hi chicory,
it's okay, think your BS will understand, we brides always want everything to be perfect for that one most important day in our life.
hi sandy,
actually i think 1.5K is quite okay, you should read that some couples actually top up thousands of dollars for the photos. so, when do we get to see your mei mei pictures
?

Hi Teatree!

Hi Chicory!
so how? you decided your MU artist? my BS din even ask me for my opinion. when we initally sign up, he told me tat he be giving me Eric for the makeup, den until one week b4 the trial make up, I received a call from Ann instead. when she told me tat BS got her as a MU artist for my wedding, I find it quite weird. coincidentally, there was another couple who was having trial makeup as well when I went for trial make up, my hubby overheard the couple asking him abt Eric and BS says that he is busy, so cannot make it! hump..see? din even tell me!

hi cutichar...
happened to chance upon your posting on eric, MU artist...
you are with silver lining right?? well then i can prob tell you the reason for why eric was not assigned to you... i'm using eric for my MU and i'm with jit as well... but 'coz eric's charges are slightly more exp than the other MU artists, jit usually will not pass him any brides unless the brides are willing to top up... but for me, i think eric is well worth the top up. his MU is really good and he's very frenly and concerned... but i'm sure ann is just as good so no worries
sorry girls for intruding

Hi Teatree & Cutiechar
our pic should be ready by 1st week of Dec. I guess only till then i can scan in my pics to share with U girls..
Hi Cutiechar,
after adding that 1.5, our total package cost is nearly 4.5k lor..
we printed inserts instead.. who is yr printer? if U hv the time, it is good that U start looking for the design and font u want.. as you need to give them some time to prepare the draft and for U to approve.. at least takes about 3-5days in between..
food tasting is for 10 pax... how about yrs??

Bonjon, she's jus like me, we will endure pain lor. She did realise some pain, but she jus take pain killer or such. I've jus read her report, sounds very serious but when she discharge, they only prescribe panadol to her. Very strange lor.
Some update from me, i'll booked tickets to go Thailand for 5D4N. Then in december we'll go Aussie provided she can travel

hi cutiechar,
i've never tried any of those skin peling thing-y. hee... but maybe you can try teatree scrub from the bodyshop, can also put some of the teatree oil on your back so that it will be smooth on your AD. think teatree products don't peel the outer layer of your skin, instead, they reduce the discoloration due to blemishes.
i know there are some beauty salons which offer skin peeling for back. but better don't try that nearer your wedding day. the last thing you want is to have some rashes on your back on your AD.
hi sandy,
i'm so excited to see your pictures
but december is still quite far from now...

Hi cutiechar,
I will be using the other make-up artist my BS arrange for me, i am going for trial this thursday. Yah lor, that's how we feel also, quickly get the PS done so that we won't feel so stress nearer to wedding
. Oh, at least you like Ann's make-up too, so it actually doesn't matter that your BS did not inform you of the change.
.
Wow, you all are very efficient leh, already met up with Connie and started printing your cards already, i haven't even collected the invites from my hotel yet
. I also have very sensitive skin, so i haven't go for any facial... afraid to have break-out... hee
Hi Sandgirl,
After top-up, your package is $4.5k, actually i also feel it's quite alright
. Me too want to see your beautiful pictures.
Hi teatree,
Good Morning
!!

Meow,
So sorry to hear about your MIL.
Hey! Look on the bright sight, dear.
A little confidence sometimes helps the patient recover faster.
Doc.recently found out a big tumour lump in my FIL's kidney, if burst might be cancerous. We were rather worried about letting him undergo the operation as he's in his 80s. At such an old age, re-covery will not be as compared to young people.
But he still decided to go ahead with the operation. Amasingly, he's discharged 3days after the operation & now depending on half on the kidney & his still go to his bread shop everyday.
Maybe becos of "Ya Kun" & "Killney" big orders from his bakery that keeps him going...Hee!
So dun worry Meow! Our prayers for her & your family.

found something interesting 2 read which i plucked from another thread.. it's a wise piece of reading to guide us in our next stage in life..
Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have.
"Wow, this girl in my office is a real looker. I'm crazy about her because
she's also understanding, intelligent, tender - so many things that my
spouse is not."
Somewhere along the way,
you'll find a woman or a man who will be more charming or sensitive.
More alluring.
More thoughtful.
Richer.
Have greater sex appeal.
And you will find a woman or man who will need you and pursue you and
go loco over you more than your spouse ever did.
Because no wife or husband is perfect.
Because a spouse will only have 90% of what you're looking for.
So adultery takes place when a husband or wife looks for the missing 10%.
Let's say your wife is melancholic by nature. You may find yourself
drawn to the pretty clerk who has a cherry laughter.
Or because your wife is a homebody in slippers and pyjamas, smelling of
garlic and fish oil, you may fall for a fresh-smelling young sales
representative that visits your office in a sharp black blazer, high
heels, and a red pencil-cut skirt.
Or because your husband is the quiet type, your heart may skip a beat when
you meet an old college flame who has the makings of a talk show host.
But wait! That's only 10% of what you don't have.
Don't throw away the 90% that you already have!
Add to your spouse's 90% the 100% that represents all the years that you
have been with each other.
The storms you have weathered together.
The unforgettable moments of sadness and joy as a couple.
The many adjustments you have made to love the other. The wealth of
memories that you've accumulated as lovers.
Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have.
But faithfulness happens when you start thanking God for what you already
have.
But I'm not just talking about marriage. I'm talking about life!
About your jobs.
About your friends.
About your children.
About your lifestyles.
Are you like the economy airline
The main message:
If you start appreciating what you have right now, wherever you are is
FIRST CLASS!
