(2006) Brides of year 2006

[jacquise]

Wow, me missing out from here a bit. Since the topic is on changing jobs, me will be chipping in here. hehe. Tmw is also my first day at my new wkplace. I also have some concerns as to whether i should tell my mgr/colleagues that Im getting married end of the yr.

Mine is a sales job and requires me to run about a bit. Im afraid that I cant take leave that easily during mth end to hit targets. Sigh. Marriage leave only 3 days. But i thot maybe later then tell them I getting married in Dec. Then im worried that when they know, they sure cheesed how come I didnt say earlier, as though Im dishonest. I guess I'll just play along and bring it up only when there's an "occassion" or the topic is discussed... What will all of u do?

 

[kaye]

Jean,
I also very "chor lor", running abt....
I even remove my heels...but nobody knows...jux wondering how come the length of my gown is so long...

I also had given them the list to do..N had give them a briefing in 1 of the weekends + reminding them again on that AD...
nvm...everything is over...

As for the wine, cos we were drinking at the foyer outside the ballroom, we jux keeps opening 1 bottle after another...
So, after tat, they jux helped us to bring it back to the hotel room....

Lipstar, saw yr pic...
got anymore..??? cant be so few only, rt?

hey gers

wowo, u gers sound really busy. My bf and I gonna be doing intensive planning this one mth. counting down 4 weeks exactly. attended a wedding yesterday and realized that i have not done many things. Gotta start my exercising regime this week. Intensive exercise too. Everything intensive sighz. I sure pray tt i can cope and not look sickly on the actual day.

hi phy_*o*

i got my curtains too and i din wash. My curtain guy said everything is clean and when i touch really clean loh so din wash. did you ask your curtain guy if u need to wash and how to wash?? some curtains very trickly one lei.

hi piglet

I dun hv lobang for window grills but i can give you the contact for window blinds. This guy whom i got the curtains from, is recommended by this colleague. My colleage actually went to research and got this guy who is really cheap and gd. I also used him and found him very gd. Now more pp have heard abt him and are using him. But he still charges gd prices cos he said he rather earn a little and establish himself rather than earning a lot. A humble honest guy. Worth it loh. so if you wan, just let me know lahz. would be glad to be of help

princess-happy bday gal.....i bought the samsung tv at below 2500. so gt the theatre system free but must go samsung customer service at PS there to redemp and then they will contact u in abt 2wks time to confirm the date to sent it down. tats all lor. din buy anithing else at the moment. yupyup...bose ex...actually wat i heard is bose = buy other sound equipment. thats the joke abt it. hehe. depends on budget.

diamond-bose system is only good for sme sounds from what i hear from others. so must go listen for urself then can decide. others said tat bose is not gd for jazz or classical. more focus on bass. hip hop/rap/r&B maybe can. pop soso lah. but cost alot also so just get a simple one at the moment if not in great preferences. those home theatre in a box no ned to test much cos their standard is there....low standard. cos of wat u pay is wat u get. ehehe...

yuki-aim diffcult leh. imagine a tree trunk gog into a V shape....think a lumberjack will also faint cos he cant do it easily to shape a tree trunk to a V shape 10 pack body. hehehe.i m toking nonsense. hehehe

jacquise-u gt quite a predicament here. hmmm...Sang nao Jin leh. hehe. tink if i were u, i play along as well. if u purposely say out like very the not correct leh. hehe. somemre u ned to invite them to the wedding.

 

[lipstar]

Jean: You still drunk or high? You called her pinkbuMMy.

Yah! I also love Kelvin & the videog's video express. During the dinner, we had missed it as we went up to change. The next day, I watched it and I liked it so much I watched it continuously for 3-5 times consecutively.

pinny: Now that's another interesting nickname.

Hazel: Yep. More pics. Too many to resize. I slowly upload more then show you girls.

 

[lipstar]

Wine, we had 8 bottles left but Mr Lipstar's Mum likes it so much she is buying them from us.

Just out of curiosity, (I thought of this poll question last night when I went to bed. See, I go to bed

also think of you girls. Err... dunno if that is a good thing or not.

Wait nightmare lah...

) which side of the Queen or King sized bed are you sleeping on?

I am sleeping on the right side because the air con is directly blowing at the left side of the bed and I get cold too easily. Brr...

 

[lipstar]

Hazel: Convenient to post here or not, but exactly what kind of questions did your sisters ask you at the dinner?

Cos everyone should know better than to bug the couple, especially the bride on her BIG DAY.

Tho I was very worried about my helpers too. On the AD, while I was having my make up done, Kelvin had snapped so many pics of me on my hp cos still busy talking & giving frens wake-up calls. My friends did not disappoint me.

 

[tissuebox1]

[lilic]

<font color="0077aa">hellos all, hope you guys have a good break.. i had.. hee, no input on household items coz house not ready so never go scouting.. =P

princess, this is wat my bf told me previously, with each year passing on, we get wiser and more graceful and therefore more attractive.. *wink*

jacquise, i think you should tell your manager.. so that you can manage his/her expectations better.. at least he/she can prepare for backups for you during your absence.. and prob manage your targets then better.. all the best in your new career.. =)</font>

 

[pinkbunny]

hi girls,

what a nice long weekend! we did our bbq at the corridor (so far no complaints from neighbours yet) and then watched LA confidential, and then our wedding video again. so nice

so coming back to work: super sian.

tissuebox, ya it really depends on the level of 'work' that your helpers do. for me, i gave them APs and then after the wedding, i bought presents for those i thought really really helped out.

lipstar, i also got photo of me on hp. so funny! my side of the bed is left side. so you and me can share bed and not fight eh?

hazel, agree with lipstar: your sisters really shouldn't be bothering you. they should be HELPING you instead! tell them to refund you some AP!!!

jean, oi why always it's my nick that kena changed one ah!!!

question to all: so when going for honeymoon? for me, it's bunnymoon

we'll be going either end may or early june. depending on when bluebunny start his new job

Pink Bunny,

hahah...guess I really drunk liao...cos I drank more than hubby that night..

Me will be going for my honeymoon this coming sunday!! Yahoo!!

Lipstar,

I slept on the left side of the bed usually..

 

[pinkbunny]

tissuebox,
you don't need to use english songs. can use chinese or instrumental also. we had the following, just for your considerations:
- lullabye by bond for me and dad
- more by frank sinatra when husband and i walk back down the aisle
- for once in my life by stevie wonder when we walked into the ballroom

background music was my husband's department, and we brought everything in CDs to the venue. hope this helps. i think there are also a couple of threads that discuss music - you may want to find out more there?

jean
walau i also was super drunk lor. i told you about the non utilisation of the ceiling mirrors....

cool beans leh honeymoon this sun. so, intending to going 2, coming back 3? keke

 

[lipstar]

tissuebox My 1st march in song is To The End by Blur.
2nd - "Pure" by Lightning Seeds. Describes me so aptly.

Hazel:

I forgot to keep walking back and forth when I walk down the long, long church aisle. Wasted!

pinkbuMMy: No plans for honeymoon yet.

Eh... share bed... ok lor. Provided there are no ceiling mirrors, wait I get nightmare...

 

[september]

designfreak, stripper...nv thot of...y..u got lobang huh...or u will join us if we hire a stripper...hee hee ;-p

aiyo ice....if u dun wan we also cant force it down ur throat mah...hee hee...no lah...dun tink so lor...me got to lose weight for my PS on 2nd June too lor...

 

[makino]

Hi magical,
That's alright. I think as long as you're comfortable with what you're doing, it's good 'fengshui'! There are so many versions and different ways of doing things, so I guess there's no standard one (my conclusion).

Tissuebox,
You chose the songs yet? I just did it over the weekends. Just do it tonight loh..hehe

 

[iceglacier]

aiyoh.. Diana, i will be very tempted ok...think asfter my photoshoot i will makan roti prata and have choc fondue!!!!

 

[pinkbunny]

lipstar: i don't know 'to the end' but 'pure' is one of my fav songs. you scared you see your own reflection then kena shock is it?

 

[stepford]

For hen party, maybe just indulge a spa session or a pedicure/manicure session. When I think of male stippers, I would wonder erm, what are we going to do with them when they finally bared all? Hhaha...

I think the fastest way to cut down the extra kilos is to halve the carbo intake but hor only for a short while. After that, your body will retaliate and you might just end up eating more.

 

[tissuebox1]

angel..
thanks...i just confirm only..order with fostres...do it thru the internet..hahaha...very convinent...

tsukushi...
have to do tonight lor..no choice...
at 1st think of "first love" but then relise it is a sad love song..so now must find again

 

[pinkbunny]

yo girls. i got a question: where do you all put your SDJ or any jewellery you got for wedding? mine still at home (uh oh lipstar and jean know where i stay...). thinking of opening a safe deposit box in bank

 

[september]

stepford, u naughty gal...wat u wan to do to them after they are nude???'extra service'??? *eyes and mouth open big big*

btw, how to curb carbo intake?

ice...see see...nt us try to tempt u...but it is u who cant resist temptation lor...hee hee

 

[cindeekoh]

hi timminbuzz

sure...glad to be of help...

his wife's name is june...just call 91381141. they will bring the catalogue to yr place. if u dun like, u can request to see their van. their van is like their mobile wholesale factory. hehe...another colleague of mine also gonna be using him. he also doing his curtains. just tell him i recommend one...dun worries, no commission

geesh, we are all busy furnishing our house. i am done with e bulky furniture...just the small details...but it is the cleaning that is really taking up a lot of time..spent 2 hrs sweeping and mopping the whole house...by the time i am done, i am all wet. gd workout manz. but i am very picky abt the feel of the flr on the feet. my bf said not dirty but i keep saying dirty. sighz. something not right manz...maybe cos it is the first house and i just wan it to be perfect.

 

[stepford]

Haha... I was imagining this awkward scenario where he is there nude and all, and the girls all sitting down dunno what to do next. Extra service??? Nay...

Curb your carbo intake by eating say less rice, less noodles, in general, less starchy stuff. My gf managed to lose 7kg in 2 mths just by halving her carbo intake.

 

[prettyangel]

yeah tissuebox, 1 thing down for you again..

 

[jacquise]

hello... I also wanted to tell my mgr just now but i controlled myself. I tot not day one lah. See how it goes.

maybe a week or mth down the road.

 

[lipstar]

pinkbuMMy:

Jewelry not much. I will leave them at home.

(thinks to self: luckily I still have pinkbuMMy's address in my hp.

 

[tissuebox1]

ya lor ya lor..
thanks
