[blueberry]

Hi Yvonne,

Ok. I get mine here at Watson too..

Hi Nickel,

I tot of letting my hubby try the mandarin collar too. He seems interested in it.. But see how. If can get him any shirt.. He is busy later.. so can't bring him shopping.

Hi Exciting,

So fast? I just got the exams date. Will be end of next month and beginning of June. 3 papers.
Now busy with local and foreign revision. very siong. just had two full day classes yesterday. very tired... Having stiff neck now.. can't wait to go for a massage.
So far, I have only saw Forest.. other than that. are pics. So me no better than you too..
Maybe can join them in the gathering after exams.


What degree you taking?? Mine is a BSc.
Hi Babysheep,

Got to take care... if can, can split the stages?
Then won't be too taxing for you. For me, I try to get to read the books at least once a day for 30 min. That's the best.. I am taking leave to study at home too. so at least got some time.. or else dun know how.
What are you doing most weekend?

Hi Ladies,

This thread is moving so fast, I have not had the time to come in for the last couple of weeks, so how's everyone's preparation coming along.

Below is my updates,
I just went to the bridal shop to look at my album's photos before they bind it into the album. very please with it. Both the 20R (big) and the 8R (small) album are made up of different photos. Now just waiting for both the album to be ready for collection and the poster size bed head picture to be ready.
Already send my cards for printing, should be ready in 3weeks time.

Hi ladies,

Finding hard to keep up with the thread! Phew...
Confirmed our wine with red cellar at Stamford Court... not too bad, managed to stick to our budget of $15 per bottle

Been searching high and low for a pair of silver strappy shoes to go with my evening gowns. Any good suggestions from the floor?
Starting to feel the adrenalin pumping... there are so much to be done.... writing and sending out invitation cards, tailor made parents' gowns and suits, get GDL date, find suitable wedding songs.... etc etc... really worried that we might miss out on doing some stuff...
Anyone doing food tasting this month??

Hi Ladies,
Happy that some of you have already chosen ur photos, etc.
I've just collected my photos last saturday.
Only didn't take home the big(15R) album, the rest, I took back, cos wanted some changes in the big album. Counted the number of photos used in the album, not bad leh, got 79 pics...that time i only topped up 10 magazine style pages for 1k and got like 57 more photos! Think quite worth it afterall...^_^

Anyway, only after I've scanned the photos, then I'll let ya girls know the link to see the photos, ok? Meanwhile, must have the determination to have them scanned..heh...

I'm pretty satisfied with the photos taken and most ppl said i look like some star..don't look like me leh...hahaha....=)...even my 2 year old nephews could only recognize my hubby and not me...>.<

Don't pass me your emails yet...I'll let ya know when I've got the photos on the internet, okiez?

[feroy]

harlow to all the Oct 04 brides here......!

wa, haven't logged in since the west 38 meeting, dunno where to start now.....

ivory,
you really look great in the gowns... very well-endowed.... 'big' at all the rite areas...

ya, your designer did a great job... can see that he put in a lot of effort...

ivory, yvonne, chubbyrain...
aiyo, u all so ke qi.... me demure? haha... that's bcos i managed to 'cover' my chor lor ness up well...

wait till i show my true colours... haha...

forest,
me and jennl different occupations la... heehee... her company sure wun accept me one la...

babysheep,
really? heehee... think your hubby can recall which colleague he met that day... ya, we'll chat more tomoro...

bebe,
me wanna place order too, but can let u know wat cup later? cos dunno yet... hehe.. wanna go Tangs to try first....

lynn,
ya agree wif u, better to watch gospel of john first... (actually me still havent watch GOJ yet but intend too...) Passion is not likely to bring any non-Christians to the Lord, but will probably cost a lot of heartache for Christians... ya, must bring tissues... and a shawl! to cover your eyes during some scenes... pretty unbearable for me to see Christ being crucified....

yvonne,
did u get the moisturiser from watson's? saw that they've another promo - purchase $60 and above (purchase must include one of their anti-wrinkle product retailing at $30+) and received a box of the whitening mask (5 tubes) free... think this would be a pretty good deal if u r using this anti-wrinkle moisturiser thingy... cos the mask's retail price is already $28...

chubbyrain,
haha... seems like you're missing me?

off for your trip yet? have a safe trip and take care ya? enjoy too!!

ok, gotta clear my work now... talk again soon.....

feory
hee hee, haven't bought it yet. oh, if buy $60 &amp; above can get the whitening mask free? that's very worth it, i should check it out later. but er... haven't really used the anti wrinkle moisturiser, too many things now. my hubby asked how come i put so much stuff on my face

that's why always late every morning

 

[tanlea]

hi kippy, zenn

i already bought my LG front load washer 7kg one. satisfied with it so far. i did quite an amount of research. do look under the LG washer thread for more details

hi zenn

i dun have any problems with sweetson electrical leh. just that the lady boss quite blur and the delivery men very squeezed - have to deliver many things in one day, you see. if you understand these problems, i really dun think they are out to cheat you, u see. we waited one day, its ok. cos we understand the delivery men very busy lor. if you ask for delivery on a weekday afternoon, then i think the timing will be more accurate. overall, the men also helped me fixed the fridge, the washer. i bought all my electrical things from sweetson and really save a lot lors.

 

[wiseharmony]
