mehmeh,
thx for offering an avenue for me to vent my frustrations....
just din wanna make a mole out of the mountain hill....coz guess every1 has their fair share of stress too, just that i dun handle it very well.....end up maxing myself up.....seeing u gals here all so hyped up and happy thru-out the prep, i just dun have the heart to go into details to complain abt my stress.....
in a way, it's good for me, coz i hv always been very dependent, the sort that wait for things to happen, now finally I have to take-chrg and see that evrything goes smoothly, to put it optimistically, it's a way of growing up for me to learn to take on greater responsibility!
right now, just cracking my brains, worrying abt things that I cud have missed out....see lor....thk ultimately, no1's stressing me except myself.....
u were right, now feel that my flying schedule gets in the way, and on top of that hardly see hubby coz he's snapping all the long flts away for more $ allowances so as to prep himself for eventual loss at the banquet....so in the end we end up not seeing each other for weeks, and no time together to plan things and sort things.....alot of backlog....
almost done with the sending out of invites, now just balance of those whom i have yet to find out how to address, and those whom have yet to sms me their addresses.....now trying to take 1 thing at a time, rsvp wud probably do during the 7th mth....no choice, aniwae, my EG (1st 1 can't make it, now re-doing 2nd piece) 1st fitting gonna be in 7th mth oso, coz they up till now haven't even started working on it....haiz.....
food tasting done, that sorted out....now just waiting for hotel to firm me the availability on the choice of my wedding favours. feeling very burnt out, wishing that in the 1st place, I hadn't wanted to do a wedding....
at the same time, pacing myself to try to relax and max the enjoyment of the prep.....haven't had a chance oso to update my multiply website, now that my digital camera got stolen, so nothing to upload and share......I feel that somehow I kinda left it half way.....now dunno where to restart loading my multiply website again....
GDL is another thing.....during food tasting, MIL and my mum all shy, so end up nothing discussed.....haiz.....still procrastinating....
starmoon,
me done food tasting.....end up a glitch, coz we change date last minute, supposed to view the mock-up for the floral arrangement, in the end miscommunication, end up din get to see it till 2days ago....
I took the classic menu too.....but modified quite a bit....found the shark's fin too starchy, so highlighted to them to make it less starchy....then we oso changed the sequence of the dishes, coz some dishes we kinda modified, din take exactly what was given, and decide to pace the heavy dishes apart....
I found out Sharul resigning when I last met him to discuss details.... he felt obligated that he had to break the news personally.....honestly, i'm happy for him, coz he's moving to another estb where he can freely express hs ideas minus the restrictions of RH....
Then, i figured Jenn wud be close to her 3rd trimester during the AD, so decided to try out Agnes, the new coordinator...so far so good...I like her....she quite prompt and flexible....wihtin strict limits of RH though....
some suggestions....the Prawn mayo is good, and so is the pork ribs, which i chosed. oso, if u wanna change the way the dish is prepared, I guess u can voice it out to the chef, who will come and speak to u at the end of the tasting....
R u taking their wines? what's the deal for the corkages for the additional wines u bringing in? coz i thk their free btls definitely not enuff.....
