[sashamama]

Hakida:

Mi going to the Guanyin temple at Bugis tmr.. The one i waiting results one is its subsidiary at Joo Chiat..

Babu:

No be so worried.. Im sure u two went thru much to get to where u are now.. Insecurities are natural, esp for us gals, but like mi FH say: Why waste our everyday worrying abt something that may never happen?

Think we shld all just believe in overcoming all probs together, then it doesnt matter what the probs are.. Cos WHATEVA it is, it will be overcome

 

[hakida]

Good nite HP and Sasha.

How much angbao u think i shld give if i jus need to know if 26th Dec is a good enuf date and a good time on that day..
Read on a fengshui website that it's not a good day to marry.. So need to ask if it's REALLY that bad, then we have to get another date liao..
But it wun be so meaningful to us oledi.. sigh..
Does the angbao money go to her or the temple?

[momoechan]

morning ladies
it's a brand new week, how's everyone doing? good i hope

sorry, have been busy and couldn't check the rest of the messages but i noticed a new name

chil
welcome to the thread, u'll have fun here

serene
of cos we know u

sorry, haven't been able to reply ur email. glad to hear that u've confirmed ur ID, is it the one ur PIL reccomended? as for air con, i think mitsubishi and sanyo should be good. my parents' place's air con is national and it's not that good, gets noisy in a year and we've asked several repair guys to see it but they can't get rid of the noise. my current place is using Daikin and it's so-so, doesn't cool the room fast enough.

kk
thanks for ur info on robinsons sale, for the loreal scrub. i went down to robinsons on Fri and bought 2 scrubs for $14.40 and there's a further 5% discount, very worth it.

unicorn
r u looking for contractor or ID? u can PM me and i can pass u my contractor's contact. also have an ID to reccomend to u if u're interested.

exciting
wah, u're very pretty ah, then i must meet u soon

ok, gotta get back to work, sorry if i missed out anyone in my mesasges, will try to check again later, have a great week ahead ladies
