hi gals...
juz came back fm my HB's place with my mum n nephew at 11.30pm.
my mum n nephew had followed mi to my nest tis afternoon at 3pm when i went to wait for the CityGas sub-con to do the gas pipes. MIL also followed my HB to our nest.
both my mum n MIL had lotsa of comments. my mum commented dat the LBox made the house looks like have lotsa of beam. *pengz*
MIL commented even more... see below.
- all the rooms beri small, especially the MBR. "it's smaller than my MBR at woodlands"
- kitchen also small
- balcony small
- dining room n living room
- y no cornice <-- HB told MIL cornice is old fashion liao
- the wardrobe for BR2 & BR# muz change to sliding coz the rooms are too small to have casement door. <-- muz pay more $$ liao
den both my mum n MIL commented abt the prayer altar position and agreed dat muz find someone to see if the position we are having the altar is good anot. MIL said both she n my mum will go n buy the prayer altar items n guanyin figurine with us.
after the installation of gas pipe, my MIL out of the blue invited my mum over to their place. all bcoz she wanted to show my mum how her place looks like especially the MBR. lol
by the time we reached HB's place in woodlands, it was already 5pm. den mi mum n MIL chatted while my nephew ran around the place, in between fighting with my MIL's dog to see who has the loudest voice.
as MIL did not cook dinner, we went down to Koufu foodcourt which was 1 block away. we order 'zhi char' and MIL drank beer with my HB at the same time. we finished our food ard 7plus n HB ordered some more beer. den MIL continued to chat with my mum. actually we want to leave at 8plus coz my nephew abit sian liao. but MIL said still early so we stayed on.
den suddenly MIL brought up the GDL matters to my mum. ask her wat she want for GDL, how much Pin Jin and tables. as our ballroom required min. 25 tables, we still got 19 tables balance after my mum asked for 6 tables. i told MIL i need abt 4-5 tables for my frens and she said i'll have to pay for it coz my mum oni want 6 tables. the way she said sounded like she gonna pay for our banquet leh... dunno true anot.
oh, my MIL also said she buying me SDJ leh, in white gold coz she said we youngsters dun like yellow gold. if she buy yellow gold and i dun wear is waste $, so she'll buy white gold.
not sure if she really will buy whole set of SDJ, but even 1 piece of white gold i also happy liao. coz HB last time told mi MIL will not buy mi anything leh. tink i can't trust HB too much when i ask him things regarding MIL, coz his info all not accurate one.
when HB went to the toilet, MIL complained dat my HB nv discussed with her on our wedding preparations. fm AD date to booking of venue. but she also said she's open minded, so will juz leave the decisions to us. *phew*
she den asked when is our food tasting session and also if the menu has cold-dish n shark-fin as the 1st two dishes. i told her our 1st dish is suckling pig n 2nd dish is shark fin. MIL said compulsory muz haf cold dish, so now we muz tell the banquet manager to change the suckling pig to cold dish liao.
the venue for tea ceremony also got change of plans. MIL actually wanted it to be at our nest. but now said the tea ceremony will be at HB's 4th uncle (FIL side) house located at sembawang. she had discussed with HB's 4th uncle when he came over for HB's grandma's wake. the decision to have it there was bcoz FIL side need to do ancestor praying. aiyo, the things are getting complicated.
