Unconventional proposal at Customs
Written on Sunday, 20 of June, 2010 at 5:44 am
My friend Twyla picked up a package from her special someone at the Customs which she knew contained jewelry. The box had to be opened there for checkup, so she almost fainted when she saw that the jewelry her special someone gave her was an engagement ring! ^_^
Turns out the reason why she had to pick up the parcel all the way at Customs was because the ring has certified diamonds. That also meant she had to pay Custom’s a lot for the tax. It’s a good thing she was able to play up a drama and pretended the jewelry was for her mom who was deceased – her wearing an all black attire helped her play that part. 0;) It worked and she only paid very minimal tax.
Twyla’s actually a type of person who doesn’t like following the norms and had already told her special someone that she doesn’t like proposals. Then again, receiving a proposal in the middle of packages and in a very unconventional manner last month made it acceptable for her. She’s been wearing the gorgeous ring since.
