    Catholic Engaged Encounter

    sweeeet: Nope. We didn't fill in that portion. No priest recommended us to EE anyway, so how to fill in? Haha.

    FH uninterested in wedding preps

    Have you ever tried having a talk about it? Find out why is it that he's not interested? Or perhaps there's some other reason? you should voice out your unhappiness as well. Honestly, about your paying so much, I don't it's fair too. I feel that he should contribute at least half. Otherwise...

    Short getaway for ROM

    Oh! 1 very important thing. If you take the overnight bus to Ipoh and arrives early in the morning, when you get off the long distance bus at Ipoh, Gopeng, you have to get to the old town bus interchange to get to Cameron Highlands. The first bus that leaves Gopeng terminal to Cameron Highlands...

    Short getaway for ROM

    evie: Look around on the net and look in guide books. Honestly, we could have spent less money, but it was our 1st time, on our own with no guidance. Also, we spent RM90 each on a tour to see the Rafflesia flower. For a start, we took the bus from Larkin to Ipoh, and then from Ipoh to Cameron...

    Do you wear your engagement/proposal ring everyday?

    blur: A lot of pple can have engagement w/o ROM. Going thru ROM means you are legally married. Engagement is just a promise to get married. I propose to my then-GF and now she's my fiancée but we're only going to ROM on the actual wedding date (which is quite some time away from now lah)...

    Cameron Highlands

    Not so much of Malays manning the stores actually. You'll be surprised by the population there. A lot of Chinese and Indians. If you know Cantonese, it's a plus. Most, if not all, of the Chinese there speak Cantonese.

    Cameron Highlands

    icedrops. Eating places at Tanah Ratah close rather late. We've eaten dinner till 11pm before. Fresh veges is easy to find in Cameron Highlands lah ah. They grow veges there after all. The young corn is so good you can eat it raw (in fact, they taste better raw than the cooked ones). Oh...

    Cameron Highlands

    I spent 4 days in Cameron Highlands recently, so let me share a bit here. Me and my GF didn't go on a tour there, so we took coaches up and booked our own room (in Twinpines, Tanah Rata). Actually, you don't really have take cab. There are bus services between the towns and the markets up to...

    Catholic BTB of 2007

    Well... I would respect their decision not to kneel. If they are of another religion, and don't feel comfortable kneeling during mass/prayer, I think it's completely fine.

    Catholic BTB of 2007

    Ah... So the table is wrong. Haha. Your FH doesn't like EE because he's afraid that it'll touch a lot on religion? Or because need to stay over the weekend? Anyway, I can fully understand you wanting a full mass. I'm sure that the priest should understand too.

    Hi Haze, as we said, yes you can. What I was asking you to clarify is whether you went for EE in Jan 07. Haha.

    Short getaway for ROM

    Cameron Highlands. Very cheap if you go on a budget. My GF and I spent less than RM500 each for a trip we went on recently. Spent 4 days in Cameron Highlands and 1 day in Ipoh. Booked the rooms and transport ourselves. And Cameron Highlands is a nice place to just relax. In fact, you can...

    Catholic Engaged Encounter

    Precisely why I'm so desperate now. Haha. I had to go out to the public to get surveys, and even then, I only got a handful. Far from the target of 150 my lecturer wanted. Thanks anyway.

    Catholic BTB of 2007

    sea_blue: I just deduced from the table above that Haze joined us. In the table which lists all of your dates, priests, churches etc? In the last column, it states that Haze joined EE Jan 07. Can Haze clarify? Honestly, I also felt like dozing off at times. Haha.

    Catholic BTB of 2007

    Haze: I'm not a girl, but in any case, it's not that you can't have full mass when one party is not a Catholic. It's just recommended you have a service instead of full mass as a service is shorter. Since it's most likely that the family and friends of the non-Catholic make up of mostly...

    Catholic Engaged Encounter

    There are no sharing, but we do interact lah. Over dinner, before the sessions start etc. That's how JMI remembered me so well over the lipsticks issue. But the most important parts of the whole thing are the times to talk to your other half privately. P.S. Please do me a favour and help...

    Jmi. That's so amazing. Then you'll really have a custom made wedding gown. It'll be so... special. You must really thank your mom then.

    Catholic Engaged Encounter

    I totally agree with Kristen. It's very important to go there mentally prepared to let go of everything and just focus on the weekend. It was a very nice weekend for the both of us. For one thing, it was the first time we had a whole weekend to ourselves for a long time. Haha. We booked in...
