hi L.S. cool that you are not having GDL.
Ouch... I am always afraid to do brazalian wax. It sounds and i can imagine that it is so PAINFUL. Thumbs up for u!

Hi afcai, you sound abit depresed. Cheer up...Everything will be sorted out. Dun worry.... :-)

Hi JT, so during your GDL, you have to go round th island to distribute your cakes? When is your GDL. To deliver 40 cakes is alot boy...

Hi lynn, it really depends what what is the arrangment with your dad. Whether if he is keeping the angbao or not, you really go to talk to him about it. Be open...
 
Morning gals.....

spent my weekends looking at bedroom sets..... headache ah..... dunno whether to get the set or go separate items..... then hor, how to buy a good mattress? besides pocketed spring, wat else must i look out for? any brand to recommend? I'm thinking of either King Koil or Four Star....
 
morning!

Daphne,
Tink depends whether u will be using the the whole set lor. Tink it should consists of dresser, wardrode,bed, bedside tables and chairs hor...If u dun need the dresser, then can ask them to minus out. U must lay on the mattress to try if its suitable for u lor. There are many diff types, soft, hard or medium type lor.U must try out before u know which is the ne u prefer.

Mine is from Dunlop...its an old brand lor, bery realiaable =).

ching,
i ordered my GDL cakes from Gin Tye Cakemaker at Sembawang road lor. I went there abt 10am on sat and was crowded over there. Think it attracts so many customers becos they have foc rental of those big traditional baskets for GDL lor.They also sell Long Feng Candles, red pkt for pingjin etc lor.

We ordered walnut cakes, cantonese bing and some da bing lor.

hi Ting!
 
Thanks gals for all the advice and comforting words. Quite xian lah, sometimes really feel like just migrating and we can get big big house in another country... haha... hse really a huge decision, have to think and think and is so scared of making a mistake.

Janice, when you intend to get your house?

Jelly, we intend to have our time alone first, then maybe after one or 2 years fetch my mum to stay with us, if not she stays alone, so lonely.

Zoe/Josl, you all hardcore leh, one in china, the other in europe still can post huh? hehe :P
 
hi cheery,
i bot them during a toys fair at china square, n it was the last pair.
so i dunno where else u can find them. sori i cant be of help...
if u dun mind, i can lend them to u.
 
morning gals..

daphne..buying mattress is a big 'xue wen'. also depending on your personal preference. some ppl like soft, some like it hard.. got go round trying all beds.... i din invest in a good mattress now coz dun intend to bring it over to new house 2yrs later.

caitlyn.. not very excited over the album leh.. dun have wow feeling.. also dunno y..

newbbi.. can share how much is the cake from Gin Thye?
 
daphne- i can recommend a brand to you (Princebed). Not sure whether you heard before. We liked the texture of this bed. Just nice for my hubby & me.
 
yo zoe... wow so fast hur... then hv to keep on downloading ur stuff out hor... tat time i take 1GB SD card there.... but nbr finish lah...

hehehehe... addicted hur... enjoy enjoy... update us more when u can lor...

yo josl... aiyo so hard to drink hur... then better get mineral one lor... so got start doing any shopping bo... how's the weather there

yo jnj... me gog 02/11 to 09/11 lor... 7days wor... gog to shop n eat till faint.. kekeke... so got any must eat food in taipei bo...

yo seval... oic... hmm... then like tat is best to find a place tat both of u like lor... take ur time lah...
 
ching, how much roughly does it cost?
I prefer the hard type but there are so many out there so don't know which one to go for....
berry suggested pocketted spring but even for this, there's some that are individual pocketted spring and some just pocketted spring and wat nots..... blur liao..... and the more bed sets i see the more blur cos for each set, there's always something tat i don't like.... and they don't allow me to take that item out cos it's a packaged price.... so i may just go ala carte style and not get a dresser table but use a plank and drill into the wall to act as a dressing table.... but may end up to be the same price as getting the whole set.... so sigh..... confused....
 
Hi sotong,
my GDL fixed on 6 Nov... some of the relative will be getting 2 boxes of cakes... hmm at least of to go 10 places lor..

I had just finished my AP box and ring pillow over the weekend.
 
Daphne- we bought at $800 for king size about 2 years ago. You can go to the furniture store at Rocher centre (2nd floor). The one opp OG Bugis. We know the lady boss there

u sign up any packages wif your gynae? How much does your gynae charge? for me, I'll most prob taking your gynae n Dr Ho(from Mt Alvernia) into consideration.... Dr Ho's charges antenatal is $600... think the motherhood got his charges listed...
happy.gif
 
starstar,
my package is $515. You check with Dr Ho, when can sign up, some only can sign up at week 16, my gynae can sign up at week 12 liao.
The later you sign up, the more you have to pay for each visit before the package. Each visit average abt 100.
So having a kid is really not cheap!haha..

Jas,
are you staying at Park Green? I rem the earlier posting that we have quite a number of brides in Park Green...
 
highness,

me also very busy nw in the midst of changing job so next mth sure very stressful. i thk i am experiencing pre-wedding stress every each time i go to sleep i will dream of my actual day or somethg that will be link to it plus i nd to worry of my new job that adds on to it.

starting on my nw job next wk and there are other details i nd to firm up. PIL giving me headache really at a loss dun noe wat to do until nw they dun seems to have confirm the menu and never see them collating their namelist and my invite cards are already ready for them to issue.

i thk i just leave it to my hubby i got other more impt thgs to do let nature take its course when time is ripe hpe everythg will be in order. I just do my part at my end.
 
ivy
thanks for the advice..noted...
happy.gif
hmmm...your package includes? Can u list it down for me? cos I know Dr Ho's one is like all scheduled appts, routine test n scans. It's excluding medicine n those extras like 3D scans..n of course, unscheduled appts. For your gynae, what's the charges for hospital visits after u gave birth? U decided to go which hospital to give birth? taking two bedder or single? pai seh..ask too many ques...:p

Hi hi ladies..
Sorry for not being able to come in to post for the last few weeks..my sis-in-law is hospitalized…she suffered a stroke & doc found a tumor in her heart..she took a very big ops in the heart to remove the tumor (grown in her heart) she’s currently out of the ICU (aft op) & resting in the normal ward..we were all very busy rushing in & out of the hospital..i hope that u all can understand why I MIA for sooo long..it’s not easy as she’s only 29 this yr..she’s a very sporty person & always exercising..we are also not sure why things will turn out this way for her..there’s also no medical history in the family of stroke & also tumor..but whatever it is, most importantly is that she can get well soon & discharge from the hospital..also bcoz she’s still young, so we all think that her immune system will let her recover well fast..

So everyone..always take very good care of ur health..work is not very impt, health is..it's very precious..my sis-in-law only mentioned that she’s got numbness in the finger & toes occasionally but didn’t realized that it will be soo serious..we was all very shocked when we got news of her lying in the hospital…but at least seeing her slowly recover, really makes everyone relieved…I hv to apologize on the delay in sharing my photos w/ everyone..sorry…

hi hi gals!
waaaah! many topics.

hi janice, going BKK?
pratunam area is good for shopping!
you're staying at baiyoke sky? great place cos near the wholesale area of pratunam. at baiyoke sky, there's already a baiyoke fashion centre. good for clothes. further down, got indra regent wholesale centre. even more things!! bags, clothes, accessories!! pratunam is non aircon unlike baiyoke and indrea regent. inside the mkt like a maze. heehee! but got many things to buy like tee-shirts and BAGS. hahaha!
MBK ~ nice to go see-look and buy tidbits. i see the prices at pratunam, i dun wanna buy from MBK liao. heeheehee! cos MBK takes their stocks from the wholesale area to sell.
chatuchak ~ i stayed like 2 hrs only. think nicest things to buy is home accessories there.
enjoy your trip!!!
 
hi zoeanne, wow! on HM and still got chance to post. =) enjoying yourself? take more pics, yah!!

hi josl, is the internet unlmited? how's GZ? like that ah, better stick to drinking mineral water

hi seval, for housing slowly find is better, better not rush, try not to quarrel over it, kae? else will more frustrated. narrow down the various areas which you want to look for housing then once HDB releases any news, you can quickly make your decision =) good luck with your housing search!
 
Watashi and snowy,
my walnut cake cost $7 per box, comes with the "xi" word and some decor.The cantonese si sei bing $8 per box,da bing $10. MIl also bought the Long Feng candles there at $7 per pair...so spent abt $468 lor. Also borrowed 2 baskets from them for my GDL lor.

Their walnut cakes bery nice lor, nicer than begawan lor. They also have butter cakes at $6 each but we prefer the walnut ones. Nicer...
