Moonlight ....
depends on individ lar ... me used to be quite tan ... then Angela told me to stop swimming (actually that tan line was very old liao ... like 1 yr ago when I went for a dive trip) ...
actually there are 2 way of doing it ... either aviod the sun completely or get under the sun NAKED to get that even tan hahahahaha ...
my EG is very low back ... so think its safer for me to stay out of the sun lar ... or how to get that even tan?

Lavish wedding paid for by guests
SOMETIMES, a couple can profit from inviting scores of guests to a lavish wedding banquet.
Hongbao from generous relatives and friends have helped some recoup their outlay with money left over.
Mr Colin Choo, 29, an executive in an information technology company, and his wife, Ms Goh Ee Lin, 28, a bank executive, held their wedding ceremony and Chinese banquet last December at the Ritz-Carlton.
The hongbao they received paid for the $54,000 wedding bill, and they still had $5,000 left over. Ms Goh said: 'We were really surprised and we're very grateful to our family and friends because they were so generous.'
Her husband's relatives, most of whom run their own businesses, gave them $5,000 and $10,000 hongbao.
But the going rate for hongbao is between $60 and $80, depending on the venue, said couples. Guests usually give more if the dinner is held at a posh hotel.
The Choos used the extra money for their 12-day honeymoon in South Africa.
Ms June Wan, 31, a freelance writer, and husband Chris Toh, 35, a spa therapist, lucked out too. Their 300 dinner guests helped them cover the $17,000 they spent on their church wedding and dinner at the Copthorne Orchid Hotel in January, with about $3,000 left over.
Ms Wan said: 'We tried to keep costs down. We went simple and it turned out to be the right decision.'
But often, people who spend a bomb on their weddings find that the hongbao do not even cover half the bill.
Couples tell of guests who bring their entire family but give only a $40 hongbao, or those who give lucky charms instead of cash.
A 28-year-old marketing manager who spent $100,000 on his wedding last November - a grand affair at the Shangri-La Hotel for 750 guests - said he's been left in debt.
'We wanted a small wedding but our parents were quite insistent that it should be a big thing. It's tough on me because I'll be paying the bank back for the next year or so.'
Couples should decide what they can afford before getting any other advice, said family life educator Linda Haverkamp of the Family Resource and Training Centre.
She said: 'They should not bow to pressure... otherwise, they will start their life together with debts.' -- Tracy Quek

aha! so, u're my 'longlost' housemate from brisbane?
trying to think which friend i have that has "germ" in their name and then, it struck my mind that it's u, buddy
woman, got lots to update man, u'd better start sending me emails soon
but i agree with chubbyrain, if they are close relatives of urs, it shouldn't matter if they leave their kids home for one nite. and don't bother about poly students, unless u need them as ur helpers, otherwise, they should be old enough to stay home and study on their own
unicorn
i was also planning on booking during NATAS fair, hee hee, but yah, not sure if it'll be too late
baby5556
of cos remember u, how have u been? btw, had my PS last week. make up done by Joey and i must say her skills are really good. we're also very happy with her service, nice lady
lynn
yah, sometimes, u must try on the gowns the u'll know if it's nice on u or not. as i'd mentioned, the red gown is a good choice for ur AD EG, so glam

I'm trying to relax but they are scaring me lah..
Yvonne,
Finally u know who....ya boy, lots of things to update. Will send u email soon. For some close relatives, they may count the entire family attending, but in the end maybe only the parents attend. Hence, extra seats....that is the ting we are worried abt.
