Talking abt clothes... My cousin is clearing out her wardrobe by passing loads of clothes that she cant wear to me.....
And the best part is, the min she passed the clothes to me. She went on a shopping spree to buy clothes. I will tell her abt the GG5 & Ness sale liao!
Waiting for the GSS also and see what things i can get for myself.....

Hi Kenshare
Yup yup, the indian stranger whom we met took the Mitsubishi Folio. Folio series all very nice!!
We were looking at F&P or Folio too. Cos they both seem reputable and look good. But didnt take either in the end. Folio is really way above our budget. Could have afford the Baby Folio but it's a tad too small for us =P
You may wonder why?? 2 of us only....somemore I cant cook...it's because we have 4 dogs and they take home-prepared meals!! Haha. We need ALOT of space to store the meat/organs/vege/supplements. 4 of them need 1kg of fresh meat per day, not including organ meat or the side dishes yet. And we tend to buy a variety like beef, lamb, pork, fish, duck to provide variety. I'm always fighting for fridge space with my mum now =P
If I remember correctly, for Mitsubishi fridges, only Folio series are still Japan Made. F&P I think it's New Zealand. There's another model from SHARP or something also still from Japan. The rest all from Malaysia or Thailand liao....
Our main worry was the rubber thingy may not be good for those non-japan made one. If you try to "slam" the doors, the sound makes a CLEAR DIFFRENCE between for the japan vs non japan. The salesman demo for us one. Look out for the trimmings....delicate VS rough workmanship too.
However, due to budget constraints but yet the need for a big enough fridge, we opted for a 3 door Mitsubishi which cost $799. Made in Thailand. It prob cost more usually cos I ordered from a neighbourhood store after seeing the model. The shop gives relatively good discounts for electrical appliances. I bought washing machine (Hitachi 12kg) from them too =)

Balcony? But they don't have live band leh.
Jeraldin, I think you can consider Bar None but maybe can give them a call to see if they're open to confirm.

happylife & lys: Don't lose too much weight... too thin, won't look a radiant & healthy bride! In fact, all my friends lost weight nearer to the wedding simply because there was so much to do!!!
CCK: You must be very thin!!! What's your height & weight?
For me, the AD is about 67 days away...will be mailing out my invites mid-next month.

Jeraldin>> guess I too late, but then I never been to a "live band" pub...hahaha. only "live singer" pub
curad>> depending on whether you have put down ur deposit (lvl of bargaining power) and how you nego with ur co-ordinator. wp has suggested most of the extras. Alternatively, you could do a search on our archives coz few mths back, we had a discussion on this topic

Smilez, i m luckier than u liao... I am very tired in my 1st trimester but i dun puke the next day if i dun hv enough rest. Try to get a nap during ur lunch time... It will help!
Smilez, just remember to avoid all types of cooling stuff... The rest of the food take in moderation, no raw food, no watermelon, no pineapple..... I even had ice cream and coke!
Anyway, ur in laws will understand that the tonics is for urself one lah...Cordyceps cannot mix with water one lah... Its one piece by itself one... The fatter it is, the more expensive it is. I bought 2 liangs in HK for SG$1K! Cordyceps is to bu the qi for the mummies.. Smilez, if u realised, do u get breathless easily than before?
If u re going to ur parents place, u can stay overnight there since now that u re pregnant. I also does that.

Hi gals,
haven't posted in a while. Less than 6 months more to our weddings ladies! So how's everyone coming along?
I actually haven't been doing much for the wedding, everything's about the house, shopping for furniture, curtains etc etc. I'm holding my ROM in July in my new house, on my roof. Now the big headache is thinking of how to decorate the place? Probably going to DIY cos all the florists want to charge min $300-$500.
I just settled on the design of my two gowns at Emmanuel B. So first fitting is end June. Crossing my fingers that they will turn out nice!!!! When is everyone's food tasting?

Hi Strawberry & Everafter,
When its my turn to be a bride, I also don't like the 酸甜苦辣 =x Cos it would be my hubby's big day too, I also want him to enjoy =) and besides, i prefer to hear him sing at the door than eat the spicy thingy and no voice =P
I've heard about a few couples who didn't have the 酸甜苦辣, instead they have "quests". There was one who ask the Groom & his 'troop' to go around the block to take photo with 10 neighbours.. and another placed those alpabet cubes forming the name of the bride around the block for them to treasure hunt.
Pity the photographer and videographer who have to carry the equipment and run along with the 'quest troop' though =p

Hi everyone!!! How's things going? just came back from my PS and super tired but it was really veri fun!!! Enjoyed myself a lot and the time seemed to breeze by. Now that it is over, I want to have it again!!!! 
P So gals, don't stress so much abt PS and just enjoy it!!!
We had like 4 days of non stop shoot with little rest coz of the travelling in between. Also, the PS session was also veri long. 1st day was for abt 8 hours (11-8+) and 2nd from 11-6. Think we took abt 1300+ photos in total!!!
Also did my photo selection already as my PG downloaded all the photos to us on the PS days itself so we could see the pics immediately. Veri efficient right? Hee..P Love my pics a lot and we selected abt 80 pages = 120+ pics!!! Will need to top up a lot so still thinking abt whether worth it or not. If we go for it, probably going to make 2 books.
