Our Story
Flora and Ekmanson came from the same school - TWGHs Wong Fut Nam College, and they have been in the same class since form 2 to form 5. Ironical enough, the form 2 class teacher Ms. Maggie Cheung clearly told Ekmanson that she arranged Flora to be his neighbour simply because she wanted to use this most silent girl in class to refrain the talkative boy from chatting. Ms. Cheung did succeed though, they did not talk to each other much except Flora kept on complaining Ekmanson of knocking down her Clarinet case.
When the next class teacher of form 3 did the very same thing (maybe for the very same reasons? don't know), of course they did not expect much changes from the previous year. However, another factor set in - the ICQ. A new thing to any teenagers by that time, they insisted on getting online for sometime each night. Simply for the reason of getting to know more about the girl sitting next to him, he insisted on waiting Flora to get online (around 0100 hours) every night despite of the protests from his father.
They have soon became a very important friend of each other, and Flora also invited Ekmanson to learn percussion. They have also cooperated on several mini projects though, notably the first-ever website they designed together, which was chosen as the website of WFN Parent Teacher Association. They have been chatting with each other on a daily basis, while hasn't been considering each other as potential targets for some reasons. Ekmanson has even saved months of his pocket money to buy her a 2.1 channel computer speaker as her birthday present. On the last day of their HKCEE examination (18 May 2001), Flora was invited to join the fellowship of Homantin Swatow Baptist Church.
Though studying in different schools since form 6, they have been kept on going to HSBC. In church, they have made a movie (Reborn) together in 2003, while making another musical "尋抓" in 2004. It was days before the musical, that they couldn't hide their love for each other anymore. They've been together since.
Going through different stages of their lives together for 6 years, the decision to get married was made in November, 2010. By the time of their wedding day (3 Dec 2011), they would have been together for 2682 days, or 7 years 4 months and 3 days, excluding the end date.

Flora (according to Ekmanson)
Flora is a very smart girl. She has an adorable face, yet she is also creatively evil. I mean, in a good way that I absolutely love. Her creative ideas are always stunning and innovative in a sense that they definite make you laugh even if being impractical.
Flora is very serious in getting things done and she's definitely the partner of a lifetime. She is level-headed when I am furious, with her I have been a better and better man ever since then.
Flora is truly my best companion. I am a lucky guy.
Ekmanson (according to Flora)
Ekmanson is a very intelligent guy with extremely high levels of self-esteem and self-confidence. With his charming leadership, he has his own way to force others to follow him. Being a moderate cleanaholic, he is more than willing to take up the housework and I truly believe he will be a wonderful husband.
Ekmanson is definitely not a romantic guy, yet he is a responsible man who can be relied on and worth to spend a whole life with. He is truly my best companion. Thank God.
