Irene,
u verie funni.... WW4 hor.....
I'm also a bit upset with mil. Yesterday nite she pulled my hubby to the kitchen after i left for my bedroom (that's after breaking the news to her that we r going Perth) and she said the words, <FONT COLOR="119911">"SIAN1 ZAN3 HOU3 ZHOU4"</FONT> to my hubby which i overheard when i came out from my room. After that i check with hubby and he reconfirmed it.
And this morning before i left for work, she mumbled <FONT COLOR="0000ff">"I thot u dun want to go Honeymoon?" </FONT>i told her that we were sourcing again after the Bali bombing and that day we actually consulted her for some advices till she said that <FONT COLOR="ff0000">"everywhere's not safe,Only Sentosa is safe!"</FONT> That was when i juz merely commented, "I think dun go for Honeymoon in this case!"
Then she insist that we get home the next morning after our wedding..... i think to serve tea to her. But i've two nites stay at Hyatt. Think i'll juz wake up early that morning..... and go back and serve her tea. *Dunno whether i need to wear Kwa or not hor*
Regarding the Honeymoon, i think becos my hubby's her Bao Bei only son so she's very protective of him. Many a times when we travel, she will nag and nag or get angry and not talk to us unless she tag around. Sometimes, we even have to say we r putting at my mum's place.

U and Hubby... mid 30s... nah.. u dun look that you are in your 30s... you look more like in your 20s..
<FONT COLOR="0077aa">angelia</FONT>:

bluechin,
OIC.
maybe u should tell her Sentosa not very safe too.
I think if one is really afraid. Then the best is to RIP (rest in peace).
Coz now everywhere is a possibility for disaster and many actually predicted Indonesia won't get it but they did eventually. So what can we say.
Just pray for the best lor.
Don't be upset.
This week, me going to have the 'ban jia yi shi'.
Think his mother is doing this and then, my house not 100% ready for cleaning yet so pray hard I can have enough time to clean up before she does whatever she needs to do.
And the best is, I've got something on this saturday morning and yet the person (sensei) give her the timing from 11 to 1.
Hope she will dilly dally and do it only 12 + coz I doubt I could reach early. And i've got a feeling, if I late, she'll nag nag nag nag nag nag.
And I wonder how i'll react coz, if I've something on and cannot make it for this type of events, I don't allowed anyone to blame me. Moreover, I'm not the one who needs the 'ban jia yi shi'.

<FONT COLOR="aa00aa">irene,</FONT>
me oso intend to "an shen" this Sat leh.. timing is supposed to be between 11am - 1pm oso leh.. guess that's really the auspicious time of that auspicious day leh..
wah, u flat can be ready by this wkend ah? so fast.. actually mine oso not ready, still got a lot of touch up to do. see below postings which i posted at the Yew Tee thread.
actually wanted to hv the "ban jia yi shi" together this Sat as well, then can save all trouble.. if can't make it this Sat, then gotta postpone to next Sat (03 Nov), an alternative date given by the shifu we went to. but i forgot the timing liao.. dunno izzit is 3am - 12noon or 3pm - 12 midnite!! guess it shld be <FONT COLOR="ff0000">3am - 12noon</FONT> since usually "morning/daytime" is the more auspicious timings
guess this coming Thur (after work), Fri (after painter left) muz go new hse to clean up liao!!!
<FONT COLOR="119911">solid surface(SS) is up, but the gap like not even. beginning (near fridge base), the gap btw SS & wall is bigger, then as it runs towards the end of the kitchen, the gap gets smaller! asked the contractor, he said cos the kitchen not aligned. but he will check with the SS guy again to see if can fix or not.
last Sat went to "check" & guess the carpenter will hv a lot of touching up to do. even the contractor says after our job, the carpenter will prob need to go on a holiday! anyway, our contractor pretty accomodating.. says will try to fix up or change whatever we want for us. but hope he not juz "fu yan" us lah.
wardrobe also got problem.. asked them to remove a cabinet. after which they re-laminate, but din do properly, so one area like "popped up".
then there's last round of plastering(for lightings area) & painting touch up to do. contractor says prob will be a 1-day job lor.
then needs to change some tiles which are hollow. also asked him to change a wall tile for me cos got some holes on it.
the last thing to be done will be to fix some scratches on the MBR parquet flooring. hiaz.. dun think can get them to hv everything done b4 this Sat... guess gotta postpone my "an shen" date to 03 Nov liao.. but then hor, my new bedroom set coming on 02 Nov.. hiaz..
asked hubby to get the schedule from contractor.. hope can try to get him to do up everything (except touching up the parquet scratches) & handover b4 Fri. then i can "an shen" as per planned on Sat. then get my mum to go down open door for them when they want to do the parquet scratches, cos my dad dun wan them to anyhow enter the hse after we "an shen" lor.</FONT>
<FONT COLOR="0000ff">latest update from hubby is, this Friday the painter will come, then we'll be at CCKC in the afternoon so that if there's anything else for the painter to touch up, we let him noe & he can do on the spot. the parquet scratches will leave to next wk.
so Fri around noon will go buy my "guan yin", then Sat can "an shen" liao.. hurray!!!!!
talking abt water bills... last Sat the plumber came to install the sink.. then put so much water into the sink to show us it's okie.. wah, i so heart pain.. somemore our sink is those 1 big one, not those 2 small or 1 small, 1 drying recess area type.. then they "release" the water & told ur "release water liao is like that lor.. the sound will be like that" *pengz* my heart bleeding man!!!! even my mum (who's oso there) says so wasteful leh.. so much water!!</FONT>

Hi Angelia and Starfriut,
thanks for your advice. I don't have a lot of relatives coming,so maybe can spent a little more time for my actual day photography. As for my preparation, seems like almost done. Except ordering of cakes and buying of traditional stuffs. I have booked my honeymoon too. As for my album, I think it will be ready at the end of this month. I got back my samples and at the mean time, creating our website. Thinking of posting my pics on Singapore Brides, but a bit apprehensive becos after viewing so many nice brides, felt a bit 'pehseh' as I am rather big sized.
To All,
Do you have any suggestion where we should go for actual day photography?

Angelia,
I also went to check and did a pre-completion cleaning up so that this week won't have too many dust to clean up coz no time for cleaning.
Mine also needs quite a bit of touch up.
And the plumber actually crack a few tiles while drilling things into the master bathroom.
I also complain to the designer and site manager.
Along with are all the painting which i think needs to be redo... And also places that should not have paint ganna paint also.
Besides the window grilles got scratches.
of all, i think the common toilet is the most well done except that there is cigarette burn mark in the toilet which my hubby would note it to them.
In fact, today he going down to meet up with the contractor to go through the whole house.
Bluechin,
Cross our fingers. I do hope so too.
Now that the Monash case happens, I started to worry liao. Don't knoe what will happen next.
Though it might not be terrorist doing (as per papers) but I think it could be. Coz it's possible that they create chaos big or small every where to put fear in humans heart.
Pray hard and pray well.
For all, alive and dead.
For all well being.
And for the best of life

S'porean students shocked
They talk about the disbelief over the incident at the Melbourne university in phone interviews
By Laurel Teo and Ng Hui Hui
SINGAPOREAN Shannon Lim, 22, was taking a break in a student lounge at Monash University when a gunman rushed into a classroom in an opposite building and fired wildly yesterday morning.
Miss Lim, a communications and media studies student, said: 'I was reading an old copy of The Straits Times when I heard a loud bang. But I didn't know what had happened then. A girl came in later and said. 'I think somebody just got shot'.'
At that time, Miss Lim thought that it was a joke because no one had expected shooting to take place in the peaceful sprawling Clayton campus, which has about 20,000 students, including more than 200 Singaporeans.
'I was worried and didn't leave the building because I wasn't sure if the gunman had been caught,' she said in a telephone interview.
At that time, about 11.20 am local time, another Singapore student, Mr Abdul Meerasha, 24, was studying in the same building where the shooting took place.
He was then inside a study room two floors below the classroom where a mature student in his 30's opened fire at his classmates, killing two and injuring five others.
While he said he did not hear the sound of gunfire, he knew there was trouble when he heard a woman screaming.
'I caught a fleeting glance of her as she ran down, screaming, 'Somebody help me please!'. That was the scariest part of the whole thing,' he said.
'Then the building attendants started going up the escalator, even as more and more people started running down. They were shouting, 'Get out of the building! There's a gun! There's a gun!''
When he heard that, he and his friends grabbed their books and ran out too. The campus guards ushered them into the next building and told them to stay there.
'At that time, I was thinking, 'What's this? Some kind of terrorist act?'. Exams are next week, and somehow you don't think such things can happen here. Security has never been a concern here,' he said.
Another Singaporean student, Wong Sing Chuan, 23, said: 'I couldn't believe it. I've heard about such things happening in the US, but never in Australia. This is the first time and it happened so fast that I still can't believe it happened.'
Knowing that their families would be worried by the news of the shooting, the Singaporeans called home to tell their families they were all right.
When contacted, a spokesman for the Singapore Ministry of Foreign Affairs said none of the seven victims were Singaporeans.
Although the gunman had been caught, the shooting had unsettled the student community at the university.

Angelia,
me not having any 'shen'.
Just the so call moving house ceremony but I'm not moving any things yet.
By the way, my FMIL mention that on the GUO DA LI day, I have to pass the person who came all that my mum give me for them to take to new house. Do I pass all the things including my new clothes, new shoes etc? Coz I've more or less pack the new things liao... some from my mum, some i buy one.
Tot of passing it together so that i won't have to carry. Is that allright? or should i pass only those things that my mum give only?
Bluechin,
Yap. Make the best out of our life.
Labrador park is nice for photo taking.
I only go to a small part due to time constraint but think might have more but if want to stand at the grass to take pictures, be careful. GOT ANTS>>>>
Yap. When's the next outing?

hi gals,
sorry me didn't come in yesterday cos on course.
val, me with bridal zone, how abt u?
i think seldom brides carry flowers in the night, but if you want it, why not?
Yam Roses are the same as roses, just that its light purple in colour. i choose that becos my color theme is ivory and purple.
its always good to blend in the colour theme so that your wedding will look more wholesome..and classy in a way.
sorry i don't have any pictures on that, but yam roses are quite common in the market, can go to florists and see if they have it, just like some have blue roses.
wah berypig, going so many places, yah i better book my package fast..pinky how much is your package, for how many days and are u visting both north and south?
berypig, i go to shaw centre for my medi, you know lido orchard? pay abt $55 for both mani and pedi.
corie,
i have not fixed my appt yet, but it should be the first week of nov, you want to fixed date and time now with me? berypig, then we meet you for dinner quite late liao leh, finished at abt 8pm. how??

Jowie,
That's a lot of places for outdoor photoshooting for actual day.
Wow, your wedding's in 11 days..... so Fast!...... How's your preps so far. When r u starting your leave.
Pls do check that all your gowns r in good condition and the accessories eg, veil, gloves etc r also in, also the suits for your hubby as well.
For your album, do check that the no of pics is correct and the general condition of the pics. Do check that the pics r intact, meaning doesn't stick out.
Hope this helps.....

Jowie,
For the accessories..... i guess it depends on whether u r loaning them from your bridal or directly from the make up artist. If it's from the bridal, i believe they should give them to u when u collect your gowns.
dear, u better confirm your wine fast cos it's only 11 days u know. If u need help, i can help u..... Call me ok..... As for buffet, who will u be engaging?
Why scary? u scared to meet his parents ah.

wine i have to compare prices, but mayb save the hassle and order from Magnum which ohno recommended, MM is their customer so they can deliver the wines there directly and payment is after the dinner when we return the unused bottles, but they onli give 30% consignment leh
buffet I might be using Katong Catering...colleague strongly recommend...
