a day in the life of mr. go-to guy

a former colleague of mine is asking my help to look for a diamond ring engagement which he plans to give to his girlfriend and soon-to-be fiancee, hopefully. a quick search on the net will tell you that diamond rings are not really that affordable -- i saw a site with prices ranging from 200K to 5M pesos (converted already from USD). i think locally, it will still be costly.

i am trying to convince him he should not spend much on the engagement ring... after all, they'll have a wedding ring eventually. i told him to look for a simple ring and just make his proposal something her girlfriend will never, ever forget... not even in a thousand years.

he agreed. but now, i have to help him how to make that proposal memorable. well, memorable, but simple. any thoughts? :-)
