Hi all!
Feeling really frustrated. The printer printed my inserts wrongly on the wrong paper with wrong printing method. It was supposed to be hot stamping but they made a mistake.
Now have to wait for it.
Also, they set the folds wrongly on my cards and now, they look a bit off centre.
Looking rather wierd and unbalanced. So upset over the whole thing.
My renovation contractor is also giving us a headache. So many problems, and the designer didn't even bother going to check it out. She just kept pestering us for payment. When she went home to KL, she told us to coordinate with the contractors ourselves! What do we pay her for?
Was so pissed off with her that I told her to 'do her job' first before she can expect any payment. Don't ever go to 'Max's Image' in Ginza Plaza. They suck! They're always at those furniture fairs/interior designers fair.

Hi Blossom,
That will depend on whether you get a new car or old car. We bought a very old one....about 8 over years old. Maintenance per month is somewhere along $400 plus for repayment of loan (considered low as this is loan from parents)..... and close to $300 for petrol.... not forgetting parking charges every month, the yearly road tax ($800 over for a 1.6L car).....
Though the above looks scary, but we got the car cos of the inconvenience we faced without it when we were preparing for wedding and doing house reno. No regrets

Bluechin,

Furthermore, lesser pple talk in this forum so will be very quiet then Dec we should start new forum for all Nov Mrs liao. Shall we still maintain in this forum or start something new?

Cherly,
i think we had decided to continue using this thread since we all still want to keep the record of the largest no of postings in SB Forum.
angelia did mention that she will still be chatting in this forum till she starts her leave.(i think) and by the time she leaves for her long leave. The November Brides who got wedded at the beginning of the month would be back liao.

hi cowie,
thks for sharing! what u say is pretty much the same as what i've expected.
yup, that sounds scary but the inconvenience we face now is really disturbing. imagine im at punggol and there is only one bus that service the area. i have to take a bus to sengkang before i can go anywhere.
we used my fil's car during our wedding preps but now we cant. so we are thinking of getting one ourselves. but we are a little hesitant because we just burnt a great hole in our pocket for the hse and wedding, economy is not getting any better, really wonder whether we should have any more commitments.

Hi Blossom,
I second Cowie. We too have a car and we really need one too... considering the distance between Hougang and my mum's place. In fact, we calculated that as long as both of us are working.. the financing of the car should be no problem.
Like Cowie... no regrets owning a car...

hi cowie,
just to add on.... the past week we had spent quite a lot on cab because we went to my parents' home for dinner and it was rather late when we left... very sian to take bus so we took cab loh....
my hubby me that the cab fare for the past week was about the petrol cost for 2 weeks! we stay very close to our workplace actually but the public transport is not really developed to cater to our needs. even after the mrt is up, it wont helped us either.
but i still feel a car is somehow a luxury... sigh! how i wish i can drive... there is free parking at my office so can somehow reduce the cost of maintaining the car.

U r facing same problem as me, my MIL also said need to buy <FONT COLOR="ff0000">red</FONT> color one which I don like but <FONT COLOR="119911">bo bian</FONT> and have to buy. That day, we went to Chinatown to buy those basin, towel and happened to see one red color so we just buy from them.
I think no need whole pcs <FONT COLOR="ff0000">bright red</FONT> as long as the bedsheet got some red will do.

Angeline,
beauties in the eyes of the beholders.... sounds familiar?
Angeline & BlueChin,
so how's the meeting last week (the one that BlueChin cited: 'meet with beautiful girls')? Have a good chat?
My mom bot 'si dian jin' yesterday for my wife. Me and my wife went to the printer that my hotel and BlueChin recommened (TDragon), I saw BlueChin's card on the shelve. The sales lady commented that BlueChin is a very nice lady.
I'm so glad 'si dian jin' is settled.
Yesterday, We attended the last lesson to the pre-marriage course. It was fun yesterday, pot-luck dinner, and photography time when the course masters presents a gift at end of the lesson.
Now we left to make decision on whether to include picture in the cards and to meet Nick (photographer) tomolo.
Star Fruit,
cheer up! I know the feeling when sometimes my wife is too engross in preparing for our wedding and neglect my feeling. I told her, it's us that is important (the marriage of a lifetime), and not the wedding day. She agrees with me, but sometimes she still get too engross in prep work as she enjoys it.

Hi Blossom,
Do take care..
I just came back to work today.. after on leave for 18 days !!! Wow !! Everyone commented that I looked radiant.. 
Anyway, do work out the finances with your hubby..
Getting a 8 year old car may be a great idea as well..
As for wedding photo.. I got this really nice one from Popular and it is $20.50.. cos I took a lot of pics using my digital camera and got another fren to take pics at the reception.. so on top of the ones taken by Monica.. I have like 200-300 photos as well. We managed to do up the New Zealand ones last nite.. exactly one album.. got the album from Popular as well..
Do take care..

Cherly...does the pillow and bolster cover also need to buy red color? how much is the red bedsheet from Chinatown?
Vincent...guess all gals like wedding prep work
and they will love it more when the guy agree to watever the gal suggests and shut up when come to paying for these "suggestions" heheee
Vincent...guess all gals like wedding prep work
Jowie,
yes, I think so, all gals are alike in these things. 'Shut Up' sounds a bit hush(I was shocked to see these words)! Yes, I learnt to seal my lips when it comes to money (paying for this, paying for that). I used to complained to my wife that she wants this, she wants that for our wedding (as we are tight in budget), but even I complained, she still carry on with it (as she feels it's necessary, but men feel it is optional).

Hi Blossom,
Take care! Did your Dr give you any medicines for your rash? If you need any pointers on what are the type of medicines suitable for curbing allergy prob, just drop me a mail yah?
As for the car, just calculate based on an old one lah... we were pretty cash-strap the other time when considering about getting a car. Somehow, getting a car with COE that still has just about 1 year or so to go is cheaper. If after that period of time you still like the car and it is still functioning well, then just extend the COE. That is what we are intending to do. But when shopping for second hand car, beware of the price the advertise and the actual price. Felt very cheated a couple of times when doing car shopping
(beware: it is as tiring as wedding preps and house reno!!)
I got quite a nice album for my ROM photos from one of those shops that develop photos....Photo Finish...I think. It is those slot in types, and you can put in more pages as required. There is also an empty frame in front of the album for you to put a cover picture....think the word "Our Wedding" is on the cover too..... Comes in either white or black inserts
