Happiest Day

[Shaolin K]

Tomorrow is going to be the happiest day for me. My fiancee is coming here from Japan for a month. I'm sooooooooooooo excited about that :biggrin:. It's been four months since we've seen each other. Long distance relationships are very hard to maintain because of the distance, but somehow we managed to stay together this whole time. Very soon we'll be able to stay together without having to worry about the long distance between us since we're moving in together :D:

But in the meantime, I'm really excited about her coming here to visit first. Yeah!!!!! I don't think I'm gonna be able to sleep at all tonight since I'm so excited and so happy. :crazy:

[Rafal Dudek]

hehe have fun and good luck there Shaolin. =] And keep us updated =]

[Mr. Natural]

With the GF coming in I guess we won't be hearing from you for a while.... :shades:

[Mara]

That's wonderful news, Shaolin. I'm very happy for you. Just remember us, now and then. :):

[Terry Penrod]

Yes, please do stay in touch from time to time SK.

May I suggest a laptop with a wireless connection right next to the bed? Even better, one with voice activated text so you can have both hands free at all times. We do after all expect timely, detailed reports as things, uh... progress.

Cheers, Terry

[Mr. Natural]

How about a web cam! :wink:

[RangerRick]

Have a great time Shaolin.

I doubt very much that you'll be thinking of your friends here for awhile! :no:

How about a web cam! :wink:

A sterling idea if ever there was one.

But could you also add a wide angle lens with a handy dandy pan and zoom-in feature that users can operate remotely along with a good microphone?

We'll add our own mood music, lighting effects, titles, scoreboard stats, voice-over editiorial narratives and play-by-play color commentary from here.

Cheers, Terry

It'll be the best thread ever...but somehow I'm not sure if it'll get past the language filters...

:scared:

[Logan]

So who's moving in where? I admit, I've be envious of you if you got to spend some time in Japan...then again, I'm a bit of a romantic when it comes to that, so spending time anywhere other than home is awesome.

I 2nd that!


:wtf:



Fzoul

[Shaolin K]

Wow, and I thought I was the guttermind here...........voice activated laptop, webcam, ........ :D: Might be a bit too much for the younger audience here, heheheheheh.

Of course I'll keep you updated (in not too much in-depth detail :): )about our travels and future endeavors. I kinda doubt I'll have much time to post during that time though :): I'm sure she'll keep me plenty busy :wink:

Thanks for the well wishes and the uhmmmmm suggestions.....

[Mr. Natural]

Leave it to Terry and I to trash what would have been a perfectly sweet romantic thread.
:p:

[Captain]

lol...
Congrats Shaolin, I hope you two have a great time!!

I'm curious: Who is moving in with who?

[Shaolin K]

Well, I guess I should finally let the cat out of the bag. To answer your questions about who's moving in with who, we discussed this for a while and I have always wanted to live in an Asian country, so in July, I'm moving to Japan for one year, and teach conversational English. After that we might check out Australia for a while, or come back here. We're both travel nuts and are both adventurous, so we wanted to take a chance and see where we end up. We're both still young enough to do lots of traveling and exploring before we settle down somewhere. Most likely we'll probably be back in the States within 3-5years, but you never know. One thing's for sure, no matter where I'll be, I'll always try to keep in contact with all of you fine folks here. :thumbup:

[Captain]

That's awesome Shaolin!!!
Congratulations!
Yeah, wherever you do wander off to, try and keep in contact with us and let us know about your adventures :D:
Good luck!

[Torsion]

Congradulations Shaolin!!!

Its really cool how we got to hear of this romance from the beginning and watch it progress to where it is now. Best of luck!!!

[Kalbrecht]

After that we might check out Australia for a while,

Awesome!

Thank you Tim.

It is one of my true pleasures on G-rated web forums.

Awesome!


In case you didn't already know SK, Kalbrecht lives in OZ.
So you guys should try and hook-up if you do travel there.

Cheers, Terry

[Circlebreaker]

Sounds like you have some great plans for the future! I hope you two have a great time, and keep us posted! :thumbup:

[Chylde Roland]

Very Cool, SK! Course, today's the day, so you probably won't see my post for a long while! Hope everything goes well, man!

[CaptKicass]

How about a web cam! :wink:
:yes: :eek:

[Gaim Mastr]

Have a great time !! :cheers:


And keep helping me to defuse that "loud American" gaijin myth !!
:wink:

[Mara]

Just remember, Japan and Australia are civilized countries and have INTERNET ACCESS. You can reach us.

Remember....Phone home or rather connect via internet with your internet family!

He already has, Terry. We've emailed each other and I've warned him about the massive spiders, snakes and...uh...lovely...uh...weather here...

Woah woah woah. Let's not go too far.

The kangaroo based communication system is pretty advanced, but we still have some outages when it's feeding time...

:yes:

Congratulations Shaolin, and the very best of luck to you and your fiancee.

I see...

sometimes we tend to forget that those giant, acid-spitting arachnids and slithering, razor-fanged serpents we're battling in some dark, ominous dungeon or atop a shimmering, crystal ice palace in a fareway land of elves, goblins, orcs and mythical lore are... you know, not really real.

Cheers, Terry

[Shaolin K]

All right, quick update. She is finally here, and we're very very very happy together. So far we haven't done that much as far as sightseeing is concerned since it's only been a couple of days since she came here and she's still getting used to the 13hr. time difference.

As for me, all I can say is.......need...........sleep. We tend to stay up kinda late, and she wakes up kinda early still, which means I inadvertendly wake up early too. But I'm not complaining since we can wake up next to each other every morning, which is so wonderful after such a long time apart.

This coming week, we're going to go to the nearest Beach (Cocoa Beach), go to a nice Museum, go to Epcot, and just hang out in the city for a while. Towards the end of the week, we'll head down to south Florida, stay in Miami for two days, and then have a wonderful time in the Florida Keys. I'll write more when we get back from our little trip.

Have agreat time SK and keep us posted when you can.
