‘What have we gotten myself into?’ How a S’porean girl proposed to her boyfriend during the S’pore National Stadium
Wong Xiao Yuan and Kenneth Chandran tell us how they see the debate over sex norms swirling around them: simply background noise.
On Saturday, July 20, all of the fans going into the Singapore Sports Hub to look at the soccer match between Manchester United and Inter Milan had been probably excited.
On the other hand, 23-year-old Wong Xiao Yuan ended up being a lot of money of nerves as she moved in to the arena.
“I looked to his buddy and stated ‘Oh my god, exactly what did we get myself into?” she told Mothership.
The second 50-odd mins saw Wong, a nurse by occupation, anxiously viewing the clock, counting along the minutes and moments to half-time.
Finding in their own from the “kiss cam”
If the break into the match finally arrived, Wong’s now-fiancй Kenneth Joel Chandran, 30, pointed out that a bit was being acted by her strange.
Digital digital Cameras during the arena had been roaming the crowd that is 52,000-strong and an emcee was encouraging couples to take part in the halftime entertainment — a “kiss cam” portion. Chandran thought this represented a good time and energy to just take pictures, but Wong seemed reluctant.
