Hi everyone, thanks for the welcome back!!! Nice to be back and in touch with everyone again.

How come I am the only one busy??? Not fair!!! Never mind, later on when you people are stressed, I can just laugh... Hahaha...P
Drea, just remembered today that your ROM is coming. When is it exactly? Congrats in advance and thanks for all the help!!!
PL, where are you thinking of going for HM? Need any help/suggestions? Me thinking of part-timing as a travel agent coz I really enjoy helping people plan. Just finished my sister's HM and going onto mine but mine cannot book yet coz too far in advance so looking for other people to "help". Maybe I am too eng lah...P
Me planning to go US for abt 3-4 weeks so if you are thinking of going there, I can help. Europe is definitely something I am familiar with too. Japan is what FH wants to go so starting research on that too. Hm.. Sounds like I have pretty covered most destinations liao. Hee...
Anyone needs any help? I am super eng...P
Btw, talking abt si dian jin and stuff, what accessories are you gals having? I think I am trying too hard to match my accessories liao and think I might have overdone it.

Wah these few days have been busy at work, so I haven't read up on the forum. Thanks Jaslyn, for informing me about the outing tomorrow being postponed.
Wow Stary, you've really done your research on honeymoon destinations. I want to go Europe but hubby said might have financial constraint, so prefer Japan. Got any tips?
Junie, is Pin Jin = Bridal gifts? I dun really understand what is normally given for bridal gifts (roast pig & gold jewellery?). But on 11 Nov, we decided to have the food tasting and the Bridal Gifts. Stary, wouldn't your BS be lending you the matching accessories?

On Thurs lunch, I went to Simei to meet friends then we bought milk tea from Ah Mei Cafe. At about 2.30 pm, I suddenly felt dizzy. Turned out me and 2 girls who drank that milk tea got dizzy/nauseous. One girl even had to run to the toilet a few times and felt like vomitting! It sounds like food poisoning, isn't it? My reaction not so bad in comparison..only very dizzy for a few hours then ok again. But scary leh, I never want to buy milk tea from that place ever again!
Have a nice weekend, girls.

Agata, think the milk might not be fresh...luckily ur stomach still can take it :X

toking abt pinjin, my MIL already asking my mum how much $$ and also wat to get for GDL on tuesday liao.
like i said mentioned on tue, my MIL said she buying SDJ in white gold, but i dunno is whole set or oni bracelet.
my mum asked for the following:
PJ (oni requested for a token sum) <-- but i warned HB cannot be lesser den $1.2k coz my sis's MIL gave dat amount for PJ
6 tables at the banquet
liqour x 2bottles (red wine also accept)
oranges x 8 or 12?
pig trotter (in canned form) x 8 or 12?
butter cakes x 20boxes (might ask for more) <-- MIL said walnut cake better
dragon+phoenix candles x 1pair
not sure if i've missed out anything, but according to customs, my mum will return a part of each items.
Stary, so good can go long long HM. HB n mi will oni go HM if we make $$ fm our banquet.
Club Chinois has came out with new menus, so HB n i have decided to change our menu to the new one. gotta pay $10 more per table. basically coz my MIL dun like the old menu which has whole suckling pig as 1st dish. so hard to please both side.. MIL wans cold dish n my mum wans whole suckling pig.. heng the new menu has suckling pig+cold dish as the 1st dish, both side now beri happy liao

PL, so it is my fault now that I am trying to do too many things at 1 go??? Mean… P
You seem so organised on Japan. What is your rough itinerary and how many days are you spending where?
Agata, you might want to take tips from PL instead. She seems more clued in on Japan. I am just starting my research but will share any tips I have got.)
Also, I am not based in SG so I have no BS and am doing everything ala carte. So for my accessories, I am actually using my si dian jin and pressies from my family. I have got 3 different sets to go with my 3 gowns on AD but as for PS, I have 2 more gowns, I am thinking of getting 1 more crystal and 1 more pearl set. Not sure if I am overdoing it though and if it is a waste of money coz not using for AD. Unless someone wants to buy them over when I am done with them…P
Junie, no need pedi for PS lah. My PG even told me to wear snickers so that I will be more comfy. After all, under the long gowns, you can hardly see them. As for your short gown, when you wear your pretty shoes, the pedi will not show unless your PG really goes and take your legs or unless you intend to paint your nails some bright colour. Else just a nice mani will do…)
Agnes, can afford to go on long HM coz I have been saving hard and want a reward for being kuai and not spending on my bags/shoes/spas for the past few months!!!P
Your new menu also sounds good!!! I want suckling pig NOW!!!! Someone please ship them over… The hunt for suckling pig is on for this weekend...
Drea.. 27th April huh? That is the day I go for my final fitting for my gowns too before I ship off to Barcelona for a shopping trip!!! Tell you what... You trade your mei mei ROM pics with my chou chou fitting pics k?
