me the engagement ring and say the magic word " I wanna share the rest of my life with you, will you marry me? " .




BUT it was impossible coz I was working then in the evening as an entertainer here in Japan and when my husband proposed to me in the club, it was noisy! When he proposed to me, I said " What? I didn't hear you! " he said " kekkon shiyou "( a straight and simple marry me ) 3 times coz we're not hearing each other well. He proposed to me a week before finishing my contract for 6 months and decided to meet his parents. I met his parents but I didn't know that his Father is against a Filipina. After a long waiting of processing of papers, we became man and wife and then we went back again to his parents house and that's the only time I heard the truth that he is against me. Gees!! That time I was nervous because of that long silence between both parties.We are all sitted at a coffee table ( japanese stlyle ) me and my husband, and they're all facing in front of us. But my husband said to his Father that he's not asking for forgiveness for marrying a Filipina but he wants to introduce me that I am now his wife and whatever happens, it's his decision and responsibility. Even if his father is against of our marriage, my husband fighted for our love. After that, his father asked his wife to prepare a hotpot. While my Mother-In-Law is preparing the hotpot, she was crying-- she told me that hotpot is served during winter time, she said that it means that I am now accepted in the family because for them a HOTPOT is shared by family and that time it was summer and then we both cried.


I will wait for you down the aisles, Count each step and everystep, while you and I will be together, never to be parted forever and ever --- Yoshiyuki

I will walk to the altar to where you are, Smile to the world like a shining star, Take your hand as I have never done because you and I will be one. --- Clarissa

Hey Clarz, Di man romantic yung proposal sayo but o the fact tht he fought for your love is more than romantic... Am just curious, why is your father in law agains Filipinas.. Di nya ba alam na the best maging wife ag Pinay hahaha.. That's according to hubby's opinion.

@Exciting Post Collector: Thanks for the compliment and for dropping by!^_^
@Ate Rose: A lot of Filipinas and Chinese wives married to Japanese at my In-Laws place before but most of them now were gone.His father is worried that my husband will experience the same thing because I am a Filipina,too. Talagang wala ng pinay wives dun sa kanila,Te ako na lang ang natira!They run away from their Japanese husband-- I have met some of them.Some says they've been maltreated,some says they want more money and now working at a club.(Who knows,I don't want to be jugdemental).That's why my father in law is against a filipina and I can't blame him for not trusting Filipinas anymore.Until then,I am still the only one pinay on their place.Thanks for dropping by!^_^

eds said...

shocks!pang maala-ala nga ang story mo ate Clarissa. Alam mo baka na mis-judge ka lang at first ng father in law mo kasi nga Entertainer ka before. But then again I have lots og friends na naging entertainer sa Japan.. hehe Pati nga ako nangarap jan eh and ang ikasasama naman daw ng pagiging entertainer eh nasa tao di ba.

Teka nalayo ang comment hehe.. Ayun, nakakatuwa nman ang husband mo. Na inlove talaga sau hano. One more thing hayaan mo na yung proposal kahit hindi maganda yun maintindihan mong desidido sia na maging kahati ng buhay niya (tama ba) eh isa sa pinaka unforgetable moments para sau. Iniharap ka na rin niya sa altar and now look at you. You have two pretty angels.. Im happy for you! I wish you both happiness kasama ang mga kids .. :)

Clarissa said...

@Mommy She: Thanks po sa papuri and for the visits!!Have a nice day po!^_^
@Eds: Oo nga,iba rin kasi ang dating ng mga entertainer tapos yung nag-run away na pinay dun,grupo ko pa naman dati-nauna lang magpakasal sa akin.(T_T)Kaya di ko rin masisisi kung bakit ganun na lang ang ayaw ng tatay nya sa pinay dati.Thanks for dropping by ha!^_^

Chubskulit Rose said...

I see, ganun pala... I am glad that he saw the real you Clarz....

Dee said...

Aw, that was really romantic... because your husband fought for your love, no matter what. You're so blessed to have such a loving and fine husband. And he's so blessed too to have a beautiful wife. You're so beautiful in your wedding!

richard said...

You look love on your wedding dress and you look good together...

What a perfect couple....

Have a nice day Calarissa and thank you so much for always visiting my blog....

Umma said...

Wow.. inspirational pala ang love story nyo Clarz.. kaka touched naman...but love always prevails..

Kahit na anong bagyo or unos ang naka balandra sa inyo. you will fight for it bec of the word "LOVE"

YOur hubby loves you so much dear.. maybe sometimes he's not demonstrative of his feelings, which is very typical for some guys.. but deep inside he cares about you... tipid lang sia sa pagmamahal..

But perhaps he is showing it in different way naman.. Kakatuwa bec your hubby looks the same as our Korean friend hahaha.

Super ganda mo sa wedding gown mo ha? You look gorgeous Clarz.. kaya naman pala inlove si fafa sa yo..
