Hi Mist,
That's wat my mum says one leh..she worried my hb spent too much $ so trying to help us save but will discuss with my hb on the fig. Dun think it's appropriate to give anything lesser than the open door one rite? cos no matter wat she's our own mother leh hor??
Dunno leh..my mum oso blur blur one...she juz follow suits wat her mum (my grandma) said in the past lor..
Hi Lee ann,
Juz confirmed with my mum she said muz get few sets of new clothes leh! That's for wearing to work on our '1st' day back in office.
Hmm..really very poor thing leh..how come ur hb like dat? hai...my hb is the opp kind..everything (got problem) oso wun say. I always scold him for being so 'wooden'. Cos most things he wun asked or say, ended up PIL & parents tot we got no respect for them, take everything into our own hands.
Overall, try to 'see open' ok? Think of ur bb & give ur love & focus to it. Dun dwell on all the unhappiness cos it's very bad for both u & bb mentally!

Hi Hi,
I'm new here, joined the forum for so long oredi oso din realise there's such a thread here... =)
my AD is on 26 Nov.
I'm like really behind time... still haven't got any inkling idea what to prepare for GDL. Do anyone have a list of items to prepare? where to buy the stuffs?
I'm cantonese, my FH's Teochew. Any requirements?
Should be going for my food tasting in 2 weeks' time. Think it'll be a good chance to get both sides of parents down to tok tok a bit... they hardly know each other.
Thanks a lot!!

Hi girls,
Must call u all girls more, if not, after married all become auntie liao. haha....
To move into new hse, can bring old clothes but juz dun bring anything broken or torn. I din buy new clothes too.
They said must buy pyjamas long sleeves one, for "comb hair" ceremony. Must buy new tower, the nite before, when u bath, u must use new tower. And must have at least 2 sets of new clothes. One set, think is for 3rd day when u go back ur mum's hse. The other, dunno.
Hi Lee Annn,
Dun sandwich ur hubby. Anything unhappiness, juz let it out here. Or u can email me secretly. I'm always free to read ur email. No prob. I seldom tell my hub abt his mum. Cos, she's his mum. Later, difficult for him. But my frens will be unlucky. Cos, I'll complain to them. hehe..... I'm lucky that pple in this thread so helpful and nice to me.

Rainnie, if u try those cake shop at residential area will be cheaper & can save transportation when it near your house.. as for the cake shop that I've mentioned, they have quite a lot of variety to choose. All std at $5/- 10pcs type also have.. only fruit tarts are more x.
Ah ger & bao bao.. if u r think of ordering from Swee Heng, U can buy some samples to try first.. 4 pcs of cake for $2.20 (10 pcs per box type).
