Okay don’t make fun of me but let’s be honest, I didn’t get tagged. Hahaha! But Jay is playing halo and I’m bored and not tired so I decided to tag myself. Eh hem, kinda embarrassing but nonetheless I had fun doing it. 😀
Okay don’t make fun of me (esp u Kami) but let’s be honest, I saw my wife tag herself! Hahaha! But Sarah is facebooking/blogging and I’m at work, bored and not tired, so I decided to defend myself. Eh hem, um Sarah das kinda embarrassing that you tagged yourself, but whatevs 😛
What’s his name: Jason. People call him Jay or Jase. I call him boo boo, babu, or Jay.
What’s her name: Sarah “Mine” Tyau. Peeps call her Choi. I call her hot mama.
How long have we been together? We’ve been married for almost 1 1/2 years. Wow time flies! But we’ve known each other for 4 years before we were married.
How long have we been together? We’ve been married for almost 1.5 years. Me love you long time! But I’ve known her for 3.6 years before we were married and she knew me 4 years before we were married cause my cousins wanted her to hook up with me after my mish.
How long did you date? We were on and off for 7 months, then engaged for almost 3 months. I kept breaking up with him, poor guy. 🙁
How long did you date? We were VERY on and off, on and off, on and off for the longest 7 months of my life, then engaged for almost 3 months. She’d break up with me, date some loser, realize he was a loser, and come back to the winner! Poor guy = Winner and all those losers…their still losers! 🙂
Who eats more? If we’re talking about at one sitting, then definitely Jay. He eats about 4 servings of a regular man I swear. But I think I would say we’re even if we’re looking at our consumption for the whole day. Jay eats 2 big meals, I eat and snack constantly. 😀
Who eats more? If we’re talking bout at one sitting, then definitely Me, I am equal to 4 regular men minus the belly I swear. But I think I would say that it’s NOT EVEN CLOSE if we’re looking at our consumption for the whole day. I eat A LOT, Sarah eats as much as Adalie does. 😀
Who said “I love you” first? Jay…when we started dating between 1-2 1/2 weeks. Yeah so fast I know! It scared me to death and I didn’t say anything back so he felt dumb and changed the subject. Then the next day I made fun of him for it and he TOTALLY denied that he said the L word. Hahaha!
Who said “I love you” first? Me, definitely…when we were dating for about a month. I only said it because she was thinking it! When I was in Hawaii I asked her what the “M” in her middle name stands for and she said “since I’m dating you it means MINE” (like she’s “mine” yikes!) and it scared me even more to death with what she said after: “I’ll only be yours if I have a ring on my finger!” I didn’t say anything back so she felt dumb and changed the subject.
HA! Jay you shouldn’t lie, I’m surprised though you were pretty honest with the other things except this one! To clarify he asked me, “What does M stand for in your middle name? Is it Sarah “MINE” Choi?” which I clearly objected and said, “Nope, I’m not anybody’s to claim until I have a ring on my finger.” Now he loves to hold my hand and say, “Look is that a ring on your finger?” With a huge grin on his face. There Jay, I cleared it for ya, you’re welcome hun.
Who’s taller? Hahaha are you serious? Let’s see, I’m barely 5’4″ and he’s 6’2″. I LOVE his height. I was always only attracted to tall guys. I mean only Jay…
Who’s taller? Hahaha are you serious? Let’s see, Sarah’s LUCKY if she’s 5’3” and a ½ and I’m 6’2”. I was always attracted to girls around 5’3”-5’4” so that I could rest my arm comfortably on their shoulder. I mean only Sarah…
Haha yeah since you were a PLAYA until you met me and dated girls of ALL height and sizes. And you even measured me and said I was 5’4″ so there!
Who can sing better? Puhahahaha I would say me but that’s not even a compliment because he’s tone-deaf, which he is so not aware of. I tell him all the time (yeah I’m such a nice wife) but he always says, “Whatever! Listen to this…” and then starts singing another song. Now I just don’t say anything and listen quietly to the first song he sings so he won’t sing another song. Haha but I do love hearing him sing especially when he sings his impromptu lyrics for Adalie. It is so sweet and sincere and I get teary eyed listening to him sometimes.
Who can sing better? Muhahahaha I would say if we’re talking about the “Titanic Song: My heart will go on” by Celine Dion, then it’s probably her. I tell her all the time (yeah I’m such a nice hubby) but she always says, “Whatev! Listen to this…” and then after Titanic, she starts singing her Pocahontas song. Haha but I do love hearing her sing, but if we’re talkin bout impromptu lullaby lyrics for Adalie, HANDS DOWN, she knows that I’m king and she knows it, cause I’m hot and she’s not, and if she wants to hang with me I’ll give her one shot TOP THAT!
Who’s smarter? I would say Jay since he knows so much about everything and is street smart, people smart, book smart and has great social-skills. I have a really good memory however and I’m basically a human recorder(I’ll remember everything that’s ever happened or what’s ever been said) but with being street smart, yeah I got NONE. I am very naive and I trust EVERYONE.
Who’s smarter? I would say Me since I know so much about EVERYTHING and am street smart, people smart, book smart, and have GREAT social-skills. Sarah has a real good memory however and thinks she’s a human recorder (She’ll remember every little thing that you don’t want her to remember) but with being street smart, yeah she got NONE, ZIP, ZILCH, ZERO, NADA! She is naïve, and trust EVERYONE.
Who does the laundry? Me mostly but Jay helps out quiet often. I am always the one to fold and put clothes away.
Who does the laundry? OMG! I would say 60%-40% in her favor! She’s home more, what do you expect? Ask her initially folded all her clothes and who cleaned her entire closet on numerous occasions. Plus look at all her clothes compared to mines, she has WAY WAY WAY more clothes, she should do the laundry more! 😉
I would say 90%-10% TOPS. You put away all my clothes and organized it ONCE. Which I’m sure took a lot of time haha.
Who pays the bills? Jay earns all the income and he also pays all the bills. I volunteered to pay the bills a few months after we got married and he let me for one month. Then the next month when I was about to pay the bills, he informed me he had already paid it. 😀 He just likes to be in charge and likes to do things himself.
Who pays the bills? I pay the bills because I do the budget. If she budgeted then she could help pay the bills. A child will not run if they only can crawl. I am in charge and I get things done.
Who cooks dinner? Me me me. Jay is an amazing chef and he used to cook a lot when we were dating and right when we got married and would cook all sorts of stuff like ice-cream rolls(yeah I know), salmon, mabo tofu but now when he does cook in a rare occasion it’s spam, rice and sea-weed, or BBQ. He just says he prefers my cooking over his. 😀
Who cooks dinner? Sarah sarah sarah. I am an amazing chef and I used to cook a lot when we were dating and right when we got married and would cook all sorts of stuff but now when I do cook on rare occasion, I love me my spam, rice, and sea-weed or BBQ! Sarah says I cook and eat too much meat, I just use that as an excuse so that she cooks…cause yeah, she is better cook than I am. Her foods “aight.”
I made Indian green curry for him and my brother one day and while Joseph told me it was restaurant quality and delicious, he just said it’s “aight”. For him “aight” means good he later told me. So I make fun of him and tell him it’s no fun cooking for him. And whoa Jay you finally admit I’m a better cook than you, an amazing chef? 😛
Who drives? Jay.
Who drives? I think we should ask Sarah’s brother Michael why I drive 😀
Who is more stubborn? We are both very stubborn. We can debate for hours.
Who is more stubborn? We are both very stubborn. We DO debate for hours!
Who kissed who first? Jay 100%. And when I say 100% it was just that. I dropped him off at the airport and he gave me a hug and ever so sneakily he grabbed both of my cheeks and gave me a peck on the lips before I had a chance to resist. He didn’t give me an option! Jay says it was more like 60%-40% where I puckered my lips and kissed back but no way!!! I even have a witness, my cousin Ginny whom I called right after it had happened telling her, “How dare he kiss me! On the lips like that! It was so sneaky, I had no free agency!” I always imagined a first kiss to be like you know where you are watching the sunset together, your eyes meet and then he slowly leans in and you lean in closer and then magic. Haha So I don’t count that as our 1st kiss even though Jay does. Our “2nd” kiss sure was magic though. 🙂
Who kissed who first? Jay 70% Sarah 30%. She dropped me off at the airport and I gave her a hug and at that moment our eyes gazed into eachother and we drifted into an endless bliss. I closed my eyes and went in for a “test kiss peck” and she puckered up. She didn’t give me an option since she reached and held my hand the WHOLE way up to the airport! A witness is someone who has firsthand knowledge about an event through their senses (e.g. seeing, hearing, smelling, touching) and can help certify important considerations to an event. So after reading that definition. I even have a witness, my BFF Bren whom I called right after it happened telling him, “She kissed back! On the lips like that! She was feelin me, she puckered from her OWN free agency!” I always imagined a first kiss to be like we are driving to the airport, she fake yawns, stretches her hands and magically finds her fingers interlocking with mine, then as she drops her prince off, our eyes meet and the he slowly leans in and she leans in closer and then magic. Haha so I count that as our 1st kiss even though Sarah doesn’t. Our “2nd” kiss sure was magic though. 🙂
Jay jay jay…I bet you never called B stop lying! and you held my hand first, i would never!
Who proposed? Jay. He also did a fake one 3 days into our dating. Yep, he was kinda overly- obsessed I tell ya. When he walked me out to my car, he opened my door then knelt down and said, “I have a question to ask you.” while looking intently into my eyes. Then he pulls out a black velvet box from his pocket. My eyes get huge and I’m thinking, “Is this guy really freakin’ serious?” and he opens the box ever so slowly while never leaving my eyes and it’s….dun dun dun…pearl earrings. I was so relieved. Hahaha. He always says now how I should’ve just said yes back then. ^ ^
Who proposed? Me. I did a fake one 3 days into our dating. Yep she wanted me I tell ya. When I walked her out to her car, I opened her door for her and then knelt down and I said “Sarah I have something to tell you.” While looking intently into her eyes. I then pulled out a black velvet box from my pocket. Her eyes got HUGE and then I said “Sarah, this has been the best 3 days of my life. I know we haven’t been dating long…but um, I really like you and just wanted…” and as I opened the box ever so slowly while never leaving her eyes, then dun dun dun…she said “YES JAY TYAU! I LOVE YOU I WANT TO MARRY YOU!!! I DO I DO!” (kay that was what I was hoping for to completely humiliate her! But as I opened the box I finished with “and I just wanted to say thanks for taking a huge chance with me” and opened the box completely to reveal some pearl earrings. She was so disappointed, I could tell. Hahaha. I always say now how she should’ve just said yes back then like her heart told her to. ^^
Hahaha you wish I said yes then!
Who has more friends? We both have A TON of friends. But I would say I have slightly more from various groups of people.
Who has more friends? We both have A TON of friends. But I would say she has WAY more from various groups of people while it’s very hard to get into “my group of friends” 😉
Who is more sensitive? Hmm this is a toss-up. I’m a cry baby and cry in stupid sentimental things but Jay is probably the most sensitive guy you’ll ever meet and many times is the girl in the relationship. I tell him many times, “Just talk to me and tell me how you feel! I can’t read your mind.” Not to mention he cried in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Enchanted, and BAWLED in Charlie. And I mean BAWL. He was bawling like one of his family member had died and left a 6″-6″ wet mark on the couch while I just starred at him in bewilderment. No joke.
Who is more sensitive? Hmmm this is a toss-up. She’s a cry baby and cry in stupid sentimental things (ex: pocahontas post) and so what if I like a good chick flick, I still can beat u up!
Who has more siblings? I beat him by one, I have 3 brothers and a sister and he’s got 2 brothers and a sister.
Who has more siblings? She beats me by one, She has 3 brothers and a sister and I got 1.5 brothers and 1.5 sisters (the half is Mikey Boy).
Who wears the pants? Definitely Jay. I’m old-fashioned and I like having him wear the pants. But if something does come up that I feel very strongly about (it hasn’t really happened yet), then I’m sure I would have it my way. 😉 Basically I own him. Haha jk!
Who wears the pants? Definitely ME! Sarah claims she’s old-fashioned and I wear the pants, the shirt, the slippers the whole shebang! But if something does come up that she feels very strongly about (it’s MY way or the HIGHWAY! …and she knows that) then I’m sure I’d be open to listening to what she has to say. Basically I’m always right and she’s usually wrong. Haha no jk!
Ha! See you at home! 😛
Kami says
ha ha. Those were awesome! And don’t worry Sarah, I believe you over Jay, any day! 🙂 Can you “tag” me and I’ll do the same post on my blog? he he.
Cam and Lohi says

darcie says
sarah, i hope you’ve stepped up your singing game since we did karaoke at your house. you were definitely on key but sat in a ball on a chair and were the volume level of a mouse chirping.
Ginny Huo says
Ha you guys are so funny…and yes I am here to witness the first kiss incident…and I back up sarah 110% 🙂
George, Jenny, and Carlitos says
This is by far the funniest post ever… hilarious you two. Oh, and I loved the ‘I’m not, she’s not… but if you wanna hang with me i’ll give it one shot! top that! stop that!”
That was one of my favorite movies from back in the day. 🙂

Hi Sarah,
I don't know you by I found your blog through this link and that. I am an avid and very gifted sewer, and I am AMAZED and how clever you are with your DIY repurposed sewing. But I also loved this post about you and your husband. I don't know you two and yet I found myself laughing out loud. Thanks for being so inspiring and having your blog open.
