~Pictures Updates~

Just a few quick updates plus PICTURES:

1. Yes, Fred..as requested, he's now our official Ah Mat for our big day..I'll make sure his car would be decorated on the day before, so that he can drive his car proudly to work haa..=)

2. Have already decided on my gowns..nice service i can say, just that some of the staffs have weirdo tastes..like me wearing a gown which all agree that I look like a ma-ma-san, but she suddenly say: oh! very nice! very elegant!

All of us were like -_-"" does she mean that I looked like an ELEGANT MAMA SAN????wtf..

Pleasant view of the studio.. ours is Jazz Bridal by the way..

A little peep at the bridal gown I've chose ;)

Yes, my HTB sitting down with a tie that another groom-to-be wore for his photoshoot. This pic is him awake..he slept during the other fittings...duhz..

3. Have dyed my hair today at Sandstorm by Monsoon.. expensive la!!!heart pain.. but at least it turn out ok..not too bad la.. just dyed a darker colour so that my previous highlights are covered, the person recommended the colour so that during photo taking, the colour wont be too bright till it outstands weirdly..

It looks black here, but its actually dark reddish brown..

4. Went to try our ring this Wed @ Love & Co before it was sent for engraving. The lady, Evelyn Quah, who served us is very good, love their service there..when they say they will get back to you, they really will. And also, she asked if we are interested in taking some shots for Love & Co, while writing some wishes for their 3rd year anniversary. Our pictures would be online together with our wishes. We did and here's what we got as a token of appreciation.

Pretty elegant box

Their limited edition watches! Nope, we wont wear it, it just doesnt suit us.. =P

5. Location is more or less confirmed.. but just some pics of the place we initially wanted :

Naumi Hotel

Haiz..nice view but think they should do something with their menu for the price that couples have to pay..Like paying for shark fins but only getting starch... sad lei..

Anyway, here's a peek at the place we are going to choose..

My favourite area of all!! And its so obvious why..ha!

The below pictures are just random..

Oh, for those that dont know, this is the pic that Sotong used to propose.. see the ring on the Gundam's hand?

A close up view of the ring from Citigem.. No how many carat for this ring, its just a simple ring. I dont bother about how many carat ring i will get, because Im not the type who believe in: the bigger the diamond = how sincere the guy is. Whether he is sincere or not, you will know.. =)

~~Some Decisions~~

Yup, Sotong and I have decided on the location for our ROM. Its the FUSHIA area..hehe.. The number of pax has increase from 40+ to almost double, thats because that place can accommodate up to 100+ pax. We gonna take 2 levels, 2nd and 3rd. We've got pics but I dont wanna put it up first is lazy, second is to keep the suspense. haa..

Next Sunday (11 0ct 2009) is our gown fitting, cant wait la!! excited =)

~~cont from previous post....~~

Come to think about it, after typing out and reading the previous post, its quite obvious on which place to choose ya? LOL...

~~Updates~~

Yesterday (26 Sept 09)

Went to an ex colleagues' house warming at JW. They bought a 4-room flat for 337k, the location is quite near MRT. Quite big lei. Then after, we went to Hazel's ROM cum housewarming at Queenstown. I love her place, so big and nice.. She always have nice taste for decos, except her gold and jade liking..HA!

After that, we went to catch a movie with the usual gang. Watched Accident by Louise Koo and Richie Ren. The story plot was so-so, but the whole movie is slow pace..making me feel like sleeping.. Not a bad movie to catch but totally NOT WORTH the weekend movie ticket price.

Our wedding plans updates...

I think we sort of settled a number of things. We've settled our:

1. JP
2. photographer(s)
3. gown fitting and photo taking dates
4. our rings.
5. But most importantly, our venue, is not really settled yet. We are still decided between 2 places. One with better food, one with better scenic view. We like both places..(Food or views?? Comments anyone??)

A little detail on the places we wanna choose:

Place 1

VERY nice view
A night stay in hotel room (meaning a place to change)
Menu looks pathetic
More expensive
Event coordinator abit the slow in responding
Decos to the minimum
No air-con (scared will be hot if no wind)
Space is quite limited
Limit to 45 pax

Place 2

Nice view of SG river
No place to change la, no hotel room too..
Menu looks YUMMY
Cheaper
Events coordinator unknown yet
Decos not too bad, its FUSHIA!! HA!!
Air-con
More comfy sitting
Can invite about 60 pax

Comments comments!! choose where? View or food??

~~Sick~~

Now its my turn to be sick. Down with flu, sore throat, cough and fever. Sickening. Hate to be sick. I have to stay home and do nothing. Tired...

~~Happy~~

Weird..There is something wrong with my blogger. I cant change my font type, size or colour. I cant upload pics or any links. So weird..

Anyway, Sotong proposed yesterday.It was well, a funny incident. I found the gift (again). haha..I was up preparing for Yiru's wedding and the something rang. I was looking for it but I didnt know what I was looking for. My mind then only thought of shutting that bloody thing up to so that he and my sis wont be woken up by that sound. I thought that it might be his phone so i was searching his bag. I know its not my phone because I recognize my own alarm tone. I felt the vibration and ta da!! I found it! Sotong accidentally set the alarm on the phone he bought for me. Yes, its my N97 =).wahaha.. But its not done..

I told Sotong that I found the phone when he woke up, and he kept complaining that his plan are wasted. Then he used his phone to call the new phone (it has a prepaid card in it). The background shows 2 of the newly fixed gundam toy, one kneeling down on a knee, holding a ring, another standing up. He edited the pic with the words:"Will you marry me?" His profile pic: the proposal ring. Haha..so sweet..

Well, he though I saw the ring, but in fact I didnt. He planned this whole thing with his colleagues and my friends. He planned to proposed during our dinner time with Huiqi & Jason and Fred & Pabby at TCC in Keppel Bay. Haha.. But this proposal I wont forget, because both times, his plans failed.. A memorable one for sure.. =)

We've also signed our bridal studio with Jazz Bridal studio. hmm.. I think its not very expensive, just nice within our budget.

Went to Yiru's ROM yesterday morning at Furama Riverfront. So happy for her that she's now formally Mrs Chua =)

Pics come later..because I really dunno what happen to my blogger.. haha

~~Random~~

ALmost 2am and I'm still online, surfing for something that interest me. I'm bored and Thank Goodness its already Friday =)
____________________________________________________________________

Met up with Sotong just now for dinner and wanted to go to Tamp 1 for Frolick Yogurt. Guess who I saw? haha..Its Louise and Jillian. Stayed out with them for a while.
____________________________________________________________________

I though laxative are meant to react fast? I took mine since morning and only later in the evening, the effect starts to kick in. I'm not sure it is because its like that, or that Im really slow in reacting to meds/supplements.

Nono, I dont take them for slimming purposes, but I have severe constipation + piles. I lately bleed alot when I shit. So I need to soften my stools for easy exit. Think I really got to change my diet..have more veg and fruits.. Chilli does count isnt it? Haha..
____________________________________________________________________

I've been craving for Buffalo Wings since Sotong gave me a pic of the Spicy Buffalo Wings that has 30 levels of spiciness. I love spicy food but I dont think Im that mad for such. I still need my mouth to talk and my stomach to digest.
____________________________________________________________________

I suddenly have the urge to become a MAMA soon!!!
Ok, I admit, this urge is not a sudden thing.. It has been ALWAYS.. a dream..a goal in life..LOL

I want to have a

Baby Rabbit
Baby Horse/Goat
Baby Monkey
Baby Piggy

Wahaha..Not all la, but at least a Rabbit for a start, then the other babies can come later.. There are reasons why I dont want the other Chinese Zodiac.. Like

Tiger: Sotong thinks that the character will clash with him. Im totally fine with Baby Tigers..

Dragon: For what rush with other kids as its the year where birth rates shoots up?

Snake: Just the thought of snakes makes me turn off.. YUCKS..slimy and UGLY!! Nope, i dont know any snake peepz..

Cow, Dog, Rooster: Ok la, normal normal..

4 kids is ALOT!!! Ya, I know. I want but can "rear" them anot is another thing. Haha..We'll see in 10 years, if I have these babies I want. Haha..

~~ Feeling happy and relieved~~

Finally, I've made up my mind on a decision that would change my career path. Now, everything is settle and I feel a sense of relieve. I'm glad I made the call.. Im happy that I've made a choice, but I still hope this is the right one. We'll see in the future..
__________________________________________________________

I just packed my bag, I overturned it and everything comes out from every pocket. Even POPCORN BITS.. wtf
__________________________________________________________

I went into FAcebook to look at photos. I saw this guy, my so-call friend, had a girlfriend now. Well, He's one childish guy, who doesnt believe in LOVE. He used to but yea..It was years ago. I really despise him, not because he dont believe in LOVE, but because of his character. He sucks as a guy, sucks even more as a human.

~~Plan failed~~

I've ruined 2 suprises that Sotong planned to propose. But it wasnt totally my fault too.. Whahaha! Am I clever or what?

The first one he did was to cook the spagetthi wif Ba Teng for me. But I'm totally clueless about him wanting to propose. Yes, he bought flowers and make the whole atmosphere soo romantic, but I just thought that he wanted to celebrate our anniversary, thats all. We had a quarrel the previous day, so he sort of changed his plans and he told me his original plans. That when I know he planned to proposed. LOL. Call him stupid that he mentioned it, call me blur for not knowing whats going on until he said.

The second was yesterday. My hp was low batt so he told me to look for the charger in his drawer. Oh well, found the gift he wanted to use to propose. Wahaha!! I saw this Swarovski Crystal box in his drawer, so I opened it while asking him what is that. He just looked at me opening it. Now he blame me that he got to get another one because he cant re-use it. LOL

I told him to propose yesterday then, to save the trouble, he say no. So fine...Let's see what other suprises he can come up with without me knowing this time round. WAHAHAHA...

~~Weird~~

Is it just my blogger or is there something wrong with blogger today? I tot the way I'm writing my post is weird. Not the usual where I can change the colour of my font, or the size, etc..weird..
Anyway, Today's my last day at my co. Kinda miss the people in there. Oh well, its not a wise choice to stay because of people. I jus hope that in the next job, I can work with people I like.. Just a wish...

~~House-Shopping~

Been looking around for houses lately with Sotong and nope, we have not decide on where we wanna get. We are currently keeping our options really open, as in we do not have a specific location, type of housing (private or hdb, 3 rooms or 4 or 5..etc..). The only main thing that we are looking for is the location and the pricing of course.

We do not plan to get a car in the near future, so we got to get some where really convenient. And convenient meaning near to MRT and not having the need to take those feeder buses. Even for MRT, we are kinda limiting it to the east and west line, because of our working areas (currently or future)

We both are in the sort of specialised industry, so all our working areas are sort of in the west, and even further in the west, like Tuas. Since MRT is already up in Joo Khoon, so it would be super convenient if we can get a house at any of the stops along the east-west line.

Still looking but too wondering if its the right time. Sotong wants to go overseas to study. Maybe we should get it after he comes back?? Im just so confused..

~~Happy~~

Bwhahaha... An agency called me and asked if I need a job, I asked her what job. She said Food Tech. I asked if its ******, she said ya, I told her i applied before but no news, and she say she will try help me sent again. I forwarded my resume to her. Waiting for her news now. Its the JOB I want in THAT CO!!!! Yaya, its the co I've been talking about!! I'm so excited now. I know THAT CO haven call me yet, but I'm just happy. Ok, Im nuts, nuts about THAT JOB. haha..

~~Bad Stomach Day~~

Terrible and now I know:

Chilli + Yogurt = Lao Sai

Yesterday, Jillian came to pick me and Louise up from work. Louise wanted to eat Frolick Yogurt and I wanted to try it..hehe.. Its quite nice, especially the granola toppings. Crunchy and sweet. *drools* Sure to go back for more =)

I also met up with Ting to accompany her to have dinner. I had dinner at home. My mum cooked Maggie Mee, or rather fry the maggie mee.. I think I added too much chilli or that the chilli is spoilt. I bet its the double combo of above causes the Lao Sai.

I was already at the bus stop this morning on my way to work but I had to rush home to shit first as its coming out!! BTH. End up, I shitted till so late that I had to take a cab to work. duhz... $13 bucks worth of shit..

~~I HATE RUDE PEOPLE!!~~

This morning, I was taking the same bus to work. My bus queue shifted from its original position as there were some renovations going on. a

After queueing for a while, there's this FUGLY 30-40+ Indian/Eurasian Lady, came up to me and ask:

"Is this the queue for bus 22?"

"yup"

"Does this bus goes to Paya Lebar?"

"Which part of Paya Lebar you want to go?"

" Does this bus goes to Upper Paya Lebar? This is what I'm asking.." This time, she sounded RUDE and demanding. WTF. You are asking for people's help and yet you are giving such lousy attitude?

"Ya!" And you've guess it. Not even a "thank you"!!

After a queueing a while, she demanded:

"Can you move in abit, its blocking people's way." Fugger. She's the one blocking people's way! I was already leaning against the railing, how much more she want me to move? So, I just moved a teeny weeny bit, just to please her.

"Can you move in abit more?" I moved another teeny weeny bit. Its as good as not moving. I didnt care about her.

Then, I was taking somethign out from my bag and accidentally hit her elbow. Then she said:
" I dont understand how come people just dont want to move in front".

And she went right to the front of the queue = Cutting queue. But since the guy in front of me never say anything, so Im fine. (Im initially 2nd in queue)

She waited quite long for the bus then she asked the guy in front:

"How come this bus is so slow? What time does this bus come normally? Is this the only bus that goes to Upper Paya Lebar?"

The guy answered her questions shortly and she kept quiet. Its lucky she didnt ask me because Im going to answer her: " I dont know. Go check the board yourself!" Shit, why didnt she ask me!! I hope she FALLS DOWN today. Bloody Idiot!

~~Sprees~~


Dr Jart Blemish Base Essence Cake (oily skin type)Etude House Moistful Massage Mask.

Bought these from Gleaming Skin spree. Well, I'm not sure if these suit me anot. Just giving it a try..I hope I wont regret.. =X

~~ Cuteness!!~~

Went to watch Ice Age 3(3D) with Sotong, Louise, Jillian and her bf. Thumbs up for the story plot. But as for the 3D effects, it was kinda disappointing. No "WOW" effect at all. I didnt get the "close up" feel. The trailers they played was much better..

But the cute characters make the show enjoyable. Like...

Baby Dinosaurs..with different eye colours on each of them..
Plus Baby Peaches... Awww...

My next movie stop: + Harry Potter + Coraline + G-Force +
=)

~~Stubborn~~

duhz.. the company I always wanted to get in called me in for interview for a job that I'm not interested in. Why why why????

I applied for the job I wanted in that company AGAIN. I know I very "bu yao lian" but I DONT CARE!! And am going to call the lady up again on monday to ask her about the position I applied. HA! She's going to get alot of miss calls when she's back in office =P

This is what I will do until I hear these words: " No, you are not suitable for this job." Thats when I'll give up.

~~Additions~~

Just to add a few "collections" to the previous post blogs of reviews..

This one is a Watsons' fan! I thought this would be useful for people like me, who likes to walk in and out Watsons, regardless where it is. They always have very interesting stuffs which you cant find anywhere else. Just like the Eyebrow & Lash Growth Accelator I got from there =)

Makeup Stash

This one is for those who are super super into BB creams and very confused on which one to choose.

Kimiko

~~Etude House~~

I was reading the blogs I posted yesterday and came to know that there is Etude House right here in SG!! Its located at Plaza Singapura. Opened in June.. The shop is soo bright la, you cant miss it. But I missed it when I was there last weekend. -_-""

Pic is from Lotus Palace

They were giving free samples of this Aqua Sherbet Gel Cream to everyone who goes into the shop. But of course, its not the whole jar la, its just a sample pack. Have yet to try it but looks very very moisturising. Seriously, i dont know what is this for.. =X


Bought this from Watsons. $12.90. I wanna try this on my eyebrows. The parts with very very fine hair.. Am going to apply it on my lashes too!! Haha..Only need to apply at night, so I shall try first. I think if got effect, you all can see. If no, means its lousy. haha..
