wah, congrats diana! you've found a new job...

was just chatting with moonlight, haha, both of us so xian with our job and then I discoovered, we are working SO CLOSE to each other, within walking distance only..kekekeke.

During weekend, was catching up with hb's frens, they all want to go cheong Taiwan now, seems like lots of pp want to go now hor...Then I also took the opportunity to ask hb abt plans for our short trip as I need to claim by Oct..kekek..Still thinking BKK or HK. But go HK, I want to go disney land leh...

Yoz shimaro, KL for shopping? go beach beach resort? Nice, relaxing also leh.

 

[dear99]

YO GERS,

wah! talking abt holidays tour again huh!!! ;D

i nev been to bkk before, is it a nice place? heard fr my frz, lots of stuff to buy there? is it true??

 

[pierced22]

ryes, Hk disneyland i heard full house for the opening time rite? anyway, heard this boy im teaching is gg in oct. the parents bringing him to celebrate birthday! wah! so rich...i save up so long juz to go for a holiday.

deardear, shopping in bkk is gd, lots of clothes to buy. onli mi hb keep saying always the same clothes. so borin! guess guy's mentality very diff.

 

[jozy]

wah! so shiok one ah, bring there to celebrate bday! I also want leh, bday this month.wahhaha....

BKK, you go there u are like QUEEN man. Things are so cheap. And even though it's cheap, you still will have to bargain lah. The last time I was there, was just plain shopping. Bought many many bras and panties back. wahahhah...

But the sun is scotching hot, terrible, bring a brolly and a mask, air pollution terrible....

 

[gs1979]

Hi gals, i'm back from my honeymoon!! Flight delayed and i reach spore @ 5pm..worse is my luggage cos the transit place from Barcelona to Frankfurt was delayed thus i can only get my stuffs tomorrow. But lucky they gg to deliver it to me.

Had an enjoyable trip to Barcelona & Madrid. Weather super super hot in Madrid - 35deg..hubby and me got sun-tanned. haha!! Barcelona is good for shopping and sight seeing. Me bought alot till declare bankrupt yesterday. But still prefer Madrid more as the people there are friendlier and helpful. Many of them offered help on route directions. Some of the guys are so YAN DAO too!! heehee... Food wise @ both places not very nice as very salty n oily. Cant adapt to those Spanish style cooking. ** Imagine i order a PORK CHOP and end up they served me a pc of "PIG LEG" with lotsa of fats and got v v strong PIG SMELL.

Me told hubby i dare not touch pork for quite some time liao. Though got bad experiences with food but overall we realli enjoyed our sweet FREE & EASY TRIP cum honeymoon. Took over 600pics...guess its realli a rewarding trip for hubby as he finally get a chance to see the famous footballer and visit their football stadium. Too bad din get to see DAVID BACKHAM when i was @ Real Madrid stadium. I also try their metro when in madrid..its so much faster & convenient than our MRT...

The 2 places is a gd recommendation for honeymoon.

 

[shimaro]

Ryes,
HK i think full hse also if not left those very exp. But Taiwan think still available...when I book for end Oct still got quite a lot of seats.

KL still cant confirm. my hse not yet tidy up...going to be mid sep..

Gintonic....so nice got a honeymoon.

 

[jozy]

wAH gIN!

Fun leh, I have never tot of gg to barcelona or madrid, all sounds like meant for soccer fans. But you make it sound so nice and i see the big word SHOPPING. I love soccer, watching those hunks, but hubby dun like soccer.

Hey Shimaro, I went taiwan before liao, so hubby is trying to persuade his buddies to go taiwan...

2. Light Studio - Ex, no choice,brought by ID and we did not know which downlight to choose from. So from this shop, we bought only downlights, spot lights.
3. Elite @ Jalan Besar Mcdonalds - I love this place, wide nice variety of lamps, shades. They are the ones that provide HDB's showflat lights as well. bought rest of the lights here.

2. get a day off my bday can celebrate at home mah, have candle light dinner..kekekekek...

wei, very upset now leh, last week went to place order for the simmon bed har, then we choose the headboard, thinking it comes with the divan. But I have a feeling they will deliver the bedframe and no divan, and true enuff leh. I called to clarify and they said headboard must pay $750 if we want divan. wah liao, that time say comes with it, then now say must pay, I damn DL leh. Tonight gg dwn to settle.

 

[pierced22]

[jozy]

hey pierced, rem to bring mini fan okay!!! super hot day.

I buy from robinson one lor! See lah. it's not written in the contract that the divan would come with headboard. haiz..so dui now leh.

[jozy]

hey diana, wah, then u are so near to moonlight!!! I'm the furthest liao leh..xian.

oic, i didnt notice the mushroom leh...alamak.

pierced today photoshoot is it har?

 

[moonlight00]

morning gals!!!

todae's weather so nice to sleep in...*groan*
yalor...2day's pierced PS leh...tink morn usu studio shots, aftn then go out for OD shots rite? hopefully sky wld hv cleared up by then

wah seh...diana! u super near mi ah...hehe....

 

[jozy]

yday i went to BS hor, then designer told me that my EG the turquoise stop productionn & it's in a darker shade of blue, like Indian Sari leh. Then have to change colour and now EG is gonna be purple. Duno will it be nice not..worry....

I tried on a long train WG and I like it so much, Very long, Very big train, abit hard to walk though, but it's very grand leh, I love it so much. I may opt that WG for rent to take photoshoot..kekeke.

As for bed, haiz..long story short, If take divan, have to pay for the headboard at $750. The lady keep asking us take bedframe, which I think not worth for the $ that we have paid. So now may ask ID to custom make for us a headboard...

 

[shimaro]

ryes,
i made at jimmy textile...be careful there is two banches....joo chiat complex is cheaper...tanjong katong will cut carrot. but is brother n sister company.

gals...
happy Bday!

moonlight,
I always took leave on my bday. cos i feel is quite pitiful if still work on bday. jus my two cents.
